Buttigieg on Kamala Harris' Ian 'equity' controversy: Some see 'politics where it doesn't need to be'

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was pressed on comments from Vice President Kamala Harris that critics said suggested Hurricane Ian relief aid be delegated based on factors other than purely loss claims.

Harris had said that "it is our lowest-income communities and our communities of color that are most impacted by these extreme conditions… We have to address this in a way that is about giving resources based on equity, understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity."

On "Your World" Tuesday, Buttigieg was asked about those remarks as his own department seeks to help in the arduous task of rebuilding vital infrastructure like the destroyed Sanibel Island Causeway – the sole link between the popular island and Punta Rassa, Fla., on the mainland.

I don't think this is what he meant to say, but he is correct. Perhaps it was a Freudian Slip.

Lately, we all see politics where it doesn't need to be. For example, we see it in the healthcare of children re: gender reassignment surgery. Yep. It doesn't need to be there.

We see it in climate change. Yep. It doesn't need to be there.

We see it in corporate Wokeism. Yep. It doesn't need to be there.

Pete is “sticking his tongue out and waving his fingers” white staring at VP Kammy.

[Psalm 73]

Ooooh, “cat fight” in Brandon’s Cabinet.

[eyeamok]

Like we are supposed to believe that poor people are impacted greater than wealthy people by calamity and disaster7

[falcon99]

It is really amazing to me how really dumb the major players in this administration are, from Biden on down. Just shows what you get when you cheat.

“Some see ‘politics where it doesn’t need to be”

Yes, that would Kamala you dolt.

[servo1969]

And some see a sexual partner where one isn’t.

[vpintheak]

Then quit injecting politics where it doesn’t need to be, a-hole.
