FAA Academy in Oklahoma struggled due to DEI quotas
 
Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., told "Fox News Live" Saturday that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Academy in Oklahoma has struggled to fill classrooms due to DEI quotas.

"Where the FAA air traffic controllers get trained is right here inside of Oklahoma, in Oklahoma City," Mullin said. "That's their training hub and I will tell you we were having a hard time filling the classes because of DEI."
 
Flight safety has become a topic of debate this week after an American Airlines plane and an Army helicopter collided outside Reagan National Airport on Wednesday. Two days later on Friday, a medical jet crashed on a street near the Roosevelt Mall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Unfortunately this problem exists far outside the FAA. In fact, it has become a part of our culture since LBJ began it in 1965 and fixing it will be neither quick or easy.

Unfortunately, it will be made harder by a great number of low-level federal employees who have their jobs because of DEI, and the large numbers of liberals, who are basically unaccountable for their actions.

Every organization in this country is now full of people (many second and third generation) who are where they are simply because they checked the right boxes, and those people tend to surround themselves with people wo do not pose any threat to them. That is going to take a concerted effort to fix.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The "goal" of DEI was not only to bring it more minorities, LGBQT, or whatever.

It was also specifically to KEEP OUT white males.

Even if that meant many available seats going empty.
