Biden’s elitist climate czar John Kerry declares ‘we absolutely don’t’ need to drill more or ‘go back to coal’

Attending one of those interminable climate change-related conferences, Democrat John Kerry has dismissed the need for more fossil fuel production as a false narrative even as America is still suffering through an energy crisis.

The ex-U.S. Senator from Massachusetts and subsequently Secretary of State under President Obama is getting metaphorically roasted or “cooked” on Twitter for these typically out-of-touch comments.

Reportedly with an estimated net worth of $250 million, the self-important Kerry is President Joe Biden’s special presidential envoy for the climate.

“Energy security worry is driving a lot of the thoughts now that ‘oh, we need more drilling…we need more drilling with this, we need to go back to coal.’ No we don’t. We absolutely don’t. And we have to prevent a false narrative from entering into this or, again, pun intended, we are cooked,” Kerry claimed in comments at the USC Center for Public Diplomacy last week.

The arrogance and elitism of this,” Jason Howerton told his 73,000 Twitter followers in response to the Kerry soundbite, adding that, as a practical matter, “society needs oil and gas to function today.”

Kerry’s claim may also be yet another example of liberal projection, i.e., where someone who is actually pushing a false narrative, or misinformation/disinformation, accuses ideological opponents of doing that very same thing.

As of Wednesday, the national average gas price per gallon at the pump is $5, with no end in sight, as inflation continues to soar.

In a report published last summer, the New York Post noted that “The gas-guzzling private jet owned by climate czar John Kerry’s family has already taken 16 flights this year alone.” The State Department claimed at the time that Kerry only flies commercial or on a military plane as part of his official role in trying to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

“Kerry has faced intense scrutiny in the past for defending his use of a private jet while preaching to the nation and the world about reducing emissions. After he was criticized for taking the jet to receive a climate award in Iceland in 2019, Kerry said: ‘If you offset your carbon, it’s the only choice for somebody like me who is traveling the world to win this battle,'” the Post added, quoting the Democrat who lost to G.W. Bush in the 2004 presidential election.

In the meantime, Biden has taken a timeout from blaming the so-called Putin price hike for soaring gas prices to demand that oil companies increase their output amid “historically high refinery profit margins.”

Upon taking office, Biden reversed America’s energy independence that was in effect under his predecessor Donald Trump.

According to Fox Business, the incumbent POTUS sent a letter to seven oil companies threatening to use emergency powers if they don’t comply with his request to take immediate action. “Biden’s letter does not offer a timeline for when his administration would resort to emergency powers, threatening only to do so in the ‘near term.,” Fox Business added.

Parenthetically, it’s all well and good for the Biden/Harris administration, for example, to promote electric cars for those who can afford one. Most of the electricity to power those vehicles is currently generated, however, by fossil fuels rather than renewables.

Kerry, 78, stands accused of holding secret talks with the Iranians while the Trump administration was seeking to either renegotiate or exit the flawed nuclear deal.

History has also proven Kerry wrong when he insisted that peace between Israel and its neighbors would be impossible without the resolution of the Palestinian issue.

Especially perhaps given his sketchy track record in real-world diplomacy, other social media users are weighing in on Kerry’s latest pronouncement.

  1. Billions of our taxed dollars go to this absurdity , for over 50 years hundreds of billions of dollars have gone to people just like John kerry without one single evidence of any movement of anything getting better . How are they helping ? Stopping oil drilling operations , I don’t think so . It’s a con game , just like a court case, a specialist testifying about climate change is real and another specialist says its a faults claim. If there confused about how to help try investing in bettering the automobile. In the 70s there as a carburetor that got a whopping 250 miles per gallon. Time to reinvent a great gas milage plan .

  2. Kerry, Born with a silver spoon in his mouth and a silver shovel up his ass. The biggest fraud on earth!

  3. I didn’t know his private jets, yachts, etc. were electric vehicles. 🙄

  4. John Kerry needs to shut the —– up and go back to making ketchup and quit —-ing the country up.

  5. And then he walked out and boarded his solar powered plane that was propelled by wind mills. What a FRIGGEN clown.

  6. Well John old boy, not all of us married into the millionaire, private jet life style you did. In addition the more you spout your BS the more you are turning off the people who will keep your boss in power. Soon you will be called before congress to explain every cent to bilked from the taxpayers while you flit around the planet as if you were important. Your day of reckoning is coming.

    Let’s go Brandon and take John and his private jet with you!

  7. Should Have fallen off his Vietnam River Boat, floated out to sea 4ft beneath the surface and saved the world a ton of grief. What a power hungry knucklehead.

    1. I can’t wait to see the results of the wind and solar power> Like when we start having rolling blackouts. Especially in cities when the lights go out and the criminals reign, food gone from stores and the people going bat shit crazy. They will have to Call Kerry and have him save them. Just wait. It’s coming to cities where you live!!

