CNN host tried blaming Trump for the Black Hawk / plane crash

“Look, it’s January 29th. We are just nine days out from a presidential transition, an administrative transition. The FAA administrator resigned at the end of the Biden administration. So there is no permanent confirmed FAA administrator right now,” Phillip said. “This is going to be a time when there’s going to be a lot of public communication and a lot of investigation of what happened here,” she added, seemingly suggesting that the Trump Administration is to blame.

 

“What do you anticipate this transition period is going to mean for what happens today and tomorrow and in the coming days as we find out what happened here?” Phillip asked former Department of Transportation Inspector General Mary Schiavo, who later dismissed the suggestion. “Air traffic controllers do not come and go with the change of an administration … The politics of the situation should have had no impact whatsoever on air traffic controllers,” Schiavo said in a follow-up segment.
