In a country with the rule of law, employers can't generally take away these kind of things when they've promised them - this got Musk in to trouble when he made a generous severance offer in Europe and had to actually follow through on it.

In America? Who knows.

Were there air traffic controllers fired? I saw reports about some upper management at the faa and related, but haven't seen anything here.

Tbh I have no idea at this point. I read info he did fire people, but I'm seeing conflicting reports between his actions, intent, the deferred layoffs and later cancelation of the deferred layoffs.

It's all a twisted yarn:
