A woke Ford executive has posted a bizarre online rant detailing how he confronted an elderly plane passenger for watching Fox News on a flight. Barrett Evans, who works as the motor company's Chief Learning Officer according to his LinkedIn, posted a lengthy story about the incident on Threads. Writing on his profile 'chivalryandchampagne', the exec said: 'Elderly passenger on my flight from San Diego yesterday enjoyed Fox ‘News’ for the entire ride. 'Deplaning and I notice he and his wife getting into their airport wheelchairs to be pushed to next gate. My filter was malfunctioning…

Comments:

If Ford insists on paying weird whackos to represent them as "officers", the least we should expect is they require their idiots to stay away from airports, and to drive Fords.

Undoubtedly he was a DEI hire himself and took it personally. Ford better rein him in and make an example of him before they catch the ‘Bud Light Blight’.

There's something really familiar about this nut. Wasn't he in the news not long ago for some other airport rant? He needs to triple dose his TDS meds.

Funny...... airlines and airports were providing those services before DEI was a thing. They don't do it for DEI. They do it for customer service and their bottom line. DEI isn't about helping the elderly and disabled. It's about advancing preferred races at the expense of other races. What was he hoping to accomplish other that making himself feel morally superior? What was the point other than belittling senior citizens? I wish I had been there!

Airline services are NOT what DEI is about. It's about hiring people based on reasons other than competence. Looks like he's posing with his boyfriend. Yuk. Hired because he's a homosexual, it appears.

How DARE an elderly wheelchair bound individual watch the Worlds most popular cable news channel? Doesn't he know that 15th rated CNN is the only channel approved for Airports and Big Three Carmakers? ...As for the facility provided chair and chair pusher?.... That is because wheelchairs are NOT allowed aboard planes, except as checked baggage. Cannot go through TSA, I even had to check my crutches as baggage, and be delivered to and from my flights by chair and/or golfcart. Rental wheelchairs, scooters, e carts are available at your destinations...by PRIVATE companies, and are recommended by the airlines instead of checking your wheelchair.

Idiot. Nothing to do with DEI. If anything, it’s compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act requirements related to public accommodations. How does such a stupid man get to have such a big job at a big corporation? That is DEI.

Would be interesting to learn whether Barrett Evans would make the same accusation/complaint if the “elderly” couple had been watching ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC. Reality Check: If the “transport” jobs of assisting the elderly/infirm within an airport terminal are subsidized by passengers, passengers consist of conservatives, independents and liberals so the “cost of transport” is being borne by all passengers . Whether “elderly” in appearance or not, there is no way for “passengers” to know what medical problems the individual(s) being transported may have so passing judgment on them is disgusting and abhorrent. Most often airport employees doing the “transport” are given tips by grateful individuals needing such assistance and may, at times, find those tips to be quite generous.

Ford had better correct this. DEI has nothing to do with ADA provisions. But Weirdo is probably advocating for the wheelchair people to get to the baggage claim first. That’s DEI. I think Gord is in a heap of trouble.

What a dope. I’m pretty sure airlines don’t ask the color or sexual preference of customers before providing them with assistance. If Evans’ point is that homosexuals need extra consideration it is well to note that male homosexuals are among the wealthiest groups in the country. Every June tens or hundreds of thousands of them get obnoxious and parade down 5th Ave. in NYC and other major streets around the world luridly displaying sexual perversion and rebellion against God with no consequences. Activists like him don’t want simple human consideration they want superior status and celebration.

I've never bought a new car in my life.... couldn't stand the 30% resale value cut for driving the car off the lot. And my last three vehicles have been Fords. But after seeing that Ford has elevated DEI-inculcated morons to the executive level, I'm really glad now that I've never shelled out a dollar that has facilitated that kind of non-sense. And I may have to start buying foreign made brands now just to make sure I'm not paying DEI salaries.

Canada’s Liberal Party won a fourth consecutive election, giving a mandate to former central banker Mark Carney after a campaign in which he pledged to boost economic growth and stand up to US President Donald Trump in a trade war. Liberal candidates were leading or elected in 135 of the 343 seats, ahead of the Conservative Party with 88 as of 10:14 p.m. Ottawa time. The Liberals will secure enough seats to try to form a government, but it’s still unclear whether they’ll win a majority or be forced to work with other parties to pass legislation, according to projections from major TV networks.

