Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe.

And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.

When the President uses federal law enforcement for his personal revenge, it puts all of us in danger.

No veteran should have their social security number leaked, let alone passed to a political opponent by the government.

Pete Buttigieg in the UK talking about summoning people into a shared national project to face challenges like climate or AI, that can only be faced through collaboration: “What we’re up against as a country is not each other.”

What happens next is up to all of us - leaders and ordinary citizens alike.

In responding to this horrific violence, the most important categories aren't left and right, they are about helping versus hurting.

We should heed and amplify the voices who are helping.

Buttigieg: "We are not getting the leadership we need to bring this country together from the White House ... in order to deprive political violence of its power, we have to reject anyone who would try to exploit political violence. The response to this cannot be for the government to crack down."

If we are to deprive political violence of its power, we must reject anyone who commits or promotes it - and also reject any move to exploit it.

GREAT article: “Pete Buttigieg doesn’t pander. He listens. He talks. He uses the word “bullshitting” approvingly.
And he offers something that feels rare on the left: a comfort with discomfort. A willingness to meet people where they are, not just where Democrats wish they’d be.”

The Trump administration is canceling the DOT’s rule to get passengers compensation for extreme airline delays - just the latest example of them siding with corporations and against customers.

Pete Buttigieg responds to JD Vance’s racist comments, and talks about how he considers both his Maltese immigrant dad and his mom to be equally American.
“Everyone who is here is part of the same national project.”

🧵Pete is a grown-ass man who can handle criticism if he misses the mark -which luckily is very rare because he’s a thoughtful, erudite guy.
Instead of shutting down real concerns from certain minorities to defend him, we can listen & provide evidence of his work, values & ideas.

Pete Buttigieg wants Democrats to aim for a landslide win.

Pete Buttigieg: “The Trump administration is surrendering to China right and left. [….] If you give those markets up to them, the result is they will win.”

Pete has been talking about the danger of letting the “Chinese model” win as a political system over democracy, for years.

For Pete Buttigieg, in order to help Trump’s supporters fully break trust with him, the discussion has to be in terms of how everyday life gets directly affected by an autocrat and his incompetent team.

Academic discussions of freedom & democracy can be had after establishing those facts.

Pete Buttigieg: “The only antidote to a politics of fear is a politics of courage.”

Pete Buttigieg has been on The Breakfast Club almost ten times, each of them to have a long conversation. Running for President, as Sec of Transportation, not running… he just shows up to communicate with people. And it’s appreciated. More Dem politicians should be interested in doing this.

When it comes to the airline industry, Sean Duffy and Pete Buttigieg are very much not the same kind of transportation secretary.

“I was a tough regulator. […] My replacement is an airline lobbyist.”

Pete Buttigieg winning A rated presidential polls? Must be a day ending in y.

I’d like to watch a conversation between Pete Buttigieg and Colbert after the show is done. Both out of their respective “offices” free to talk about anything, and they’ve always had great rapport.

Is this the beginning of the countdown to President JD Vance? Because I’ve never seen Pete Buttigieg dislike someone more, and I’d welcome him getting rid of Vance in 2028.

Pete as surrogate for the Harris campaign 👇

“I’m not rich, I’m not poor, so I don’t care about the new Republican bill 🤷”

“Putting it into tax cuts for the wealthy is not like investing in roads. It does not pay for itself over time.”

As Pete Buttigieg explains here, ALL Americans will be affected by it.

Listen to Pete Buttigieg: “Being American is a civic identity.”

This is what true patriotism sounds like.

I hope Democrats insist on making it very clear that Republicans are intentionally setting a ticking timeline for their political advantage, without care for its consequences on their country or fellow Americans. That’s not what you do as a legislator when you love your country.
