It's wierd seeing folks who have drunk the partisan koolaid commenting in defense of DoT and Pete dropping the ball. Pete isn't in the DoT to regulate; the man is in there to gain corporate donors for his election run, any fool can see that. He was told these issues were coming.

@secretarypete and @USDOT isn't going to do anything. If Buttigieg wants to maintain a political career, his best bet is to allow state AGs to hold airlines accountable. He doesn't get his precious hands dirty or lose their money but would still be seen as doing something.

You are bang on here, Medhi.

The whole thing looked planned for a long time! Every single person must be made whole‼️We won’t wait to see the right thing done. The longer this is ignored, the worse things will be for #Southwest

Exactly

Buttigieg did fine with the other airlines and just messed up with Southwest?

Will Butttigieg be just as hard in his FAA government types as he vows to be on Southwest Airlines? reuters.com/world/us/airline…

This is ridiculous and absurd for you to be obsessed with Secretary Pete. Get a life.

How? How is this not a vacuous, ad hominem attack? How is this actually a reasonable fucking question?
