The Sunday news shows were full of pundits and politicians opining on the latest Supreme Court decisions. Not to be outdone, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, offered an interesting take on the 303 Creative LLC case.
When asked for his thoughts on SCOTUS decision in 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, Pete Buttigieg claims without evidence that Lorie Smith "only went into the wedding business for the purpose of provoking a case like this." pic.twitter.com/Ln6KTqsfbe

Buttigieg claims Lorie Smith, the owner of the web design company, only went into the wedding business to provoke a case like this. There is no evidence that is an accurate summary of her motivations.
Buttigieg only went into the military — where his primary role was destroying US computer hardware — to run for president. https://t.co/CttpLb1RYX

I mean, if Pete can make up crazy claims, other people can do the same. Seems only fair.
How many flights were cancelled this week, Pete? How many vacations ruined?

Maybe Mayor Pete should focus more on his actual job rather than focusing on things having nothing to do with his duties. Or is he being interviewed as a private citizen?

Pete Buttigieg wants bridges to keep collapsing and trains to keep derailing by hiring based on favoring woke categories.

He really ought to be working on the air travel nightmare every holiday and leave free speech issues to the SCOTUS.

You would think there was no transportation problems in America since the guy who is in charge of handling said problems, is on the news talking about events not even in his wheelhouse.
Everything Mayor Pete says is 100% backwards. This is exactly why the patrons chose her bakery. https://t.co/6uzifMTdU4

Speaking of motivations, many people are saying this firm was chosen so the 'aggrieved' could provoke this case.
WHAT. What a REMARKABLY DESPICABLE allegation. My God.

303Creative should sue him personally for this.
— Byron Smith (@Byron4Tradition) July 2, 2023
Hope she sues.
— Redhibiscus (@Red_hibiscus1) July 2, 2023
She should sue him for defamation
— R O S A 🇺🇸🇵🇹 (@rcantz1964) July 2, 2023
Maybe a new lawsuit should be in the works. This time, against Secretary Pete for this disparagement.
Mayor Pete is a liar. He has no earthly idea why Ms. Smith went into the cake business. Check your facts before you accuse people. Arrogant little twerp.

Unless he lives in her brain, he has no idea why she chose to go into the wedding business. It is all baseless conjecture.
Take a flight Buttgigg Oh wait The skies are screwed

He would be better off taking a long walk off a short pier because it's close to impossible to find on time flights right now.
Unless you are trying to claim intolerance to get your 15 mins of fame on the lame stream media outlets by harassing a private business why would you not go elsewhere? Tolerance goes both ways

Exactly. Getting along in society requires both sides to not try and agitate the other. If one business won't serve you, find a better one. That is what makes this a free country.
