So, is it real now, guys? The Left has regarded the baby formula shortage crisis as a Fox News invention. It’s not a real problem in the minds of liberal America who are nestled in their coastal and urban strongholds. That’s not shocking coming from the camp that despises motherhood and raising families. For one Biden cabinet secretary, the crisis has hit close to home. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg admitted he can’t find baby formula for his twin kids.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has admitted having to take desperate steps to find baby formula for his own baby twins because of the supply crisis that is being blamed on his own administration.

“This is very personal for us,” the 40-year-old senior government official told CBS News’ “Face The Nation” Sunday, referring to how the formula shortage was a struggle for him and his husband, Chasten Buttigieg.

“We’ve got two 9-month-old children,” he said of twins Penelope Rose and Joseph August, whose birth created a political firestorm when he took extended paternity leave despite the crippling supply-chain crisis.

“Baby formula is a very big part of our lives. And like millions of Americans, we’ve been rooting around stores, checking online, getting in touch with relatives in other places where they don’t have the same shortages to see what they can send over,” he said.
