Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy recently criticized former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg in a social media post, accusing him of mismanagement during his tenure. The exchange occurred when Buttigieg raised questions about the firing of FAA personnel, prompting Duffy to respond with strong criticism.
Duffy claimed that Buttigieg had failed to address the air traffic controller shortage and modernize the outdated air traffic control system during his four-year term. In contrast, Duffy highlighted his administration's efforts to engage experts in improving the system within a short period.
