It’s a little funny, in an ironic way. Much was made of homosexual Pete Buttigieg, together with his husband, using a gender-binary surrogate to become parents. President Trump nominates Sean Duffy to be Buttigieg’s replacement; Duffy has nine kids.
President Trump has announced the nomination of former Wisconsin Congressman, Sean Duffy, to be Secretary of the Department of Transportation.

I quietly hoped Sean would be found somewhere in the Trump administration.
Duffy 2028
JD Vance 2028.
Let him earn it.
Crucible as job interview.
MAGA to the Max or bust.
Furthermore, I consider the Derp State must be destroyed!!
I hope he gets some meaningful visible projects/assignments as VP
Absolutely.
The Apprentice: Empire Edition.
I’m very curious about where Byron Donald’s and Ric Grenell will be slated. It seems like Trump has already taken too many R’s from the House. Maybe Grenell liked being an ambassador. The IK could sure use a good detox from our censorship and immigration influences since 2008.
Or maybe he’ll be put in charge of negotiating peace in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Maybe he’s keeping Ric for FBI Director, after he fires Wray !
I kind of hoped they would come back to WI and run for governor. But that ship has sailed.
Considering that Walz didn’t even win his home county, he may be easy for Duffy to replace in 2028.
Sean Duffy is extremely bright. He’ll serve President Trump very well. Every level of Transportation has suffered under that flake we have now.
Stupid, ignorant, flake!
That’s an insult to snow!
Where is that person anyway? Has he done a single press conference in 4 years other than after disasters?
He did one about the threatened port workers strike in Long Beack. And he did one to tell us there was an overpass in New Jersey that was built to keep Black people from taking busses to the beach. Being a person who prefers the beach to any other place, I can honestly say I have never noticed that even 1% of people who have vacationed on beaches where I was vacationing were Black. But for Buttigeg there could no explanation for an overpass that didn’t accommodate busses other than that a disproportionate number of Blacks rode the busses in New Jersey 50 years ago. That was pretty much his contribution to transportation. I don’t know if he even had that one overpass rebuilt.
Flake?…..Buttf*ck is more like a fake….fake man, fake father and fake human being.
I wish Duffy the best on his new endeavor and I hope he revives the railroads.
Despite everything the Damnocrats did to destroy our economy there has been a revival of
rail service in remote PA. We rode good ole 2102, a 4-6-4 steam engine , from Nesquehoning, PA up to
Piston, PA. in August. This was just a fun ride for folks that love steam engines and it drew thousands not
just from the event but from folks along the tracks. It gave us pride seeing all the people hanging out
waving and cheering. I told my friends that it felt like the American Spirit was revived during that ride.
Lord Behold, that feeling came to fruition when our (already was in 2020) President Trump was re-elected in
2024 both electorally and popularly.
Steam engines and trains are engrained in our history of making this country and diesel engines were the next generation.
I’m hoping I live long enough to see the next molten salt nuclear train engines. We can do it.
Saw the Bicentennial Train as a kid in ’76.
What might our MAGA Men come up with for the Quarter Millennial?!
SpaceX inaugural commercial flight
… circumnavigating the planet.
What a ride!!
If he ends up with Buttigieg’s old office. Check for soiled diapers.
Fumigating required…
Exorcism.
You tell ’em Melania’s coming, and Heaven’s coming with her!!
I’ve never seen her smile as much as she did at MAL when the election results were called for PDJT.😃She looked sooo 😊 happy..
Just read that she once again renegotiated her pre-nup before President Trump ran again; demanded a six figure payment before attending a Trump fundraiser; and will only be a part-time First Lady so she can hover around Barron in the Big Apple instead of being the ‘hostess with the mostest’ with its various responsibilities and glamorous junkets the White House occupancy brings with it.
Can anyone confirm?
Her book announcement so close to the election that she supports ‘anytime’ abortion can only have been calculated to harm President Trump—and to reap financial benefit.
I fully expect to learn she has registered demonkrap in New York and plans to run for Mayor of the City.
