Looks like domestic air travel will very soon be a roll of the dice as to whether or not you make it there alive: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/faas-new-dei-hiring-quota-troublingAmericans were stunned on Sunday afternoon after Fox News reported the Federal Aviation Administration, overseen by Mayor Secretary Pete Buttigieg's Transporation Department, rolled out a new "Diversity and Inclusion" program to hire people with "severe intellectual disability" and "psychiatric disability" (among various other disabilities), just days after the latest mid-air near-disaster involving a Boeing 737 Max heightened the public's attention to the potentially deadly impact of woke Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies in the skies. "Targeted disabilities are those disabilities that the Federal government, as a matter of policy, has identified for special emphasis in recruitment and hiring," the FAA's website read.
"They include hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability, and dwarfism."The FAA's "diversity, equity, and inclusion" (DEI) hiring plan claims that "diversity is integral to achieving FAA's mission of ensuring safe and efficient travel across our nation and beyond." When satire becomes a reality... This development comes after a Boeing 737 Max 9 jetliner's door ripped off the plane while flying over Portland earlier this month. X users have said Boeing prioritizes DEI initiatives, which could jeopardize safety. "Do you want to fly in an airplane where they prioritized DEI hiring over your safety?" Elon Musk wrote on X last week. "That is actually happening."

Maybe they’ll hire some psychic’s to do their weather forecasts. 😜
I have no problem with hiring someone that has the right qualifications to do the job, though.

A not insignificant number of combat veterans have PTSD (psychiatric disability) or have missing extremities. I can’t believe there is an effort to higher people like this, they obviously have nothing left to offer an employer.

I thought something like that was already in place. The last time I visited the Seattle FSDO I was afraid the attendant would drop my certificate he had such limp wrists.

Pete is fully qualified for a top job in a Dem administration.
1. Mayor of a small midwestern town. 2. Gay 3. Married to a man
If Pete was straight, married to a woman, Biden wouldn't have given him the time of day.
