Had to stick this someplace. I saw a social media posting (X) that John Hinkley is opening a record store in the area.

A federal judge rejected aerospace company Boeing’s guilty plea deal in connection to multiple fatal Boeing 737 MAX crashes in part because of the deal’s diversity, equity, and inclusion provision that would have subjected an independent monitor of Boeing’s operations to DEI requirements.

Boeing entered a plea deal with the government in July following a Department of Justice investigation into two fatal wrecks that claimed the lives of 346 individuals. Negotiated in the terms of the deal was an up to $487 million fine and an agreement that would require a DOJ-selected independent monitor to oversee Boeing’s safety procedures for at least three years.

The DOJ said in the deal that it would honor its “commitment to diversity and inclusion” when selecting a monitor, a provision about which U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor asked to be briefed by the agency and Boeing in October. In his Wednesday ruling, Judge O’Connor cited concerns with a 2021 Biden administration order that would seemingly “encourage consideration of race in hiring” at federal agencies.

“In a case of this magnitude, it is in the utmost interest of justice that the public is confident this monitor selection is done based solely on competency,” O’Connor wrote.

The agreement is “not in the public interest,” the judge added, echoing criticisms made by relatives of the victims killed in the two plane crashes.

“Judge O’Connor’s emphatic rejection of the plea deal is an important victory,” Paul Cassell, a lawyer for some of the victims’ families, said in response to the ruling. “Judge O’Connor has recognized that this was a cozy deal between [the DOJ and Boeing] that failed to focus on the overriding concerns: holding Boeing accountable for its deadly crime and ensuring that nothing like this happens again in the future.”

Aviation giant Boeing “knowingly and willfully” conspired to defraud the U.S. by concealing pertinent information about the 737 MAX’s software systems, according to DOJ prosecutors. The two fatal crashes, a 2018 Lion Air flight and a 2019 Ethiopian Airlines flight, “exposed fraudulent and deceptive conduct by employees of one of the world’s leading commercial airplane manufacturers,” then-acting assistant attorney general David P. Burns of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division said in 2021.

UM has just upped the family income limit for in state students to receive free tuition to $125K.  That has more potential to increase diversity at the U than most of the money spent on additional internal DEI staffing.

Agreed

So when we remove birthright citizenship can we go by the mother? Because: Don Jr was born in 1977 Ivanka was born in 1981 Eric was born in 1984 Ivana became a US citizen in 1988. Barron was born in March 2006 Melania became a US citizen in July 2006. Trump’s entire family would be deported.

I love the idea of ending anchor babies (Both parents are illegals). Billions and billions saved right there. Plus will disincentivize border crossings. There are millions of kids living in Mexico getting check every month froom uncle sam.

It too bad there aren't enough adults running these programs that this even has to be considered anywhere.

Judge rejects the sale of Infowars to The Onion

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/judge-rejects-bankruptcy-sale-alex-jones-infowars-to-the-onion/

Quote

Lopez cited problems — but no wrongdoing — with the auction process. He said he did not want another auction and left it up to the trustee who oversaw the auction to determine the next steps.

Trustee Christopher Murray had defended The Onion's bid during the hearing.

"Only two people showed up to bid and…one was just better than the other," Murray testified, referring to The Onion. Asked how much better it was, he said "by a lot."

Although The Onion's cash offer was lower than that of First United American, it also included a pledge by many of the Sandy Hook families to forgo $750,000 of the auction proceeds due to them and give it to other creditors, providing the other creditors more money than they would receive under First United American's bid.
