American and Delta Airlines were both part of the $25B bailout to the airline industry and both announced big layoffs today. What am I missing...?

@FlyingWithSara saw this coming months ago when Mnuchin was having friendly private meetings with the airlines regarding the regulations attached to the bailout.

Yes and I was under the impression that they were to use that money to pay their employees while they were not able to work because of the low demand for flights. So where did that money go and are they paying them even after they’re laid off? Good question

I don't know what you are missing, but they're missing their masks and their presence in the news as some of the real #looters who should concern the American public.

You're missing the part about how we need a brand new Party.

No I'm not. Just not until we get a new president. I know not everyone agrees with me, but for me denying him a second term is the top priority.

Delta announced early retirement option to all non pilot employees. No lay offs yet.

Money for top executives to gamble and vacation.
