\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Summary: Former Port Authority Chairman oversees negotiations with airlines, including United Airlines, for landing fees at New York airports. United Airlines creates non-stop service between Newark and Columbia, SC that has only two weekly flights: Newark to Columbia on Thursdays and Columbia to Newark on Mondays. By a magical coincidence, the Chairman works in New Jersey from Monday to Wednesday and flies back home to Columbia on Thursdays and flies to Newark on Monday mornings. By another magical coincidence, the Chairman changes the date of the weekly meetings in New Jersey from Thursdays to Wednesdays. By a third magical coincidence, United Airlines cancels service to Columbia three days after the chairman resigns. http://www.northjersey.com/news/federal-subpoena-seeks-travel-records-of-former-port-authority-chairman-david-samson-1.1265692 http://www.northjersey.com/news/feds-contact-south-carolina-airport-officials-in-probe-tied-to-ex-port-authority-chairman-david-samson-1.1269309 Also: Port Authority board members also get to bypass airline check-ins, TSA and customs when they fly: http://www.northjersey.com/news/documents-four-port-authority-commissioners-flying-from-area-airports-given-special-treatment-1.1270440 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to NYS's governor's turn to nominate a crony, which is going to happen under the PA rules? How about focusing on the construct of the Port Authority itself, which isn't accountable to anyone and its whole being is rife for corruption and utter mismanagement that runaway government programs have a tendency to do? Idiot. Keep lapping up the good stuff that NYT peddles to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that being found not guilty matters to progressives unless your name is Bowe Bergdahl, but it bears mentioning for the those of you with DailyKos as your homepage.
