Former transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg has been talked about as a potential 2028 Democratic presidential nominee.

Pete Buttigieg was less than thrilled when President Donald Trump called him out Thursday during a news conference.

President Donald Trump slammed former Secretary of Transportation Buttigieg after a deadly collision between a helicopter and a plane near Reagan National Airport.

Pete Buttigieg, former transportation secretary and former South Bend mayor, called Trump's comments during today's press briefing "despicable."

Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg criticized Trump on Thursday for his reaction to the devastating incident after Trump baselessly blamed the Biden administration’s policies for threatening air safety. Buttigieg called out the president for “lying” about the crash in a post on social media platform X.

Trump left more questions than answers in his expletive attacks on Democrats and diversity practices during Thursday's press conference.

Pete Buttigieg criticized Donald Trump's handling of a fatal midair collision, highlighting his own safety record and calling for leadership instead of blame.

In his first news conference since the aircraft collision over the Potomac River, President Donald Trump on Thursday implied that diversity, equity and inclusion programs could be the cause, although an investigation has only just begun into the fatal disaster.

An interview with former Homeland Security official Juliette Kayyem about Trump's efforts to blame the D.C. crash on DEI, his anger at facing scrutiny, and why all this bodes badly about what's to come.

Emergency teams will continue efforts to retrieve the bodies of those who died when a passenger jet and helicopter collided.

I have seen zero evidence to this point that's to suggest that this collision had anything to do with DEI and speculation at this time is highly irresponsible,” said Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., a military helicopter pilot.
