So did he, like, Uber back from Waffle House or was it a round trip portal?
Is this newsworthy? he seems pretty par-for-the-course in this administration. "Trump appointee completely normal and levelheaded" seems more newsworthy, which is sad because that sounds like an "Onion" article headline.
This is what happens when you elevate faith over reason. Let's get a flat-earth promoter as FAA head.
He could easily state that some disaster was from god and that providing relief contradict god's will.

Unwavering allegiance to the current head of state seems to be the only technical qualification required for one party in the US. Being thoroughly mentally unfit or profoundly incapable of functioning in the role you’re being paid for seems to be a little consequence now.
Which leads us to a FEMA director in charge of disaster response for the country believing that he was “teleported” not to the moon or some cool spaceship. But to a goddamn Waffle House (against his will).

It's generally accepted to claim belief in any number of Gods in polite company. I'm never quite clear on where the line is supposed to be.
At least they could make landing on a flat, non-spherical surface would be much easier, I guess.
Certainly not a headline that I had on my bingo card for 2026…
