Vitter questions Treasury stymying of carbon tax FOIA request | Washington Free Beacon

Horner, author of the recent book The Liberal War on Transparency, called Treasury’s actions a “cartoonishly exaggerated case study” of the barriers the Obama administration “throws in the path of taxpayers when they are on to something.”

And we will.”

All US Warming Is Due To Adjustments | Real Science

The claimed warming trend in the US almost exactly matches the adjustments being made to the thermometer data.

The blue dots and red line show final USHCN2.5 temperatures (relative to 1895) – and the red dots and blue line show the adjustments that are being made. Note that the slopes are identical, which means that all claimed US warming is indeed Mann made, and Hansen made, and Karl made.
