Fed up Pete Buttigieg SMACKS DOWN Marjorie Taylor Greene

INTERVIEW: Brian interviews Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg about how to approach a Democratic Party split over Joe Biden, his response to certain Republicans like Marjorie Taylor Greene and JD Vance who tried to blame Democrats for Trump’s shooting, and his reaction to even Republicans trying to distance themselves from Project 2025.

Brother, I subbed to your channel because I wanted to hear both sides of the story seeing as how I do not claim either side. All you do it report on trump. How about you say what good things Biden is doing, or what good things ANYONE in your party is doing. Because while no one is claiming Trump to be a saint, they are backing up what he is saying with results and proof. Thats what you need to do as a democrat. Promote positivity for your party by showing the good they have put into policy. You honestly sound like a trump hater more than anything.
