Our daily catch-all post of Pete Buttigieg content and media.

TODAY IN PETELANDIA:

Pete spoke at the US Conference of Mayors. It’s a FANTASTIC speech. Must watch! We have it here.

One year ago today… Pete launched his exploratory committee

One year later, same question: Are you ready to walk away from the politics of the past? https://t.co/7sbv6CevxM https://t.co/ruXcZ8XwN9

PETE AND CHASTEN TWEETS

I came out when I was 17. Terrified, I ran away from home, crashed on friends’ couches and occasionally slept in my car to stay out of the way.

Today I’m traveling the country on behalf my husband, just two weeks shy of the Iowa Caucuses as he seeks the American presidency.

Donald Trump faked a medical condition to avoid serving. He’s never had to sacrifice a day in his life.

He will never understand the sacrifices our service members and their families make. We deserve a better Commander-in-Chief. https://t.co/rGy9YdzFwj

MEDIUM.COM - The power of Therapy, Medication, and Pete Buttigieg

I educated myself on all things Pete. I found joy, and not fear, in paying attention to politics for the first time in a long time. I also realized politics was my calling. In June, I switched my major to Political Science (after a lot of prior changes) and threw myself into it. When watching Pete’s speech on Health and Belonging in America, he mentioned Bipolar Disorder by name, stating how it shouldn’t be stigmatized or treated any differently than a physical ailment. While seemingly simple, hearing a presidential candidate not just acknowledge, but advocate for people like myself was nothing I had ever heard before. Emotional and inspired, I began volunteering in my area for Pete.

NEIGHBOR (walking her dog as I put my Pete lawn sign on my “lawn”):
“Yes, it’s time.”

ME: “Are you for @PeteForAmerica too?”

Buttigieg on Jan 23, 2019, announcing his presidential campaign to a handful of skeptical reporters at a hotel in DC — and on Jan 23, 2020, back in DC a few blocks away at the Conference of Mayors, predicting victory in the Iowa caucuses pic.twitter.com/oCfj9XVm7p

One year ago today, I yelled “holy sh*t, Pete Buttigieg is running for president!” and my husband said, “who??”

Bet he knows now. 😁 https://t.co/o1N4EwhlSo

As a conservative, I didn't know if I'd be heard or welcome when I started campaigning for @PeteButtigieg.@PeteForAmerica has proved me wrong by showing me the rules of the road; they told me I belong despite party lines.

We are making America UNITED again.#WinTheEra

A year ago today, I saw the New York Times article announcing Pete’s presidential exploratory committee. I was one of the few (outside of South Bend) who knew his name. You see, he had captured my attention a year earlier. https://t.co/Ah1tkObywZ
