    Mayor Buttigieg Runs for President While His City Bleeds What the media isn’t report

    Mayor Buttigieg Runs for President While His City Bleeds

    What the media isn’t reporting about a 2020 candidate from a failed city.

    April 5, 2019
    Daniel Greenfield


    Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.

    On March 31, a South Bend grandma brought her grandson to the hospital. The 11-month-old baby boy had been shot. His grandmother’s car had also taken fire. It was another early morning in South Bend.
    Around the same time, Mayor Buttigieg, was toting up the $7 million in donations from his charm offensive as his bid for the 2020 Democrat nomination got underway. The national media never bothered reporting the shooting of an 11-month-old boy in the city he was supposed to be running, but instead confined its coverage of South Bend matters to a publicity stunt wedding officiated by Buttigieg.
    The horrifying shooting of an 11-month-old boy on the millennial mayor’s watch was not an unusual incident. In the last few days, even as the media was gushing over Buttigieg’s presidential ambitions, two Indiana University South Bend players were injured in a shooting on Notre Dame Avenue, a blind date ended in a shooting, and yet another shooting added to the bloody toll in the real South Bend.
    Those are quite a few shootings for a city of barely 100,000 people. But South Bend is a violent place.
    While Chicago is notorious for its murder rate, in 2015, Buttigieg’s South Bend actually topped Chicago’s 16.4 homicides per 100,000 people with a homicide rate of 16.79 per 100,000 people. Those numbers put Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s city on the list of the top 30 murder capitals in the country for the year.
    In January, three shootings in one week killed two teens and left a woman paralyzed from the waist down. In one summer week, the casualties included a 12 and a 13-year-old. Last year, a man shot 6 people when he opened fire on 50 partygoers in a house and was sentenced to 100 years in jail.
    By 2017, shootings had risen 20% on Mayor Buttigieg’s watch. Rapes increased 27% and aggravated assaults rose from 183 in 2013, the year before Buttigieg took office, to a stunning 563 assaults.
    It’s hard to know which are flying faster, bullets in South Bend or dollars into Buttigieg’s campaign.
    Some of these stories, particularly the recent shootings of two baseball players which shocked Indiana University, should have been covered by the national media, which instead chose to broadcast Buttigieg’s publicity stunt of officiating at a pregnant woman’s wedding in a hospital. Had the media stuck around, it could have reported on the trail of shooting victims making their way into the hospital.
    But reporting on an 11-month-old being shot in their hot new candidate’s city wouldn’t be as much fun.
    The media’s bias has never been subtle, but its disinterest in a presidential candidate’s track record has never been this blatant. Mayor Buttigieg’s candidacy is being covered as if he weren’t the mayor of an actual city with actual problems. Instead his prospects have been covered purely in terms of his identity, a gay millennial, his past career before taking office, and his current witticisms and applause lines.
    At no point in time does the media stop to tell the viewers and readers it is regaling with stories of Mayor Buttigieg’s charm that he runs the most dangerous city in Indiana, recently rated as one of the “worst cities to live”, where nearly half the residents live at the poverty level, and even the water is bad.
    These are significant data points in the track record of a politician aspiring to run the entire country.
    The media keeps asking Mayor Buttigieg which of its wishlist of radical socialist policies he’s willing to sign on to, the Green New Deal, eliminating private health insurance, and freeing more convicts, rather than asking him which policies he used to try and solve problems in South Bend. And how they worked.
    Mayor Pete Buttigieg has tried to pass off South Bend’s crime problem as a national issue. But South Bend’s violent crime rates, double the Indiana and American average, run counter to national trends.
    Buttigieg responded by doubling down on Group Violence Intervention, a trendy community outreach strategy to gang members, which despite being widely touted by the media, doesn’t work. Gimmicks, ranging from AI to wonkery, were rolled out and the shootings, the rapes and assaults have continued.
    Mayor Buttigieg excels at buzzwords and gimmicks. He’s just terrible at actually running a city.
    That’s why property crime in South Bend is rising. It’s why the city is overrun with gangs. It’s why South Bend is poor, blighted and miserable. Violence is just one of the many symptoms of Buttigieg’s failures.
    South Bend’s top employers are the local schools and hospitals, and the local government. And a local casino. Unemployment and taxes are higher than average. Meanwhile the average income is below $20,000. The poverty rate is 25%. African-American poverty rates are double. Hispanic poverty rates are 10% higher than the national average. And even Asian-Americans are poorer than usual in South Bend.
    Buttigieg’s failed city is a tragic counterpart to Lake Wobegon where everything is below average.
    The media has ignored the reality in South Bend while touting Buttigieg as a rival for the hearts of Rust Belt voters. But Buttigieg hasn’t won by winning over traditional Rust Belt voters. South Bend’s white population has dropped steadily on his watch and the city is on track for majority minority status. The remaining white population is skewed toward a white lefty elite coming for its educational institutions.
    South Bend isn’t a typical Rust Belt city. It’s a typical blue city, divided sharply between poor minorities and a leftist elite without any of the culture or tech industries that keep New York or Los Angeles going. Its traditional population has been leaving steadily and that departure only accelerated during Buttigieg’s disastrous time in office.
    Much has been made of Buttigieg winning reelection by 80%. This isn’t a testament to his unique charisma. Democrats have had a lock on the mayorality in South Bend for two generations.
    The media cheers that Buttigieg won 80% of the vote. It neglects to mention that it was 8,515 votes. That’s about the 8,369 votes that came in during the primaries. Buttigieg raised $337,161 dollars while his Republican opponent, Kelly Jones, had raised $584 dollars. The millennial wunderkind needed $40 bucks a vote while his unknown Republican opponent managed at around a quarter a vote.
    Like South Bend’s poverty and crime statistics, these are figures that the media doesn’t report because it would reveal that their shiny new candidate is a hollow façade with nothing inside except spin.
    Mayor Buttigieg isn’t winning 80% because he’s universally beloved. That percentage isn’t a testament to his popularity, but to a political system in which hardly anybody except a few lefties bothers to vote.
    The truth about “Mayor Pete” is that he’s the son of a Marxist prof working in Notre Dame who used the death throes of a dying city to polish his brand and then jump into the 2020 race over dead bodies.
    South Bend is a human tragedy. And while Buttigieg isn’t solely responsible for his woes, he has exploited it, instead of trying to fix it, using buzzwords and gimmicks to build a national brand.
    That’s something he has in common with fellow failed hipster mayor and 2020 candidate, Cory Booker.
    But Senator Booker was at least clever enough to put a little distance between his tenure in Newark and his 2020 bid. Mayor Buttigieg is betting that the national media won’t bother looking at South Bend.
    So far he’s been proven right.
    The media keeps touting Buttigieg’s Ivy League credentials, his identity as a gay politician, and his charm. When it mentions South Bend, it’s only to claim that he “turned it around” and that he won his last election by 80%. South Bend hasn’t been turned around. Downtown has gotten a hipster revamp, while the rest of South Bend chokes on crime, violence and misery. But Buttigieg knows that the national media will never bother doing more than reporting on new bike paths and an organic grocery.
    The 11-month-old boy who came into the hospital with a wound in his shoulder won’t catch their eye. But as Mayor Buttigieg keeps raising money hand over fist, South Bend continues to bleed and die.
    And Buttigieg is hoping that he can sneak into the White House before the blood gets on his hands.

