Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg will finally go to East Palestine, Ohio on Thursday, February 24, three weeks after the toxic derailment and 18 details after a controlled release that gave us an unbelievable black cloud of poison. Please note that it is one day after a visit by President Donald Trump. It is noteworthy that it will be just over 36 hours after Buttigieg told a Daily Caller reporter that he was taking some personal time.

The definition for the Biden Administration is “Ineptocracy“:

(Noun) a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. Adjective would be Ineptocratic.
Usage: Our current Ineptocracy is driving me to drink. The current Ineptocratic government is driving me to drink.

Buttigieg, Harris, Mayorkas, Austin. All of them probably got A’s in school and were teacher’s pet, but none of them could think outside the box and problem solve to save their lives. They each also possess an arrogant condescension that makes them each particularly unlikeable. For Austin, maybe, it wasn’t always thus. He was loved at the 82nd Airborne. Buttigieg and the rest have always been contemptible scuts.

Two days ago, Buttigieg sent a strongly worded letter to the President of Norfolk Southern that was a positive DaVinci of blame shifting:

In a sharply worded, three-page letter sent Sunday to Norfolk Southern Railway president and CEO Alan Shaw, Buttigieg accused the Atlanta-based company of repeatedly prioritizing profit over safety — a problematic ethos within the larger transportation industry that the secretary said has contributed to a number of derailments over the years.
“The derailment of a Norfolk Southern train carrying hazardous materials near East Palestine, Ohio, has upended the lives of numerous residents, many of whom continue to worry about their immediate health and safety as well as the long-term effects of the dangerous materials released near their homes,” Buttigieg said. “They fear for their future, as do thousands of American communities and neighborhoods that sit along railway lines.”
“The future must not resemble the past when it comes to your company’s and your industry’s follow-through on support for stringent safety policies,” he added. “Major derailments in the past have been followed by calls for reform — and by vigorous resistance by your industry to increased safety measures. This must change.

The secretary said he will be laying out new steps for companies to improve safety and plans to urge Congress to raise the cap on fines for those that violate regulations. He also rebuked Norfolk Southern and the industry writ large for their opposition to more stringent safety rules.
“Rather than support these efforts to improve rail safety, Norfolk Southern and other rail companies spent millions of dollars in the courts and lobbying members of Congress to oppose common-sense safety regulations, stopping some entirely and reducing the scope of others,” Buttigieg said, specifically noting the Trump administration’s repeal of a 2015 rule that mandated the use of electronically controlled pneumatic (ECP) brakes on train cars.

We don’t know yet what exactly happened but it was Donald Trump’s fault.

Yesterday morning, Pete Buttigieg was on CBS Red & Blue Streaming Service where he admitted that he learned a lesson about not speaking out earlier after the derailment. Pity, he couldn’t have learned that lesson about the Supply Chain Crisis or the Baby Formula Crisis. Slow learner, Pete?

Then, last night, Buttigieg and his husband Chasen were interrupted in their “private time” by Jennie Taer of the Daily Caller News Foundation. After an amazing display of arrogant condescension, Buttigieg creepily asked to take Miss Taer’s picture. So he could send his government goons after her:

That gives me a huzz

Three weeks and a kernel of empathy short, Pete Buttigieg is going to East Palestine, Ohio with ideas:

U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will meet with East Palestine residents on Thursday, the same day the National Transportation Safety Board is expected to release the initial findings on the Feb. 3 Norfolk Southern train derailment.
Earlier this week, Buttigieg said the incident underscores the need to strengthen rules and ensure railroads are held accountable for any mistakes.
“I would say there’s a window of opportunity with Congress now, after what happened to East Palestine, that I do not think existed before,” Buttigieg told reporters Monday. “We need to use that window of opportunity to raise the bar.”

Pete doesn’t need to learn anything, indeed, he cannot learn anything from the residents of East Palestine, he knows everything. I know you are as over these patronizing twats as I am.
