[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg...the testicleless former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, since 2012. Buttigieg graduated from Harvard College and, on a Rhodes Scholarship, from Pembroke College, Oxford. From 2007 to 2010, he worked at McKinsey and Company, a consulting firm. From 2009 to 2017 Buttigieg served as an intelligence officer in the United States Navy Reserve, attaining the rank of lieutenant and deploying to Afghanistan in 2014. Buttigieg was first elected mayor of South Bend in 2011 and was reelected in 2015. During his second term, he announced he was gay, which surprised no one. Buttigieg also campaigned for Indiana state treasurer in 2010 and for chair of the Democratic National Committee in 2017, losing both elections. He ran for the Dem nomination in 2020 on the theory that being mayor of a nondescript medium sized city is qualification to run the country. He lost that one too...
suggested in a recent interview that racism is built into the country's highway system.
That's why asphalt is black, you know..,.
| And if Mr. Buttigieg, in his role as mayor of wherever it was, arranged for streets to be paved or pot holes to be filled, that proves he, too, is a racist. |

...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem mschine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family...’s proposed $2 trillion infrastructure plan.
Buttigieg explained that several major highways in the United States negatively affect minority communities.
"Well, if you’re in Washington, I’m told that the history of that highway is one that was built at the expense of communities of color in the D.C. area," he said. "There are stories, and I think Philadelphia and Pittsburgh [and] in New York, Robert Moses famously saw through the construction of a lot of highways."
Buttigieg added that there has been a lack of federal infrastructure projects in black communities throughout history and said it "wasn’t just an act of neglect" but rather a "conscious choice" that the Biden administration hopes to rectify in the new spending package.
Biden touted his plan on Wednesday, saying, "We don’t just fix for today. We build for tomorrow."
"Two hundred years ago, trains weren’t traditional infrastructure either until America made a choice to lay down tracks across the country," he added. "Highways weren’t traditional infrastructure until we allowed ourselves to imagine that roads could connect our nation across state lines."
