I see former Secretary of Transportation #ElaineChao is back in the news given the #FAA troubles this morning.

Let me say this much... I do not think that Secretary #Buttigeig has done wonders for FAA reform and the #NHTSA (for automotive safety) is as ineffective as ever.

(And there is a hostile Congress to consider also.)

But, Secretary #Chao was *by far* the worst Secretary of Transportation in recent memory.

Secretary Chao set the #USDOT back years... maybe even a decade.

Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao told investigators she announced her resignation the day after the Jan. 6, 2021, riot because the events that day were so shocking that “it was impossible for me to continue.”

“I believe in this country. I believe in the peaceful transfer of power. I believe in democracy,” she said, according to a transcript.
