WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden has confidence in Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who has had to deal with the fallout of recent travel disruptions, including a nationwide ground stop and a 90-minute halt to all U.S. departing flights imposed early Wednesday, the White House said.
