Warm-mongers Biden, Buttigieg, and Kerry are all questioned about why they are allowed to keep using private jets to whisk them across the world at a whim. Including to attend conferences whose primary concerns are banning jet travel for ordinary Americans, and supplying underaged prostitutes to our repulsive transnational Regime class.

President Biden and his top officials are increasingly coming under fire for their private plane use, even as the administration is determined to limit greenhouse emissions of the kind those jets produce in abundance.

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry and even Biden himself have all faced scrutiny for use of private jets fueled by carbon compounds and taxpayer dollars.

Most recently, the Department of Transportation (DOT) has turned down repeated requests for information related to the taxpayer costs of 23 flights Buttigieg and his advisers took on government private jets since taking office.

Why should The Little People be given any answers? And why should The Ruling Class abide by the rules they inflict on The Little People?

The DOT and the agency's Freedom of Information Act office both declined to detail how much each flight cost taxpayers over the course of multiple months and in recent weeks. The stonewalling comes amid an ongoing inspector general audit of Buttigieg's use of the planes, which are part of a small fleet managed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

"It's inexcusable that Secretary Buttigieg's agency is hiding the detailed costs of these taxpayer-funded flights," Caitlin Sutherland, the executive director of watchdog group Americans for Public Trust, told Fox News Digital. "Federal law dictates a timely release of exactly these types of records to the public."

...

Last month, Kerry's family quietly sold their private jet to a New York-based hedge fund following intense criticism of the plane's carbon footprint in light of Kerry's work fighting global warming.

Last year, Fox News Digital reporting revealed that Biden's regular trips to his home state of Delaware have cost taxpayers at least $11 million since the start of his presidency, as of November 2022.

Biden made 57 trips to Delaware, spanning all or part of 185 days, according to data from former CBS correspondent Mark Knoller.

The trips require taxpayer dollars to fund costs associated with the use of either Air Force One or Marine One as well as security costs for the Secret Service. The president spends time in Delaware at his homes in Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach.

Well in fairness, he just wants to spend more time with his purloined classified papers.

This next article is titled, Meet America' Most Delicate Snowflake: The Fox News Viewer.

It's about Fox News allegedly protecting its viewers from its 100% certain knowledge that no voter irregularities happened in 2020. Ignore the fact that the people who doubted the Dominion story, like Tucker Carlson, also did not promote that story.

No, this story wants to take, for example, Rupert Murdoch's belief that the story was crap and then say that Maria Bartiromo was obviously lying when she talked about the story. If Rupert Murdoch didn't believe the story, obviously, Maria Bartiromo also didn't, because as you can see with your own eyes -- they're the same person.

It also calls Fox News babies for not appreciating Fox's daring and moxie in calling Arizona 12 hours before anyone else was comfortable calling the razor-thin-margin state for anyone at all.

Take a guess: Who wrote it? Who wrote this piece of s*** which makes crap up to take snide and spiteful shots at Fox News? Who do you remember who specialized in this very low-intellect, very low-character kind of attack, while complimenting himself for being a true intellectual and also hilariously fully?

If you guessed Jonah Goldberg, put one hand on a buttcheek and give yourself an approving little spank, because you earned it, Sexy.

If you search for "safe space" on the Foxnews.com website you'll get over 46,000 results. All of them aren't about those woke snowflakes who need trigger warnings and cry rooms. But a lot of them are.

For instance, in 2017, shortly after the inauguration of Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson grilled a college professor about a student who came into her classroom crying about the election. "As the adult shouldn't you say, 'You know, it was an election, and it was democratic, and nobody got cancer, nobody died, and maybe you should toughen up a little?' "

Would that Carlson and the rest of Fox's leadership had a similar attitude toward their own audience, the average age of which is 56.

Speaking of being old-- you've pretty creaky now aren't you, fatboy?

"A little more than a week after television networks called the 2020 presidential election for Joseph R. Biden Jr.," the New York Times' Peter Baker reported, "top executives and anchors at Fox News held an after-action meeting to figure out how they had messed up."

The primary mess-up was the network's decision to call Arizona for Joe Biden at 11:20 p.m. on election night. The call infuriated the Trump campaign and viewers alike.

Save for Washington managing editor Bill Sammon, who also served on the "Decision Desk" that made the call, attendees at the meeting believed the Arizona announcement hurt Fox's "brand" -- not because they got it wrong, or even because they got it right. It hurt the brand because it hurt people's feelings.

Actually -- and how many times do we have to point this out to the chronically ignorant and dishonest, like Jonah? -- the eventual recount showed that the difference between Trump votes and Biden votes was razor-thin, and FoxNews' estimate of what the actual vote was, a 5% difference, I think, their "experts" proclaimed, was wildly wrong. And no, no election-caller would call an election if they knew the difference between two candidates was less than 1%.

It was a coinflip, as they say. Therefore it should not have been called -- no other organization called it until, I believe, the next day.

But Jonah and his Fellow Fatty Chris Stirewalt say they were right to call it because the random flip of the coin that determined the ultimate winner did turn out to be, supposedly, Biden.

That is not statistical analysis -- that is guessing.

...

It's unclear whether some Fox opinion hosts were complicit or simply useful idiots in this scheme. But there's no evidence the executives were in on any of that. Their overriding concern was simply not to hurt the feelings of the viewers and thereby lose them to upstart pro-Trump rivals One America News Network and Newsmax, which were all too happy to be safe spaces for election fraud lies.

That's right, because the establishment liberals Bill Sammon and Christ Stirewalt -- as well as the straight-up leftwing Democrat and Hillary donor Arnon Mishnik -- were seen as being more eager to repudiate the non-GOPe wing of the party than even CNN and MSNBC were. And that's because they were more eager to repudiate the non-GOPe wing of the party than CNN and MSNBC.

So I'm sure you're all as shocked as I am to see Jonah Goldberg once again repackage leftwing talking points about Dominion and Fox News viewers being "snowflakes" and passing these off as "conservative" ruminations.

By the way, Chubbo -- is your new employer, MSNBC, reporting on the Twitter Files to your new audience? Is it reporting that Anthony Fauci lied when he claimed he just stumbled across a paper purporting to debunk the lab leak theory, when he in fact commissioned the paper? Is it reporting that a meta-study of 78 other studies -- the Cochrane Study -- has proven that masking and masking mandates were completely ineffective in slowing the covid virus?

Is it reporting any of these things that your new leftwing audience doesn't want to hear? Or is it coddling these snowflakes?

And speaking of -- say, is your Pierre Omidyar-funded Democrat propaganda operation reporting on any of these things, or nah?

This is a TikTok, so fair warning about the CCP and all, but it's pretty good -- a virtue-signalling woke "ally" gets pwnd.

Kevin McCarthy: Tucker Carlson didn't jeopardize national security in his reporting on January 6th -- but CNN sure did, in reporting the location of a congressional bug-out location.

He also points out that he asked the Capitol Police if they had security objections to any of the clips Tucker aired. They objected to one, and he says "we were able to fix that."

He then points out that the January 6th Committee never asked the Capitol Police about security concerns about a single clip they showed.
