As we told you over the weekend, Spirit Airlines went out of business and immediately a two year old post from Sen. Elizabeth Warren bragging about a "Biden win for flyers" aged itself into dust. That "win" was the Biden administration, with much encouragement from Warren, suing to prevent JetBlue from buying Spirit:
I've warned for months that a @JetBlue-@SpiritAirlines merger would have led to fewer flights and higher fares.@JusticeATR and @USDOT were right to stand up for consumers and fight against runaway airline consolidation.

This is a Biden win for flyers! https://t.co/lJFGS3ucv3
As it turns out, that wasn't the only take from Warren to be nominated for induction into the "this aged horribly" hall of fame:
Oh, look. She did it more than once.

This was two months before her infamous March post calling the merger block a "Biden win for flyers." https://t.co/my2ykbZamP
Warren was again bragging about solving the "reduced options for flyers" problem by helping drive an entire airline out of business:
This anticompetitive airline deal would have increased prices and reduced options for flyers. Even a Reagan-appointed federal judge agreed!

A major win by @JusticeATR Kanter & @MassAGO Campbell & further evidence of successful antitrust enforcement by the Biden administration. https://t.co/TArpoZNXS6
Give yourself a round of applause, senator!
Way to go chief. Now 14,000 people are out of a job.

Way to go, Liz!
And she wouldn't be Elizabeth Warren if she didn't try and blame Trump and the Republicans:
Spiking fuel prices from Trump’s war was the nail in the coffin for twice-bankrupted Spirit airline.

FWIW, JetBlue merger failed because a judge, appointed by Ronald Reagan, said the deal was illegal.
Republicans are desperate to shift blame from higher costs hitting families.
The Community Notes on Warren's Spirit Airlines blame games are things of beauty.
