Throughout 2023 and 2024, one of the major themes that I kept emphasizing was that a major disaster involving a commercial airliner was extremely likely to occur in the near future. There were simply too many close calls in the skies, happening far too often — particularly close to the ground — to come to any other conclusion.
Many of these mistakes were the result of failures by air traffic control and the FAA, which openly began discriminating against qualified white applicants during the Obama years. So when 2025 began with a low-altitude, mid-air collision at Washington’s Reagan airport, it wasn’t exactly a surprising development. The signs were all there. Everyone who was paying attention knew that a disaster like this would happen. And then it did.
