Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg faced down a Fox News host who complained about peaceful protests against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh over abortion rights.
During an interview on Fox News, host Mike Emmanuel asked Buttigieg if it was "appropriate" for demonstrators to protest outside a restaurant where Kavanaugh was dining.
Buttigieg acknowledged that public officials "should always be free from violence."
"You're never going to be free from criticism or peaceful protests, people exercising their First Amendment rights," the Transporation secretary pointed out.
Pete Buttigieg is smart and articulate and wins arguments. Many on the Right loathe how he embodies almost everything they hold dear, but Pete does so as a Democrat: a decorated veteran, young white man, loving spouse with two young children.
NOTE TO SCOTUS JUDGES: If you say that a right to privacy is not in the Constitution, don't YOU expect to have privacy yourselves.
