In a recent statement on the social media platform X, newly appointed Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, serving under the Trump administration, officially announced that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is spearheading a project aimed at upgrading the nation’s aviation system. Duffy’s announcement, which he characterized as “big news,” has now become the center of a political sparring match after former Secretary of State and twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton publicly criticized the initiative and its youthful staffing. The ensuing exchange has drawn significant attention from political observers, industry experts, and the general public.