I am disappointed in her.
I’m not. So much was said about her the first time around that wasn’t true. And, they had lied about everything, just everything. And, they lied about what Trump said, that he never said. No. Don’t believe it.
You are the one spreading these rumors. YOU confirm. Do you have evidence to support all this?
I purchased and read her book and her position on abortion is not as you claim. She said NOTHING about “anytime abortion”.
Cite your sources.
Don’t repeat idle gossip.
Thank you!
I should have further down the thread!
Bless you 🙏
I discounted it as lies but this is on article on the subject. I’m sure it’s to divide the family.
https://nypost.com/2024/11/13/us-news/melania-trump-will-be-part-time-first-lady-during-second-term/
Sundance many moons ago noted that Melania was going to be more protective of their son and less visible in term two.
She is making wise calls for her progeny’s sake, denying the nation nothing in the process.
Haters gonna hate and twist this as bait.
Six figures, that is peanuts.Don’t you have anything substantial and factual to write ? Trump knew what was in the book before it was published.
Good grief. You should start your own tabloid.
I am concerned by your concern.
Been a few of them trolling around here this week.
These people stick out like a half hammered nail….
As if man…wth!..lol
Probably being smart in case he was sued into oblivion again. I am sure she has a life better than her wildest dreams. At least she is smart enough to appreciate it.
Just six figures out of a generous loving Billionaire husband of a divine supermodel while she’s still looking after his youngest?
Not a tabloid on the planet would run that clunker.
Melanie made money as a successful model and they have now been married over 20 years. I don’t think they have a business relationship, but a real marriage.
You forgot the sarcasm tag.
Source?
Have to say I just do not appreciate posts that start with “Just read….”
without a source, that would be a VALID source!
So no, not believing your post. Prove me wrong.
Carry on!
https://nypost.com/2024/11/13/us-news/melania-trump-will-be-part-time-first-lady-during-second-term/
Wrong answer, sorry.
We all knew she would be a part-time First Lady.
She was up front about that always when PDJT stated he was running again.
Also, the false claim that she supports, “anytime abortions”.
I was referring to her renegotiation of the pre-nup?
Also the snarky comment by Marnie about Melanie trying to undermine PDJT with her comments re: abortion anytime.
So Marnie has inside info on the Melania – Trump pre-nup?
All so exhausting is the nonsense.
carry on!
“Six figures”
You ARE joking, right?
Careful. Melania sues people who make up lies about her.
💥
Just a word of caution.
You are repeating a serious lie, obviously made up by the fake news.Melania is known to read here. Id shut my trap and stop with the fake news repetition, unless you are rich and have a good lawyer.
I call Bs on your BS….trolly trolly troll…
Huh, are you sure the “six figure payment” isn’t actually what the President is supposed to get paid, but he donated that the last time around? I recall he kept a buck out of the entire wad:)
MAL means evil in Spanish. ML or Mar-a-Lago is much better.
It’ll be jock straps not diapers
And I thought it would be Gutfeld. 😀
Nope. He’d be press secretary.
Gutfield makes too much money.
brilliant … I love Rachel as well. Had no idea who she was married to
God, family, country.
🙏🏻 🇺🇸 🙏🏻 🇺🇸 🙏🏻
Sean quit Congress after learning Baby 9 had a heart condition in utero. The baby (a daughter) was born with Downs Syndrome. All above per Wikipedia, so consider the source.
And they met on the reality show Road Rules. Such a great family.
Roll baby!
Maybe he can hire Pete at minimum wage to fill pot holes.
Maybe he can hire Pete at minimum wage to fill
potbutt holes.There, fixed it for you.
More trashy comments from enlightened Christians?
Whete would we be without Scott Pressler?
Gutter language alert.
Pete’s not qualified.
“Duffy has nine kids.”
And I’m willing neither he nor his wife needed a prosthetic ANYTHING for that to happen!
His daughter Evita is part of the Bongino crew.
