Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg was the first openly gay Cabinet member in U.S. history to be confirmed by the Senate.
In my original post I left out "confirmed by the Senate" because it didn't fit in the original thread title. I felt that mentioning his husband standing by his side as he was sworn in seemed more heart felt and relevant.
I know I'm gonna get flamed for this but.........
Really, who the hell cares?? The man is *CLEARLY* not qualified to do the damn job which is all anybody should be caring about. They should NOT care that he's gay, appointed to that position and has his husband in tow. But Awww....isn't that just so cute!!
I am far more qualified to do that job than Pete. As I am a gearhead, I actually LIKE cars and know exactly what is needed to improve/fix the transportation infrastructure. And I'm bi.
ugh! can't believe people are making a fuss over this................
