At the World Economic Forum meeting in January (the one all the climate change alarmists did not travel to via bicycles or horse & buggy), Biden “climate czar” John Kerry told the truth for a change when he said what all this global warming freakout is really about: Money money moooney… MONEYYYY:

Climate change alarmists such as John Kerry are very transparent when they say how much money taxpayers (and future generations) will have to be on the hook for, but when it comes to their own budgets it seems that’s “need to know” information only, and you and I don’t need to know:
.@StateDept refuses to disclose info re @johnkerry's climate jet-setting, including:
"lists of people he is meeting with… who is advising him… [and] requests for budget and staffing info from legislators and government watchdog groups."https://t.co/7kPNlQDWOL

The “climate change” scam runs so deep that you probably couldn’t get down that far to see it even by borrowing a deep-sea submersible from the Navy. And that of course is by design.
Most transparent administration ever!

The hypocrisy of John Ketchup Kerry knows no limits. Nor does the state department coverup of same.

Kerry’s his name, and eco-hypocrisy is his game!
The best part of this is that requests for a spending breakdown will take at least two more years to fulfill:
While Kerry trumpets his meetings and appearances around the world, the State Department wraps the rest of his efforts in a cloak of secrecy usually reserved for CIA black box operations. It has refused to specify lists of people he is meeting with and who is advising him as he circles the globe. His office has stonewalled requests for budget and staffing information from legislators and government watchdog groups. In response to a Freedom of Information Act request filed last year by RealClearInvestigations for a breakdown on how the climate envoy’s roughly $16.5 million 2022 budget was spent, the State Department said it could not comply with the request until April 2025, months after both the 2024 election and the expiration of President Biden’s current term.
Read it all at Real Clear Investigations.
Also maddening are Kerry’s excuses for his (and other rich eco-alarmists’) enormous hypocrisy:

But, for the rest of us, our air conditioners, lawnmowers and gas stoves are BIG problems for the environment.
