Over the weekend, Senator Mark Kelly was called out for perceived hypocrisy when he said that “the last thing he would want” in a space shuttle crew would be “seven White guys.”
Kelly called such a team “a disaster.”
One popular influencer, Robby Starbuck, responded to Kelly’s comment on X.com, “Sometimes people can’t tell if Democrats are outright lying or if they actually believe this stuff… So let me drop in a photo of Mark Kelly’s crew on the STS-134 space mission. 6 White guys. Majority pilots. Mission was a success. So yeah, he knows what he’s saying is bullshit.”

According to HotAir.com, Kelly argued that diversity considerations strengthen America’s military and said it was something he sought in his crew during the space shuttle missions he commanded in a 30-minute conversation April 11 with the Rev. Al Sharpton.
His comment about “white guys” isn’t the only instance of hypocrisy he has shown in the wake of the recent successful Artemis II mission.
While he praised the Artemis II mission, he voted against the measure that provided the funding for it and future endeavors.
Racism is truly a terrible thing.
Unless it’s against white men. And you’re a Democrat.
When did this become okay? https://t.co/Yq6DzS3RI8
