Biden-Harris administration conditioned NASA research funding on DEI
Team Biden placed conditions on funding for NASA’s advance research. Funding for NASA research related to Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, and Medicine (STEMM) was conditioned on DEI requirements. Anna Krylov, originally from the USSR, warned about the negative consequences of this policy, indicating that these actions were similar to those implemented in the USSR.
From Fox News:
From day one, the Biden-Harris administration announced it would overhaul every single agency with the ideals of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). It ensured there were DEI bureaucracies in place to impose its agendas regularly.
Not only did the DEI mission affect training, internal policies and hiring, but also how federal agencies selectively funded and advanced scientific research, according to academics who spoke to Fox News Digital. They added that the DEI mandates are a risk to national security as it depletes America’s competitive edge against adversaries.
“This is a very, very bad idea. It’s corrupt, and it is corrupting,” Princeton professor Robert George told Fox News Digital, adding the DEI agenda “came on like gangbusters.”
“Our science has to be the best in the world,” he said. “If we are not in a position to defend ourselves and to deter that kind of aggression [from adversaries], we’re going to be very, very badly harmed. Our people are going to be very, very badly harmed.”
Those inclusion plans would then be scored, according to NASA’s Amanda L. Nahm, a program officer in the Planetary Science Division. She said that proposals which do not have the “inclusion” agenda will not be considered because they are “non-compliant proposals.”
When asked about the consequences of filling out a statement of refusal, she said, “it would not be reviewed well,” but then added that it wouldn’t affect the scientist’s merits of being given funds.
“At their core, inclusion plans are designed to raise awareness of barriers to creating and sustaining positive, inclusive working environments and to get proposers actively thinking about ways to foster inclusive practices for their research teams,” Nahm said.

Okay, now you have to employ scientific people who are able to calculate variables to the closest possible fractional denominator of the miniscule number of POTATO!
With Mr. Potato head teaching the course. One potato two potato three potatos more, your out., once twice three shoot.

An actual Nazi (and $300B in 2024 dollars) got us to the moon in the 1960s. DEI got us planes that can’t fly safely, one way spacecraft and imploding underwater vehicles. Not saying Nazis are better or even good but DEI hasn’t helped at all.
Nope. Your just pointing out what should be obvious.
DEI Bureaucrats are the Soviet Union-style commissars of the 21st century.

Certainly the richest and smartest.

It’s little early but SOB, here you go. My favorite whiskey sipping song.
Precision, urgency– you know, being effective and getting sh*t done– is “acting white” and should be eliminated there now:

I quit watching after the 10th time she said “UM”… If you want to sound stupid and have people discount what you’re saying, that’s a good way to go about it.. it’s often also a sign of lying, as it’s the brain taking a second to recall / construct the lie..
Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are the astronauts stranded on the ISS because they haven’t completed their DEI training.
Word.
DEI is probably WHY they are stranded in space.
Boeing product… notice how, interestingly, “better” ain’t said anywhere in this:
I like what Judge Jenine Piro said yesterday: “If it’s a Boeing, I’m not going.”
Both oddly unavailable for comment at the moment. Since both are working out of the country, look atall the taxes they don’t have to pay.
Hack Stone is all for dispatching the DEI hires to a remote planet for an extended period of time. In space no one can her you be triggered.
I’m not saying anything BUT, removing the urinals and making the 3rd floor Men’s room a “Gender netural” bathroom, even going so far as removing the urinals after they put bags over them and someone kept ripping them off and kept using them 😀 and then they put signs up to STOP THAT!! and then the just removed them oputright, SURE has improved the work space (no pun intended) around here. Yep, just a HUGE difference. YAY!!!!!!!

How does NASA have time for this?
