Fox News
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy detailed his disagreement with Elon Musk over the former DOGE head's proposal to fire air traffic controllers on "Pod Force One" on Wednesday.
"I think it might not have been intentional, might have been ham-handed by some of the requests that were made by DOGE, but my position was, we are not going to fire air traffic controllers," Duffy told the Post's Miranda Devine.
The secretary explained that the conversation took place before the tragic plane crash in Washington, D.C., that killed dozens in January, noting, "This was before DCA. Safety critical positions are not going to be fired within the Department of Transportation."
