We thought we knew about John Kerry’s hypocrisy and greed, but guess again.
It turns out that while the former Massachusetts senator and current Biden administration climate czar was lecturing us all about climate change, he was holding dirty oil and gas stocks and pulling down millions in corporate earnings.
Kerry’s financial disclosure forms show his massive stock portfolio and assets, some of which he was forced to divest since taking his position as Special Presidential Envoy.
The jet-setting former senator pulled down a $5 million salary in a no-show job as chairman of Bank of America’s global advisory council, $125,000 in consulting fees from something called The Rise Fund, which was founded by U2 singer Bono, and $382,400 in speaking fees from Waste Management and Deutsche Bank, among dozens of others.
Kerry was also president of the Vietnam Sustainable Energy Corp. and chairman of the advisory board for Climate Finance Partners, entities that could benefit from decisions made by Kerry as climate czar. He received a $39,000 salary from Yale University, his alma mater, and a $112,500 “honorarium” from MedStar Washington, according to his filing, reviewed by the Herald.
In a statement, the State Department says he got rid of assets that could pose a conflict of interest and were identified by the Ethics Office.
Among those were about three dozen energy-related companies dealing in electric, oil and gas — even nuclear — precisely the kind of energy Kerry and his climate crisis pals want us all to get rid of.
An analysis by ABC News revealed that in March Kerry divested between $4 million and $15 million in assets from more than 400 companies. The assets were part of a huge stock portfolio held by him and his wife, ketchup heiress Teresa Heinz.
Included in those stock sales was up to $15,000 in Cabot Oil & Gas, up to $50,000 in gas company Valero and up to $50,000 in Conoco Philllips, as well as stock in a half dozen other energy companies.
“The State Department’s Ethics Office reviewed Special Presidential Envoy Kerry’s assets and investments upon his appointment to identify holdings that could pose a significant risk of a conflict of interest,” the State Department spokesperson said. “Special Presidential Envoy Kerry agreed to divest the assets identified by the Ethics Office and has done so.”
Special Presidential Envoy Kerry was finally forced to disclose his financials because of the position he’s in in the White House, but it took awhile.
Corona testing is equal to counting the bird droppings on the windscreen of a car and announcing that it represents the number of birds \inside\ the car.
Here’s one that has bothering me:
If for some reason I am compelled to be tested for COVID, even after explaining that I have “recovery” immunity, and that test is positive, will I be forced to quarantine?
Or, is that illegal restraint (kidnapping)?

I think it will get rather ugly if that happens.
You still have it wrong.
We do have as high or higher the “concentration of normal people as Indiana”. Do you live here? No you do not.
You only know what you saw in a visit, or what you’ve heard.
Again....what we have are fraudulent elections.
Did you not see the fraud that took place in 2020 nationwide? Well that is what happens here. And our corrupt CA politicians make that happen.
How can we remove them if our elections are fraudulent?

Yeah, I loved it but have no problem moving on.
good to hear! be vigilant!
IMO the communist have their sights on Alaska. The reason I say that is Alaska approved ranked-choice voting in 2020. With its small population liberals from California and Seattle have moved to the state it hasn’t tipped the scales yet. Alaska is not a place for sissies or soy boys and most of them can’t hack living there luckily. Next election cycle in Alaska will be worth watching just to see how ranked choice voting effects a state that has been Republican for a long time. They tried to get it in Florida but it failed.

In absolute terms, California does have more raw numbers of “normal” people than Indiana because it has many times the population.
But Indiana does not have an LA, San Francisco, or Silicon Valley to distort the culture of the state.
Thus, California has more corrupt politicians and more fraud.
You cannot remove them; you must excise yourselves out and remove yourselves from them.
Even if there is a major arrest of corrupt pols, the culture of these cities remains and infects the entire state because of the population concentrations.
So take the millions of normal Californians in the smaller cities and the more rural parts and go your own way. Make 3 or 4 more Indianas. Please. I beg you. The whole country would be better off.
I’ll go get my magic wand.
In the meantime, how about you go pick on other good people in other States.
Because I don’t know if you know....the same type of evil, corrupt jerks here in CA, are using fraudulent elections to fake flip this whole Nation blue.

Biden Admin Moves to Make Air Conditioners Too Expensive for Americans
Excerpt:
...The crackdown on air conditioners and refrigerators has been underway for a while now. But Biden, Democrats and some Republicans are really ramping it up.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking a major step Monday to battle climate change with the formal proposal of a rule phasing down the use of planet-warming gases called hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which are used as refrigerants, the agency announced Monday.
The reduction will decrease HFC production and use in the U.S. by 85 percent over the next 15 years. The rule is being issued under a law passed last year by Congress.
The agency said it will create an allocation and trading program under which it will issue an allowance for how much of the gases can be used for 2022 by Oct. 1.
...You can thank the usual gang for screwing Americans on this.
The Trump administration rolled back Obama administration policies aiming to fulfill the country’s commitment to reduce HFCs in a 2016 international agreement called the Kigali Amendment.
The rule came after bipartisan lawmakers agreed to pass a law requiring the phasedown of the use of HFCs by 2036, which was championed by Sens. Tom Carper (D-Del.) and John Kennedy (R-La.).
The provision was incorporated into a government spending bill after a compromise with Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), which added language preventing states from passing their own stricter HFC regulations for at least five years.
...Americans lose. Some companies make more money. Environmentalists get closer to their endgame.
The package reconciles some of the key provisions from Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Joe Manchin’s sweeping bipartisan energy bill, the American Energy Innovation Act, and House Democrats’ similar Clean Economy Jobs and Innovation Act.
Murkowski and Manchin’s bill, considered the most comprehensive update to U.S. energy law in more than a decade, fell apart before the coronavirus pandemic because of a dispute over whether to allow a vote on a bipartisan amendment to limit chemical coolants called hydrofluorocarbons, or HFCs, used in air conditioners and refrigerators.

When Trump returns he will need to destroy corrupt organizations like the EPA. Thank you Richard Nixon for creating one of the most nefarious agencies intending to destroy the American way of life.
I sent the email...I seldom get a response on these types of emails (though I did get one on the questions re: John McCain’s funeral)
