she seems to be laughing and later on crying at inappropriate times. Those are also symptoms of a stroke or TIA.

Do you have a source for that?

Save precious time - know and respond quickly to the warning signs of stroke:

Most of us have headaches or clumsy spells now and then. But the symptoms of stroke will seem unusual and come on suddenly. Call 911 if you or someone you’re with notices these unexplained, sudden warning signs:

A feeling of numbness or weakness in your face, arm, or leg (You might notice it on one side more than the other.)
Vision problems in one or both eyes
Dizziness or loss of balance; difficulty walking
Confusion
Problems speaking or understanding what other people are saying
Severe headaches without warning or explanation

Women may have the same symptoms as men, but they’ve also reported a few others. These symptoms also happen suddenly and unexpectedly:

Pains in the face or legs
Hiccups
Nausea
Feeling weak all over
Chest pain
Shortness of breath
Rapid heart b

Apparently not a stroke. And yes, she was fired.

There was quite a bit more information about the alleged situation and the FAA security bulletin on the heavily moderated subreddit a few hours ago.

Also, some relevant moderated discussion at pointsixtyfive.com

My guess, the FAA will go quiet, call this a private personnel matter and hope the media and NTSB don't pursue it further.

Or, the federal assistant attorney general. Lack of enforcement constitutes corruption.
