TRAIN WRECK: All the Transportation Scandals on Pete Buttigieg's Watch
Free Beacon ^ | 19 February 2023 | Andrew Stiles

Posted on 02/19/2023 9:07:46 PM PST by Conservat1

Who would have thought the mediocre mayor of Indiana’s fourth-largest city would not be a good choice to run the Department of Transportation?'

What happened: Enemy of Freedom™ Pete Buttigieg launched a failed campaign for president of the United States at the age of 37 after serving two terms as mayor of South Bend, the fourth-largest city in Indiana. He was adored by journalists and other out-of-touch white Democrats due to his youthful nerdy gayness and Obama-esque ability to regurgitate platitudes.

Pete said 1000 derailments a year. That means yesterday there were three, and the day before another three, and the day before that another three, and the day before that day another three... etc. But why has nobody heard anything about it! Because he is a liar like the LIAR in Chief. All this administration can do is lie.

And I frankly believe Biden’s dementia is also a lie. I heard him on many occasions be so articulate and put-together that there is no way a person with dementia can be that way... and for years on end. So it’s all choreographed (probably even his walk) because at their root – they are con men and actors.

They think they fool the American people. It’s horsesh!t.

1000 train derailments in 2022?

Their attitude seems to indicate this is part of the plan to destroy America.

If they were capable of shame, they'd be making excuses as to why this problem exists with no plan in place to solve the problem.

If you look closely enough at any bleeding-heart liberal, you’ll find a pervert and a criminal. Their virtue signaling is only a disguise, and all their finger-pointing at conservatives is a distraction.

1,000 derailments a year is probably accurate. Most derailments aren’t at all newsworthy, you’ll only know about them if you’re a railfan.

What’s more important is why this one ended up with a huge fire and a chemical spill. And whether the new management fad of Precision Scheduled Railroading is an inherently risky practice that is to blame.

East Palestine is Xiden’s TMI.

They failed. Miserably.

It’s time we all called them out.

Bootiegig is riding a wave of celebrity of gayness (and that's the only reason he is where he is). He doesn't want to be brought down by the dirty reality of things like train derailments, poison, and death.

That's why he refuses to get involved with this accident or any other.

He obviously believes he must steer clear of anything that will taint his celebrity.

poster boy and example of what we get with the biden inclusive and diversity appointments in government, he’s more interested in white construction workers taking black jobs and gay and queer appointments and protections instead of his job he was hired for...... deliberate incompetence protected and applauded

Rumor is that Mayor Butthead is running for Senate in Indiana - Mike Braun is running for Governor in 2024 leaving the GOP held seat empty. So Far No Dem is running.

Butt-gag should go to work for UPS and put his extensive experience with backdoor deliveries to good use.

Since being “Secretary” of Transportation, Energy, Education, or Housing and Urban Development are basically no-show jobs, it seems unfair to blame Mayor Pete for something like this.

When it happened, he was doing a vital service - which had nothing to do with transportation - giving a press conference to point out that too many white people had construction jobs.

I can believe it. I would also bet that many are so minor that even the railfans miss them, with no damage, just boosting the car back onto the rails