    Latest talking-head Democrat contender for POTUS 2020, Pete Buttigieg blames God for making him homosexual while condemning and questioning Trump’s faith

    (Natural News) If you’re the type of person who believes all of the hype about the mainstream media’s latest flavor of the week, Pete Buttigieg, then you probably think he’s the greatest thing since sliced bread – the next Leftist “savior” who needs to be elected president in 2020 in order to “resist Trump.” But this joke of a candidate is just another run-of-the-mill, fake news-spreading blasphemer with absolutely nothing to offer Americans beyond the usual far-Left talking points and Trump-bashing quips – a quintessential Democrat, in other words.

    Though the fake news brigade is working really hard to brand him as something supernaturally amazing, Buttigieg is basically just another carbon copy of the dozens of other Democrats currently vying for the Oval Office in 2020 – except that he’s a white man who’s married to another man, which means he’s the Leftist media’s latest “golden child” to be worshiped and adored as a progressive political miracle.
    When Buttigieg isn’t busying himself spreading long-debunked fake news about President Donald Trump on Twitter, he apparently keeps himself busy pretending to be a Christian – and chastising real Christians for adhering to the tenets of the Word of God, unlike himself. You see, Buttigieg has convinced himself that being a homosexual is not only perfectly in-line with Biblical Christianity, but he also blames the Creator of the universe for supposedly making him that way.
    Ironically, Buttigieg has a very narrow view of what it means to be a Christian in 2019 – and in his opinion, President Trump doesn’t fit the bill. In casting his theocratic vision on numerous different occasions, Buttigieg has openly judged our Commander-in-Chief as a “hypocrite,” assuming the position of God himself in condemning our President as not truly being of the faith.
    “I’m reluctant to comment on another person’s faith, but I would say it is hard to look at this president’s actions and believe that they’re the actions of somebody who believes in God,” Buttigieg is quoted as saying, spewing the very same type of intolerance that he and other members of the LGBT Mafia accuse others of doing.
    “I just don’t understand how you can be as worshipful of your own self as he is and be prepared to humble yourself before God. I’ve never seen him humble himself before anyone.”

