A massive leak has poured about 300,000 gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac, making it the largest wastewater spill in U.S. history. The pipe leak is in Maryland, but Gov. Wes Moore, who's busy rebuilding the Key Bridge, points the finger at DC Water, which owns and operates —and you would think repairs — the Potomac Interceptor sewer line.
We've seen a lot of posts claiming that DEI is behind this ecological disaster. Why would people think that? Let's go to DC Water Manager David Gadis:

"We had too many white men in charge."
"The executives should reflect the city."
DC just had the largest sewage spill in US history: 240 𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙤𝙣 gallons in one month FLOODING the Potomac.

It seems that Gadis succeeded in making the DC Water executive suite more reflective of the employees and the community. Let's meet Unique N. Morris-Hughes, chair of DC Water.
End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) ~ This is Unique N. Morris-Hughes. She is the Chair of DC Water, which just had the worst sewage spill in American history. Check out her prior experience:
NOVA Campaigns (@NoVA_Campaigns) ~ The Chair of @dcwater board isn’t an engineer or a city planner. Dr. Unique N. Morris-Hughes is a DEI bureaucrat, non profit “educator,” grant disperser of taxpayer money, and former asst. head of a boys charter school. She’s now head of the largest raw sewage spill in U.S. history.
She's committed to the DEI bit:

"The disruption work that I'm doing is I am on a mission to make sure black & brown kids" get careers
They just had a historic sewage spill.

Paul A. Szypula (@Bubblebathgirl) ~ And I thought Pete Buttigieg was a bad DEI hire.
MAGA ME (@MyHandleNo) ~ No relevant experience whatsoever. That explains the problem.
Sherri in Texas (@SherriTexas) ~ Over and over again, the cost of DEI is exorbitant.
Victoria Byrne (@Thevictoria76) ~ If true, that’s a serious leadership failure. Accountability matters when public infrastructure is on the line.
President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday on Truth Social that the federal government would be taking over the operation. "As we saw in the Palisades, the Democrat War on Merit has real consequences," he wrote.
