Why stop there? There should be no white male pilots that are allowed to fly into the airport. No white male traffic controllers, etc.
I’ll never fly again

The amount of tax paid by non- white people is so low it's statistically irrelevant.

This doesn’t make any sense.

Any wealthy white person still living in NYC, Cali or Chicago are fricking idiots
They deserve the abuse.

It’s good, though, when they do something so brazenly wrong because that might wake a few people up so they can see the million little wrongs like this that happen every day.

What, you want another uniparty swamp creature?
Trump is a democrat from 30 years ago with some modern views. He kicked over the DC apple cart and that's why they are cheating so bad to take him down.
If you can vote for Biden because you believe the caricature they've made trump into...well, that's on you

I wonder how the media and police would respond to White Lives Matter protests?

So they're giving $2.3B to non-White and women-owned businesses during the remodeling of JFK but will there be an official website that will show exactly how this money will be used or will someone just cash the check put up a storefront that will only be around for 3-6 months then file for bankruptcy?

City of New Orleans says Hold My Beer.....they require 36% DBE participation on EVERY project that is publicly let. It is comical how this plays out in real life. many are black/hispanic that are simply "run-throughs". Some do actual work, but too many are simply paper pushers for 10-15%. A handful are white guys that have a business in their wife's name. Now, take a guess whose jobsites gets visited and critiqued to verify that they are actually earning the set aside?
The joint venture that built the new airport even showed the city the numbers listing out how much money could be saved by NOT using DBE people....city said no. and, in the end, there was not enough money to properly complete the project.
As was stated, the feds do the same thing, a lesser %, on all kinds of jobs.
all of that to say that the white liberal is the most useless individual in this world. if you cannot see what is being done, albeit at a very slow pace, then i do not know what to say to you.

Can't wait for the Moderates to come in and let us know why all of this is awesome and you are a racist for pointing out how wasteful it is.
Idiocracy is here, and the Democrat party has ushered it in at Warp Speed. Like the other poster in this thread, I too voted Democrat, but I woke up in 2008.

Period. End of story.
If OP owned a set of balls, he would come here and admit that a) the tweet was misleading, and b) he didn’t verify his claim before posting.
Of course that won’t happen. And the rest of the tards here are going to ignore these facts as well. Just read the replies from the crayon eaters.
You've no idea what you're talking about: the federal government contracting space is a traveling side show of incompetence, and I'll tell you what will happen, because it happens all the time on every sizable government contract: Bill the white guy who knows his shite will create a subsidiary, put Monique the black woman as the majority owner on paper and work a deal out where she gets a check for doing nothing, then get the set-aside contract. Alternatively, Wanda, who's a white woman, gets the contract, can't perform, makes out with her share, then the government is back at square one hiring Carlos the 3rd generation Mexican building contractor who gets the job done because he knows his shite. Now extrapolate that out across billions, and you've got a project falling behind the deadline and budget like government contracts always do.
You're living in democrat dream land if you think it's cut and dry and "equitable," and everything is hunky-dory. There's massive amounts of fraud going on when these type numbers are being doled out. This is what politicians do: pat themselves on the back for spending our money on what they know will be shitshows, and plebs like you eat it up and never pay attention to it ever again. There are tens of thousands of millionaires who do nothing but work the government contracting circuit, bilking millions out of the incompetence of sorry arse bureaucrats, and we pay for it.

The grant does not outlaw contracts to white male businesses.
There is a lot of hype connected with the contracts that is centered around women and minority businesses. There is a lot of big talk (see link below) but there is no ban and there are some "white male businesses" with contracts.
The speech maker quoted is an idiot. I also think the contracts to minority and women contractors are often discriminatorily granted. But, there was no ban.
Record Minority/Women Contracts

riddle me this….
how often has your Leftist corporate media admitted: a) the article was misleading, and b) they didn’t verify their claim before posting.
never? stop crying

set asides for women and minority contractors have been going on for decades now, they weren't as flagrant/blatantly racist as this at their inception though
Posted on 5/8/24 at 9:42 am to tiggerthetooth
I'm legitimately curious what kind of legal standing I have being a resident of another state. This is blatant discrimination.
