Anecdote



Trump blames diversity hiring for Washington plane crash that killed 67

Donald Trump has blamed a diversity hiring spree for causing the deadly crash between a military helicopter and a passenger plane that killed 67 people in Washington DC.


This is not a comment on this horrific disaster, but it reminds me of an interesting article I read a few years ago. I don't have a link either, so it's merely an anecdote which may have no bearing on this particular accident.

The article was by an FAA insider. It went into specific details about problems with DEI hiring policies for air traffic control staff, saying that these policies would eventually lead to a major accident.
