Pete Buttigieg has brought star power and loads of Twitter followers to the Transportation Department. It's not uncommon for political stars and former White House contenders to land in a presidential Cabinet, but they usually don't call their new home the Transportation Department. Secretary Pete, however, has embraced the role. His new staff, the White House, and some Republicans are giving Buttigieg high marks. Here's how Secretary Buttigieg plans to transform the department. lol star power

Saying that Pete is anything even remotely resembling cool is prehaps even more of an outageous statement than the WAPO article saying child poverty has been half solved.

If the secretary of transportation is someone that like more than 5% of the country can pick out of the lineup that does probably qualify as star power lol

Probably the smartest person in the dubya and trump admins.

There is no actual real world examples of it working but a lot of people still believe in it because they make lots of money off it.

I'm fine with Wonk because the only people that use it are political journalists who are so dumb they look up to Paul Ryan as a smart guy and John McCain as a nice guy (which is basically all of them). It's so hyper specialized you can tell exactly where someone gets their news if they use it and aren't paid to write for an OPED page.

Probably not the best place to put this, but can anyone give me a run down on Vaush. My ex business partner/best friend was always more the moderate of us and I haven't talked to him in years, stumbled on his twitter and he seems to really like/rt Vaush. However, know very little about him.
