Fleischer Shreds Kerry Over Climate Hypocrisy: Opposed Wind Project 'because he didn't want to see the view outside his window' [VIDEO]

Former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer blasted Biden’s climate guy John Kerry for climate change hypocrisy after Kerry spoke about the Biden administration’s green energy policy plans.

“Remember, he is the man who opposed a wind project on the Nantucket Sound because he didn’t want to see the view outside his window,” Fleischer said on Fox News, following Kerry’s appearance at a White House briefing on climate change on Wednesday.

Kerry told reporters that the Biden administration will attempt to implement green energy policy changes that a president won’t be able to undo in the future.

“I think we can achieve things in the course of the next four years that will move the marketplace, the private sector, global finance, innovation, and research that in fact no one, no political person in the future, will be able to undo what the planet is going to be organizing over these next months and years,” Kerry said. “This is the start of something new.”

The former Massachusetts senator and failed presidential candidate also addressed concerns about the significant number of jobs that are expected to be lost by cutting down on fossil fuels, saying that “what President Biden wants to do is make sure those folks have better choices, that they have alternatives.”

Kerry has long been criticized for his opposition to a Cape Cod wind farm, saying that he supported the farm but opposed the location.

Critics also point out Kerry’s frequent use of private jets, which emit up to 40 times more carbon per passenger than commercial flights.
