In what appears to be a clear rebranding effort, Pete Buttigieg goes so far as to grow a beard in order to firmly establish a 2028 political campaign. And to be honest, it’s no wonder he thinks he needs a revamp because, during his time as Transportation Secretary, things were a coach disaster, often literally. His four years in the Biden presidency were a constant display of incompetence and misplaced objectives. It would be difficult to find a second travel emergency he avoided.

We now have one more.
Do you recall how the internet and Democrats tried to blame Trump for the fatal airstrike at Washington National Airport in January? Also Buttigieg participated in the pile-on.
Disgusting. Trump may be leading and not lying as grieving people do. We prioritized health, conducted near calls, increased Air Traffic Control, and screened a total of tens of thousands of flights for commercial airlines.
The martial and the…— Pete Buttigieg ( @PeteButtigieg ) January 30, 2025
Then that Wes knows that Buttigieg is largely to blame for the drama,
A notoriously secret discovery made during Senate testimony on Wednesday revealed that a crucial line that runs between Reagan National Airport’s air traffic controllers and the Pentagon has been “inoperable” since March 2022, while Buttigieg was the Transportation Secretary. The Washington Post reported on it:
A Federal Aviation Administration standard confirmed on Wednesday that a line that connects Reagan National Airport’s air traffic controllers to their Pentagon counterparts has been “inoperable” since March 2022, further evidence of poor health cooperation between federal agencies in charge of the airport where a air collision in January killed 67 people.
The Defense Department maintains the series, and the aerospace company was not aware of the interruption during the three centuries it was offline, according to Franklin McIntosh, the FAA’s assistant mind of air traffic control, in testimony on Wednesday at a Senate reading. After May 1, when devices at National ordered two passenger jet to leave flights because an Army aircraft was circling outside at the Pentagon, aircraft officials discovered the line wasn’t functioning.

The Pentagon was promptly told to suspend flights around DCA until upgrades are finished by the Trump administration when it learned of the failure on May 1. A crucial security concern was to languish for three years without being addressed by Peter Buttigieg, a flagrant failing on his watch. In contrast, Sean Duffy, the transport secretary of Trump, intervened and addressed the issue as soon as possible. The change in management is undoubtedly more powerful.
Liberals are still determined to blame Trump for a problem that started and wasn’t resolved under Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg, despite this. Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill. ) called the administration’s lack of a more aggressive, proactive mitigation strategy “inexcusable.” FAA and Army must work together more effectively. We don’t need to delay until the long analysis is finished to find out that.
ICYMI: Top Democrats Had a Secret” Plan B” for Biden Throughout.
This be clear: This dereliction occurred under Pete Buttigieg’s control. It’s no surprise Sen. Tammy Duckworth is trying to shield the Trump administration from responsibility for this latest incident. The same Pete Buttigieg who enjoys putting “putting safety first” into action but somehow managed to keep a crucial safety hotline in a three-year period. Even with his noble rhetoric, Buttigieg’s actual work as transport secretary is unflinching.
Buttigieg’s career was a complete failure from day one. He was in charge of infrastructure projects that were regularly derailed by weak management and woke priorities, such as spending tax money to “fix” allegedly racist roads, airline backlogs that crippled the supply chain, and airline backlogs that crippled the supply chain. Who can ignore how completely indifferent he was to East Palestine, Ohio’s economic disaster?

This most recent failure is just one more in a lengthy series of stupidity. Instead of leading, Buttigieg spun. And the press covered him every step of the manner in an effort to support the Biden management.
And then, 67 people have died as a result of his department’s inability to repair what amounts to a straightforward phone line. Under the management of Democrats, the federal government places a premium on political posturing and woke virtue signaling.
