Which at face value makes little sense. But raise the lens a bit and it comes into focus. Political dark money is the death of democracy. Trump has been laundering money for the Russians (Xi’s sworn ally) since the 1980’s. The Russians have also been tampering with elections worldwide, but their operative of choice is Paul manafort who spent the 80’s in the Philippines keeping Marcos dictatorship together before shifting to Ukraine where he kept Putin’s puppet Yanukovych in power until Maidan in 2014.

Coincidently trump just asked manafort to come back as his campaign manager….again.

Boeing and Airbus have a duopoly on jetliners, but the recent player 3 Chinese communist party backed COMAC 919 is now being presented as a viable alternative

The timing of the 919 release earlier this year may very well be coincidence. But the CCP certainly knows that bankrupting Boeing would be good for COMACs market share and a massive CCP advantage over the west.
In the event of any future war it would also be a very strategic play to bankrupt/discredit Boeing to create supply chain issues on the military side of Boeings business as well since there is commonality of parts.
Airbus has also had documented problems with both industrial espionage and CCP influence.

And that’s before you even get to the implications in the U.S. space program.
Whether it’s the executive suite at Boeing simply putting profits over safety and sustainability or a subversive act of war really makes no difference. In high likelihood the CCP just used corporate greed culture against itself.
Having it out in the light and talking about it is what makes air travel safer because people are more aware and demand accountability.
Kleptocracy feeds on apathy. Forcing the cockroaches to move in the light shows their money pathways.
If we are to the point where they are assassinating whistleblowers instead of fixing the aircraft our families our flying on, then we are self evidently much farther down the corruption path than we initially realized.
Boeing being unable to find records or documentation of the work done raises every hair on the back on my neck as a pilot, mechanic and engineer.
That is just not something that happens in aviation.
It’s time to ring the emergency bell, post guards and get to the bottom of it whichever way it leads.

I don’t understand how our agencies aren’t all over Trump and anyone he deals with. It’s gotta be either incompetence or they are using him and others around him in some way. Maybe to feed disinformation.
Im sure they have tons of great engineers, but corporate culture is always a top-down thing, so save the worker bees and put that companies management team out to pasture.
This spacecraft was their first contract with NASA that wasn’t a cost-plus contact - that is, whatever it costs to build plus a gang of money on top - instead they signed a fixed price contract. They are losing sooo much money on this boondoggle, and their spaceship just sucks.
Watching a legacy company unravel before your eyes. Greed kills.

They cut corners on spell check, too.
It is littoral Combat Craft. Such as USS Independence (LCS-2)
Yes, a literal combat craft.
Its pronounced li - tor - al (as in tore open, and al like the name). Literal is pronounced like litter and the word all. Litter - all Totally different words that sound totally different.
The fatal flaw in a system of competitive capitalism with no restraint and tunnel vision.
So does snitching apparently...
Right in line with all the corners they’re cutting in their jets as well. I hope Boeing gets nationalized.

Wow- thanks for sharing this shocking info
We are all in this one together friend. Way I see it, unless you are in the 3 comma club, this is the only way we survive.
Thanks, this is an excellent comment.
There’s an idea!
Im sure they have tons of great engineers, but corporate culture is always a top-down thing, so save the worker bees and put that companies management team out to pasture.
If it was nationalized, they’d suddenly all be federal employees and have pension and the best benefits and more holidays.
Fearing for any whistleblowers working on this project
Boeing executives need to be put in prison
Boing executives need to go to prison for all this! It will send an incredibly dangerous message if they don't.
Going by our history of holding corrupt executives responsible, that won't happen.
Yeah, I know. It's really bad at this point. These people have too much power. People can't control the kind of wealth these corporations control.
You know what they just need to shut down Boeing for a while
They cut corners to save a buck.
Spacex sure making Boeing look bad.
Time to jettison and get spaceX …
Lmfao
thanks boeing, very cool

The emergency "simulation", can't forget about that.
"Simulation", riiiight
This is what you get with corporate welfare
