Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris drew criticism on social media after she posed for a Thanksgiving photo near a gas stove, a move seen as hypocritical amid attempts by the Biden administration to restrict access to the gas appliances.
“From our family to yours, happy Thanksgiving,” Harris wrote alongside a photo of herself and husband Doug Emhoff, with a gas stove beside them.

The photo comes as the Biden administration has been seriously looking at banning gas stoves, with the Department of Energy and Consumer Product Safety Commission both looking at ways to curtail their manufacturing and usage.
The gas-powered appliance immediately caught the attention of many, who pointed out Harris is not in compliance with her own administration’s climate change initiatives.

Hypocrisy at its best? @VP @KamalaHarris and @SecondGentleman Douglas Emhoff’s Thanksgiving picture shows they are using a gas stove!
NOTE: Last June, the Republican-controlled House passed bipartisan legislation to prevent the Biden federal government from banning gas stoves.… pic.twitter.com/YyW8LrZuZx

Some pointed out how Democrats love gas stoves for themselves, but not for the average American.
YOUR gas stove must be banned, but not THEIR gas stove! pic.twitter.com/09hyOcPSAu

Meanwhile, X Community Notes has stuck up for the Biden administration, citing an AP article claiming the admin doesn’t support a ban on gas stoves.
At the same time, the entire state of New York moved to ban the sale of gas stoves earlier this year.
Democrat New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s hypocrisy was highlighted at the time after she also posed near a gas stove.
In Kathy Hochul’s New York, it’s rules for thee, but not for me.
While she is pushing Far Left gas stove bans for New Yorkers while continuing to use them herself.
This is Hypocrisy Hochul at her finest.https://t.co/eDfmFjmXSC

While the AP claims no such ban is happening at a federal level, the State of California meanwhile is also phasing out sales of natural gas furnaces and water heaters by the year 2030 in the name of its anti-fossil fuel green energy agenda.
Democrats think they’re sneaky, however social media is making sure they’re held accountable for their actions.
