Gothamist reports Gov. Kathy Hochul calling on Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy to resign or be fired after a telecommunications outage halted flights nationwide on Friday, leaving more than 7,500 canceled and 25,000 delayed by FlightAware's count. Duffy said an FAA contractor's fiber-optic switchover flooded the system's routers, and Hochul, also seeking a congressional investigation, says he has been focused on starring in his own reality show.
