Pete Buttigieg Suddenly Interested in Transportation Issues, Sean Duffy Responds
“Mayor Pete failed for four years to address the air traffic controller shortage and upgrade our outdated, World War II-era air traffic control system”
Biden Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg seems more interested in transportation issues now than he did when he was actually in charge of the Department of Transportation.
Following the recent and tragic air disasters, Buttigieg saw an opportunity to take a shot at Trump Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.
Townhall reports:
Buttigieg Questions Recent FAA Firings. Duffy Responds.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy accused his predecessor of “mismanagement” after he took to X questioning the recent firings of FAA employees.
“The flying public needs answers,” former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg wrote. “How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?”
Duffy explained the firings but also called out Buttigieg’s tenure.
“Mayor Pete failed for four years to address the air traffic controller shortage and upgrade our outdated, World War II-era air traffic control system,” Duffy responded. “In less than four weeks, we have already begun the process and are engaging the smartest minds in the entire world.
“Here’s the truth: the FAA alone has a staggering 45,000 employees,” Duffy continued. “Less than 400 were let go, and they were all probationary, meaning they had been hired less than a year ago. Zero air traffic controllers and critical safety personnel were let go.
“Mayor Pete chose to use this amazing department—that is so critical to America’s success—as a slush fund for the green new scam and environmental justice nonsense,” he added. “Not to mention that over 90% of the workforce under his leadership were working from home – including him. The building was empty!

For anyone who can’t see what Buttigieg is doing here, allow me to point out the obvious. Pete Buttigieg is planning another run for president in 2028 and that’s what this is really about. Pete has to keep his name out there to remain relevant.
He is also pushing the Obama – get in their faces – method of engaging the public.

People have noted the irony of Pete’s recent transportation post.
This guy has talked more about transportation issues since he’s running for Gov than his entire time as Secretary lol https://t.co/txqU5MIsZU

Buttigieg has a lot of nerve criticizing anyone. He was utterly ineffective in his role as transportation secretary. They don’t call him ‘Pothole Pete’ for nothing.

Hey, you guys! Go easy on this nursing mother.
The pretend birth of his 2 trafficked babies plus the phony lactation took a lot of his time!
I chuckled at your comment which is spot on.
I know so incredibly disgusting
Pothole Pete Buttinsky is a 1000% WEF sycophant globalist incompetent a*hole who is running for president in 2028 and is definitely trying to stay relevant and lead the “axis of resistance”.
I liked your comment, too.
Pothole? More like Bunghole!
ding ding ding …. we have a winner ….
He can try to remain relevant which will be a hard ask as he was completely irrelevant the last 4 years. I rarely pay attention to the Transportation Secretary unless there are changes to the Hours of Service or other truck rules but since he made a spectacle of himself by getting confirmed and promptly going missing for a few months I have to ask, what did he do over the last 4 years? Anything that would make him think he could be President?
Pete is a failure of a mayor and a failure of a transportation secretary. Naturally, he’s running for president.
But he ticks off the boxes! He’s a Veteran, he’s Gay and he does the ‘most difficult job in the world’, he’s a Mother.
Go take another maternity leave idiot
Is he back from paternity leave and chestfeeding?
He mensturates about as well as he handled his Sec of Transportation gig.
Somebody tell Buttgig he’s a little late with his concern.
.
I admiitedly don’t know much about Sean Duffy, But if the moron nominated him and he accepted two things jump out. He’s an a-hole and incompetent. Gonna be a rough ride for a couple of years until this orange s-stain goes away.
Oh, look. It’s off it’s meds again.
And The Jay Vee is heard from.
Pete is that you? Escaped from state mental institution again? You really need to have them double or triple your medication. It’s for your own good.
You progressive fascists only care about your power and anyone who defeats you is evil. You’re just like your buddies Hitler, Stalin and Mao. You have copied their evil idea of removing your enemies thru lawfare. Making up faux charges and giving them unfair “trials” with judges, prosecutors and jurors who hate the defendant so the outcome is predetermined.
Scary for the democrats if he’s the best they got.
sean duffy is a joke. But he passes the ‘moron’s ‘ test . He’s white and he’s an ass kisser.PERFECT!!
Ph*uc*k Pete (the bra) Buttigieg.
