The Biden administration’s climate czar John Kerry can’t help but gush about China even as the Chinese Communist Party continues to embarrass him diplomatically while suggesting they don’t care one iota about Kerry’s climate change chicanery. The guy is a total CCP simp, and his comments after an international meeting between U.S.-CCP leaders this week prove it.

First, the term “simp” refers to guys “who do way too much” for girls they have zero chance of dating. In turn, those women walk all over them and take advantage. It’s sort of new, online slang. Those caught “simping” are typically unaware of how pathetic they look. It is arguably worse than being friend-zoned. At least in the friend zone, the man is aware he is stuck.

You don’t want to be a simp, but that’s exactly what Kerry is to the CCP.

China has no interest in making any concrete commitment to climate change, let alone cutting back on carbon emissions. Nonetheless, Kerry continues the praise.

“We came to Beijing in order to unstick what has been stuck for almost a year, and that’s the in-person dialogue between the United States and China,” he beamed this week.

Kerry has been fighting for the chance to speak with the CCP face-to-face for nearly 365 days — and he’s absolutely giddy that it finally happened. He sounds like a teenager who is excited because the popular girl smiled in his direction after months of being ignored.

So how did the meeting go? Well, he came up empty-handed.

“We had very frank conversations, but we came here to break new ground, which we think is important at this stage, and it is clear that we are going to need a little more work to be able to complete that task, which we still believe, both of us, is doable,” Kerry bemoaned.

The former Massachusetts senator was appointed by President Joe Biden in 2021. Since then, he has gallivanted around the world bullying third-world countries into giving up fossil fuels, down-played his family’s private jet usage, and told countries that “money, money, money…” is what will move climate change “progress” along.

However, all of what Kerry does is moot — if you actually believe that he wants to reduce pollution — if China is not on board with his plans.

Kerry has even been willing to ignore China’s troubling human rights record in hopes of scoring a carbon emissions deal with the country.

In the past, when Kerry has been asked about such issues, he has claimed that climate change takes the higher priority.

“Yes we have issues, a number of different issues, but first and foremost, this planet must be protected,” Kerry said after being asked about the problem in September 2021.

In turn, China ramped up coal production, began ignoring Kerry’s emails, and, as noted, didn’t even have the courtesy to meet with him face-to-face. So far in 2023, China emitted nearly 12 gigatons of carbon. The next closest country is the U.S. — which has emitted roughly five gigatons of carbon based on the latest data.

So what does CCP leader President Xi Jinping have to say about all of this? Well, after Kerry met with CCP leaders, Xi effectively told Kerry to kick rocks.

Xi did say that China would work to reduce C02 emissions. He stated, “the path, method, pace and intensity to achieve this goal should and must be determined by ourselves, and will never be influenced by others.”

Ouch.

Kerry, it’s time for a message your buddy Biden should have told you: Xi’s just not that into you, dude.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) is using his power to investigate every nook and cranny of the Biden family, and revealed his latest thoughts on the matter on Friday. Some conservative movement allies say that he deserves credit, but also that Congress’ job isn’t done yet.

On Friday, Comer told Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) what his committee’s next steps are and provided some key insight into the matter, as reported by the New York Post.

“We have more bank records that we’ve received,” Comer said to Cruz on his podcast “The Verdict.”

“We’re working on a third memorandum,” he said. “They will show transactions from Ukraine and Russia.”

Comer has always been quick to point out that his committee’s work is ultimately about the president — not a deep-dive of the president’s sons or family members’ personal problems.

To that extent, Comer said, “Joe Biden has been selling access to our enemies for decades — long before [first son Hunter Biden] was involved.”

The Post also noted that the Kentucky Republican also claimed that he believed that family bribes could explain many of the mind-boggling decisions as president.

“I think there are certain policy decisions that Joe Biden has made since he’s been president that the only explanation can be because of the money his family received,” Comer added.

Just two days earlier, America and Comer’s committee heard shocking, sworn testimony about the IRS investigation into Hunter Biden. After that House Oversight hearing, The Heritage Foundation’s “Oversight Project” Director Mike Howell emailed The Daily Wire his reaction.

“Chairman Comer is to be commended for his dogged investigation and literally providing the receipts via bank records,” Howell said. “The full weight of Congress should be behind achieving actual accountability, immediately.”

Still, Howell noted that the GOP Congress is tasked with actually implementing change — not simply uncovering the illicit behavior.

“The goal here is the de-weaponization of government, not just exposure, and Congress’ efforts will be judged by that standard,” Howell said.

Howell also noted, “This sort of activity, running a multimillion dollar international play to pay scheme involving the current President of the United States, is usually reserved for third world countries.”

The Heritage Foundation started the Oversight Project “to make government more transparent to the public and to allow Congress to use its oversight authorities with maximum effectiveness.” Their work includes fighting Hunter Biden’s plea deal and getting to the bottom of it how it came about.

“We are fighting this at Heritage in federal court and will be formally opposing the plea deal next week,” Howell told The Daily Wire. “In that fight, we forced the DOJ to admit that it has over 2,500 pages of communications between [U.S. Attorney David Weiss’s] office and DOJ or between Weiss’ office and other judicial districts about the Hunter Biden investigation. That’s a substantial amount of coordination for a supposedly independent investigation. The Hill should subpoena and obtain that document set immediately.”

Howell also praised the two IRS Whistleblowers — Gary Shapley and Joe Zeigler — for testifying before Comer.

“The courageous IRS whistleblowers provided sworn testimony today confirming major political interference into the Hunter Biden investigation,” Howell added. His full statement to The Daily Wire can be read here.

As for who else knew about Biden’s potential impropriety, Comer speculated to Cruz that even former President Barack Obama might have known what sort of scheme the Biden clan was allegedly running.
