There is Pete Buttigieg, though he's an incompetent hack.

The best and most accomplished Transportation secretary in U.S. History and you call him incompetent? Interesting take, can you name any former Transportation secretary that was even half as good as Pete?

Uh...really? We've got planes running into each other while on the runways. I wouldn't run around excited about his tenure in transportation.

How is the Minister of Transport responsible for cockups on runways?

It's kind of his job to put regulations in place to prevent that. Weird it became kind of an epidemic on his watch.

In what world is the Minister taking care of low level things like that? That's like blaming the commander in chief because a squad got deployed to the wrong camp.

So your issue with him is ground traffic at airports?

Good news, they are working to solve that issue where the previous Transportation Secratary ignored the issue.

"We're trying to take a bigger look and do some deeper analysis to see what's going on," Buttigieg told USA TODAY. "It's enough that I'm concerned."

Buttigieg noted that there have been a variety of causes, such as pilot error and controller training.

"That suggests that there's something happening more broadly, perhaps something related to the increase in activity and demand that took place very quickly after the sudden slowdown around COVID."

Acting FAA administrator Billy Nolen, however, told reporters following a Senate Commerce Committee hearing on Wednesday that it was not clear if runway incursion incidents were on the rise.

"It’s a good question," he said, reports CNN. "We’ll take a look at these near misses and see if there are lessons to be learned."

That's way too harsh. Pete is an opportunist, and opts for politics over principle to a degree that made me dislike him in the last primary... but he's not incompetent.

Incompetent is the correct word. He's a soft R rather than a D.

Have you seen what he has done with the airlines and train disasters?

Did you miss all the news going on with airlines/trains?

He is incompetent and just like any other politician with no real values, just like all the democrats and republicans.

They give in to the fame and the wealthy class.

Sorry, what do you think a transportation secretary does? Do you think he's an air traffic controller?