…I am willing to bet neither…
Say it…I double dog 🐕 dare you..😂🤣😂🤣
You just want adrem to put me in the corner!!!!
NOBODY puts Baby CCV in the corner!
Whoops..link doesn’t work Ad rem
It’s a dancing banana it seems to be rocking pretty hard to me!
You been gone there and done now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ad rem put up a link to a dancing 🍌 banana. Link to dancing 🍌 banana didn’t work. Ad rem took link to dancing 🍌 banana down and put up a dancing 🍌 banana 🍌. . …
🤪
LOL!!
Evita is fantastic!! And lovely!
She sure is.
I hope the whole Duffy family comes to the confirmation hearing.
That’s one heck of an upgrade from Bootyjuice!
We don’t need these low-grade remarks.
You do you dude….
You need to understand, that we should troll these libtards into the corner at every opportunity.
They made a mockery of the country and its morals.
There is no more playing this ” taking the high moral ground anymore “.
You do not turn away from mocking Communists!
Man up! Why do you think PDJT won in a landslide and snuffed them at all 3 levels?
People have had enough, and mockery is a powerful tool. Enough with the moral preening!
Butt Plug
Troglodyte, party of one.
Go away asshole
BUTT PLUG BUTT PLUG BUTT PLUG BUTT PLUG
A good Irish lad……
Are we TIRED of winning YET……?
FO€K NO !!
Keep the hits comin’ Mr. President!
I don’t think the job pays enough to support 9 kids. Hope his wife is making big bucks.
She is making bank on FOX and FRIENDS WEEKEND.
I know people with large families and doubt their incomes are comparable to the Duffy’s but they manage to live good, God serving lives and are very happy.
No need to worry about the Duffy family income. Apparently they’re doing something right because they sure seem close and happy. I don’t think it’s because of money either.
They have both made money doing television gigs since before they were married.
An Irish family, with only 9 kids?
Must be a young family.
Rachael is 53. They are done. Not in the race for Irish Catholic Progeny Sweepstakes
Pity, A couple more and they could’ve of had two full lines and a goalie.
🤣 🤣
Ah, Sean Duffy and his wife Rachel Campos-Duffy, from 1997 MTV’s “The Real World”. Who would have thought back then we’d have Donald Trump as Republican President, RFK Jr as one of his appointees, Hulk Hogan as one of his speakers at a campaign event, Sly Stallone as a post-election speaker, and one of those Real World kids as a Congressman up for another of Trump’s nominations. Oh, and that Trump beat Hillary Clinton and Mayor Willie Brown’s side-piece for President.
This has got to be a simulation we are living in.
Reminds me of “Back to the Future,” when Marty tells 1955 Doc Brown that Ronald Reagan is president in 1985.
With Jack Benny as SecTreas…
Yes, Gen X remembers both Sean, and Rachel from their Real World days.
Or that YMCA would be a quasi national anthem of sorts w/a whole new dance.
Fun fact: Sean is a lumberjack.
His daughter Evita just tweeted this:
https://x.com/evitaduffy_1/status/1858652163620188458
Beautiful family.
-Goooood man !
You need to stop, Pete might get all worked up. His husband will not be happy. lol
Puke!!!
Humour interlude only. No reference to Sean Duffy intended.
Always MAGA 👊👊🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️
Buh bye Booty-Boy! So glad to see another disgusting stain on our history removed. What a bunch of freaks…..
I’m waiting for “Rachel” Levine’s replacement.
It will be “the first real” woman….
This Cabinet will be the most gorgeous Cabinet of all time. It matters LOL
Gorgeous is great. I would have settled for just normal.
Righteousness Reflects.
The Biden Circus is fading into oblivion. Trump’s cabinet represents America.
With nine kids he’s a master of mass transit! 🙂
We’re catholic with 8 kids so far. Looks like similar ages to the Duffy family. Our Ford Transit has a “Mass Transit” sticker.
Good puns.
God bless you!
Came from a Catholic family of 6 kids!
Grateful every single day for my siblings❤️
Our parents drilled into us, to love each other, have each others backs, pray and be there for each
other! Nothing is more important than family.
