Kerry, who ran for president in 2004, is the first person to serve as the U.S. special presidential envoy for climate, as the position was created when Biden was inaugurated in January 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Kerry had endorsed Biden for president in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I believe Joe Biden is the President our country desperately needs right now, not because I\u2019ve known Joe so long, but because I know Joe so well,\u2019 Kerry said at the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Through it all, I\u2019ve seen Joe tested in public service and tested in life itself,\u2019 the statement added. \u2018I know his character.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Kerry\u2019s position, which was created by Biden without Senate approval, has been subject to scrutiny by Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>In July, more than two dozen Republicans introduced the No Taxpayer Funding for Climate Zealots Advancing Radical Schemes Act, which was intended to defund Kerry\u2019s position.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Climate czar John Kerry is the poster child for the Biden administration\u2019s anti-energy policies that are destroying both our economy and national security,\u2019 Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, told Fox News Digital in a statement at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in July, Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., accused Kerry of being not being transparent about his office during a hearing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I have two deputies and they are well known, they\u2019re very experienced people, Rick Duke and Sue Biniaz \u2026 but I\u2019m not going to go through all that,\u2019 Kerry responded. \u2018I\u2019m not going to fill them in here in this way, because that would be a violation of our process within the State Department.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019m not going to go through them by name because that is not the required process of the State Department,\u2019 he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Fox News Digital\u2019s Thomas Catenacci and Peter Hasson contributed to this report.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Read this article for free!
