Paging Pothole Pete Buttplug. Buttplug to the white courtesy phone please.

He's a slacker just like Kamel. The Brandon administration is completely incompetent and corrupt.

Geez. What's up with the rail infrastructure in this country?

What's up with the infrastructure in this country period? Didn't the DEMS vote for a massive spending bill? I thought revamping the infrastructure was included in that bill.

Whenever a politician talks about an infrastructure bill, hold onto your wallet, and don’t expect to see much in the way of infrastructure

I thought for sure that there was a recent "infrastructure bill"; while Pelosi was still in charge.

If it passed, it looks like Buttgig is right on top of things.

Has there been a transportation incident or crisis that he hasn't bungled?
