While campaigning in New Hampshire today, Joe Biden told voters “we should put [fossil fuel executives] in jail” for, well, he’s not entirely clear. Something about their actions in “underserved neighborhoods”:

You mean like Hunter Biden? Put Hunter Biden in jail?
Don't forget: Hunter Biden was a fossil fuel Exec. https://t.co/EJOTq9SuPY

Of course Biden is a giant hypocrite over this as his private plane use certainly qualifies for an environmental crime if he’s ready to prosecute executives at fossil fuel companies. Lock him up, too?

Lead by example, Joe, and ditch the jet!
"We're not the leader of the free world — we're the leader of the WORLD on this," Biden says in response to a Q on climate change in Peterborough.
A campaign aide said this should be the last Q, but Biden asked for more. #FITN

Biden went on to suggest “we’re all dead” if we don’t stop using fossil fuels (except for him and his private jet travel, of course):
“If we don’t stop using fossil fuels,” a questioner begins …
“We’re all dead,” @JoeBiden finishes.
