Second episode of Mike Rowe’s new YouTube program. I have a few tears. This is a terrific organization.
A new study shows the number of children and adults diagnosed with autism has increased by 175% over a decade. That’s just…astonishing. There’s a lot of disagreement as to why this is happening, and this episode will not shed any new light on the potential reasons…nor will it delve into the surrounding controversy. It will, however, reveal the incredible contribution that the autism community is making to close America’s skills gap.
The organization is called T.A.C.T., which stands for Teaching the Autism Community Trades. The genius behind this movement is Danny Combs, and what he’s accomplished so far is nothing short of extraordinary.
CNN, MSNBC, and liberal pundits are framing it as some sort of foreign bribery scheme, with some even suggesting national security is at risk. But according to Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), there’s a key detail they’re all conveniently leaving out—and it turns the entire narrative upside down.

“What no one’s talking to you about,” Mullin revealed, “is this same 747 has been in negotiations for a year. The Biden administration is the one that started these conversations. It didn’t start under the Trump administration. Why? Because we need a backup for Air Force 1. Because right now, the president of the United States is flying around on a 40-year-old plane, and there is no backup for it. The backup we had, the airframe started having structural issues.”
In other words, the very deal Democrats are now attacking only exists because Joe Biden’s team initiated it. “No one’s discussing that part,” Mullin added. “They’re just discussing that the deal ended with President Trump. Maybe the media doesn’t know. Maybe I’ll give them a pass. Maybe you didn’t know. I’ll give you the pass. I’ll give you a pass on that one. But the fact is this conversation started with Qatar with Biden a year ago.”
So while Democrats are outraged over a plane they quietly tried to secure themselves, it’s clear their problem isn’t with the jet—it’s with Trump.
