Clinton doesn’t know when to stop. She continues to meddle in politics even though most Americans are fine with her retiring for good.
And Hillary Clinton got sucker punched by a Trump official over this appalling social media post.
A heated exchange erupted between former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and newly confirmed Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy over the recent tragedy involving the plane crash at Reagan Washington National Airport.
Clinton took aim at Duffy and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has been tasked with modernizing aviation infrastructure, only to be met with a sharp response.
Duffy, addressing the crisis, announced that he had engaged with DOGE—a team largely composed of tech industry professionals—on efforts to revamp the nation’s aviation system. The decision to involve DOGE, a group known for its ties to entrepreneur Elon Musk, immediately drew criticism from Clinton.
“They have no relevant experience. Most of them aren’t old enough to rent a car. And you’re going to let them mess with airline safety that’s already deteriorated on your watch?” Clinton posted on X.
Duffy wasted no time in firing back, reminding Clinton that infrastructure issues had long predated his appointment as Secretary of Transportation.
“Madam Secretary, with all due respect, ‘experienced’ Washington bureaucrats are the reason our nation’s infrastructure is crumbling. You need to sit this one out,” Duffy retorted.
Clinton doubled down, linking the crisis to the MAGA movement, despite the fact that President Trump had only been in office for less than three weeks.
“US airlines had gone 16 years without fatal crashes. Then MAGA fired the FAA chief, gutted the Aviation Security Advisory Committee, and threatened air traffic controllers with layoffs. Now there have been two fatal crashes. Hope your unvetted 22-year-olds fix things fast,” she responded.
Duffy, undeterred, suggested Clinton was attempting to shift attention away from DOGE’s ongoing investigations into government waste and financial mismanagement.
“I know you’re lashing out because DOGE is uncovering your family’s obscene grifting via USAID, but I won’t let you lie and distort facts,” Duffy responded. “The FAA administrator announced he resigned over a month before Trump took office, and the air traffic controllers were always exempt from Trump’s civil service buyouts.”
He continued his takedown by criticizing the previous administration for prioritizing ideological projects over crucial infrastructure needs:
“The previous administration shamelessly used USDOT as a slush fund for the Green New Scam, throwing away money and resources on wasteful environmental and social justice projects rather than updating our nation’s antiquated air traffic control systems and other critical infrastructure.”
Duffy closed out the exchange by reinforcing his commitment to modernizing the transportation sector with fresh approaches and technological innovation.
“I’m returning this department to its mission of safety by using innovative technology in transportation and infrastructure. Your team had its chance and failed,” he stated. “We’re moving on without you because the American people want us to make America’s transportation system great again. And yes, we’re bringing the 22-year-olds with us.”
Next time, it would be in Hillary Clinton’s best interest to think before she posts nonsense on X.
