NASA staff slam 'woke' DEI policies that cost Americans $22 million a year
2024-11-27
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] NASA staff have slammed the space agency for what they have described as a 'DEI takeover' that is compromising the 'real work' done by scientists.

One former employee said that NASA's focus on diversity, equality and inclusion is 'destroying America's ability to compete with China in space because the Biden-Harris administration will only fund programs that feature it.'

Several disgruntled members, speaking on condition of anonymity, blamed 'middle managers' for the 'bulls*** DEI policies.'

'The DEI thing can create an environment where things are not focused and accountability gets diluted,' another NASA employee, who still works at the agency, said.

'Real scientists don't give a hoot about DEI or other hyper-political c***.

'There are good scientists doing real, good work there. [NASA] has become extremely bureaucratic.'

NASA is spending $22.4 million per year on programs that involve inclusive hiring, employee resource groups and environmental justice research.

DailyMail.com uncovered millions of taxpayer dollars were spent on DEI data analytics and to help the agency 'embark on a venture to incorporate and deeply engrain diversity, inclusion, equity and accessibility in the culture and business.'

Once called 'the country club'.

"Now they want us to have projects and write reports and shit."