    Judge not, lest ye be judged – right, Buttigieg?

    It’s rather humorous to watch far-Left lunatics like Buttigieg pretend to occupy the moral high ground in their condemnation of not only President Trump, but also his supporters – whom Buttigieg has also decided to judge as “hypocrites” for supporting both him and his policies.
    Twisting scripture out of context, as Leftists notoriously do, Buttigieg ranted about how President Trump and his supporters act in ways that he thinks are “not consistent with anything I hear in scripture or church where it is about lifting up the least among us and taking care of strangers,” going on to liken strangers to “immigrants” – whom, like all other Leftist politicians, he deceptively lumps together with illegal aliens.
    This, of course, was part of Buttigieg’s fake news tweet on Twitter, in which he falsely implied that President Trump once referred to all “immigrants” as “animals” – when, in fact, he was actually referring to MS-13 gang members who violently assault and murder innocent Americans for sport.
    “Here’s a thought: When you are living a life in open defiance to God, you might not want to attack the faith of others,” wrote John Nolte for Breitbart News, calling out Buttigieg for his open rebellion against God.
    “… here’s a guy lecturing others about Christianity when he doesn’t even understand the basics of the faith and when he supports the infanticide of abortion – which violates nothing less than the sixth commandment,” Nolte further added.

    2020 baby? Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg says he and his husband Chasten are 'hoping to have a little one soon'

    South Bend, Indiana mayor and 2020 contender Pete Buttigieg revealed that he and his husband, Chasten Glezman Buttigieg, are "hoping to have a little one soon," while speaking at a rally in Brooklyn, New York on Monday night.
    The 37-year-old mayor made the comment while answering a question from a supporter on paid family leave.
    "We're hoping to have a little one soon, so I have a personal stake in this one, too," Buttigieg said to cheers from the crowd. "We should have paid parental leave, and we need to find a way to have paid leave for taking care of parents or anyone else who needs caregiving as well."
    Buttigieg elaborated on the topic of fatherhood in a Monday night interview with MSNBC host Rachel Maddow. He said running for president has "slowed down the path a little bit" to becoming a parent.
    "My husband, he is made for a lot of things. He is a great educator. He has become a great public figure, coming out of the gate," Pete Buttigieg said. "He is going to be an amazing father. I can't wait to see — I hope I will be good at it, too. I can't wait to see him have that chance."
    Chasten's intimate social media musings and polished speeches have recently prompted glowing media coverage and declarations that the 29-year-old is "winning the 2020 spouse primary."

    Fake Buttigieg Accuser: ‘I Was Set Up By Jacob Wohl’ (EXCLUSIVE)

    Shameful behavior from Wohl, if proven true.

    Published 4 hours ago on Apr 29, 2019
    By Tom Pappert



    The college student originally believed to have accused Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg of sexual assault has exclusively told Big League Politics that he was “set up” by known hoaxer Jacob Wohl. In Facebook messages exchanged between this journalist and Hunter Kelly, the student who had his identity used to accuse Buttigieg, Kelly revealed that he was “set up” by Wohl after meeting with him this month under false pretenses.
    I was approached by a political figure to come to DC to discuss political situations from the standpoint of a gay Republican,” Hunt wrote in his official statement. “When I arrived they discussed Peter Buttigieg and started talking about how they would be working on a campaign against him.
    He says he then woke up the next day to learn his name was used to spread a false rape accusation against Buttigieg.
    When asked by Big League Politics for the identity of the person who used his identity, Kelly informed us it was Wohl.
    “No one stole my identity. I was set up by Jacob Wohl.
    Kelly intends to release a lengthier public statement in the coming days.
    Wohl was banned from Twitter earlier this year after telling the media he planned to create a series of fake Twitter accounts to spread lies and disinformation about the Mueller investigation and President Donald J. Trump’s political opponents.
    According to reports, his plan was to circulate false rumors accusing Robert Mueller of sexual impropriety and sexual assault.
    After his ban, he was allegedly caught making false death threats against himself in another effort to create a hoax and spread fake news, and possibly to garner sympathy after his Twitter ban.
    If Kelly’s accusations are true, this would mark a new low for the beleaguered Wohl family.
    Big League Politics attempted to contact the Wohl family for comment on this story but did not receive a response in time for publication.
