Watchdog Group Asks Transportation IG to Probe Duffy's 'Road Trip' with Family
- On Friday, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced he spent seven months filming 'The Great American Road Trip,' a reality series celebrating America's 250th anniversary with his family and nine children.
- Chasten Buttigieg criticized the production on Monday as 'out of touch,' contrasting Duffy's seven-month absence with the scrutiny former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg faced for taking parental leave.
- Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy defended the project, stating it was filmed during 'weekends and the kids' spring break,' though corporate sponsors including Boeing and Shell—companies Duffy regulates—funded production.
- Ethics experts raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, while critics described the show as 'tone-deaf' as fuel prices climbed to more than $4.50 per gallon since the Iran War began.
- White House Communications Director Steven Cheung stated, 'The President loves Stephen,' defending Duffy as the administration faces criticism over blending public service with private entertainment during an economic crisis.
