A post by @FirstSquawk on X.

US Transportation Secretary Duffy said communication and radar systems never experienced a complete blackout, addressing concerns about the reliability of the nation's air traffic infrastructure. The remark came via a First Squawk tweet and did not specify which systems or incidents prompted the clarification. The statement matters because radar and communications outages can disrupt flight operations and raise questions about infrastructure resilience. No further details on timing, scope, or affected facilities were provided. Watch for follow-up from the FAA or DOT for specifics on system performance and any incidents behind the comment.