  8. I think John Kerry thinks his shit don’t stink and his private jet runs on batteries.

  9. Kerry remains true to his “Skull and Bones” roots, as, he pushes an atrocious agenda that`s designed to destroy America, while having him and his colleagues ending up owning everything, while having complete control of us.

  10. just buy an all electric car. plug it in and the electricity fairy will magically produce the needed juice.

  11. I don’t see any private jets powered by electric. Maybe this moron should start walking to his climate change meetings. Another out of touch elitist.

  12. “The arrogance and elitism of this” (copied from the article). I would say the ignorance and stupidity of this. It will take 20 to 30 years to build the infrastructure to support the dreams of the democraps. Not to mention the toxic materials in solar panels and the old style (fossil fuels) construction of wind mills. I guess Kerry skipped science classes.

  13. I would just like to take this opportunity to thank the Demokkkrats for doing such a fantastic job finally exposing themselves for the hideous monsters that they truly are. I have always believed it had to happen sooner or later. My only regret is that it took longer than I had anticipated. But a majority of the American people are finally waking up to the fact and by the time the mid-term election rolls around, we should all be able to take a front-row seat to the inevitable slaughter of the “D” party. No matter how much they cheat, it won’t be enough.

  14. Hey John F’ing Kerry, why don’t you LEAD BY EXAMPLE!

    Stop flying around in private jets!

  15. John “John-boy” Kerry is not the Vietnam War hero he claims to be. He has a Bronze Star Medal with a Combat “V”, for which he put himself in, his commanding officer never saw the citation application as Kerry “bypassed” his CO. His CO said he would NEVER have approved that citation for the fact that Kerry didn’t merit a Bronze Star, and getting it cheapened the medal for everyone who received it. He has two Purple Heart Medals, “awarded” for shrapnel wounds received when Kerry was throwing hand grenades at a Viet Cong arms cache, and the resulting explosion caused the shrapnel wound BECAUSE KERRY WAS STANDING TOO CLOSE WHEN HE THREW THE GRENADES. His second Purple Heart came when he launched grenades at a rice cache, and again, our “hero” was standing too close and got a scratch. When a group of 4 boats were patrolling for Viet Cong activity, they surprised a group of VC, who opened fire on them, and Kerry accelerated his boat away, abandoning the other three boats temporarily. Kerry’s tour was supposed to be a full year, but because he “received” two Purple Heart Medals, he complained that he was now eligible for immediate rotation back home. I guess he had the connections, like Ted Kennedy, to force the issue, because he got his orders home. Among all the other crap he’s done described in other responses and the tweets in the article, I’m damned glad that Kerry lost the 2004 election, he would have been a terrible President, just like the moron we have now. He’s a liar, a cheat, and an egotistical jackass. I think it’s appropriate that he’s a Democrat, the jackass party.

    1. Just like the moron to whom he lost in 2004, the moron from 2008 to 2016, and of course the very definition of moronic – our current “president” (or whatever he is).

  16. I hope Kerry drowns in a vat of Heinz ketchup. He’s a worthless piece of excrement, and should have been jailed for being an illegal agent of the Iranians.

  17. This arrogant condescending douche bag views himself as the second coming. He feels using his private jet to attend conferences, is his gift to mankind, so that others can hear and share in his brilliance. To a man, his Swift Boater buddies hated him, because they knew he was a coward and started pulling strings within weeks, to get his boney ass home and out of danger. He married Ms Tomato Queen so he could avoid having to work, to put food on the table. When he speaks, he exudes superiority and views us as peasants that need his care. What a piece of sshit he is.

  18. Kerry proves the old adage of ‘you can make more money spending 5 minutes at the altar marrying the right woman than in a life time of working’. ‘Lurch’ verifies that one. The Ketchup King isn’t worried of $5 + gas or $20 steak It’s crushing the little people, he doesn’t care, till the reality of the mid terms hits him in his sitting down spot.

  19. Why does everyone keep saying these pieces of sh!t are out of touch. Not out of touch they don’t give a ratsass about our America or her Americans. The HORSEFACE kerry should be sent to the glue factory!!!

  20. I would be curious what this mental midget Kerry would replace fossil generated energy with. Wind and Solar account for around 5% of the total requirement and are extremely unreliable, harmful to the environment and expensive. I also wonder how much of his worth is actually his wife. I suspect most of it is. The only thing Kerry needs is a red nose to make him a full fledged clown!!

  21. Kerry’s comments make it clear that this administration along with help from the RINO are purposely and systematically punishing the American people. They are trying to force something that should come at it’s own pace. And are doing it for money, influence and power in America and internationally.

  22. Immediately, cut all gas and oil products to John Kerry. No more electricity that is generated by coal and/or gas to his home or work. No more vehicles to travel in that use gas or a carbon fuel. Put this restriction on him immediately, and I would say give him a week, and he’ll beg to have his power. This would also include not just his personal vehicles, but any vehicle that uses coal. Let him experience what it would be like without.

  23. This guy has no clue how energy is even produced. Hey John, do you even have any idea what coal is used for? You had better keep quiet, or we are all going to be asking where you got all your millions.
