Why Are the Airlines Still Flying Out of New York?
"But do you know what the federal government is allowed to do — and, indeed, what the federal government already does? Regulate commercial air travel. Why is it not doing so here?"This is from the never-Trump National Review, so it's pretty shallow on perspective. You know who else can shut down flights? New York's communist Trump-hating mayor, Bill De Blasio. The Port Authority of New York City operates JFK and LaGuardia. Why won't you close the airports, Mr Mayor?
