"Climate science is probably one of the most robust and scrutinized scientific fields in the history of science because of the economic implications... I can't tell you how many people looked at this and agreed with me that this was a mockery and we needed to respond to it." -- Andrew Dessler, Director of the Texas Center for Extreme Weather at Texas A&M University, commenting on the Trump Department of Energy's 151-page report, "A Critical Review of Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions on the U.S. Climate." The Secretary of Energy, Chris "Never" Wright, is a former fossil fuel executive, of course. The DOE report was written by five people who were selected by Wright after the Malignant Fascist fired 400 scientists who had been writing the report. Dessler organized an international group of 85 scientists who reviewed DOE's "report," and submitted comments. The American Meteorological Society also submitted comments citing "foundational flaws" to the fossil fuel industry-friendly DOE report.
At the same Dessler link as above, Dr. John Balbus, who was formerly at the Department of Health and Human Services as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Climate Change and Health Equity, comments on HHS Secretary "Brainworm" Kennedy's lies about vaccines. The recent firings of career scientists at the Centers for Disease Control over their refusal to support Brainworm's anti- vaccination propaganda, in addition to many hundreds of others who've gone public with concerns about politicizing science at HHS and the Environmental Protection Agency (only to face suspension or possible firing) led Dr. Balbus to comment, "When you see nearly a thousand public servants risking their livelihoods to alert the public that senior officials cannot be trusted, that is a clear warning."
The Malignant Fascist is ruining our country and killing its citizens. How's that for an even clearer warning?!
