Former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D) promised to fight racial, economic, and environmental injustice as President-elect Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Department of Transportation (DOT).

He should give top priority to immediately defunding the Department of Transportation, then issue a blanket apology to all the countries of the world for the heinous crimes committed by the DOT in the past, develop a plan for distributing reparations for past racial injustices of the DOT, propose a "Muslim-outreach" program, and then put a bullet through his head.

Regards,

What’s wrong with just repairing the roads?

Didn’t he have something in his city regarding potholes that makes him a complete joke for this job?

Maybe he could refocus on Transportation instead of the domain of other Secretary Departments.

Competent management of our national transportation infrastructure - hard.

Racial-grievance theatrics - easy.

At it's worst,. . .

Is that just a bad transcription, or was that a direct quote from Buttgig?

They never fix anything. The only one who did a dam thing worth while was President Trump.
Look at all the blue cities they are hell holes.

Buttigig has a keen interest in trains, I’m sure.

Yup - these people are incompetent and will pat themselves on the back while they bankrupt themselves...well..they already did drive us into unprecedented and unpayable debt.

Gingrich left us with a surplus. W took care of that for the warmongers.

I wish there was a way we could inflict their policies on only Democrats. Like you voted for it, you get it.

Yes, God help us all since Pete will force his delusions and personal vices upon us all in the name of toxic ideologies.
