So not only is “Mayor Pete” Buttigieg incompetent and unqualified for the job as Transportation Secretary, he’s a fraud and hypocrite on global warming BS too. Mayor Pete is now under investigate for excessive usage of private jets while ignoring disasters like East Palestine, and whining about global warming and “white construction workers”. Is there anyone in this Biden cabinet who is actually qualified for their jobs? Or are they all just diversity hires?
Pete Buttigieg has flown around America at taxpayers’ expense, but perhaps not always for the benefit of those to whom he is accountable.
The Transportation Department’s internal watchdog announced Monday that it will soon audit the Biden cabinet official in an effort to determine whether the frequent flyer has used government planes to satisfy private whims and when cheaper alternatives were available.
This investigation comes as the result of efforts by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) to determine whether Buttigieg has been flagrantly flaunting the rules for use of Federal Aviation Administration planes. Rubio noted he had been alerted to the potential of abuse by a Dec. 12 Fox News report.
The DOT Office of Inspector General announced in a letter Monday that it would be conducting “an audit to determine whether the Office of the Secretary complied with Federal regulations, policies, and procedures regarding executive travel on DOT aircraft.”
Charles Ward, principal assistant inspector general for audits and evaluations at the DOT, noted, “Senator Marco Rubio requested that we determine whether the Secretary’s use of Government aircraft for domestic and international travel complied with all applicable Federal regulations and DOT policies and procedures.”
