Joe Biden’s European trip has been nothing short of a comedy of errors. The President, who seems to struggle with basic name recognition and coherent statements, has been embarrassingly reliant on the other foreign leaders to shepherd him around. It’s almost like they’re playing a game of “move the Biden” and seeing how far they can lead him astray.
Biden Busted With More Climate Hypocrisy, as John Kerry Makes Unbelievable Statement About Private Plane https://t.co/24AxaEPb3k

But amidst all the nonsense, Biden managed to squeeze in some time to talk about his favorite topic: climate change. He passionately declared it to be the “single greatest threat to humanity,” urging everyone to summon the common will to address this so-called existential crisis. Well, if it’s such a dire emergency, why was Biden cruising around Helsinki in a 39-car motorcade? Talk about hypocrisy.

Biden (who arrived on a 747 jet) is whisked away from the Helsinki airport in a motorcade spanning nearly two dozen vehicles (which were flown in on gigantic cargo planes).

CLIMATE CZAR JOHN KERRY: “I've personally never owned a private jet!" pic.twitter.com/lajk1aQyYz

It’s fascinating how quickly Biden conveniently forgets about other pressing issues like white supremacy and nuclear threats whenever he needs to pander to a particular audience. It’s almost as if he pulls these cards out of his deck whenever it suits his narrative. But hey, who needs consistency when you’re the President, right?
This isn’t the first time Biden has displayed his “rules for thee, not for me” mindset. Remember when he had his motorcade in Lithuania? It was yet another example of his elitist attitude, expecting everyone else to comply with his climate rhetoric while he travels in gas-guzzling SUVs and requires multiple planes to transport them. Perhaps Biden doesn’t really believe the end is near after all.
Now let’s talk about his climate czar, John Kerry. During a Congressional hearing, Kerry boldly claimed he never “personally” owned a private jet. Well, that may be true, but his family sure does. In fact, Kerry’s family jet has emitted over 300 metric tons of carbon dioxide since the Biden administration began. But don’t worry, Kerry offsets his carbon emissions, so it’s all good, right? It’s almost as if he believes he’s exempt from practicing what he preaches.
The icing on the cake is when Kerry, the champion of climate change, used the same private jet to travel to an award ceremony celebrating his own “leadership” in environmental activism. An Icelandic reporter had the audacity to confront Kerry about his environmentally unfriendly mode of transportation, to which Kerry smugly responded that it was the only option for someone like him. Well, excuse us, Mr. Kerry, for not realizing that fighting climate change requires jet-setting around the world in private planes.
The blatant hypocrisy of Biden and Kerry is not only infuriating but also deeply concerning. If they truly believed that climate change is an imminent threat to humanity, shouldn’t they lead by example? Instead, they expect the average American to shoulder the burden while they continue their lavish and carbon-intensive lifestyles. It’s a classic case of “do as I say, not as I do.”
It’s time to hold these self-proclaimed climate warriors accountable for their actions. The American people deserve leaders who practice what they preach, not hypocrites who exploit the issue for political gain. Climate change is a serious matter, but it shouldn’t be used as a prop to advance an agenda or maintain a false sense of moral superiority. As conservatives, we should demand transparency and integrity from our elected officials, especially when it comes to environmental policies that impact everyday Americans. Let’s not be fooled by empty rhetoric and grandstanding.
