Pete Buttigieg is lashing out at his critics who said he should have visited the East Palestine, Ohio, wreck site earlier and questioned his footwear.
Buttigieg, who made a trip to East Palestine 20 days after the train crash which caused toxic chemicals to be released into the air, said on Monday that it was "maddening" that so much attention was drawn to the shoes he wore. Brianna Herlihy is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
The former South Bend, Indiana, mayor was called out by several Republican lawmakers for wearing what appeared to be leather dress shoes while surveying the damage, instead of a more heavy-duty work boot.
