Tucker Carlson examined the impact of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s obsession with racial equity on the failure of the FAA system Wednesday on last night’s edition of his television show.
“Either because of his innate decency or because he has a nasty sense of humor, Joe Biden made Pete Buttigieg the federal Secretary of Transportation, despite the fact that Pete Buttigieg had no relevant experience with transportation of any kind apart from occasionally riding a bicycle with a little helmet,” Carlson noted.
“This was a huge promotion from unemployment to the White House cabinet,” Carlson said. “And understandably, Mayor Pete was full of vim and high-minded ambition as he started his new job. But soon, very soon, came crushing disappointment.”
Carlson jibed, “Like a homebuyer who discovers that his new house is riddled with termites, Mayor Pete soon learned that the Department of Transportation was on the verge of collapse.”
“As it turned out, the department had a very serious diversity shortage. Deadly serious,” the Fox host said.
“Just months after taking office, Buttigieg located the core of the problem, which, as we now know, was racist roads,” Carlson said, quoting Buttigieg’s infamous line that “There is racism physically built into some of our highways.”
Carlson continued, “And in his voice you heard the iron resolve of a man who has no tolerance for bigotry and asphalt. And yet, at the same time, you also heard a deeply sensitive man, a man who can feel the hate beneath the wheels of his electric vehicle where others might just hear road noise. Mayor Pete decided to stamp out this hate.”
“Now, Mayor Pete, himself, flies private, so he didn’t have a tactile, firsthand experience with our crumbling airports or crowded, stinking planes last refurbished in the Clinton administration,” Carlson noted. “But he knew something more important. He knew that the FAA was beset by structural misogyny and transphobia.”
“And to fix that, Mayor Pete had the FAA announce that the aviation system called Notice to Airmen – that’s the system that keeps pilots up to date on their flights – that system would change immediately.”
The FAA system failed on Wednesday after the Biden administration focused on “racial equity” and “environmental justice,” as reported by Valiant News.
