Ah, how can we forget the “Climate Czar” that flies around the world yet preaches about fossil fuels. But at least he doesn’t own his own jet…it was his wife’s.

Kerry raised it himself, dismissing the idea that he flies around the world on a private jet as a “persistent lie.”
Republican senators on Thursday introduced a bill to track greenhouse gas emissions by Biden administration officials.
GOP bill would track Biden admin’s greenhouse gas emissions, including jet trips
Strong. Convincing even. Were it not for the facts.
“I don’t own a private jet,” insisted Kerry. “I’ve personally never owned a private jet.”
But there was one teensy little missing detail there that was promptly provided by Rep. Mike Waltz (R-Fla.).
In February this year, he noted, it was reported that the Kerry family recently sold their private jet after accusations of climate hypocrisy.
Given that fact, did John Kerry stand by his previous statement — made under oath?
Oh, it suddenly all came flooding back to the former senator.
“My wife owned a plane,” he said, as though plucking the memory from the distant past.
And how we all must surely sympathize with him. It could have happened to anyone.
It is easy to forget what you own when you’re married to a Heinz.
