In the midst of the dangerous air incident at Reagan National Airport, it’s important that we reassess our nation’s aircraft security requirements. Let me tell you, he is correct when he claims on Thursday that security standards have declined under Joe Biden.  ,

To illustrate this point, let’s look at his first nominee to lead the Federal Aviation Administration ( FAA ), Phil Washington.
Washington was subject to significant attention during his confirmation hearing because of his inability to understand important aircraft regulations. Washington had a difficult time supplying responses to a number of fundamental inquiries that one would anticipate from a candidate for the position of FAA executive. For instance, when asked about the airspace that requires an ADS-B transponder, Washington admitted,” Not sure I can answer that question right now” . ,
Sen. Ted Budd (R-N. C. ) pressed Washington on pressing pressing issues like the six different special use airspaces that are important for national security and the minimum separation distances between daytime landing and departure aircraft, as well as the factors that cause an aircraft to spin or stall.
Washington, acknowledging his lack of expertise, usually replied,” Senator, I’m hardly a pilot”. A candidate tasked with overseeing the regulatory model governing aircraft safety and operations was shown a disturbing disconnect by this admission.  ,
” Trump’s takes are unqualified”

A candidate who may not have the necessary skills to lead an organization responsible for the safety and effectiveness of America’s heat transit system was revealed at the hearing.  ,

The gentleman was unqualified. So why was he nominated? That will be clarified by this CNN statement regarding his candidacy:
Joe Biden’s nomination for president of the Federal Aviation Administration was made public by the White House on Wednesday. If confirmed, he would be the first Black continuous superintendent of the company.
Also, that clears things up, doesn’t it? Biden cared more about which variety checkboxes his contenders checked than their actual skills, as he did with so many other votes and meetings. Washington was for a poor choice that he withdrew his name from the list of candidates.  ,

The major media almost instantly attributed Trump’s role in the dangerous air motion at Reagan National Airport. Trump responded by implying that DEI policies at the FAA might have been a factor in Trump’s visible effort to rebel.
” I put safety first. Obama, Biden, and the Democrats put policy initially”, Trump said.
” The FAA’s site says they include hearing, vision, missing limbs, incomplete paralysis, full paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric illness, and dwarfism”, Trump pointed out. ” Excellent people have to be in those jobs”.

The remaining was livid over Trump’s says — which were really real. As we reported on Thursday, the FAA’s site did, in fact, state,” Because diversity is so important, FAA constantly supports and engages in a variety of associations, programs, coalitions, and initiatives to help and support employees from different communities and backgrounds. Our citizens are our power, and we take great care to invest in and value them accordingly.
The program was included in the FAA’s hiring program for” Diversity and Inclusion,” which stated that “diversity is essential to achieving FAA’s goal of ensuring safe and efficient journey across our nation and beyond.”
There is zero evidence that diversification for change’s sake makes heat go safer.
