Thousands of journalists at traditional newspapers are losing their jobs — and so are thousands of their successors at online-only "new media" outlets.

When you fly, do you care more about the race of the pilot, or whether they can land the plane? This is anything but a simple question for the left, which has pressured airline executives into promising 50% quotas for women and black people as pilots. Charlie expands upon his viral thoughts on this topic, making the obvious yet unspeakable point: We can have merit, or DEI, but not both. Former FAA safety expert Kyle Bailey joins in, and Rep.
