we wanted to hear more from pete buttigieg. he is the transportation secretary. stay semigood and join us. he wanted to know what his record on infrastructure was as mayor of south bend. it turns out buttigieg doesn't have a very good track record. the keystone traffic initiative. he reportedly led to the death of an 11-year-old boy. the initiative deactivated in nonessential traffic light and the boy was struck by a truck. host of "the burning truth" in south bend, indiana. casey, thanks for coming on. though schmid talked to earlier before joe biden made this guy in charge of all of our infrastructure but what kind of a job did he do running the infrastructure of south bend? >> first of all i would like to say we are not going to apologize for him. i tried to warn everybody about this. when he was being considered for ambassador to china, that made sense, tucker. when he was made transportation secretary, i think we laughed collectively in my studio for about an hour because he has zero success in infrastructure planning in south bend at all. everything he touch

pete buttigieg is also corrupt.w reporting in the daily mail pete buttigieg excepted $250,000 in gifts from mayoral campaign donors when he was "running" south bend. mayor pete then awarded those donors with $33 million in city contracts. wow! that's kind of old-school corruption! where's the doj? right. josh boswell is a senior reporter a dailymail.com which is trying to keep this man honest. thanks so much for coming on. this is such an old-fashioned example. he's taking cash and then handing out contracts? >> yeah. it's -- i mean it's not sort of a direct one to one like that but the pattern is pretty clear here. you've got 23 companies who are donating hundreds of thousands of dollars to his mayoral campaign, his dnc campaign, and even some to the presidential campaign. and then those same companies are awarded these big multimillion dollar, in some cases, contracts and the city of south bend. the city told me look, pete didn't have anything to do with awarding those contracts at the time. he's the mayor and it'

he picked pete buttigieg, first of some time. deterred by his total demonstrated inability to deal with infrastructure. he has a new plan. he has just announced that he's going to ensure that no one in this country ever again dies in a traffic accident. watch. >> another thing that it's going to take in order to change the trajectory of roadway safety in this country is a single, emphasis shared goal. and today we commit that our goal is this. zero. our goal zero deaths. a country where one day, nobody has to say goodbye to a loved one because of a traffic crash. >> tucker: why stop there? why not just eliminate death itself? it is sad when people die. if you worked at mckinsey you would think the guy could figure out how to human suffering and death. there's no reason life should end, and if your god, and clearly pete buttigieg is, or considers himself to be, why not do that? i'm sure that goal is coming. but in the meantime, he has a very specific plan to a limited all traffic deaths, and that's putting a lot more robot cops on

the strongest person on the bench is pete buttigieg. he can't run as long as he is the secretary of transportation. if he leaves transportation that's a sign he wants to get in. you start running early. barack obama declared his candidacy in february of 2009. that is coming up in terms of this election cycle. one year from now presidential contenders need to declare. >> laura: if pete buttigieg is their great hope republicans are dancing across the country. that's their hope. okay. >> i could see him having a bicycle lane to winning the democratic primary. >> laura: you get the sense that the con shop in the white house is trying to figure out how to turn the page on covid and get our mojo back. biden came out and talked about the jobs reports feeling good. >> this past month we mailed out tens of millions of home tests to deliver to your home. now we are seeing a difference. just in the past 3 weeks, today's extraordinary job report data was collected. the covid crisis has been cut in half in 3 weeks. >> laura: he is now trying to decl

pete buttigieg unveiled his "single ambitious shared goal." >> we commit that our goal is this.try where one day nobody has to say goodbye to a loved one because of a traffic crash. >> the plan cites an 11% increase of speeding related fatalities between 2019 and 2020. part of the solution to the problem, page 32, says one of the governments actions to enable safer speeds is to "promote speed safety cameras as a proven safety countermeasure." that line has led to criticism all over social media with many arguing that speed cameras are a ploy to find more motorists and line the governments pockets. "the cameras can commit errors when it comes to actually ticketing the right offenders. this can be a problem for drivers but the windfall for enforcers. although the intention behind buttigieg's new policies to create safer roads, speed cameras will likely be better at generating large amounts of cash for local governments." new york city councilman backing up telling tucker carlson that during mayor de blasio's term, the number of speed cameras went up from 22 about 1,400 and yet the

apparently back in the day pete buttigieg was involved in what some might call a pay for play scheme. a quarter million bucks in donations and gifts. i wonder what those are from two dozen companies. those exact same companies were then awarded $33 million in city contracts, from the south bend board of public works which, you know, mayor pete appointed the members on that board. so why is this all being dug up now? it happened years ago? it almost seems like someone is purposely going out of their way or her way to smear mayor pete, why? could it have something to do with 2024? it's no slam dunk if biden runs for re-election if he doesn't a slew of ambitious young democrats are waiting in the wings. pay for play pete certainly one of them. and if that's the case, someone, clearly sees him as a threat. someone who also wants joe's job. but who could that be? we don't know anybody in washington who would want the sabotage their friend, right? joining me now "fox & friends" co-host ainsley earhart. ainsley, this has kamala's fingerprints all over it. >> ainsley: wait a minute, jesse, i

they are ignoring pete buttigieg. move a big rig, you need tow truck operators. and those tow truck operators -- they know truckers are not a racist, they. so some of them aren't inclined to help. gary allen told canadian media "we have all the capabilities on our tow trucks to do it, but i don't think anyone would want to." another tow truck operator said even if tow truck operators wanted to help, it would be very hard. "in the end, the truckers get a say on whether you are taking that truck away or not." there are technical reasons for this, it turns out trucks are heavy. they have air brakes and steel belted tires. some of the truckers removed their tires completely. so what now? now is when you start to panic. and they definitely are. this afternoon the prime minister of canada clearly who is fidel castro's illegitimate son, came out from hiding to threaten them directly. watch this. >> if you join the protests because you are tired of covid, you now need to understand that to you breaking laws. the consequences
