‘Put them in jail’: Biden demands fossil fuel execs be locked up — But he outspent Dem rivals flying in private jets & continues to fly in them

Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden continues to fly in private jets and be transported in oversized SUV’s despite his call in 2019 to put fossil fuel executives “in jail” for failing to address climate change.

“Between the years 2021 and 2030, it is irreversible the path we set ourselves on,” Biden noted at a New Hampshire campaign town hall in December 2019. 
He continued, talking about how fossil fuel companies have to be responsible for their climate impacts.
“Holding them liable for what they have done…By the way, when they don’t deliver, put them in jail. I am not joking about that,” Biden said to applause at a town hall in Peterborough New Hampshire on December 29, 2019.
One attendee began speaking to Biden, saying, “If we don’t stop using fossil fuels.”
Biden interrupted him by saying, “We’re all dead.”

CNBC reported that Biden “spent way more on private jets in the third quarter than his top 2020 Democratic rivals.” “The Biden campaign spent nearly $924,000 on private jet travel in the third quarter, according to data from the Federal Elections Commission,” CNBC reported.
