When he got his first mortgage the banker said; Congratulations, you’re now a new homowner.
McKinsey was probably a better fit. It always seems like he is focused on creating a progressive organization (or city), and that he is above tending to his constituents basic needs.
You’re prolly right. Purely a symbolic hire as you so aptly described.
If it is Soooo Safe in E/ Palestine..
Did they bring their toddler there for a nice stroll?
You are correct. Sadly, this man only knows how to use the identity he has chosen as some cheep self advertisement. He has , even for a politician, a shruken and dead sense of duty and responsibility as witnessed by his behavior in the East Liverpool business.
I truly don’t care what he does in the privacy of his own home. But the guy is useless in this job.
I am highly confident he was given the gig because he was gay so they could “show off” their gay guy and how open minded they are, and perhaps because of his connections to McKinsey. But the other side of that coin is quite condescending. He was hired for no other reason. He was mayor of a city that only had a tiny stretch of a federal highway running through his city. He knows nothing about the federal transportation system. He was hired just for the optics of having a gay man in the cabinet and they brag about it constantly, even though he is totally unqualified for the job and it shows.
Well said.
Where is Congress? Haul Buttgig up there to testify.
‘noting that he was “taking some personal time” when approached’
Taking “personal time” on an official visit? What a pansy response.
“its mystifying how someone like Pete could worm his way into a noted consultancy like that”
Gotta bump up your DEI rating somehow.
He was getting his résumé checked;he was being setup as the first homosexual president. This was the best that they could do?

The GOP talks about accountability but avoids ever demanding it.
+1
But where would Pete find the time to testify in between breast feeding and his nail appointments?
Pete has a solution for residents of Palestine who are coughing up blood: They need to work on their homophobia.
