Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy clashed with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton online after she criticized his decision to involve Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in upgrading aviation systems following deadly plane crashes,
Clinton claimed DOGE staff lacked relevant experience, mocking their youth and blaming Duffy for deteriorating safety. Duffy fired back, blaming “experienced Washington bureaucrats” for infrastructure failures and accusing the Clintons of “grifting” via USAID—claims uncovered by Musk’s team.Duffy defended using innovative technology to improve transportation, vowing to restore aviation safety and hold companies like Boeing and Tesla accountable.
