Pete Buttigieg’s DOT spent $80 billion on DEI grants, delayed air traffic control upgrades: records, industry insiders

And this guy will get serious looks as the 2028 Prez nominee.

When I told you people the democrats had zero bench...boy, was I right. Again.

And no. I never get tired of that.

WASHINGTON — Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg failed to replace outdated air traffic control systems while in office — with his agency instead shelling out tens of billions of dollars on a DEI agenda, according to federal spending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

Since anonymous quotes are Totally Cool and 100% Factual when applied to Trump stuff, we're using that rule here.

“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.

Sounds about right.
