Secretary Pete was busy working in the middle of night after the Bridge-ship tragedy ..

As you may have guessed, lots of Trump MAGA fans were busy during the night also--blaming Pete

@SecretaryPete
I’ve spoken with Gov. Moore and Mayor Scott to offer USDOT’s support following the vessel strike and collapse of the Francis Scott Key bridge. Rescue efforts remain underway and drivers in the Baltimore area should follow local responder guidance on detours and response.

Joe's got the best and brightest working this huge regional disaster.

On edit - This is what a competent Sec/Trans can do. Watch how quick this gets fixed.
