(Daily Caller) Chasten Buttigieg told “The View” on Thursday that it is “a dangerous time” as Republican governors ban pornographic books from school libraries and transgender procedures for minors.
Buttigieg, the husband of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, was referring to the bans on drag shows, pornographic books from school libraries and Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill that prohibits classroom discussion about sexuality and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade classrooms

“I think it’s an extremely dangerous time and it’s a really upsetting time because nothing could be more important than showing up and protecting our families, but the way in which they say they’re showing up for our families, this conversation about giving parents more choice, protecting children, what they’ve really done, and they’ve done a good job, it’s been a very well-coordinated, well-funded effort to attack the LGBGTQ community,” he said. “Specifically with the book bans, when you look at what many of these have in common, they’re extremely vulnerable children and so you have groups of politicians who are making calculated choices.”
