Klimate Kerry's deputies discussed keeping discussions 'off paper'
2023-04-06
[FoxNews] Multiple top officials within Special Presidential Envoy for Climate (SPEC) John Kerry's office engaged in a discussion about keeping certain budgetary items "off paper," according to recently-released documents.

"I would also suggest a call or meeting soon with jk to update him on FY22 and 23, focusing on all the elements we can’t put on paper," Martinez-Diaz told the other officials in a March 9, 2022, email.

The emails, obtained via records request by watchdog group Protect the Public’s Trust (PPT) and shared with Fox News Digital, shed additional light on the internal deliberations in Kerry's climate office. The SPEC office, which is housed in the State Department, has been notably tight-lipped about its operations and doesn't publicly disclose its members.

"This statement epitomizes the SPEC office’s lack of transparency, even to the point of appearing to actively skirt federal records obligations," PPT Director Michael Chamberlain told Fox News Digital. "If the work of this office is as vital to the future of the United States and the world as John Kerry and others claim, they owe it to the American public to be honest, forthright, and open about what they are doing and who is doing it."

#1  We need to start using the term "subversive" again. Anyone who thinks keeping agreements made ostensibly on behalf of the American people but hidden from their view fits that description! The modern "JFK" certainly fits that description.
