When it comes to handling a pair of toddlers, Pete Buttigieg, the unflappable Secretary of Transportation, may appear a little jet-lagged. Pete and his husband, Chasten Buttigieg, raise their two-year old twins, Penelope and Gus, in Traverse City, Michigan, where they recently moved full-time from Washington to be closer to family.
The kids call Pete "Papa," and Chasten "Daddy."
Asked if they are a good cop/bad cop duo, Pete replied, "I don't know if we have it down to good cop/bad cop. I think of myself as the bad cop, but you think I'm a pushover, don't you?"
"You are 100% a pushover," Chasten acknowledged.
Their journey to parenthood began nine years ago, when Chasten brought up children on their first date. The two married in 2018 – the schoolteacher and the hyper-driven Harvard grad, Rhodes scholar, Navy vet, and Mayor of South Bend, Indiana.
A year later Pete launched his history-making run for president at the age of 37.
The political wunderkind, who has stepped into fatherhood and embraced the unscripted, was asked, "Is there a world where you see Penelope and Gus living in the White House in 2029?"
"I don't know about that," Buttigieg replied. "That's just not how I'm thinking, about even the near future. If anything, having kids that little makes you think more than anything about the really long-term future, past when I'm even around."

Yes, let’s consult the world’s worst example.
What is the full meaning of father?
a male parent
: a male parent. (2) : a man who has begotten a child. also : a male animal who has sired an offspring. b capitalized.
Sorry, Petey. You ain’t no “father”.
Hey Papa, where DO babies come from??? I know they don’t come from you!
What’s could the catcher possibly know about being a real father?
A trip to the fruit loop wing of the psych ward. Way in the corner you’ll find Pete with his crayons.
Pete and Chasten are not fathers. They are two dysfunctional mentally ill men who have lobbied government into accepting their perversion as normal so that they feel better about it. All those allowing this will long for millstone when they meet their just rewards.
They’re probably going to end up in prison for the same behavior as a lot of other gay couples with kids
Wonder if their two-year old twins will ask them when older and confused who’s our mother and where is she and why did she do this to us.
Those two poor boys. I have read accounts of teens and young adults who were raised by same sex couples as confused and struggling to understand how to act around the opposite sex. And there are deeply disturbing examples of children adopted by same sex couples for purposes of pedophile exploitation.
TThis is saying quite a bit, but this repulsive queer is the worst member of Junkyard Joes retinue.
He's been taking it up his rear for so long he's developed rectitis. The disease that works its way through the intestines until lit ends up in the optic nerve. This gives the Buddyfugs of the world a homo's outlook on life.
Rhodes scholar and Navy vet indeed!
Imagine this fruitcake requesting three months off for maternity leave and getting it!
You’ve gotta love this guy when you’re feeling low. You can always sit back and realize that no matter how bad you are in any category, the little smirky-turd is worse.
I’ll go out on a limb and suggest that Penelope is a girl.
It started with Walter Cronkite...
Nice tongue bath here by CBS. But isn’t it amazing, with all that talk 4 years ago about how he could end up President some day, you never even hear him mentioned as a possible replacement for Biden. This is a guy who, besides his own incompetent administration of his duties, was gone on leave for two months, and no one even noticed he was gone. You gotta be a particularly bad diversity hire for the rats not to back you to the hilt. Fawning profiles like this one won’t change the fact that Pete has hit his high water mark, and is receding
Sick, filthy pigs.
Just have to say I am glad I didn’t grow up in a home with 2 men. Wow... those kids will never know a mothers embrace.
How COULD YOU leave out “BARF Alert”???
“unflappable Secretary of Transportation”
It’s hard to get flapped when you are incompetent and don’t do anything.
Hey Butthead, can you explain what a man is? Didn’t think so. You can join that USSC justice who can’t explain what a woman is. Form your own little club, you idiots.
