DONALD Trump Jr has dubbed John Kerry a “Liberal hypocrite” after he was reportedly spotted on an American Airlines plane wearing no mask.
The ex-president’s 43-year-old son asked if Kerry would now be fined for flouting Biden’s January 21 executive order mandating face coverings during interstate travel.
After Biden made the executive American Airlines requires all passengers wear masks on board.
But Kerry, who is the President’s private jet-using climate envoy, appears to have forgotten the rules.
The Tennessee Star reported how a fellow passenger photographed him wearing no mask while flying from Boston to Washington.
Responding to the alleged mask flouting, Trump Jr tweeted.
He wrote: “SPOTTED: Liberal hypocrite & Biden Admin official @JohnKerry flouting @JoeBiden‘s Federal mask mandate.
“NOTE: His mask is off & he isn’t eating or drinking.
“Will he be fined for breaking the law & banned from flying @AmericanAir like regular citizens would be?”
In response to the photo, American Airlines tweeted “We require masks onboard our aircraft and are looking into this.”
In a statement released last month, the airline stated: “Consistent with U.S. government directives, individuals who refuse to wear a mask may be denied boarding, removed from the aircraft or subject to penalties under federal law, in addition to being barred from future travel with American.”
Kerry has not comment on the photograph.
It comes after Ted Cruz was seen flying without a mask in July aboard an American Airlines flight — and the airline says they’re investigated what happened.
Cruz, a Republican from Texas, was aboard a commercial flight on Sunday, looking down at his phone and not wearing any face covering, according to a photo posted to Twitter.
In January, it emerged the private jet of Kerry’s family emitted as much carbon dioxide in the past year as 36 passenger cars.
Kerry’s family jet logged about 166 metric tons of carbon from February 9, 2020 to January 10, 2021, Fox News reported on Friday using the Paramount Business Jets emissions calculator.
As a point of comparison, the typical car emits an estimated 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually, assuming it travels 11,500 miles and registers about 22 miles per gallon, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
Furthermore, private jets emit up to 40 times as much carbon dioxide per passenger than commercial flights do.
Biden appointed Kerry, a former Secretary of State, as his Special Presidential Envoy for Climate in late November.
