"This Plane Was Designed By Clowns, Who Are Supervised By Monkeys" - Shocking Boeing Emails Reveal Contempt For Management, FAA

 

We have never heard a more damning description of the relationship between a corporation and its regulators than a line that has been plucked from a batch of company emails that Boeing has just handed over to the FAA (and which the FAA has, apparently, leaked to the press). Per the New York Times: "This airplane is designed by clowns, who are in turn supervised by monkeys…" In recent weeks, a series of reports claiming Boeing neglected to turn over critical information to the FAA regarding the development of the 737 MAX 8, Boeing's new "workhorse" model that has been grounded around the world for the last 10 months, after a pair of suspicious crashes raised suspicions of possible flaws in the plane's anti-stall software.

 

According to more than 100 pages of internal company communications (which were apparently withheld from the FAA during the certification process for the jet) Boeing employees could be heard mocking federal rules, openly discussing their deception of regulators, and joking about the MAX's potential flaws. The most shocking messages were sent by Boeing pilots and other employees who can be seen discussing software issues and problems with the flight simulator software for hte MAX, which is particularly disturbing since it was issues with the plane's MCAS software that were found to have contributed to two avoidable crashes and the brutal deaths of 346 people. In one message, one Boeing employee openly admits to deceiving the FAA on behalf of the company. "I still haven’t been forgiven by God for the covering up I did last year," one of the employees said in messages from 2018, apparently in reference to interactions with the Federal Aviation Administration. In another, a group of Boeing test pilots agreed that they wouldn't want their families flying with pilots trained on the new Boeing 737 MAX 8 flight simulator. '"Would you put your family on a Max simulator trained aircraft? I wouldn’t," one employee said to a colleague in another exchange from 2018, before the first crash. "No," the colleague responded.'

 

As the New York Times explains, the release of these communications, both emails and instant messages, is "the latest embarrassing episode for Boeing in a crisis that has cost the company billions of dollars and wreaked havoc on the aviation industry across the globe." It should go without saying that these messages "threaten to complicate Boeing's relationship with the FAA" at a time when it's still unclear when the MAX might be cleared to fly again. Yet, as we mentioned above, this is only the latest and perhaps most jarring of a string of revelations citing internal documents and communications. Forget "regulatory capture" - a term that's often used to criticize the revolving-door nature of Wall Street compliance officials and the regulatory agencies supposed to keep their firms in line - this is regulatory irrelevance.

 

And any Boeing shareholders who experienced an escalating dread as they read this post - it's okay, you can relax. Because once again, the market just doesn't care. Plane crashes have been normalized in 2020, and so, apparently, has gross incompetence and contempt for both government regulators and the broader public.

Nancy Pelosi to Transmit Impeachment Articles to Senate Next Week

 

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told Democrats Friday that she was prepared to send the articles of impeachment passed by the House to the Senate for trial, despite a month-long delay to the process. The Speaker revealed her intentions in a letter to her Democrat colleagues and obtained by reporters. “I have asked Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler to be prepared to bring to the Floor next week a resolution to appoint managers and transmit articles of impeachment to the Senate,” Pelosi wrote in the letter. “I will be consulting with you at our Tuesday House Democratic Caucus meeting.”

 

Pelosi’s announcement marked a sudden reversal of her decision to delay the trial and try to force Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to commit to calling additional witnesses and evidence in the trial. Senate Democrats pressured Pelosi to drop her attempt to draw out concessions from McConnell, an idea that she reportedly got from watching CNN. Pelosi’s spokesman Drew Hamil confirmed on Twitter that the articles would be sent to the Senate next week.

State Department Releases More Clinton Emails Revealing Hillary Used Text Messaging For Official Government Business

 

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch revealed on Friday that the FBI magically “found” more Hillary Clinton emails transmitted on her private server. The new emails released by the State Department include classified material and the revelation that Hillary Clinton used text messaging for official government business. Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton called for the Trump Admin to appoint a special counsel to investigate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server while she was the head of the Department of State.

 

Recall, it was Judicial Watch who blew the story wide open about Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server after they sued for communications and records related to the Benghazi terrorist attack that left 4 Americans dead. Hillary Clinton transmitted classified information over her private server, including outing the name of a clandestine CIA agent. The FBI investigation into Hillary’s use of a private server was a sham from the beginning; the fix was in. Fired FBI Director James Comey and CI Chief Peter Strzok discussed charging Hillary Clinton, however, they changed the wording from “gross negligence” (a chargeable crime) to “extremely careless” (not a crime). Another sham investigation that was launched into Hillary Clinton in November of 2017 by John Huber, the US Attorney tapped by then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions has ended without criminal charges. Tom Fitton is right. Trump’s DOJ should appoint a special counsel and conduct a real investigation into Hillary Clinton’s criminal use of a private server which we all know was used to conceal her Clinton Foundation pay-to-play.
