In February 2023, a firehouse of information has come out regarding the FAA going out of its way to force diversity quotas in the cockpit and control towers https://www.faa.gov/newsroom/faa-launches-be-atc-campaign-recruit-next-diverse-generation-air-traffic-controllers under the guise of Equity Social and Governance or ESG as well as Diversity, Equity and Inclusion or DEI.https://twitter.com/FAANews/status/1564339440994189314 on the February 14, 2023 edition of Tucker Carlson Tonight with the FAA and airlines pushing hard to put ESG category pilots straight out of high school with little to no aviation experience or even ambition into the flight decks of airliners in the name of equity, https://twitter.com/TuckerCarlson/status/1625672140912488450 Tucker Carlson further elaborate that on Feb 22, 2023 stated that the DEI pilot on the Atlas Air crash in Houston in 2019 was a terrible pilot but was hired due to DEI policies of Atlas's client Amazon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBzc0xoUDKg backed up https://next.thehhp.net/index.php/s/7LeSCLWiAyTXKWA
That pilot in spite of his terrible safety record did not have to take the Cogscreen. This further points out that AAM-300 is violating the 14th Amendment equal protection clause and as will be demonstrated in this narrative, it seems that the only pilots that are getting tagged with ADHD and forced to take the Cogscreen are white males. The FAA is using the ADHD tag as an act of discrimination that is essentially a cover for racism in order to force ESG/DEI pilots into the cockpit in place of white males to meet an equity quota that even the NY Times admits no one asked for https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/23/business/pilots-diversity.html. The recent publications only during the past few years by the FAA show this is a recent crackdown inspite of what FAA medical states. The statistics do not lie, pilots tagged with ADHD are some of the safest trained https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28818147/ 99.82% unlikely for that demographic of pilots to be involved in an aviation accident. It's time to let the safest pilots have their unrestricted medicals back without any strings attached and to put these mental health quacks cottage industry of holding pilots hostage out of business.
This type of forced equity at the expense of safety would have only gotten worse under President Joe Biden's original nominee to the FAA Administrator Phil Washington. Washington was labeled as "unqualified to lead the FAA" by Senate Transportation Ranking Member Senator Ted Cruz https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/sen-ted-cruz-calls-biden-faa-nominee-unqualified-says-white-house-playing-politics-safety The Fox News article further elaborated that, Washington's confirmation has been further stalled by allegations of discriminatory and retaliatory practices by Washington at Denver International Airport where he was CEO at the time of his nomination, and his involvement with a corruption investigation at LA Metro. Washington is so unqualified for the job of FAA Administrator he could not answer a single question from Senator Ted Budd. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/03/watch-biden-faa-nominee-cant-answer-single-question-aviation-republican-senator/ Questions that pilots would need to answer correctly to pass even a basic private pilot checkride. https://twitter.com/SenTedBuddNC/status/1631053342314049536 Phil Washington is clueless as to what BasicMed is or even simple aviation safety questions.
