If I were a passenger on one of these flights I’d spend part of the no-doubt long delay inviting my fellow passengers to provide contact information for a civil suit against the arsehole in question. Having him cough up compensation for the airfare, lost time, and pain and suffering of every other passenger on the flight would be a nice six-figure complement to however many years he or she gets for breaking federal laws.
Also: almost tripling the previous 25-year record of 310 FAA investigations to 923 tells us that the MAGAts and Qnuts are as intent on disrupting travel as they are on disrupting liberal democratic institutions.
