$80B Gone: Pete Buttigieg Failed Passenger Safety, Gave DEI Grants Instead

He had 4 years and squandered it on DEI projects

Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg had 4 years and a budget of $80B. With that much money, he could have at least started to upgrade the air traffic control system. Instead, he gave out money for DEI projects. He completely failed passenger safety, and as far as some of us are concerned, he has blood on his hands.

When a train carrying lethal chemicals derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, leaving the residents to face horrific aftereffects, Buttigieg did nothing but pay lip service. He also spent time railing over “racist highways.” He also took flak over flying on taxpayer funded jets. Buttigieg even took his male partner on a military aircraft to attend a sporting event…in The Netherlands.

Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg failed to replace outdated air traffic control systems while in office — with his agency instead shelling out tens of billions of dollars on a DEI agenda, according to federal spending records and airline industry insiders.

In one meeting, Buttigieg — who is said to be eyeing a 2028 presidential run — told industry executives that air traffic control upgrades would just allow them to fly more planes, “and so why would that be in his interest?” sources said.

What his department was really interested in was handing out hundreds of diversity, equity and inclusion grants totaling more than $80 billion over four years — at least half of the DOT’s entire budget for a typical fiscal year, records show.

“He was definitely pushing an agenda,” an air industry official said, noting the transportation secretary had “little to no interest” and took “definitely zero action” toward air traffic control modernization. New York Post

Faced with the truth about one of that show what happened. Pete Buttigieg did nothing of any substance while in office except waste taxpayer money.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

And Pete Buttigieg wants to be President. Stop that madness before it starts.
