The Trump administration is mandating that any studies or data from scientists at the Environmental Protection Agency undergo review by political appointees before they can be released to the public.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

The Politruks Must Review All Studies to Ensure that They are Ideologically Compatable.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Yeah, that is scary.....But so is an EPA populated with "believers"...having chased out all the "skeptics"...and having squelched all data that refutes Glowbal Warming". Plus cheating on and falsifying data...
ReplyDeleteIf the EPA had any credibility left, The Donald wouldn't get any traction on this..... But they don't. They abandoned any pretense of impartiality about 15 years ago. There is little science left at the EPA.
While I don't blame him for doing it, I don't like the idea, either.
Wow. No, don't do it Doug. You told yourself you would be polite.
ReplyDeleteAlso of note are the pair of twenty-something goons, I mean staffers (well, one of them is probably certifiable) who just took over VOA, with it's brand new CEO-led structure (no more board of governors) new (since 2013) ability to broadcast inside the US, and $800 million budget.
As for the EPA, the scientists who work for and with them saw this coming back in November and have been scrambling to archive their data sets and store them in Canada before they can be deleted by the incoming wave of anti-science political appointees.

Canada wouldn't be safe for data, either. The Conservative Harper government destroyed decades of data from the Department of Oceans and Fisheries.
ReplyDeleteFunny, every time the deniers come up with a new "squelched data" theory, the process of scientific review takes place. Then the theory is proven incorrect and they seek another. The "pause", busted...turns out the people fiddling the data were the skeptics...
