During a speech in Charlotte, North Carolina on Thursday, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg heaped praise on his fellow diversity hire, Vice President Kamala Harris, as they traveled together to promote the administration’s infrastructure agenda.

“It’s my honor to be here today with somebody who did so much to make this infrastructure law possible and that’s Vice President Harris,” Buttigieg gushed. She “traveled this country” and “spent countless hours” helping Biden negotiate with Congress to get the infrastructure bill passed, he stated.

“She worked to make sure that clean school buses, clean water, and environmental justice were included,” Buttigieg continued, “all of which were issues she championed in the Senate as well.” He went on to claim that there are “countless ways in which her presence has made an impact on this monumental legislation.”

As Kamala and Buttigieg toured a Charlotte bus depot, the most ineffective, incompetent vice president in American history jumped in the seat of an electric bus, commented that it had a “new bus smell,” pretended to drive it, and honked the horn. “The wheels on the bus go ’round and ’round,’” she said, cackling hysterically.
