Pete Buttigieg, US Secretary of Transportation, states the aftermath from Hurricane Helene is shocking and shares that his team is engaged with state leaderships on the ground. Buttigieg also talks about how long it will take to recover the infrastructure damaged by the hurricane, and if lawmakers need to be called back to Congress for funding. He also weighs in on the possible strike from dockworkers along the US East Coast and Gulf. Pete Buttigieg speaks with Kailey Leinz and Joe Mathieu on Bloomberg's "Balance of Power."

@linguaphile42 День назад

Have lived in the Carolinas and hiked in the western part of the state for almost 40 years. These mountain communities are remote even without disaster situations, with spotty Wifi/satellite connections lots of times. Biden admin has extended broadband internet to lots of these rural places, and the coordination of the response has been remarkable, beginning even before the storm. That said, it is an incredible situation with some of the most beloved areas just wiped off the map. An inn that I stayed in is just gone, washed away down the river.

How will these Republican states improve their situations by voting for Trump, a man who wants to defund NOAA and the National Weather Service (no more advanced storm/tornado/flood/hurricane warnings), who doesn’t believe in assisting people who are under insured or can’t afford insurance at all, whose plan for crisis response is “don’t have a crisis”, and whose approach to the poorest people is “Ew, don’t let them touch me!”?

Capitalism.

Strikes are common, its how people inform the companies that there needs to be increase in salary and benefits. Its nothing new, it will probably be over pretty fast, places like mail and shipping are much more impactful than entertainment.

Pathetic is Trump, who politicizes a shocking tragedy to pump up his fragile ego. Trump and Vance - right, project 25 will make it harder for people to get help from Fema. Look it up.

Just saying something doesn't make it so. Pete backs it all up with details and examples to make his points. Most people are too inept to do that.

I understand you being a cult 45 member you really don’t have the mental capacity to understand how the government works or just who in the government is responsible for what. You have too much negativity, such as conspiracy theories and just plain hate to allow any real information and common sense to leak into that MAGA tight brain to absorb. Take your meds and let the adults take care of what you obviously cannot conceive or control.

Hey Pete, how are those charging stations doing in NC, GA, FL??? I should say , singular charging station!!! Going to be without power for many weeks even months…. Those EV owners will go through some walking shoes!!

@Imbatmn57 День назад

The gas stations aren't fairing much better, they also need electricity to pump the gas out of the tanks. Also the gas stations that are up are running out of gas because so many people need it. No method of powering cars are better than the other, thats why emergency plans are important. Electric cars can be charged a small amount using solar panels. Theres even solar panels being developed that will be much more efficient as well as thinner so it can be better integrated into cars.

If the MAGA cult would quit denying not just climate change, but infrastructure bills and turning down 350 million of federal money for Florida alone…maybe this wouldn’t happen. I’m sure that some of those immigrants you don’t want in the country would gladly help redo all the roads to let those trucks get through to supply all the necessities to those affected….since lazy white supremacists only have the energy to hate and destroy humanity.