As countries around the world try to bargain with US President Donald Trump over tariffs, longterm adversary Iran is pitching its sanctioned economy to him as an investment opportunity. With talks between Iran and the US over the Islamic Republic’s atomic activity showing signs of progress, top Iranian officials are for the first time in decades overtly promoting their economy to the White House to secure a lasting and more effective nuclear accord. If Trump wants a deal that’s better for the US than the one he jettisoned in 2018, the Iranians want the same for Iran.

A massive explosion and fire rocked a port Saturday in southern Iran purportedly linked to a shipment of a chemical ingredient used to make missile propellant, killing 18 people and injuring around 800 others. Helicopters and aircraft dumped water from the air on the raging fire through the night into Sunday morning at the Shahid Rajaei port. The explosion occurred just as Iran and the United States met Saturday in Oman for the third round of negotiations over Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear program.

The U.S. Department of Education announced Friday it has launched an investigation into the New York State Board of Regents to determine if the threat of withholding funds from schools with sports teams that continue to use Native American imagery and references violates civil rights laws. The announcement came after President Donald Trump took to social media to say the Massapequa school district should be allowed to keep its name and logo. The education department’s Office for Civil Rights will assess whether the state is discriminating against Native Americans on the basis of race and national origin by demanding Massapequa change the name and mascot of the "Chiefs" sports teams

The debate over parental rights and religious freedom returns to the Supreme Court this week in a case testing whether families have a right to pull their kids from public school lessons featuring LGBTQ+-themed books at odds with their religious beliefs. The lawsuit over storytime and books with titles such as “Uncle Bobby’s Wedding” and “Love, Violet” touches on the type of diversity and inclusion efforts the Trump administration has targeted on college campuses, and in government and private businesses. It is one of three major religious-rights cases on the Supreme Court’s docket this term.

The Democrat senator who traveled to El Salvador to meet with a deported illegal migrant and alleged MS-13 member was seen drinking what appeared to be margaritas, infuriating many online. Chris Van Hollen, the junior senator from Maryland, met Thursday in El Salvador with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man who was sent there by the Trump administration in March despite an immigration court order preventing his deportation. But it was his decision to sip margaritas with Abrego Garcia, as El Salvador´s President Nayib Bukele put it, that caused a wave of outrage.

The UK government is taking control of Chinese-owned British Steel after emergency legislation was rushed through Parliament in a single day. Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds told MPs the government's likely next step would be to nationalise the Scunthorpe plant, which employs 2,700 people. But he said he was forced to seek emergency powers to prevent owners Jingye shutting down its two blast furnaces, which would have ended primary steel production in the UK. MPs and peers were called back from their Easter holidays to debate the legislation in an extremely rare Saturday sitting of both houses of Parliament. It has now received Royal Assent after being passed

Ministers could send the Royal Navy to escort a fuel shipment to Scunthorpe’s blast furnaces after parliament voted to seize control of British Steel to ensure its survival. A senior source said the government was considering the extraordinary move to ensure the cargo reached the UK without being intercepted or redirected. The location and details of the cargo have not been confirmed but it is said to be coking coal — vital to keeping the furnaces running. Without securing fresh supplies, the furnaces at the steelworks, owned by the Chinese firm Jingye, would burn out and be almost impossible to turn back on. This would kill the UK’s last domestic source

It's a significant shift in policy for schools that had previously been considered “sensitive locations” to be insulated from such law enforcement activities, under a federal policy the Trump administration rescinded. The change comes as federal officials are revoking the visas of international students. Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, the University of Florida in Gainesville and the University of South Florida in Tampa are all seeking to deputize their campus police for immigration enforcement, representatives for the schools confirmed to The Associated Press.

Jeffries' controversial comments came during a staged protest on the steps of Congress, where he was initially joined by Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ/Sparta) and then accompanied by several other Democrats and their colleagues. This was by design, an attempt to make their "sit-in" appear to be an organic swelling of support—impressive in their own minds, much like Booker's fake 25-hour filibuster. Rev. William Barber joined the exercise in futility. He discussed putting “principles over party," triggering Jeffries to
