The Federal Aviation Administration’s air traffic control system is running on borrowed time—and your safety is at risk. Shocking new reports reveal the agency is scrounging eBay for outdated parts just to keep planes in the air. This isn’t just embarrassing—it’s a national disgrace.
Internal documents show critical systems still rely on 1950s-era technology, including floppy disks and radar older than most pilots. While the Biden administration wasted $1.2 trillion on “infrastructure,” they left controllers using computers from the Commodore 64 era. Our skies are being managed by museum pieces.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy dropped a bombshell: The FAA can’t even buy new parts anymore. They’re forced to raid online auctions for secondhand junk. This isn’t innovation—it’s a ticking time bomb. Remember the nationwide ground stop in 2023? That collapse was just the beginning.
United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby testified about the chaos at Newark Airport, where systems failed spectacularly. Meanwhile, Pete Buttigieg’s department ignored repeated warnings. Our leaders are asleep at the wheel while Americans board planes held together by eBay scraps and duct tape.
Senator Ted Cruz exposed the truth: These ancient systems were outdated decades ago. The FAA’s own reports admit they’re “throttling down” air traffic to hide the rot. This isn’t about money—it’s about failed leadership prioritizing woke policies over basic competence.
While China modernizes its aviation tech, America’s controllers juggle equipment older than Elvis records. The same bureaucrats pushing green energy mandates can’t even keep 70-year-old radar running. Our enemies must be laughing as we play Russian roulette with passenger safety.
This crisis proves why conservative oversight matters. The Biden administration ignored this mess for years, diverting funds to pet projects instead of protecting travelers. It’s time to ground the bloated federal bureaucracy and put Americans’ security first.
Next News Network is exposing what the mainstream media hides: Our skies are a disaster waiting to happen. Support independent journalism that fights for truth, not cover-ups. Together, we’ll hold these failed elites accountable—before the next system failure costs lives.
