Video of Pete Buttigieg Confronted Over East Palestine Viewed 1M Times
Newsweek ^ | 2/22/2023 | ALEKS PHILLIPS

Posted on 02/22/2023 10:09:49 AM PST by 1Old Pro

In the video, Buttigieg skirts a series of questions from a reporter while walking on the street, referring to his comments to the media earlier in the day and noting that he was "taking some personal time" when approached.

At the end of the clip, the Biden administration chief asks to take a picture of the reporter, Jennie Taer, of the Daily Caller. "I guess he didn't like that [I was asking him about the derailment] so he took a pic[ture] of me," she wrote. "I'm just doing my job, sir."

“When are you going”? “Uh, duh, uh”

He just screams pansy gay dude who has a job way above his ability but acts just the opposite.

Those who can do, do.
Those who can’t, teach.
Those who can’t teach, become politicians.

Maybe the picture is for the goons and thugs in 'intelligence' so they can bully the reporter. I mean she IS conservative so she fair game for the gestapo...

They owe the public a service

Like going to the scene of a horrific transportation accident when you are transportation secretary.

She’s a brave reporter who remained polite and was not intimidated.
She seems to have a Canadian accent.

No doubt, they have taken turning the administration into the gestapo to new heights.

Will this reporter be getting a visit from the IRS in the near future?
If so, it will just be a coincidence.

Side note to the reporter: The IRS now has armed agents. So don’t answer your door holding a cell phone, or anything else that might look like a gun. Bad things could happen.

No, but his symbolic value is outstanding. It is like ‘Chock-full-of-nuts Coffee’ making Jackie Robinson an executive VP when he retired from baseball. Did the slugger know anything about business or the brand that hired him. No, nothing. However, black people in New York liked to consume this brand and Robinson’s face on their advertisements was worth many times over his salary in saying CFN Coffee was the pro Negro brand of coffee. Same for this zero, it says to the highend business community that McKinsey is ‘loud, woke and proud’.

he was "taking some personal time"

I suggest he use that personal time to serious contemplate resigning. The guy is useless. We have 1000 train derailments according to him. Some are disastrous like East Palestine. We have had planes clips their wings on the tarmac. We had a FedEx plane almost crash into a Southwest flight on the runway missing by just a few 100 feet thanks to a traffic controller who called the FedEx flight to climb high and fast. We have had the entire civil aviation industry shutdown because some nincompoop was altering a live log file in a database. At this pace and this level of inattention and incompetence something much worse than East Palestine is in the cards.

And don't get me started on these racist roads. Roads are not racist, they are just roads. I can agree that in some cases in the past, decisions were made to place roads and highways to segregate neighborhoods. But that was 50-70 years ago. And people move. Some moved out, some moved in, many are no longer with us. It is not worth discussing. If these neighborhoods are blighted by pollution and congestion then fix that problem. Change the traffic patterns. Move trucks and bus routes. We should not be blowing up roads because of what some jerks may have done 70 years ago.

He's just a pissy gay who was an affirmative action woke hire and he knows he is a protected class so being incompetent and lazy doesn't hurt his employment.

PB was with McKinsey for only three years. I honestly don’t understand how he could survive as a viable consultant even for that brief period of time. Most consultancies expect you to pull your own weight and grow the engagements. He just doesn’t exhibit any kind of expertise in anything. He’s lighter than air and a total BS artist.

Well the president for one. I am not a fan of Pete but it does all start with the top and not upstaging your boss.

He has a third attribute. His eagerness to bend over and take one for the team.

I hear Pete Gigmybutt is busy embroidering an old-fashioned sampler to hang over his fireplace.

It has his motto sewn on it...."WELCOME TO MY HOMO SWEET HOMO".

The EPA head commissar was there already. Other than that not sure who is upstaging Brandon, except the person who can actually manage to use stairs going up to airplanes.
