Joe Biden’s nominee to head the FAA is a Democrat crony, is under investigation, and is thoroughly unqualified for the job.

This is a serious position where the lives of airplane passengers are at stake, and Biden is treating it like a patronage position.

Senator Ted Cruz of Texas laid it all out in a hearing.

Ted Cruz Chops up Biden’s Corruption-Plagued FAA Nominee

Ted Cruz is having himself a Wednesday, and the afternoon brought about another big hearing for the Texas senator.

Earlier in the day, Cruz grilled AG Merrick Garland, getting him to admit that the Biden administration was not enforcing the law fairly on a variety of fronts. Next up was the president’s nominee to lead the Federal Aviation Administration, Phil Washington.

Washington has a long history of working for far-left politicians, including Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. He also happens to be caught up in a corruption scandal that alleges he headed up a pay-to-play scandal, handing out $800,000 in no-bid contracts to a politically-tinged charity.

Still, the Biden administration has kept Washington as the nominee because absolutely nothing matters to the White House but pushing supposed “equity” within government agencies.

Whether you like Cruz or not, and I personally think he’s great, the man does his homework. For him to be able to jump from hearing to hearing like this on the same day and continue to just dominate on various topics is a skill, and it’s one that doesn’t come easily. The Texas senator is whip-smart, and he doesn’t suffer obfuscations and foolishness, both of which Washington attempted to dabble in during the exchange.

I am disappointed that the Biden administration has chosen an aviation safety position as a patronage job.

They’d rather play politics than keep Americans safe.

This is just like making ‘Mayor Pete’ the transportation secretary. The decision is not based on qualifications. It’s a political handout to a loyal party supporter.

Democrat Senator John Fetterman is currently under doctor’s care and being treated for ‘depression’ at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.

But he “sponsored” another bill from the hospital on Thursday.

This is one day after he ‘sponsored‘ a bill on Wednesday.

Sen. Fetterman joined @SenBrianSchatz, @SenatorBaldwin, @SenDuckworth, @SenatorDurbin, & @SenCortezMasto to cosponsor new legislation to help stop illegal child labor.

Cracking down on illegal child labor is absolutely common-sense.

Fetterman’s Chief of Staff blocked a reporter for daring to ask how Fetterman is able to ‘sponsor’ a bill while he is hospitalized.

Gisele appeared by her husband’s side after he had a massive stroke last May.

On Friday, I wasn’t feeling well, so I went to the hospital to get checked out.

I didn’t want to go – I didn’t think I had to – but @giselefetterman insisted, and as usual, she was right.

The good news is I’m feeling much better + I’m well on my way to a full recovery. pic.twitter.com/WQ5X6QgQen

However, Gisele abandoned Fetterman and took off to Canada after he was hospitalized a couple weeks ago.

Gisele abandoned her husband again on Thursday.

Instead of being by her husband’s side at Walter Reed in Bethesda, Gisele is in Braddock, Pennsylvania, according to the ‘location’ in her latest tweet.

Fetterman is in such bad shape that Pennsylvania Republicans are calling on him to appear on camera to prove he is “alive and well” or resign.

“Because of the now confirmed lies that were told during the 2022 general election regarding the health of Senator John Fetterman, as well as the threats made against a journalist who interviewed him, the Washington County Republican Party refuses to take assurances from the Office of the Senator or Democrat operatives that Fetterman is able to carry out his duties as Senator,” the Washington County Republican Party said in a Facebook post.

“As such, we call upon Senator Fetterman to appear on camera to show us he is alive and well, and if he is unable to do so, we call upon our elected Representatives in Washington, Senator Casey and Congressman Reschenthaler, to intervene immediately.” they said.

“Ultimately, if Fetterman is unable or unwilling to carry out his duties as a United States Senator, then we ask for his resignation and call for a special election to be held this year; no more lies or games.”
