WASHINGTON DC (Yaakov M / VINnews) — At a Senate confirmation hearing this week, GOP Senator Ted Budd asked Phil Washington, President Biden’s nominee for Director of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), seven basic questions about aviation policy and related issues.

Humiliatingly, Washington went 0 for 7, failing to answer a single question correctly, and excusing himself several times by claiming he is “not a pilot”, even though he would oversee tens of thousands of pilots if confirmed.
It is well-known that Biden proudly announced he chose Kamala Harris and Ketanji Brown-Jackson because of their skin color, not qualifications. It would not be at all shocking if Washington was chosen by Biden because he is black.
If so, it would put our airspace in peril, by choosing a nominee for one of the most crucial positions in government, the person who keeps our skies safe, based on skin color rather than merit.
Budd tweeted a video of the questioning. He wrote: “I asked Biden’s nominee for FAA Administrator 7 basic questions about aviation policy. He went 0 for 7. We can’t have an FAA Administrator who needs on the job training.”
Just plain horrifying at the thought that his only qualification is the color of his skin for such a super sensitive job.
Clearly ANOTHER Affirmative action hiree like lloyd austin
The US has becomen third world country…
Justice Brown doesn’t know what a woman is since she’s not a biologict, this guy knows nothing about aviation since he’s not a pilot, they are all the same garbage a bunch of clowns.
What did you expect from a blithering idiot?
What do you mean who? Take your pick! Either of them qualifies.
What do you expect, for the Obamination puppet Biden. We all know who is the ventiloquist here and who is making this dummy talk.
Another disaster by the Obama puppet, just like the unqualified Scty of Transportation. We all know who the ventriloquist is and who is making this dummy speak
The FAA was established in 1958. There were 22 administrators since that time. At least six (6) were not pilots.
Justice Brown is highly qualified, a Harvard Law graduate, and a former Federal judge. Your points about this nominee for head of the FAA notwithstanding, the first sentence in your article was highly bigoted and implied that there was something untoward about Justice Brown’s fitness to be a Supreme Court Justice. You surely wouldn’t make that suggestion if Justice Brown had been born white – or Jewish. Shame on you!
