Podcast host Joe Rogan blasted Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg over his remarks about the race of construction workers in lower income communities.
Buttigieg said too many construction crews have workers who “don’t look like” the communities they work in at a Monday panel at the National Association of Counties Conference. Rogan said the secretary displayed a lack of awareness on the effective work of construction workers during a discussion about the Feb. 3 train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio.
“Do you know that he gave a speech the other day about how there’s too many white people working in construction sites, where these construction sites are set up in these communities,

My guess would be that either black applicants don't apply for these jobs or the population does not exist in rural areas. They tend to prefer city life. Buttigieg avoids real work so he doesn't understand.

Well, with Pete Buttigieg being the Transportation Secretary, white guys get the cushy jobs and minorities get the labor jobs. . .

Let me expand even more. It is like all of these women wanting their rights but how many women in the snowy Midwest are out there shoveling or plowing snow? So just in case someone gets offended at my statement, hey Pete Buttigieg, how about a minority in your position and you labor at the construction site?

Buttigeig will do everyone a favor if he just went home and cared for the kiddies.

Poor Peety! He's hasn't a Clue! The reason there are not many Blacks in line for Construction Work is because they are all in Line at the "Freebie" Office! They want their Free Money, Food stamps, Rent Money and any other Hand Outs they can get! They do NOT want to work at a Construction Site! Check out how many White's you see at the Unemployment Office and how many Blacks there are. There is your answer! Take away their Freebies and they still won't work. That's when they join the Crowd who walks into a Store, Take what they want, then walk out like they didn't do a thing wrong! That's YOUR world, Peety!

Funny how White bosses really like to talk abt wanting more POC but THEY never want to step down and give THEIR job to a POC. Ever notice that? Why doesn't butt head STEP DOWN and hand over HIS job to a POC?

Think Rogan misunderstood. Petey said there were too many straight people working.

Is he really trying to say- not say - that there are too many Hispanics working construction?

It is hard, dirty, dangerous work....so of course it is white men who will clean up the mess. Who else does everyone think is going to do it ?

Yes, Pete! Believe it or not, we do have worse problems than white people working! Instead of pontificating, do your job. Wake up and smell the coffee - and if you’re brave enough to go to Ohio today - the noxious air there.

Why is the Transportation Secretary worrying about this ? Wouldn't this more appropriately fall under the responsibilities of the Labor Department Secretary ?

The Mayor of South Bend, IN cannot speak on any subject with any knowledge or authority. He got his job because he’s gay. His resume is very thin. He is useless as Transportation Secretary but thinks he can also comment about the construction industry. No. He can’t.

#8 That's because they are the only ones who will show up for work. White workers seem to have a bad case of the lazies.

Do you want to ride the elevator to the 50th floor of an office building designed and constructed by EOE hires, or by the best qualified??
It's true, there aren't a lot of Black Americans or women of any color working on construction sites. What is also true is the very high number of non-english speaking painters, framers and dry-wallers.

Well, when I was still working in DC and construction was booming - pre-covid scamdemic, most of the workers at the construction sites were Hispanic and the work sites were in upscale very white neighborhoods.

Has Buttaplug ever visited a construction site? Not too much English spoken there. This guy is such a pandering loser.

Has this guy ever been at a construction site? If he had, he'd know that almost all of the workers are hispanic. We are having a big project done near where I work and most of the music that the guys play is Tejano (I like it). Where I live, Mexican immigrants have the roofing business all sewn up and several of them own their own companies. I've had several black guys who are plumbers work on some problems I had and they did a good job.
Pete needs to get out more

Since most records show that 12% of America's population is black...or as the wokes call them...people of color...that would mean 20,000,000 are citizens....divide that by 2 for men and women and I'd say 10,000,000 are available for construction work...of which perhaps only half that number are physically fit for the tough/dangerous/jobs...so mr. Pete what's your plan to change that...in Chicago...where king Obama is building his throne on the south side...no one wants to work there because of the neighborhood...not even blacks...will you force them into labor camps???...as you vacation in Portugal....

As mayor of South Bend IN Little Petey Boot Edge-Edge couldn't get the potholes fixed on the roads. Now he thinks he knows about the make up of construction sites. The last one I went to not far from my work had all Hispanic workers a Black foreman and when the bosses showed up they were White men. He needs to get out more.

Is this the Left's plan? To put in office people like Mr. Butt Head and others who are destroying our beloved country?
Biden, Mayrokas, Buttihead, Garlic Man, (they don't deserve our respect so we name call) and others who are either so incompetent or unwilling to do their job, Americans are left defenseless! Sorry patriots, you are on your own.
These hirelings have left you high and dry! When trouble comes as the bible story says, they run!

I'm sure Mayor Pete will be encouraging the construction unions to include Diversity Equity and Inclusion in their hiring practices. /s

Simple answer. No education, no training or schooling in a trade. In construction you actually have to perform tasks and show results. All happening under the watchful eye of others. You see in construction you actually have to show progress. Get it yet....

How utterly idiotic! A construction company bids on jobs all over a metropolitan area. Demographics of work vary by job. The company hires people that apply who they think will show up and work. Color has nothing to do with it. What an idiot, as is all of the Biden gang.

I sure have a problem with Pete Buttkiss.
He took a cabinet level job as Transportation Secretary away from someone who would be competent for the job and would ACTUALLY SHOW UP. He got that job solely because he is GAY, and is completely useless.
The USA deserves better than this gay boi and his demented boss.
FJB!

What!? Is Butter trying to say that there are poor White people in America, who are willing to do jobs that Black Americans won't do?

I think he was talking about Mexicans but he didn't know he was talking about Mexicans. He probably heard from some black leaders who told him the workers "didn't look like them." They meant Mexicans but knew it would be politically incorrect to say that directly. Buttigieg said "didn't look like them" because he was repeating the phrase he had been told by the black leaders and I doubt he realized they were really talking about Mexicans.
