If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

What an exhausting day.

So much trauma out there in the world, in our people.

Sending love ♥️

Well. Just saying.

It breaks my heart. NASA worked hard to be more inclusive by reaching out to qualified people who were overlooked, reaching out to children, & planting the seeds to dream. Especially today, on NASA's Day of Remembrance, as both Space Shuttle crews were made up of exceptional & diverse crews.