But they only echoed God’s words. No small thing. We thank them everyday for their teaching.
Family does matter.
We, the 6 of us, are all so very blest they taught us the truth.
He will probably deregulated cafe standards and allow Chrysler to go ahead with the maxivan.
One of my sons was accepted to Ntore Dame in 2015. We drove into South Bend, and our hearts sank. It was so depressing. We didn’t know that Buttigieg was the mayor. It just goes to show what a horrible job he did.
I love that Duffy has 9 kids and that Buttigieg is either a mommy or a daddy.
Notre Dame!
Sean Duffy, is going to be a real, Department of Transportation Secretary. Unlike the current confused one, who pretends to be, many things he’s not.
Duffy has nine kids.
Do not expect the DOT to be pushing small, econobox vehicles on the American people. Families need big station wagons or full size SUVs with V-8 engines.
Bring back the Dodge Polara wagon with a 440.
“Duffy has nine kids”
And grew up as the tenth of eleven kids. That Dodge Polara wagon would have to have been one in a parade of cars.
MBGA! Make Buses Great Again!
It seems like the Duffy family are a close knit family. The children appear to be smart and well disciplined. Valentina, the youngest child is handicapped and loved.
Rachael Campos Duffy has a new show in Spanish on Fox. Both parents are hard workers and seem to have a good life balance. I am happy President Trump nominated Sean to be Secy of Transportation. A good pick IMO.
Ford quit selling my “mass Transit” in the passenger van, now just have the utility vehicle Transit options(that was the best explanation I got from the dealer when I was looking to trade up for more seats).
I’m praying Ford brings back my Transit passenger van options before we outgrow the one we have .
Great!
Keep ‘em coming PDJT🇺🇸
I think President Trump just keeps nominating more and more MAGA people so that the Left doesn’t know where to direct their attacks! Maybe every one of the nominees won’t make it through confirmation (unless Thune actually grows a pair and allows the Senate to recess) but they all know that the President received a mandate from the American people and anyone who is up for re-election in 2026 is going to have to play ball and vote to confirm or they WILL get primaried, and they know it!
Cut off funding to UN, let it dry up and “wither on the vine” as Newt Gingrich once said.
Elon Musk has 12 children. But they were with three women.
Elon, God Bless him, gives his kids weird names. Not sure why that is.
It’s because his name is Elon.
Any hints on the new Secret Service Director? Hopefully, it will be another no-nonsense no DEI hire who will open up a FULL investigation into what happened on July 13th!
He won’t be Black.
Rumors have it that Dan Bongino is under consideration. After all, he has 12 years’ experience in the Secret Service (and I think some time as NYC cop, not sure on that), so he might just know a thing or two.
That’ s who I/ was thinking about.
I have heard that rumor – and he has been all over the J13th story – so I think he would get to the bottom of it. But, he also has a very successful show on Rumble so he might not want to take the pay cut. I have also heard that DJT is considering promoting the lead agent on his protection detail, who has been with him since 2016, I believe…again going with the loyalty pick!
I’ll go with VSGGEPDJT on his eventual pick, and Bongino might have some issues, but I am willing to bet he’d serve his President if asked.
Isn’t he fighting cancer?
No longer.
NOT A SINGLE AFRICAN AMERICAN APPOINTMENT SO FAR???
Musk is “African-American.”
Born in South Africa. Now a US citizen.
You know what I mean. GOP and MAGA are so short sighted.
Yes, I do. It’s just come to have such a narrow meaning that few look at what those words actually encompass.
MAGA is shortsighted?
And you’re using it as third person as if you’re not MAGA? 👀
Race baiting?
Don’t forget Musk.
Boo f-ing hoo. Ben Carson waits in the wings.
Surgeon General or head of the CDC.
We’ll see. Rumors here he has health issues.
We have yet to see Dr. Ben Carson appointed. I hope he is part of this administration that removes the neo-communist stain of Biden and his cronies.
