Three years ago, the only people who’d ever heard of Pete Buttigieg were likely to be residents of South Bend, Ind., the town of 103,000 people where he served as mayor.
South Bend is home to Notre Dame University. It has a bus station with a fleet of 60 buses, a small train station and a small regional airport. So, who better for Team Biden to nominate as secretary of the Department of Transportation, which employs more than 58,000 employees – more than half the population of South Bend – and has a budget of $87 billion?

But he's GAY! Another box checked off. No other qualifications needed. Come on, man. Get with the program.

The only reason anyone has even heard of him today is because he's a deviant. Commies love to push these miscreants on society when they are in the conquering phase. Once the commies gain full control, we all know what they do to these useful idiots.

Well, Petey screwed up as a mayor too, so why not screw up the country too?

Bittigiege’s incompetence is a feature, not a bug. Do you see a pattern emerging? Democrats have put total incompetents into key positions for the sole purpose of watching them destroy by their sheer ineptitude this country. Their basic premise was to overload the system to create chaos. Biden may have said he wanted to Build Back Better, but what he has been doing is creating chaos which brings destruction. Communists believe they must achieve that goal in order to build back better a “totalitarian utopia” created with them in total control. “All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.” ~ Benito Mussolini

Blaming Buttigieg for the supply chain issues is like blaming Ronald MacDonald for a bad hamburger.
The cause of the problem started with the lockdowns, enhanced unemployment, eviction moratorium, deaths and illness, quarantines and now vax mandates. First they made it impossible to work. Then they made it lucrative not to work.

What do you expect from a former mayor that could not get the potholes in the streets of his city filled in. Being GAY has nothing to due with getting the job done. There are plenty of smart gays around who would do a far better job. Biden-seems to favor surrounding himself with people who are dumber than he is. In looking for a token gay for his administration, I guess Pete Buttigieg is the only gay he could find who was dumber..

Buttigieg is the perfect example of, 'its not the one's content of the character that matters, its the characters one screws!'

One report said that NON-UNION truckers are now not allowed to load at the docks. Also, that a new Leftifornia law will ban ALL 18-wheelers that are not 2011 models or later. Welcome to Utopia...Socialist style.

Maybe Mayor Pete will put in some bike paths or bus shelters to help the problem.

I try to forgive and make excuses for my former friends who supported both Biden and Butt Judge before the election, thinking that they might have been brainwashed by democrat propaganda but I can't find it in myself to do so. Damn it, it's their fault for helping these incompetent clowns to get elevated into positions of importance, positions in which they are failing badly due to inherent stupidity.

He's just dumb enough to reveal the scam: "This is one more reason why we do need to deliver this infrastructure package, so that we can have a more resilient, flexible physical infrastructure to support our supply chain in this country." SO...it's an problem engineered to grease the skids for the bloated Infernalstructure Bill. Pass it, or suffer a fate!

He's gay and likes choo-choo chains. I thought those were the only qualifications he needed?

Maybe things would be different if there were problems in the supply chain of organic baby food?

1. Pete Buttigieg is a homosexual.
2. Homosexuality is insanity.
3. FJB appointed an insane person to be Secretary of Transportation.
There it is. If you think I'm "homophobic" I don't care. (Oh, my; scary fecal freaks!)

Perhaps Booty Judge can hire some of those logistical folks from Central America. I don't speak Spanish, but I think they are called "coyotes." They can organize transportation and are good at getting things through Customs and across the border. Re-route those ships down to Catagena or to Panama and unload them there. There are thousands of Haitians available to hire on as scabs if the MS13 union is not too resistent. Get those convoys moving. North to Del Rio. Go north, the rush is on!

For some people being gay is not just a lifestyle, it's a career, it's a vocation and it leaves very little time for anything else.

Name PDT's Secretary of Transportation...can you? Or, Obama's? Dubya's?
Ordinarily these are nebbishes, political hacks who largely remain nameless and faceless because that's all they need to be. (And that's not exclusive to DOT...pick another.) The civil service "experts" will make the wheels of government turn, just sign here. The REAL problem is that the "civil service" hacks are partisan, and growing more so.

The supply chain has not broken down, it has been shut down by the ignorance of ideological bent of politicians, who want to rule everything.

He and his husband bought a baby now, so his hands are full. The deep state will tell him what to do though, which probably is nothing.

The article mentions that South Bend is home to Notre Dame. That implies that Notre Dame is part of the city where he was mayor. In fact, Notre Dame has it's own zip code, and operates separately. The city itself is run down. Pete was chosen because, yes, he checks a box, but also because no experience necessary: the shots will be called for the department from behind the curtain.

Read the comments in The Hill under this article and you will see why there are now two Americas. Our America is normal. Their America is the America of Joy Reid and that insane redhead on The View, Joy Behar.
I don't see how there can be any rapprochement between the two.