the inmates would have continued to run the asylum if Phil Washington's nomination to be FAA Administrator was confirmed. The near collision on the runway at Austin Bergstrom International Airport of a landing aircraft with an aircraft set to take off was blamed on an Air Traffic Controller https://www.kvue.com/article/travel/austin-close-call-2023-ntsp-air-traffic-controller/269-c525224a-8386-4f06-89ff-cdf51c233f09 identified as Damian Campbell https://cbsaustin.com/news/local/safety-officials-release-details-of-their-investigation-into-a-close-call-between-planes-in-texas who is DEI https://www.linkedin.com/in/damian-c-24a58540/ Evidence points to John Matthew Fabian having medicals of non DEI controllers revoked to give that slot to Campbell.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11628753/FAA-flight-grounding-debacle-stranded-tens-thousands-hours-caused-engineer.html Makes anyone question any of the decades old computer code the FAA uses, including the secretive propriety code for the Cogscreen which cannot be emphasized enough dates back to 1987. Sen Ted Cruz who is taking the top GOP position on the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee in the new Congress, said in a statement January 11, 2023 that the FAA failures exhibit the larger 'dysfunction' within the Department of Transportation under Secretary Pete Buttigieg. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11628749/How-FAA-running-without-Senate-appointed-administrator-YEAR.html In fact the FAA knew about the obsolete code in the NOTAM system since 2018 https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2023/01/14/gop-rep-garbarino-faa-was-warned-about-notam-system-in-2018/ but was only concerned with changing enough code to stratify a woke equity agenda to change the name and not fix the underlying problems that made the system vulnerable to collapse either by in house coding mistakes or worse, an outside cyber attack. Tucker Carlson on January 17, 2023 said that the coding error by an in house FAA software engineer could have been coverup for a ransomware attack on NOTOM systems in multiple countries including the FAA only to be released upon payment of an undisclosed amount of Bitcoin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoPvl6iUWx0 Meanwhile , when Nolan was asked by Senator JD Vance said "he would have to give some more thought" on the elimination of the word "wife." Senator Vance that further elaborates his concerns that the FAA is more concerned with the gender terms than with the crumbling aviation infrastructure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNBpfOtNk0 This type of corruption and outright incompetence will continue if Congress does not bake in reforms into the 2023 FAA Reauthorization Act including Aeromedical Reform.
It cannot be emphasized enough that this type of dysfunction, coverup and self-serving bias however isn't anything new at the FAA and the same thing is happening in AAM-300 which also needs to have the same spotlight shined by congress exposing the type of malfeasance. At the 32 minute mark on episode
https://anchor.fm/thepilotspandemic/episodes/39-Joe-LoRusso-Aviation-Attorney--Discussing-Flawed-Aeromedical-Policies-e1jcgbd LoRusso states many of the the FAA neuropsychs are more or less fact bought and paid for hacks. LoRusso said as much at 34 min 10 secs where he said the HIMS quacks use a template where you can black out the names of reports from different pilots, the reports minus the names end up being identical. LoRusso also states, that's your problem when money gets involved with this situation The pilot is screwed the moment he is forced to go see the quack. The pilot is trapped and it becomes a financial gravy train for the quacks. Non-airline pilots have to pay entirely out of pocket but airline pilots are sponsored by the airlines and the airlines are reimbursed by the FAA, AKA the taxpayer also pointed out at 12 min 20 sec. What needs to be asked during these congressional inquires is what is requirement for a bought and paid for hack psychologist to maintain their status as a 3rd party medical contractor with the FAA and why doesn't the FAA revoke the status of those that have been blacklisted? Is their a quota of how many pilots have to get flunked? Is there a quota of certain non-minority and heterosexual males pilots that need to be flunked. What type of kickbacks are transpiring between these 3rd party medical contractors and the FAA?
The fact that that The FAA seems to lose paperwork on non DEI pilots that somehow pass the rigged assessment and refuses to grant unrestricted medicals speaks volumes https://www.reddit.com/r/flying/comments/11rh17o/passed_faa_adhd_neurocognitive_tests_with_flying/ That the corrupt FAA neropsychologists are going out of their way to have information about the Cogscreen removed from the internet https://www.reddit.com/r/flying/comments/11rh17o/comment/jc8mb9h/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 to the point that people are openly questioning if kickbacks are given every time a Cogscreen is administered incentivizing holding pilots hostage in this aeromedical cottage industry https://www.reddit.com/r/flying/comments/11ogeu6/how_to_pass_neurobiological_testing_without/jbsvgoh/?context=3
