The President of the United States of America, Joe Biden has become the first US President to appoint an openly gay person into his cabinet.

Mr Biden has appointed Pete Buttigieg as Secretary of the Department of Transportation pending confirmation by the US Senate.

If confirmed, Buttigieg will become the first openly LGBTQ, Senate-confirmed person to lead a department and hold a Cabinet-level position.

President Biden is not new to making pioneer appointments, having been the first to present a female vice president in America’s history.

In early 2019, Pete Buttigieg was the first openly gay candidate to run for a Democratic presidential nomination, where he became the first openly LGBTQ person of any party to earn a delegate and win a state caucus or primary.

This is what Americans voted for. ??
They are gradually drifting away from the foundation layed by their fathers. They will soon know shame.

USA is a country where they recognized someone's ability than a lifestyle. What do we gain from a person or persons with an ideal lifestyle but has no ability to perform an assigned job? This is what make American more stronger than others.

When you help your Mr FLESH to send your God given grace away from your life, you bear the consequences  how long will human learn even from the same mistake of others?  I pray Americans don't regret just as Nigerian are regretting supporting Buhari now...
