The FAA grounded all domestic flights this week because they didn t have the time to update an outdated system. What are their priorities? Are they prioritizing racial equity, inclusion, income inequality, environmental justice, and climate change in the 2023 budget? Or are they focused on the NOTAM system, which is a 75-year-old system with no mention to airmen and women? I ll tell you what they did have time for, and it s not a good one. They re busy sending $130 billion to the Ukraine. These people aren t serious, and that s why it continues. I ll explain why, and why it s time for a new FAA chief, and how the Biden administration needs to fix this problem. I ll also explain why Pete Buttigieg should be the next FAA chief and why he s not qualified to run for the job, and what that means for the future of the country. And I ll give you my thoughts on why that s a bad idea. Tweet me if you have any thoughts or suggestions on how to fix the problem, and we ll talk about it in the next episode!

00:00:00.000Okay, guys, it's been a disastrous week for the Biden administration, and it wasn't just the garage gate.
00:00:06.000You had the FAA grounding all flights because the Department of Transportation didn't think to update like an almost 75-year-old system.
00:00:14.000But you know what they did have time for?
00:00:16.000This is the stuff I mentioned earlier in the week that I said I went going into.
00:00:21.000They had time to make sure that racial equity, inclusion, income inequality, environmental justice and climate change were part of the DOT and FAA's focus.
00:00:37.000So if you're surprised that the FAA systems went down this week, grounding all domestic flights, you shouldn't be, because it's clear where their priorities are.
00:00:49.000Remember, guys, there are no underserved communities when no one is served.
00:00:54.000That was all I read on Twitter, and they're 100% right.
00:02:16.000Pete Buttigieg is credibly qualified because he has a bunch of academic degrees.
00:02:20.000I go, well, what does that have to do?
00:02:21.000Is he a pilot? Does he understand anything about the FAA? Does he understand anything about transportation?
00:02:27.000Because all I know is that he's overseen disasters from a supply chain crisis.
00:02:33.000Okay? Then he was conveniently on paternity leave for, you know, because only 350 million Americans depended on him.
00:02:39.000Like, God forbid, maybe you show up anyway to the borderline train strike and the disaster that went on with that for weeks during a supply and chain crisis.
00:02:49.000Now the FAA. And that's what happens when you get qualified candidates and they're overlooked because you put in someone with academic credentials that checks off a bunch of woke boxes because he happens to be gay and no one cares.