It doesn't help that these hacks take their marching orders from those that are in charge of this process which as mentioned above includes Dr. David O'Brien who LoRusso mentions by name 26 min 40 secs by stating Dr. David O'Brien has way too much discretionary power to reject an airmen's medical application based on opinion At 26 min 48 sec LoRusso states mental health is subjective. In fact a white paper authored by Dr. O'Brien hosted on the website for Cognitive Research Corporation, as mentioned above the company set up by Dr. Gary Kay PhD to control Cogscreen. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qCxR_cOGWhagrg-fN6HUj4hyu1r8Lf5U/view?usp=sharing Shortly after this was brought up with a Congressional office including questioning how much Dr. David O'Brien financially benefitted from each time the Cogscreen was administered to a pilot, the PDF was deleted from the website, but not before I downloaded it, as well as the Google Cache to prove it was there. Here is the HTML download https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MI4fpaybNrb9ytlOy69kRaoL1kM4AVoF/view If the page fails to load properly, here's the Google Cache converted to PDF https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mOzRzJqWoAhbSAHooQAJmKtjSJaz9cwvHGCc5nsaD1E/edit
LoRusso states that this is not just limited to Dr. David O'Brien but as a whole the FAA Aeromedical Division, AAM 300, based in Oklahoma City employees some of the least qualified doctors possible 27 min 30 secs, 28 min 15 sec. FAA Doctors have not been clinicians for decades many of them have not scene patients regularly in 30 plus years. 29 min AAM-300 often rejects non-FAA approved (meaning no kickbacks to the FAA) specialist documentation and demands raw data for AAM-300 to interpret themselves yet they don't have any specific specialist to interpret the data so they interpret the data wrong. This is not only a failure of the Oklahoma Medical Board to rein in this type or malpractice, because since this malpractice extends across state lines, it's also a failure of other States' Medical and Psychology Boards by allowing their State's doctors to be dictated by an out of state entity in violation of HIPAA and the 10th Amendment. Also for the doctors in AAM to make their decisions in Oklahoma and not see the patients directly is unehtical https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5809224/ as well as probably illegal since they are tagging diagnoses on pilots in states they are not licensed to practice medicine or psychology in and it's highly unlikely there are doctors in AAM-300 that have licenses in all 50 states. The NIH article also concluded with Other instances are more controversial, he said. He pointed to a recent case in Ontario, in which an optician discovered that a psychiatrist had rendered an opinion about his mental health without meeting or speaking with him. The evaluation was based solely on emails and a few documents. The optician learned of the report during a legal battle; his opponents had commissioned it. The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario initially ruled that the physician’s conduct was appropriate. On appeal, however, it said that the psychiatrist should not have released the findings to a third party without the patient’s consent.
One reason for The Goldwater Rule is the likelihood of error in a diagnosis made at a distance. A proper diagnosis requires much more than “a review of television appearances, tweets, and public comments,” the American Psychiatric Association noted in its statement. “The standards in our profession require review of medical and psychiatric history and records and a complete examination of mental status. Often collateral information from family members or individuals who know the person well is included, with permission from the patient.”
Armchair diagnosis can also harm trust in the medical profession, according to Brendan Leier, a clinical ethicist at the John Dossetor Health Ethics Centre. Doctors are stewards of an inherited trust. “What you do can undermine that trust,” he said, because diagnosing public figures on cable TV could cause you to be perceived more as a political advocate than a physician.
Also it should be pointed out all of this malpractice and bureaucratic red tape is not making the skies safer, if anything it's making the skies less safe by discouraging pilots from seeking medical help including for mental health for something that is treatable, https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/we-need-to-change-the-system-that-keeps-pilots-from-seeking-mental-health-care/ that would create a diagnosis they would have to declare that could ground them unnecessarily due to malpractice, including misdiagnosis, grounding a pilot for years which causes their piloting skills to get "rusty." LoRusso pointed out that under the current system pilots cannot live a normal life and be human and live in constant fear of losing their medicals due to the FAA archaic policies towards mental health. 22 min 50 seconds which includes the potential of losing you medical for mourning the loss of a loved one. Not declaring any medical diagnosis is considered perjury punishable by 5 years in prison, $250,000 fine, and permanent loss of not only a pilot's medical but all earned pilot ratings. https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/all-news/2005/december/29/government-issues-stiff-penalties-for-medical-certification-falsification Which is why pilots avoid all medical care, because no diagnosis is in the letter of the FAA not lying and not committing perjury. The 118th Congress needs to ask why is the FAA seemingly immune from HIPAA regulations regarding a pilots right medical privacy. Going a step further this seems to be 4th and 5th Amendment violations. This is an item that not only the House Transportation Committee and Aviation Subcommittee should address, but also the Oversight and Reform Committee regarding the unethical and potentially unlawful practices by the managers at AAM-300 which would fall under the Subcommittee On Government Operations and the Federal Workforce which Congressman Sessions is Chairman of. Forcing this aeromedical reform will only make the skies safer.
