Pete Buttigieg Goes on Emotional, Lie-Filled Rant on Trump’s FAA Standards

Washtenaw Republican Club February 3, 2025

Pete Buttigieg, the failed may­or turned failed pres­i­den­tial can­di­date turned failed trans­porta­tion sec­re­tary now explor­ing a run for U.S. Sen­ate in Michi­gan, is very defen­sive about his record in the Biden regime.

From Bre­it­bart:

For­mer Depart­ment of Trans­porta­tion (DOT) Sec­re­tary Pete Buttigieg called Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump’s remarks on the Wash­ing­ton, DC, heli­copter-plane crash “despi­ca­ble,” and made false state­ments to defend his track record in a rant on social media. […]

Despite his claim that he “drove down close calls” dur­ing his 2021–2025 tenure, a 2023 Fed­er­al Avi­a­tion Admin­is­tra­tion (FAA) review that was ordered fol­low­ing sev­er­al nation­al inci­dents found that “inad­e­quate, incon­sis­tent fund­ing” and staffing short­ages had led to an “ero­sion” of safe­ty stan­dards that made “the cur­rent lev­el of safe­ty unsus­tain­able.”

“Togeth­er, these chal­lenges con­tribute to increased safe­ty risk and should be regard­ed as inci­dent pre­cur­sors,” the report stat­ed.

FAA offi­cials also not­ed that the inci­dents record­ed in the begin­ning of 2023 demon­strat­ed “an increase in the most seri­ous type of run­way incur­sions.”
