1/x Houston Chronicle continues its role as Dem propagandist.

It says press spox “denied” it was bc of vax mandates, so OF COURSE that must be true (just like when the press believed denials re the Wuhan lab).

Here are FACTS, of which Chron is ignorant: chron.com/news/houston-t…

2/x (1) Last week, I met with the leaders of the major pilots unions. EVERY ONE expressed deep concern over the vaccine mandates & said LARGE NUMBERS OF PILOTS ARE QUITTING because of the mandates.

(2) The SWA Pilots Union is SUING to block the mandate: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

3/x FACT (3) My tweet also focused on air traffic controllers (which the Chron ignored).

Specifically, there are multiple reports of a shortage of controllers in Jacksonville (which impacted SW cancellation across the Eastern seaboard).

4/x Here’s what the COO of the Jacksonville Aviation Authority has said IN WRITING (explicitly noting that ATC shortages were caused in part by Covid vaccine absences):

5/x These are FACTS that @chron dishonest & partisan propaganda ignores.

And, if you believe the pilots unions, MANY MORE FLIGHT CANCELLATIONS ARE COMING (and not just SWA) because of Biden’s illegal vaccine mandate.
