Sean Duffy Fires Back at Hillary Clinton Over Criticism of Elon Musk’s Aviation Overhaul Team
A fiery online exchange has erupted between Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, centering on Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and its involvement in revamping the nation’s aviation infrastructure.
The spat began when Secretary Duffy announced that DOGE, under Musk’s leadership, would assist in modernizing aviation systems at the Department of Transportation. The decision follows two recent deadly plane crashes that occurred during Duffy’s early tenure.
Clinton responded sharply on social media platform X, claiming that the Transportation Department has deteriorated under Duffy’s leadership. She argued that DOGE personnel lacked the necessary expertise, mocking their youth:
“Most of them aren’t old enough to rent a car. And you’re going to let them mess with airline safety that’s already deteriorated on your watch?”
Duffy hit back, defending his decision and pointing fingers at past leadership, saying:
“It was the experienced Washington bureaucrats that let our infrastructure crumble in the first place. You need to sit this one out.”
The exchange escalated when Duffy accused the Clintons of misusing USAID funds, claiming DOGE had uncovered evidence of financial misconduct tied to both Bill and Hillary Clinton:
“I know you’re lashing out because DOGE is uncovering your family’s obscene grifting via USAID, but I won’t let you lie and distort facts.”
Duffy, a former Fox News host, emphasized that his department is prioritizing innovation and efficiency by working with non-traditional talent and cutting-edge technology:
“Your team had its chance and failed. We’re moving on without you because the American people want us to make America’s transportation system great again. And yes, we’re bringing the 22-year-olds with us.”
