While republicans are generally shit and mostly known for crap like this, unfortunately this was a bipartisan fuckup (accepting bribes from Delta that is)…
Excerpted below:

Delta’s political action committee was also among the top contributors to the bill’s cosponsor, Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA)”

Eh, they blamed Biden and Obama for tons of shit that has nothing to do with them. What goes around is all around.
Also this is a literal flaming example of the kind of world an underfunded and cancelled agency US will look like.
