On Thursday, as he was addressing the nation about the deadly collision that occurred near Reagan National Airport, President Donald Trump brought up concerns about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) when it comes to the crash. While he was given plenty of hate for it, including by former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, he had some backup as well, including from Vice President JD Vance.
“Thank you Mr. President for your leadership. I just want to re-emphasize what the President said and you’ve heard from the Secretary of Transportation and of Defense. There really was a whole government response, we were all on the phone, we were all communicating yesterday trying to get to the bottom of this immediately but also try to communicate with the American people about what happened,” he began.
Whether one loves or hates Trump and Vance’s remarks, it was already an improvement that they were there to address the nation so quickly, unlike what we know what would have happened had this tragedy occurred during the Biden-Harris administration.
Vance also got to explaining more issues with DEI. “Something the President said that I think bears re-emphasizing, which is that when you don’t have the best standards in who you’re hiring it means on the one hand you’re not getting the best people in government, but on the other hand it puts stresses on the people who are already there,” he continued. Sure enough, the control tower at this particularly busy airport had one person doing the work of two people.
“And I think that is a core part of what President Trump is going to bring and has already brought to Washington DC–is we want to hire the best people because we want the best people at air traffic control and we want to make sure we have enough people at air traffic control who are actually competent to do the job,” Vance shared. “If you go back to just some of the headlines over the past 10 years you have many hundreds of people suing the government because they would like to be air traffic controllers but they were turned away because of the color of their skin. That policy ends under Donald Trump’s leadership because safety is the first priority of our aviation industry.” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
