Now that the lid has been blown off of the Climate Crisis Fraud, it’s time for the U.S. Senate to conduct hearings into the mess. Yesterday, Senator James Inhofe (R OK) called for hearings with a letter to Senator Ma’am, head of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works (EPW). Inhofe, the ranking member of the committee, released this yesterday (excerpt):

Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, sent a letter today to EPW Committee Chairman Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) requesting hearings on the recent disclosure of emails between some of the world’s most preeminent climatologists—emails that reveal apparent attempts to manipulate data, vilify scientists with opposing viewpoints, and circumvent information disclosure laws.
“The emails reveal possible deceitful manipulation of important data and research used by the US Global Change Research Program and the IPCC,” Inhofe wrote. “For instance, one scientist wrote of a ‘trick’ he employed to ‘hide the decline’ in global temperature trends, as well as discussed attempts to ‘redefine what the peer-review literature is’ to prevent papers raising questions about anthropogenic global warming from appearing in IPCC reports.” [more…]
