It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a…falling plane?!
That seems to be the current trend.
All too often we’re seeing problems with planes lately.
With further investigation into the FAA, we’re starting to see at least one reason why.
You see, the FAA turned away 1,000 air traffic controller applicants due to its DEI policies, despite a staff shortage.
This came after American Airlines flight 5342 collided midair with a helicopter over Washington DC, killing 67.
Andrew Brigida, program manager, claims DEI hiring increased the likelihood of the crash.
The FAA switched to a ‘biographical assessment’ for hiring under Obama, ditching a skills-based system.
Amazing how Obama is still causing troubles for us to this day.
Brigida, a White man, says he was rejected based on race, despite acing the exam. The Establishment’s anti-White agenda seems to know no boundaries.
The lawsuit adds fuel to criticism, especially after President Trump blamed DEI hiring for Wednesday’s crash.
DEI is illegal, dangerous, and frankly stupid. https://t.co/p72gvfg6zP

Daily Mail reports:
The Federal Aviation Administration turned away 1,000 air traffic controller applicants due to its DEI policies despite a staff shortage, according to a lawsuit.
Complaints over the FAA’s hiring policies have resurfaced after American Airlines flight 5342 collided in midair with a helicopter over Washington DC, killing 67.
In a suit filed in 2015, lead plaintiff Andrew Brigida, 35, claims the agency’s obsession with DEI hiring was a catalyst in ensuring an accident was likely to happen – and reiterated this in an interview with The Telegraph on Thursday.
The FAA dropped a skills-based system for hiring air traffic controllers and instead based it on a ‘biographical assessment’ under the Obama administration.
Brigida, who is white, alleged that he was discriminated against based purely on his race and was the reason his application was knocked back.
The Arizona state graduate was turned down for a job with the agency even though he had passed his training exam with full marks, the suit claims.
The FAA has struggled in recent years with staffing issues following pandemic-era layoffs and has yet to fully recover.
The lawsuit only compounds mounting criticism on the agency, especially after President Trump blamed DEI hiring policies on the cause of Wednesday’s crash.
Brigida, who now works for the agency as a program manager, told The Telegraph that years of diversity hiring meant it was just a matter of time before a major accident happened.
It’s another “first!”

It’s not just Boeing we have to worry about when getting on an airplane.
Thank God this is all coming out now.

The DEI grift is over!
This is what Trump was referring to when he called out the FAA for their DEI hiring practices to hire people with “severe psychiatric and intellectual disabilities.”

Shouldn’t be too surprising who Biden picked to run the FAA.
REMINDER: Biden’s pick to lead the FAA was a DEI hire who couldn’t answer a single question about aviation. pic.twitter.com/Wpq27SSm9P
