Absolutely horrified at what happened to @PeteButtigieg and his family. I am so sick of dirty, cruel politics and am truly deeply upset by the involvement of his children. It is wildly fucked up.
This world has to do better.
What kind of sick, toxic family must you be from where it upsets you to see a beautiful family minding their business & being happy, so you make a fake call to CPS to cause the kids to be interrogated & separated from their parents. I hope the caller is found & prosecuted.
Okay. I have heard enough. Pete Buttigieg is the classiest, smartest motherfucker America has to offer. He is an American hero and a leader of those who are decent.

Who is with me? ✋
I think Pete Buttigieg has what it takes to lead this country out of darkness. If given the opportunity, I genuinely believe he would be one of America's greatest presidents.
Pete is my political hero. Following his work for seven years, all I've seen him do is try to help people and spread goodness in this world. And he does it with kindness, humility, and joy.
Someone has to be really broken inside to try to hurt him and his family.
As a dad of little kids in the public eye, this hits close to home. Swatting children through Child Protective Services is abusive — and an affront to the kids who need help, and to the people who help them. This criminal must be caught & severely punished.
Tremendous respect for how Pete is handling this, but the anger & sadness he describes should resonate with us all. If this is the price of politics, then nobody with a family is going to pay it.
The United States of America's Government's official opening remarks for the 250th birthday of America included the word "libtard," and people are surprised that we haven't come together in unity to celebrate
This is just horrible. I couldn't imagine the pain of being separated from my two boys because of an attack like this. Pete is a great father who loves his children more than anything. Wishing him and Chasten strength and support as they navigate this awful situation.
It is truly sickening that @PeteButtigieg & his four-year-old children were dragged into this vile smear.
Pete is the most loving and devoted father I know, & his children are SO lucky to have him.
No matter your politics, this should horrify you.
My heart goes out to Pete and Chasten and it enrages me that this happened to them. Of course it could happen to anyone who uses their voice about anything today. We must all denounce this and stand with this family. This anonymous caller should be arrested. @PeteButtigieg
Pete and Chasten love their kids more than anything, and it's obvious to anyone who has spent even a couple minutes w/ the four of them together.
This is ugly - no one, including public figures and their FOUR year old children, should ever have to deal with something like this.
This is reprehensible, hateful, and, simply, unacceptable. Our world is lucky to have Pete and Chasten, their family, and their collective love for one another in it.
