Do Americans know that other countries don't have this wierd "government shuts down if we don't pass a budget" thing?

  The ground stop was due to an aircraft emergency [0] and lifted within 21 minutes of being announced [1]. There are plenty of reasons to call out the shutdown, but using disinfo is the wrong method.

    Other ground delays due to ATC staffing issues, though. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ground-delays-issued-shortage-air-controllers-shutdown-continues-rcna241001 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ground-delays-issued-sh...

      Then post and report about that incident, not the JFK incident.

    As always, I had to scroll to the bottom of the comments for HN to be any semblance of useful.

      I'm still confused why he replied this to me though instead of making it a top level post.

        Your post was the top-level post initially.
