South Bend, Indiana, Mayor-turned-Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg
took a virtual wave of backlash on X after he compared the accomplishments of President Joe BidenÆs administration to the Hoover Dam.
ôIÆm confident that a century from now, future Americans will look back on
the work weÆve doneùmuch as we look at the Hoover Damùand see how the Biden- Harris AdministrationÆs æBig DealÆ for infrastructure made big things possible,ö Buttigieg captioned a video he posted on Tuesday.

ôPresident Biden arrived in office with a sober recognition of the scale of
the problems our country was facing,ö Buttigieg narrated the brief video himself, claiming that it was the Biden administration ù with him in charge
of transportation ù that had corrected the bottlenecks in the supply chain as COVID restrictions began to lift.
Buttigieg went on to repeat the debunked claim that BidenÆs administration
had ôcreatedö millions of jobs û despite the fact that many of the jobs represented people returning to work after COVID rather than new jobs created and that nearly every jobs report in the last year had to be revised downward after the fact.
ôSir, are you high?ö The FederalistÆs Mollie Hemingway posted in response.

ôThe entire theme of this administration has been boasting of being the most incredible, history-making, innovative and celebrated administration of all time, despite no one being able to name a single thing theyÆve done. It is obnoxious, but they keep strutting around àö Chad Felix Greene added.
