Mike Whitaker, the FAA Chief confirmed under the previous administration was not fired, he resigned. https://www.npr.org/2024/12/12/nx-s1-5226796/faa-head-resign-mike-whitaker-january-boeing There is no evidence of threatened layoffs of air traffic controllers. There was some speculation that ATC were offered early retirement, but that has since been clarified. https://www.forbes.com/sites/suzannerowankelleher/2025/02/03/air-traffic-controllers-exempt-trump-buyout/
