- Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has a habit of going AWOL at the most inopportune times.
- Last year, in the midst of a supply-chain crisis, Buttigieg was nowhere to be found. In fact, he spent nearly two months on paternity leave and he and his husband adopted two newborn babies.
- In late August, as rail contract negotiations boiled to a head, Buttigieg quietly jetted off to Porto, Portugal for a lengthy vacation, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.
