At a conference this morning, Transportation Secretary Peter Buttigieg, aka Pothole Pete, failed to mention the 151-car train derailment in Ohio. It led to a controlled burn sending some poisonous gases into the air in East Palestine, Ohio, and in the direction of Pennsylvania and New York City. Some people complained of fish and livestock dying after the plumes permeated the air.
Buttigieg did, however, say too many white people work construction. He’s still on the racist jobs, racist roads, racist everything. His solution is to hire people by race.
He should really address this with the unions. Apparently, he thinks blue-collar jobs are too privileged.

Mr. Buttigieg, the son of a famous Marxist professor, seems to have strange priorities. Forget derailments, but look for ways to have fewer whites in blue-collar jobs?
When asked about his acceptance of the transportation secretary position, I schitt you not Pete Buttigieg responded “I’ve always liked trains.”

USA Today reports: on the derailment
Days after crews released and burned toxic chemicals carried by a train that wrecked in Ohio, residents were concerned about toxic substances that could be lingering in their evacuated neighborhoods.
About 50 cars, including 10 carrying hazardous materials, derailed in a fiery crash Friday in East Palestine, according to rail operator Norfolk Southern and the National Transportation Safety Board.
Vinyl chloride was released into the air Monday from five of those cars before crews ignited it to get rid of the highly flammable toxic chemicals in a controlled environment, creating a dark plume of smoke.
The chemicals are still lingering, people are finding dead fish and animals, and it’s heading for New York City. We can’t speak to the other chemicals.
The derailment should have been mentioned:
Probably the best video about what happened in Pennsylvania/Ohio and it’s pretty mind blowing. pic.twitter.com/VbG0kzplRs

Correction: It wasn’t a 50-car train. It was 151.
Buttigieg is a racist. The “White” construction workers this homosexual is whining about are Hispanic.
Petey Buttplug is one of the most idiotic fools in the Biteme administration if not the most stupid of a ship of fools that the Sniff has thrown together and I mean a lot of fools from general fat ass Milley to winken
Blinken and nod to Ma Cackeles Hairs to dr Lips Jill.
Buttache needs to stick to screwing up the transportation department and leave construction alone.
Leave it to Peter prefers big black, burly men.
There’s probably no job more egalitarian than that of a construction worker – either do the job asked of you, or hit the road. At one time blacks predominated as construction labor in the South. In fact, Davis-Bacon was enacted to prevent Southern blacks from emigrating to Northern states and taking the place of union construction workers on government jobs in the 1930s. As someone who has personally been on hundreds of construction sites in Arizona I can attest to the fact that at least 50% or more of the workers – and the supervisors – are Mexican Americans, and they constitute probably 80 to 90% in the roofing, masonry and concrete trades. I doubt Buttplug has ever visited an actual construction site on anything other than a ceremonial groundbreaking.
A decent USA, which we are not, and far from, would not allow such people to get into positions of power or stay in those positions.
Pete is unqualified for his position. He cannot speak with integrity about job placement.
Maybe later he can come with an Obama-like “white people did not build this”.
Apparently he doesn’t visit very many construction sites. At least not in SoCal.
Exactly. Ten hispanics to every white, and a thousand to every black. Never saw a black on a construction site. Saw one asian, but he was the architect.
Ever notice after a looting spree, the only thing left on the shelves are work boots and gloves?
Buttingieg might be right, after all, too many whites have created too many things (i.e. the internet, computer, cell phone, airplane, rocket, light bulbs, designed dams, designed nuclear reactors, the electric car, AC & DC electricity, solar energy, heart transplants, submarines, skyscrapers, etc.,), it’s time we let blacks design, develop, and invent things for a change……we need to give blacks a chance to contribute to society if they can….
Too many whites in construction? How bout too many lazy blacks not wanting to woark hard enough to hang with the average construction worker? How bout almost nop fags in construction cause they would just HATE to break a nail or mess up their purty hair. Buttbuddy should never have been appointed to a job he has no business doing, and is barely fit to stay in this country. Fags are all sick and diseased, and blacks are such whiny bitches it’s hard to ever see them as socially redeemable in any way.
Buttigieg should lead by example and give his job to a black person. Typical liberal that tells others what to do but doesn’t do it themselves.
The only jobs he gives are knob jobs.
NOTHING is stopping the bro’s from going to school, hell, whitey is begging them to, even begging to PAY FOR IT FOR THEM !!! Learn a trade, and they WILL make millions, just like their white counterparts whom they want to hate on so much.
Then again, white people live in castles and mansions and cathedrals and and… then goto haiti and look at THEIR quality of life. Thank you I think I’ll stick with the white builder.
The problem is that most construction sites are a drug free work place! On many government projects it’s required my law. Non-government projects have to do drug testing for insurance and liability reasons. Minorities don’t seem to do well with drug testing.
Before big butt Buttigieg mouths off, he needs to get the facts of the situation. But then, Democrats don’t care about facts. Better yet, get people in Government who have had real jobs and have a clue!
I can’t understand how burning off Vinyl Chloride is a good idea! Why was so much Vinyl Chloride being transported at once? So much for the EPA protecting air quality!
Burning lessens the hazard, this way it’s ‘disposed of’, it’s ‘cleaned up’ the pollution essentially ‘floats away’. We used to have a saying in the compliance world, “The solution to pollution is dilution’.
The reason they ship so much is that, it is generally safe, and they use it that fast. A big PVC producing plant, think PVC drain pipes for example. May burn thru a train car in a few days.
You should really watch one of these long trains one of these days, and really take a LOOK at the things they ship. I have seen train cars with chemicals go by that you think, OMG, if this car and that car were to mix? and they are separated by just one car of something equally as dangerous sometimes. It makes you cringe.
Another problem for some on govt work projects is having to pass a background check to get on the site
nothing is stopping them from applying
