The posting on X (ex-Twitter) are not fact checked at all. Naturelly that is where this administration posts updates

 In the old days (pre-Trump), US Government announcements were made:

  1. Via Presidential or Agency New conferences with all media outlets
  2. Via Press Release provided to a mailing list of media that signed up (the same I got information about off-Broadway plays)
  3. Via the government websites, where the new Press Release and archives are.
Going forward, all press releases for the NTSB - National Transportation Safety Board - will ONLY release updates on X (ex-twitter). X is owned by a Trump official (and all-round asshole), Elon Musk. X does not fact-check. It does not stop hate speech. Its algorithm - which is what is pushed to various people - is designed by Musk to highlight posts for the "right", true or not.

As the kids say, "Are you fucking kidding me?"

The NTSB has two public deadly accidents it is investigating now - the crash in Washington DC and the crash in Philadelphia. Trump has blamed both on DEI hires. The NTSB will only be releasing information on a private site without limitations on lies. hazzah

I’m in Steamboat Springs - most posting begins on Sunday

 However, I had to post this. Everything is kind of poopy now (see no curse words). So I take humor were I can.
