Steve Schmidt's Substack post attacks the Trump administration's response to a nationwide FAA ground stop that disrupted thousands of flights, mocking Sean Duffy's and Markwayne Mullin's press conference as political theater while questioning Duffy's $50 billion ask and the FAA's contract and possible ownership stake in Air Space Intelligence. He also targets Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over the loss of measles elimination status, calls Hegseth's Tomb of the Unknown Soldier visit disgraceful, backs Van Hollen's challenge to Schumer, and forecasts two frightening years ahead.