Hopefully. He reportedly preferred a medical position to suit his skill set.
They are doing such a good job in the major cities we can’t spare them.
They helped get POTUS Trump elected, ingrate.
Surely you’re not suggesting Trump is an ingrate.
Of course he is.
His trolling is going nowhere.
Gotta up the ante.
Who’d ya have in mind for what?
That’s what I was wondering.
Complete opposite of Buttigieg, great pick. I’m really happy for the Duffy’s.
My 3-year old grandson would be better than Buttigieg, so I’m OK with Duffy.
However, I really expected Trump to select someone with a Air&Sea Transportation/Distribution, or maybe a road and ~~ WALL ~~ builder? I don’t see Duffy as the best person for the job, based upon his resume (nothing more or less). Hope it works out ok. The country spends more than any other in the world, yet has some of the dumpiest freeways and bridges of any 1st world country. We need a “Elon” level brain to downsize the Transportation Department, while building more roadway, and rebuilding all the nation’s bridges. We’ll see.
Another political choice. I agree with you. Get a kick-@ss transportation, or at least construction or management, professional.
Or pick your first African American Cabinet member.
What greater goal does this fulfill? Payback to the Catholics?
I doubt Trump, given his criticism of identity politics, and “diversity, equity & inclusive,” is taking skin color, genitalia, sexuality, religion or ethnic background into much consideration in his picks.
I can tell by the half-baked selection process.
Without the Black male vote (25%) and Scott Pressler, the race would have been much different.
I know a half dozen Black men sharper than Duffy, Hegseth and Rubio.
If your mindset is widespread, this is a 4-year run at best. The coalition isn’t big enough, no broad tent.
Maybe those black voters didn’t vote on the basis of identity politics. Perhaps they voted on a better economy, secure borders, school choice, freedom of speech, and a strong national defense, and chose the candidate who could deliver on promises.
Name them!
And what you’re suggesting, besides inflammatory race baiting, is DEI, which MAGA abhors.
By all means, please name your “half-dozen Black men sharper then Duffy, Hegseth, and Rubio”. Please do enlighten us.
Why, by the way, does the right person for the job need to be identified by color?
Sure seems like color is tantamount to you?
Merit is the determining factor, no?
That snarky comment toward Catholics was uncalled for.
Why don’t you go sit in the corner.
This pays better.
I’m Catholic.
Team Trump spent years courting the Black vote, and now is acting like it’s 1955.
And then they give fluff jobs to Duffy?
Trump courted the vote of anyone, regardless of race, ethnicity or religion, who addressed concerns that were not limited to any particular identity group: better economy, secure borders, school choice, freedom of speech, and a strong national defense. It’s called a big tent.
Thank you! I caught it too!
One redneck engineer (and his secretary) plus a small tribe of good ol’ boys can take care of The Wall…just fund it.
Send in the West Virginia Boys, who restored a road in NC in three days.
Come on down!
POTUS Trump had plans and funding for another 200 miles when Mumbles was inserted into the WH.
Part of press release statement by President elect Trump:
During his time in Congress, Sean was a respected voice and communicator in the Republican Conference, advocating for Fiscal Responsibility, Economic Growth, and Rural Development. Admired across the aisle, Sean worked with Democrats to clear extensive Legislative hurdles to build the largest road and bridge project in Minnesota History.
As a member of the House Financial Services Committee, Sean played a key role in shaping and strengthening Economic policies, and ensuring Transparency and Accountability in Government programs. Sean’s leadership extended to championing the needs of families, farmers, and small businesses, especially in rural communities.
He will prioritize Excellence, Competence, Competitiveness and Beauty when rebuilding America’s highways, tunnels, bridges and airports. He will ensure our ports and dams serve our Economy without compromising our National Security, and he will make our skies safe again by eliminating DEI for pilots and air traffic controllers.
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/11/18/trump-selects-sean-duffy-secretary-transportation/
Your grandson probably knows more about construction from playing with Legos that Buttigieg does now.
