President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order on Thursday authorizing an investigation into the DEI hiring practices and policies of the FAA. Employees who were not hired by merit or competency will be replaced. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller says the days of prioritizing anything but qualifications and merit are over.
He explains it all here. (WATCH)

Yes, there will be firings because undoubtedly people were hired to meet quotas. It’s insanity there's opposition to this and some who still want to cling to DEI.
Imagine, wanting competent people at the FAA, being “controversial”.

God help us.
That’s how far we’ve fallen

The opposition to merit based govt employment must be soundly defeated — as with deportations — lives depend on it
What has become of us? We are in deep, deep trouble.

The Trump administration is tasked with undoing all the damage President Joe Biden and the Democrats have done to all our federal institutions.
Thankfully, Trump is on the side of common sense.
Merit was dismissed as outdated, replaced by ‘equity’ and ‘representation.’ Concerns were ridiculed, while critical roles were filled based on anything but competence.

Ideology prioritized over public safety. Just can not have it.

Several commenters want Trump’s order for the FAA to be applied to all federal agencies.
This needs to be done at every single agency, not just the FAA.

But it's a start!
FACT! DHS, NASA, SBA, FEMA, USSS, FBI, the VA, EVERY Agency!

Correct. No matter how much the media howls.

‘Journalists’ and their fellow Democrats are sure to cry racism and sexism but Trump and his team must be merciless in ridding our institutions of DEI - our lives depend on it.
