Trump signed a collection of govt orders from the Oval Workplace on Thursday after a Blackhawk helicopter crashed into an American Airways airplane close to Reagan Airport on Wednesday night.
67 folks died after the 2 plane collided over the Potomac.
First responders pulled our bodies out of the icy Potomac river on Wednesday and Thursday. There have been no survivors.
President Trump on Thursday signed an Govt Order to analyze Joe Biden’s Range, Fairness and Inclusion (DEI) insurance policies after the DCA crash.
Trump’s new Govt Order mandates that solely essentially the most competent and certified persons are employed as air site visitors controllers.
New Appearing FAA administrator, Christopher Rocheleau and newly-confirmed Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy will probably be tasked with undoing Biden’s harmful FAA DEI insurance policies.
“We wish essentially the most competent folks, it doesn’t matter what race they’re,” Trump mentioned within the Oval Workplace on Thursday. “In the event that they don’t have a fantastic mind, a fantastic energy of the mind, they’re not going to be superb at what they do.”
