Thats what the MSM/dems/teeth gnashers and cucked say. He's bringing to light the failures of our country front and center, knowing the MSM/Dems will go apeshite. For those with a brain, they see it and agree with him going after our failures...to fix them. No more kiddie toys and the gloves are off.

correct. even pete buttplug was a DEI hire.

remember what DEI stands for

D= anybody non white
E= we wont work for it or earn it by merit
I= LGBTQ group

buttplug fits the E and the I part of DEI

Do you all realize that this is an absolutely horrible look for all but the most devoted MAGA? You can’t possibly think this will earn him goodwill.


trump should talk about this 6 months from now when there is absolutely ZERO TV coverage or interest in fixing it.

I agree. The time and place in which you actually confirm the reason for the crash. He cannot resist feeding red meat to the base, but it is not warranted in this instance, at least yet.

It would stand to reason that hiring based on skin color or gender identity or sex, instead of standards and merit, would not in any way help


And you know this happened here because of what?

Thanks DEI!

Plenty of articles on this since 2012, not to mention the FAA's own website pre-Trump might be a clue.

But yeah, let's pretend the FAA was openly seeking out DEI candidates, actively refusing 3000+ qualified white candidates, yet NONE of this was ever practiced...

Idiot.

And if another crash happens before the investigation is complete?

Disagree. Some of the female pilots I’ve flown with in the Navy were top notch

From the study you linked:
quote:

The study found that females employed by major airlines had significantly higher accident rates than their male counterparts overall. However, female airline pilots, on average, were less experienced and much younger than males. Male pilot-error accidents were modeled using logistic regression, regressing on age, experience (total flying hours), risk exposure (flying hours in the last 6 months), and employer (major/non-major airline). The male model provided a good fit for female airline pilots as well as for males. After adjusting for variables included in the model, accident rates of males and females were not significantly different.

FAA turned away qualified air traffic controllers based solely on race

I would argue you should wait until the investigation is complete and if that could have factored into the root cause, call it out. Otherwise, you could end up looking like an arse.


Last night they said these types of investigations take up to 6 months. A lot of bad can happen in 6 months.

Irony of your statement since....

Contributing to the shortage, the FAA temporarily put the brakes on hiring in 2012 so it could replace race-blind hiring rules with a “Biographical Assessment” stratagem designed to hire more minorities.

I love how triggered the libtrards and cucktards are over this.

They would literally rather see dead bodies floating in the Potomac and raped girls with their throats slit* than a President who calls things out and gets shite done.

* referring to muh deportations, not this crash

This is so fricking stupid.Go to the actual FAA website and look at the job openings. Yes ATC jobs are open to those with disabilities but its depends on the disability. They may higher someone in a wheelchair for example The FAA is not hiring folks with down syndrome or epileptics as ATCs. The FAA has strict medical standards for air traffic controllers, and epilepsy is considered a disqualifying condition.

There are problems with DEI hiring practices.... lots of them, but just making up ridiculous bullshite like the FAA is hiring ATCs with severe intellectual disabilities isnt helping the matter . . If something like an ADHD diagnosis can disqualify an ATC applicant, a severe mental/ intellectual disability would obviously disqualify someone as well.

It doesn't matter if the ATC or anyone directly involved was DEI. it is a culture/resource issue.

The focus on DEI by Democrats, their administrations and their appointees is the problem. You can only have 1 first priority and with the Dems and their ilk it is/was DEI.

Attention and resources that could have gone to training, safety reviews, equipment etc. was focused on DEI. That is a problem.
