Due to a massive outage in the Federal Aviation Administration’s system, thousands of flights this morning were grounded across the country. Thousands of Americans were stranded at airports and left waiting for their flights to be rescheduled. Meanwhile, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg had no explanation for the disaster.
To talk about the chaos, conservative political contributor Scottie Hughes joined Wake Up Memphis with host Ben Deeter Wednesday morning.
