'Woke Rules': Ric Grenell Blasts Buttigieg and Explains Why He Was Hired
townhall.com ^ | 10/15/2021 | Spencer Brown

Biden's Secretary of Transportation — former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg — is under fire this week for his absence during an escalating supply chain crisis that threatens to leave American stores filled with little more than empty shelves ahead of the busy holiday shopping season.

As Katie explained earlier on the supply chain problems, "the situation has reached crisis levels as 250,000 shipping containers remain offshore" waiting to be offloaded at the twin ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach while "Americans across the country are experiencing shortages" that are expected to become more widespread.

"It turns out," Katie reported, "Buttigieg has been on paternity leave, and while he's had plenty of time to do interviews for People magazine about his home life, he hasn't been at work."

At this point, focusing on arguments about Buttigieg's decision to take paternity leave misses the larger question of why Mayor Pete was tapped for a key role in Biden's cabinet overseeing America's transportation system despite his inability to handle potholes in South Bend.

Just more proof that we need to move manufacturing back to the US.

More proof that President Trump was and is right.

Yes Lil Petey is spotting alright — spotting out of the Hershey Highway after a "rough" night.

They’re both fags. But Grenell is more open-minded and Buttfag is all “why cant everything be gay??”.

Is that idiot the ‘husband’ or the ‘wife’? And I thought paternity leave was to aid the mother’s recovery from actual childbirth. What a fing joke on so many levels.

As the supply chain port crisis festers, Buttigieg has been on 12 week maternity leave, and had plenty of time to do interviews for People magazine about his homo life.......

Buttigieg’s self-serving decision to take paternity leave undermines taxpayers interests.......the ones paying his salary.

Buttigieg shows disturbing signs of being heterophobic.

Hopefully, this abysmal dude of a cabinet secretary ends the sacrosanct status of the alphabet brigade.

I suppose our Transportation Secretary is following Meghan Markle and her pet castrato’s post-partum “time off from work” (although what Markle and her pet work at is unknown). Mayor Pete and his whatever are following suit.

The big difference is that Mayor Pete was given an important, vital, national and international job he is completely unqualified for, and useless to boot.

Does his man husband work outside the home? I never learned what the other guy does for a living. Anyway, why can’t he take time off?

But i know how it goes. With political correctness and normalizing homosexual parenting, we aren’t allowed to say anything, lest we be charged with being homophobic.

We have regular military personnel that know what to do in Port operations and in transportation.

Assign them to perform the ship offloading, and the transportation of materials!!
This crisis is of national importance! Get it done!!

Butting needs to be fired, and someone with knowledge, not wokeism, needs to be installed!!

I think him being gay is just part of the story. I also think that, during the election, Biden convinced him to drop out of the race with the understand that, if he did so, he would get a “visible” position in the new administration. Something like this has to be the case, because there clearly is nothing in his background that would qualify him for being the head of the transportation sector.

All these members of the cult are puppet frontmen.

His role is to be in People magazine for the propaganda purposes.
