White House Climate Envoy John Kerry went viral on Tuesday after telling French television that President Biden was unaware of the spat between the U.S. and France as it fueled last month. During a Monday interview with BFMTV, Kerry attempted to smooth over the international dustup after France expressed it was blindsided by the Biden administration's tri-lateral agreement between the U.S., U.K, and Australia over the exchange of submarine technology so much so that it prompted French President Emmanuel Macron to briefly pull his ambassador to the U.S. out of the country. "[Biden] asked me. He said, ‘What’s the situation?' And I explained- he had not been aware of that. He literally had not been aware of what had transpired," Kerry said towards the end of the interview. "And I don’t want to go into the details of it, but suffice it to say, that the president, my president is very committed to strengthening the relationship and making sure that this is a small event of the past and moving on to the much more important future."

He was unaware because he forgot or because nobody bothered to tell him. Further evidence that this clown is asleep at the wheel or isn't running the country. On a side note, the little French worm still isn't returning the calls of Australia's PM. A short message for Macron:

President Emmanuel Macron has switched to using a darker navy blue on the official French flag, replacing the previous brighter shade, officials have told local media. The move saw flags in the new hue hoisted on the presidential palace last year without any accompanying fanfare. Mr Macron wanted to bring back the navy blue flag, a symbol of the French Revolution, Europe 1 said........The Élysée Palace has not publicly announced its change in flags, and no orders have been given for other institutions to do the same.

Meh, it could have been worse, he could have replaced the blue with a frog (or a ventilator). Why he felt the need to sneak in the change without consulting his people is more concerning. Probably his Napoleon complex kicking into gear as he prepares to take the reigns of the EU in a couple of weeks.

I would call it a great move if it wasn't for everything else he stands for. A departure from the EU Blue that they matched their flag with in the 1970's is not a bad thing.
