Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s Climate Hypocrisy
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg always lectures Americans about climate change, but he flies on taxpayer funded private jets.
GALLAGHER: Lot of coverage of Pete Buttigieg flying on private jets. The Transportation Secretary. Hundreds of thousands of dollars racked up on taxpayer expense to fly private. This is a climate change activist. He is a guy who is a big advocate in changing our personal behavior and changing how we live our lives. Cutting back. Too many carbon emissions. Listen to Kennedy and Emily Compagno yesterday on Outnumbered on Fox News Channel with some smart analysis.
KENNEDY: Anyone who is telling us that we have to have personal austerity in order to fight climate change, and the John kerries, pete buttigiegs, putting meghan and harries in this basket of deplorables. No matter what happens in the future, maybe no skyscrapers, no planes, we all have to go vegan. Shouldn’t anyone who espouses that hypermorallism in terms of environmentalism, shouldn’t they be the ones who have to live the most stringent lives in terms of keeping themselves from enjoying luxuries like private plane travel?
COMPAGNO: Of course. Walk the walk, man. Strap yourself to a tree and prevent that being cut down, I better seeing you writing on a brick. It’s ridiculous to me that our tax dollars are funding someone to travel to Canada to pick up an award for advancing LGBTQ rights. I walk to work, sit at the gate, count the minutes, while I’m delayed three hours for whatever flight I’m taking that I purchased myself to visit my family or collect an award. I hope the IG investigates, because I’d love for my tax dollars to stop paying for their hypocrisy.
GALLAGHER: How could anybody argue with that? What could you say? You can’t tell me that Pete Buttigieg isn’t capable of flying commercial. Joe Biden traveled commercial when he was Vice President.
