The Department of Transportation has just revealed that Secretary Pete Buttigieg has been on paternity leave since mid-August amid the massive ongoing supply-chain crisis, according to a report.
Besides several recent television hits, Buttigieg has been lying low, Politico reported, citing his office. Buttigieg’s team told the outlet that the secretary has been on paternity leave for nearly two months to spend time with his husband and two newborn babies. The office had not previously announced his time off.
“For the first four weeks, he was mostly offline except for major agency decisions and matters that could not be delegated,” a spokesperson said. “He has been ramping up activities since then.”
At the same time, the secretary will “continue to take some time over the coming weeks to support his husband and take care of his new children.”
On Aug. 17, Buttigieg and his husband, Chasten, revealed the two had become dads but said the process wasn’t “done yet.”
“For some time, Chasten and I have wanted to grow our family. We’re overjoyed to share that we’ve become parents!” the former South Bend, Ind., mayor tweeted.
“The process isn’t done yet and we’re thankful for the love, support, and respect for our privacy that has been offered to us. We can’t wait to share more soon.”
Just over two weeks later on Sept. 4, the couple introduced their infant twins with a black-and-white photo, shared on Twitter and Instagram, that showed the couple cuddling the swaddled newborns side by side in a hospital bed.
As US ports face massive cargo ship traffic and the timely delivery of everyday consumer goods and holiday gifts is threatened, Buttigieg has been slammed by Republicans for staying silent. Some doubt he can help solve the crisis, blaming his lack of experience.

OMG!! HOW do so MANY QUEERS GET BABIES??? Poor babies.
Pete has been on leave trying to learn how to nurse his baby.
Sick, twisted freaks.
Dear parents.....if you name your son CHASTEN, he’s going to be GAY! Lance...Bruce....etc.
Does the other guy get maternity leave from his job?
Which one is the wife, they both have wrist bands on in the pic?.....
“If he can’t do the job then he gets fired. Right. Now.”
What a quaint, old-fashioned notion. You think showing up and high performance is required or you get the boot? Ha!
So true.
Is Pete a devout Catholic like Biden and Pelosi?
Isn’t the correct term “chest feed” nowadays? It’s very hard to keep up with changing language.
Pete was in over his head as the MAYOR of SOUTH BEND, INDIANA!!
My wife and I waited 4 years to adopt a baby. With many adoptions, birth parents (often just the birth mother) picks from “profiles” created by the perspective adoptive parents. In open adoptions as most are today, there is on-going contact between birth parents and the child/adoptive parents.
Some women like the idea of being the “only Mom” in that situation so they pick two men.
I don’t get it but it is the reality of the situation.
That’s what trying to figure out you try it now you try it...
He uses his sexual deviant behavior to climb the political ladder. ...because the public buys it.
“Some women like the idea of being the “only Mom” in that situation so they pick two men.”
Just another “logical” female decision...
Indeed they do! And the Biden regime has no problem with that...
I remember a time when ‘his husband’ was a grammatical error. Today, if you use “his” instead of “her” you go to jail.
Pray that the child finds Christ as savior, and leads its homosexual parents whokworship a false God, on Ethan the invented to suit their abominations, to the lord
That might the most REPULSIVE photograph I’ve ever seen.
Actually it may be a good thing Buttigieg is on leave during the supply chain crisis.
These people can only make things worse not better.
