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.

Were they in a hospital bed waiting for their vaginas to heal?
“HIS BOSS” is the entire American public....NOT just Biden.
All the executives I worked for, if we were in the middle of a big crisis, would call their wives in the maternity ward and ask “How’d the delivery go, honey? How’s the babe? Gotta run...duty calls. Love you.”
Oh, come on there, POF! You exaggerate!
You are right, they weren’t THAT bad. They would have stopped by the maternity ward to bring flowers, give the wife a kiss, and hold the baby for a minute before heading back into the fires.
I think they used a surrogate!!!
We've come a long way, baby.
Leave him alone he likes trains
His boss?
Fake md jill?
They are typical of the Democrat brand of public servants who think it means the public is supposed to serve them.
He is busy playing make-believe while Rome burns.
This is twisted.
Biden is a pedophile.
Male Trans..portation secretary is on paternity leave with his “husband”.
The Assistant secretary of health is a mentally ill transgender.
And this clown wanted to be President
I could be wrong, but I think they get to go to the front of the line.
You are mistaken. They go to the rear of the line.
Buttigieg is not just some corporate staffer; he is a literal Cabinet secretary, and it is perfectly reasonable to expect him to show up and do his job.
The fact that no one in the Biden administration asked that of him shows they didn’t think he’d be of much use anyway. Which makes sense — he was wholly unqualified for the position in the first place......
The most telling part of the story is that nobody in the media even noticed that Buttigieg was missing!!!!
From Washington Examiner.
Buttigieg wanted to be a gay celebrity far more than anything political as I see it. He’s a gay flamer who loves to exhibit gay behavior in public as he’s proven......same with his adopting children....more photo ops to get attention in the press.
2 months off? He should have been a teacher.
Who are the REAL parents of these children?
Buttigieg looks like a demonic version of Howdy Doody!!!! And his “husband” looks demonic, too!!!!
These poor children will grow up without a mother, and with demonic “gays” as adoptive “parents” instead of a real father!! The Buttigieg pair will indoctrinate the poor kids with leftist, “gay” ideology! Lord have Mercy!!!!
The feckless, brain-dead and illegitimate “president” biden chose Buttigieg to be Secretary of Transportation just because he’s “gay”!!!! He is totally unqualified for this position, or even to be a dog-catcher.
We now need a super-competent Secretary of Transportation to help us work our way out of our supply-chain crisis! Lord have Mercy!!!!
Degenerate grifters.