If anything the status quo which discourages pilots to seek medical attention makes them health ticking time bombs. It can't be emphasized enough, a treatable diagnosis to prevent sudden incapacitation causes pilots to be grounded, while avoiding medical care to avoid a groundable diagnosis, pilots are rolling the dice with their health which could lead to sudden incapacitation in the flight deck, which makes the skies more unsafe under the current practice. Dr. Brent Blue has in fact advocated eliminating FAA medical requirements at least for the 3rd class medicals for this very reason as well as stating that the Medical Profession has failed to predict when sudden incapacitation would actually happen so why is the FAA in the business of it. The fact is eliminating the medical requirement would in fact encourage pilots to seek medical attention for their overall health which itself would make the skies safer. sites.google.com/site/no2cog/supporting-evidence/senior-ame-states-faa-medical-should-be-eliminated
Addressing, fixing, and reforming this his should be a legislative priority taken up by the forthcoming 118th Congress as part of the FAA Reauthorization act of 2023 https://www.commerce.senate.gov/2022/9/faa-reauthorization-integrating-new-entrants-into-the-national-airspace-system due the fact The FAA currently does not follow HIPAA regulations and in fact owns pilots and air traffic controllers' medical records and can't be emphasized enough, even though the pilot and air traffic controllers pay for the test, they are not even allowed copies of test results that are added to their medical records which is a violation of the 4th and 6th Amendment. What this essentially means is these "3rd party contractors" are not 3rd parties at all but really work for the FAA and they are partial to the agency in order to keep their status with it. It also must be inquired how much these "3rd party contractors" and "aeromedical fixers" kickback to the FAA to maintain their preferred status. It also calls into question how much "pilot advocacy organizations" such as the Aircraft Owners and Pilot Association or AOPA and the Air Line Pilots Association (yes it's spelled Air Line) or ALPA benefit for the status quo and are actually fighting against congressional reform of the FAA Aeromedical Division and the FAA medical evaluation process such as the aforementioned push to eliminate the medical requirement nearly a decade ago by Senators Jim Inhofe and Joe Manchin that was killed by ALPA at the 11th hour. It should also be pointed out that the United States Military is now allowing those tagged with ADHD to join without a waver and without having to go to a psychologist, as in standard admittance and not by special issuance by simply not having symptoms for 3-7 years https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-military-works-to-enlist-recruits-who-have-faced-behavioral-challenges-11672153912?st=spzlg7t8gm8lbhv&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink which would cover the vast majority of pilots who were tagged with ADHD in elementary school but became pilots in their late 20s on up. If the FAA is granting standard issue medicals to transgenders, even those that have gone through "bottom surgery" that have permanent open wounds https://youtu.be/jzeQZamQeJI?t=1253 and are in constant distracting pain
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11629421/Half-trans-surgery-patients-suffer-extreme-pain-sexual-issues-years-later.html and the military is now allowing people tagged with ADHD to join unconditionally, why is the FAA still requiring those to go through the biased neuropsychology process where quacks like John Matthew Fabian line their pockets financially clipping pilots wings. This includes making the airman cover all costs so they can't be charged with medical insurance fraud or defrauding the taxpayer. it pushes screwing over the pilot into the civil realm from the criminal one even though what they are doing is outright malpractice. Because the current system of "finding problems" allows them to hold pilots hostage for as long as they can get away with this malpractice.
