What’s Happening:
For some reason, Joe Biden picked failed presidential candidate John Kerry to be his “climate czar.” Obama’s former secretary of state–who violated the law when he secretly met with Iranian officials–has been traveling the world recently to “promote” Biden’s socialist climate agenda.
But Kerry was nailed when we repeatedly reported that he has been flying across the world in a private jet. Like many celebrities who push climate alarmism, Kerry appears to be doing far more damage than any ordinary person. Yet Kerry does seem to care that his private jet is dumping tons of pollution into the atmosphere. Republicans hammered the hypocrite over his jet and this is what he dared to claim.
From Fox News:
Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry lashed out at House lawmakers during a committee hearing on Thursday over the criticisms of his use of a private jet that has emitted hundreds of metric tons of carbon…
“We don’t own a private jet. I don’t own a private jet. I personally have never owned a private jet…”
Kerry has been widely criticized for advocating for drastic climate change rules while also traveling to events on a private jet that was owned by Flying Squirrel LLC, a charter company owned by Kerry’s wife, Teresa Heinz-Kerry, and in which Kerry reported owning a more than $1 million stake on a financial disclosure.
Wow. So not only is John Kerry a hypocrite, but he’s also a liar. It has been well-documented that Kerry has spent the last few years dumping pollution into the air as he’s traveled on a private jet. Yet while speaking before Congress, he repeatedly claimed that he does not own a private jet.
Mind you, he never denied flying on a private jet. But even his claim is false. He has flown on a private jet owned by Flying Squirrel LLC, a company owned by his wife Teresa Heinz-Kerry. John Kerry himself owns a $1 million stake in the company.
Which means, he owns a private jet. In fact, he owns multiple jets, if the company owns more than one.
Kerry thought he could get away with lying to Congress over a technicality. But it doesn’t change the fact that he has been dumping pollution into the air while preaching to us about “climate change.”
If he really fears climate change, why doesn’t he mind polluting the air? And why does he get to enjoy luxuries like private jets, when the rest of us can’t even use plastic straws?
Key Takeaways:
- John Kerry denied before Congress that he owns a private jet, despite evidence of his extensive use of one.
- Kerry has been blasted for dumping tons of pollution into the air while serving as Biden’s “climate czar.”
- Despite his claims, Kerry has used a private jet owned by his wife’s company, in which he owns a stake.
