"...At the end of the meeting, after saying that he would not authorize any manned tests of Titan without a scan of the hull, Lochridge was fired and escorted from the building..."

If true, not just idiotically woke, but damned stupid and incompetent too.

Funny I didn’t see him giving up his job to a woman or a minority. Probably would have saved his life had he done so.

“not certified by any government or agency”

Is there even a requirement for that? I suspect there is very little if any oversight or certification requirements at all....what could go wrong? It has.

Any government spending a dime to retrieve whatever is left of these unfortunate souls is crazy.

That single statement pretty much summarizes the whole of the Democrat mindset of today. Appearance. Marketing. Messaging.

Damn the torpedoes, care for the pedos!

So he’s a 61-year-old White guy who refuses to hire 50-year-old White guys? Shouldn’t he have quit? Or is it specifically 50-year-olds who are the problem and not anyone older or younger? Being woke is so confusing. While I hope they are rescued because I have a basic respect for human life, he makes it difficult to be concerned.
