Last April, Biden’s Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg attended the Invictus Games in the Netherlands, a high-profile international sporting event for wounded veterans. As is customary for presidents and cabinet members attending the competition, Buttigieg brought his husband Chasten along for the trip.
But after Fox News recently caught wind of the trip — with apparently nothing more important happening in Washington this week — the cable news network attempted to turn it into a scandal. However, it backfired when the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana went toe to toe with host Fox News Bret Baier on Thursday night and made deft work of the controversy.
