Just hours after President Trump blamed diversity initiatives at the Federal Aviation Administration for the deadly plane crash above the Potomac River, FAA employees, including air traffic controllers, received an email asking them to quit their jobs, according to a report. 

The email, which was sent out to hundreds of thousands of federal employees as part of Mr. Trump’s push to remove many civil servants from their positions arrived in their email boxes at 8:30 p.m. – 24 hours after an Army Blackhawk helicopter crashed into an American Airlines passenger jet making its descent into Reagan National Airport at Washington, DC.