Buttigieg took a lot of time off during serious national emergencies, including a two-month parental leave even though his husband was there for the kiddos.
Great choice
Congrats to Mr. Duffy!
On a side note…ol’ Booty is a pretty sharp operator…very articulate, clean, handsome and a quick thinker…if he had chosen the ‘beard’ route as some bath house denizens have done we may have had another artificially elevated weener weener beefy deener to deal with….but given the leftist 4th Obama admin policies….NOT!….
How ’bout that legacy!?
No-he’s none of those things and is a national embarrassment as well as a failed mayor of a very small town. Good try, Kent.
Lol
EXCELLENT CHOICE !!
I suppose Hannity and Cavuto are wondering … “When will I get the call … ??? When ?? When ?? ” (HAHAHAHAHAHA !!)
Team Trump might even bag Jesse Watters from FOX before all is said and done — he could make coffee for the Oval Office ??? (smiles)
Or Johnny
Eagerly awaiting President Trump to announce SEC head.
Apparently Gensler announced he is leaving after Thanksgiving.
Off to a non-extradition country? Like Israel?
I have 2 kids, and we’re constantly on the road driving them places. I can’t imagine the amount of driving that 9 kids activities’ demand.
Sean has some serious hands on experience with Transportation here!
….something about minks?
What WAS that saying?
I’m getting old and forgetful….
Love it!! Sean Duffy is an awesome choice.
I may be old and stupid but what is a gender-binary surrogate?
I know what a surrogate is just not sure what a gender-binary one is.
Hmmmm. Whatever it is has to be gross!!💁🏻♀️
gender-binary surrogate
Biologically female surrogate mother.
Anybody else noticing how young the new Trump team is? Almost like he is setting MAGA up with decades worth of future GOP leaders.
Crazy like a lion!
I am sure he won’t be chest feeding.
I would love if they could get cycles off the road and onto designated bike paths. Yes, money would have to be put towards those but it’s safer for everyone at the end of the day. I always fear hitting cyclists, especially in the cramped city.
It is a little funny….as I break into the Monty Python Lumberjack song.
Is it just me, or does anyone else think President Trump is leaving the future FBI Director (we all know Wray quits or gets fired) and the Treasury Secretary nominations out there, just dangling, dangling, dangling, night after night, just to torment the DS players and make them sweat?
Wray has a few more years on his term. Unless he quits, or Trump fires him, he’ll stay. Trump may have a replacement in mind, but is waiting for an actual vacancy.
I’d like to know who the next surgeon general is, as well as the head of the CDC.
I can’t imagine why Trump would fire him.
I’m sure Wray is entirely comfortable serving his time and perhaps seeking more.
🤪
Maybe we’ll get I-69 done.
Spokane’s North-South freeway connector is another multi-generation project that needs a kick in the backside!
Lol…which part?…my end of it…literally The End is a mess….but about 50 of 100 miles north of here are a mess too…C’est la vie….
High speed rail across country would be nice.
…lol…it’s just a fantasy…it’s not the real thing
President Trump could try to hire Harris Faulkner as part of his Comms Team.
She works at Fox, and is very attractive, so she fits two of his criteria.
just recently he was on fox making some curiously sympathetic remarks regarding some of these cuck senators who are opposing trump
s other appointments....im not nearly as happy about this one as most…i hope he stops culling fox news personalities…..i don
t trust most of them.....i wouldnt be disappointed if this one fails..
Really significant, and he won’t be on a 6 month maternity leave to chest feed.
I have more experience in transportation than he has.
It’s great that President Trump gets qualified people for trade, business, and the FCC.
Why can’t he hire a kick butt construction professional for transportation?
There have to be victories out there, easy wins, ways to speed construction and lower costs, that Duffy has never even thought of. And bigger projects that would be a force multiplier.
Oh well. His wife is on Fox News.
You are trying way too hard.
Pro tip: it isn’t working. 😂
Ah did Mr Duffy turn you down son???
Maybe pick another restroom
Sarah Palin left out again I give up
Concern noted.
Again
