A reporter for NBC actually tied President Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE to the plane crash in Canada.
A Delta plane crash-landed on a snowy runway at Toronto Pearson Airport in Canada on Monday afternoon.
The flight arrived from Minneapolis when it crashed, landed, and flipped upside down. At least 15 people are injured, including one child.
It is unclear why the plane crashed.
There are no reports of fatalities.
The fake news media immediately tied the plane crash, which occurred in a foreign country, to Trump and DOGE.
NBC’s Tom Costello tied the crash to the Trump Administration’s staffing cuts even though the plane crash-landed in Toronto with Canadian air traffic control.
“I did want to, you know, underscore — to pick up on the conversation you were just having, though, in terms of the recent string of aviation incidents, Tom, this is gonna, yet again, raise the concern about FAA staffing — air traffic control staffing.
“Now, this is a Canadian air traffic control tower and this is under Canadian authority once it crosses the border. And yet, as you know, there has been this talk about maybe staff cuts at the FAA as a part of President Trump’s effort to trim down the federal workforce. And yet, as you also know, the FAA has been complaining for years that they are understaffed in critical job positions, especially air traffic control. I was having a conversation with somebody today about whether air traffic control in America is being affected by the staff cuts,” Tom Costello said.
Costello actually suggested that all of the plane crashes and close calls are Trump’s fault even though he has only been in office for a few weeks.
He continued, “So far, not to their knowledge, and yet other positions related to maintaining critical equipment appeared to have been cut, so this is going to feed into all of these recent incidents and the safety of — of the total air traffic system is going to be very much a part of the conversation as we go forward, at least on the side of the country of the border, I should say.”

It was reported earlier that the Trump Administration fired approximately 300 Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) employees over the weekend as DOGE works to eliminate DEI and wasteful spending.
