OK, I’ve got tons of stuff built up, and this is back from February when “Pothole Pete” (his nickname from his time as Mayor of South Bend, IN) finally deigned to visit E. Palestine where the train wreck (HIS area of expertise) disaster happened.
Of COURSE, people are asking, “what took so long?” but Petey Buttigieg’s “personal time” is a higher priority than lives and property being ruined.
This young reporter from Turning Point has it exactly right and with the right attitude toward someone who seems annoyed that he has to deal with this (I guess he’d rather be virtue-signaling pulling his bicycle out of his SUV to ride the last couple of blocks to work for fawning cameras):
WATCH: Sec. Pete Buttigieg's team FREAKS OUT when asked why it took him almost 3 weeks to come and speak to residents of East Palestine. His press secretary BEGS reporter to turn off the cameras.

Lady, YOU’RE the Press Secretary! You are expected to take questions all the time, every time, and anywhere. I know that there are people who want to control the Narrative and the environment, which is EXACTLY what she was trying to do.
Big #FAIL as she has now invoked the Streisand Effect. So instead of trying to speak the Narrative on the down low, she blew it up. Her annoyed face was wonderful in expressing her ire.
And Chubbs (I can say that as being a former Chubb myself, but he’s got me beat by a couple of magnitudes) that butted in didn’t make it any better. Sorry, high elected officials ARE responsible to us. It’s really too bad that Petey made her take the heat as he just rushed by, also looking annoyed that he, Our Highness Who Checks a Few Diversity Boxes, that others wanted him to take the question instead.
So I’ll include this as I brought it up at the event I was at Wednesday night and chuckles all around to those that heard it:
Challenge: withOUT looking it up, how many can you name? I can only name two.
