OF COURSE: Climate Change Warrior Kathy Hochul Has Spent More Than $400K on Private Jets
New York Governor Kathy Hochul cares very deeply about climate change. She recently signed a bill that aims to fine fossil fuel companies $75 billion for supposed damage to the climate.
In her personal life however, she follows a different set of rules, naturally.
Hochul has spent a small fortune on private jets. Doesn’t that kind of violate the whole ‘save the world from climate change’ thing?
The New York Post reported:
Gov. Hochul, NY’s biggest climate-change booster, has spent $415K on private jets: ‘It’s very wasteful’
She’s taking a tough line on fossil fuels — except the ones she’s spewing.
Gov. Hochul — who recently approved a controversial law that will force oil, natural-gas and coal companies to pony up $75 billion for carbon emissions allegedly contributing to global warming — has taken at least 30 flights aboard private jets since 2021, state Board of Elections records show.
The $415,000 tab was picked up by her campaign committee, records show.
“It’s very wasteful, especially for an elected official. There is no reason why any elected official in New York should be taking a private jet. Nearly everywhere in New York or upstate has a [commercial] airport that will take you anywhere in the country. New York is one of the most well-connected places on the planet,” said a local pilot experienced in private aviation.
Hochul flew with two private-airline companies, Zephyr Jets and Apollo Jets, in the last four years. It is unclear what the destinations were, but no flight cost less than $5,000 while her most expensive was trip was billed Jan. 17 for $38,594.00, records show.
Is anyone surprised?
Always the same.

Isn’t it fascinating how the people who talk the most about the importance of addressing climate change never seem to live by the rules they want to impose on everyone else?