John Matthew Fabian does not seem like an isolated case but a systemic problem with the FAA medical evaluation as a whole. What I am going be describe below about Fabian seems to be the norm with the FAA Aeromedical Division. On top of which I uncovered a radio interview Fabian Conducted in May 2021 which shows Fabian's diagnosis not only reeks of malpractice, but seems to have also been political with Fabian's apparent bias against Caucasian heterosexual males from a nuclear family with a type A personality and are politically conservative who he views as having toxic masculinity. https://omny.fm/shows/the-pat-thurston-show/may-27-2021-armed-and-misogynist-how-toxic-masculi mirrored https://next.thehhp.net/index.php/s/m3HKx6do4AfwSXQ 20 minute mark. Full Transcript is here https://sites.google.com/site/no2cog/supporting-evidence/example-of-faa-3rd-party-doctors-that-committing-malpractice-against-pilots/fabians-bias-against-non-dei-males-that-want-to-win-and-be-self-reliant
Fabian in the radio interview as a transcribed below also shows a direct bias against self reliant men, in direct contraction with House Transportation Committee member Representative Thomas Massie https://twitter.com/RepThomasMassie/status/1614971514343784451
In fact science as a whole has been politicized to the point that it's no longer science at all and the "published results" are in fact a political agenda to the point of being criminal with the information drops coming out of twitter by Elon Musk where he admits Twitter is a chime scene https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1601667312930590721 . When Elon posted the tweet, My pronouns are Prosecute Fauci https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1601894132573605888 Scott Kelly, the Democrat Senator from Arizona responded that Elon was being transphobic and that Dr. Fauci is a dedicated public servant whose sole motivation was saving lives. https://twitter.com/StationCDRKelly/status/1602099380625887233 Elon's response was, I strongly disagree. Forcing your pronouns upon others when they didn’t ask, and implicitly ostracizing those who don’t, is neither good nor kind to anyone. As for Fauci, he lied to Congress and funded gain-of-function research that killed millions of people. Not awesome imo. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1602113254360162304 and responding to another tweet Elon states he has to get political to for the future of civilization https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1602028153777451008 With this engagement, when called out for being fraudulent, The Science™ proponents only recourse is to call their critics racist, conspiracy theorists, and/or transphobic. Elon calls out The Science™ proponents out as a cult https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1602307663970213890 The Branch Covidians are upset lol. It took almost three years of the global society to be permanently disrupted and the wealthiest person on the planet to expose that science has been politicized and weaponized. Elon Musk even tweeted The woke mind virus is either defeated or nothing else matters https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1602278477234728960
Elon even stated on video, almost every conspiracy theory on twitter turned out to be true. https://twitter.com/drelidavid/status/1607049015199424512 This includes the suppression of action science in favor o The Science™ with regards to the jab as well as the masks trapping CO2 leading to cognitive loss which helped weaponize mental health by tagging more people as "cognitive slow" when in reality they are wired normal but were being asphyxiated by the CO2 trapping masks. Even Representative Thomas Massie tweeted out a meme on Dec 28, 2022 with regards to Elon Musk implementing a new policy on twitter of reasoned questioning of the science https://twitter.com/RepThomasMassie/status/1608201881830014976 To this day the FBI calls this "disinformation" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NxlFNh1Z4A This type of denial and labeling those that call out this fraud as misinformation and a conspiracy as the only rebuttal shows how truthful this actually is. If they are doing this with the twitter files, the COVID policies since 2020, they've been doing this with other forms or medical weaponization such as with the FAA medicals.
This isn't a recent occurrence either. What I'm going to show is this type of weaponization of The Science™ of mental health has been going on for decades as pointed by Karlene Pettit
https://karlenepetitt.blogspot.com/2019/02/weaponization-of-mental-health.html?m=1 and has nothing to do with actual safety of the skies but more to do with equity that is replacing perfectly qualified pilots by having them take a rigged cognitive assessment which not every pilot has to take which violates the 14th Amendment equal protection clause, to have said pilot's spot taken by a politically correct alternative, who may not have the same qualifications or experience which ironically in itself is racist. As Dr. Blue points out the entire process is draconian and the entire process is rigged from start to finish from the evaluation forward because it's not about keeping the skies safe but more about keeping a lucrative cottage industry of "aeromedical fixers" funded.
