Fired by MnDOT, now at Homeland Security

Sonia Pitt, who skipped recovery efforts after the bridge collapse, is now working for TSA.



Sonia Pitt, the MnDOT emergency response executive fired for taking an unauthorized, state-paid trip to Washington during the Interstate 35W bridge disaster, is now working for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Pitt, 44, of Red Wing, confirmed Wednesday that she is working for Homeland Security's Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) at its headquarters in Arlington, Va. Her job title is "Transportation Security Specialist.'' Pitt declined to discuss her job responsibilities, her length of employment with the federal agency or her salary.

"All inquiries go through my attorney, same as always,'' Pitt said.

4. Yuh... Republicans Really Give a Shit About Homeland Security

by hiring unqualified corrupt losers to fill positions.

The borrowed Nazi-like term, "Homeland" should have raised red flags a long time ago. But instead we have pieces of shit like Pelosi protecting this Nazi criminal so he can continue to destroy this country from within. I swear Osama and Bush must be buddies... they seem to share a disdain for this country.
