This 26 December 2019 video from the USA says about itself:

Pete Buttigieg Has Blown Off Families of Black Murder Victims

Status Coup’s Jordan Chariton spoke with Vernado Malone, an activist with Justice for South Bend, on a series of questionable murders in South Bend Indiana–and Mayor Pete Buttigieg‘s lack of action.

WHY BUTTIGIEG’S DEFENSE OF DONORS IS SO FUZZY Pete Buttigieg, like most of his fellow Democratic presidential contenders, has signed a voluntary campaign finance pledge that he will not take money from fossil fuel executives. But this apparently didn’t count when it came to Craig Hall, the owner of the now-infamous “wine cave” in California’s Napa Valley that hosted a swanky fundraiser for Buttigieg. [HuffPost]

BUTTIGIEG’S CAMPAIGN RAISES NEARLY $25 MILLION IN 4TH QUARTER Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg’s latest fundraising figure of $24.7 million, just short of his campaign’s second-quarter haul of $24.9 million, comes amid criticism from his Democratic rivals, particularly Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), around his high-dollar fundraising events. [HuffPost]

BUTTIGIEG REJECTS IDEA THAT BLACK VOTERS AREN’T INTO HIM “The Black voters who know me best are supporting me,” Pete Buttigieg said at Tuesday’s debate, when asked whether it’s possible Black voters don’t like what he has to say. Black Lives Matter activists assert that Buttigieg has been inactive on homelessness, police reform and has targeted Black and Latino neighborhoods for development projects. [HuffPost]

BUTTIGIEG’S MAYORAL STAFF WAS DISPROPORTIONATELY WHITE At an NAACP forum last year, Pete Buttigieg told the audience that as mayor of South Bend, Indiana, he strived to appoint aides who reflected the city’s diversity, and as president, he would do the same. But a new analysis by HuffPost of the executive staff Buttigieg surrounded himself with as mayor found that two-thirds were white, in a city that is roughly half nonwhite. [HuffPost]
