Wait… did George Santos just defend Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg?
@PeteButtigieg & the DOT.The FAA & DOT are not to blame for their failure to service their customers.Scott Kirby needs to reevaluate his role as @united CEO.United canceled numerous flights in the US over the last week.
CEO Kirby even issued an apology after it emerged he’d chartered a private jet for his own travel out of New York, following the cancellations.
Other MAGA Republicans have used airline disruption as a stick with which to beat Buttigieg. Santos clearly thinks the blame for United’s problems lies firmly within the organization.Online, some wondered if this was a rare display of LGBTQ+ solidarity on Santos’ part.Bipartisan LGBTQ+ solidarity?
https://t.co/p9PFHOkhScOver the weekend, Santos and Buttigieg found themselves in rare agreement over something else: The awful homophobia displayed in a recent campaign ad from Florida’s Ron DeSantis.This is not the first time Santos has criticized an airline.
