Competitive Enterprise Institute subpoenaed in global warming 'fraud' investigation(Deniers)

The Competitive Enterprise Institute has been issued a subpoena by the attorney general of the VIrgin Islands to hand over all communictions between 1997 and 2007 on climate change.

CEI has been a major voice in the climate change debate, debunking many of the "facts" offered by global warming hysterics....

Lawfare writ large. The problem is that while trying to quash this ridiculous subpoena, other groups and individuals will be silenced, or at least, have their First Amendment rights curtailed by this bullying.

Of course, this is the purpose of the subpoena in the first place. For years, global warming hysterics have compared skeptics to Nazis, called for their arrest and prosecution - or worse. They are so besotted with ideology that the thought that someone could honestly disagree with them is non-existent.

Deniers and disbelievers beware. Who's next?

[PROCON]

So the Climate Inquisitions begin.

Will we deniers have to have a 'D' tattooed on our foreheads?

[rktman]

Nah. Just an ugly Christmas sweater with a big “D” on the front. I already ordered mine.

[wjcsux]

The Inquisition begins.

[PROCON]

No, no, in the NEW America, Christmas will be outlawed because it isn't "inclusive" to favored "religions."

It'll have to be a Festivus sweater :-)

[rktman]

Okay, a kwanzaa sweater then. :>) (Still think we should open a shop with all things related to ron karenga’s holiday and call it the “kwanzaa hut”.)

Bkmk

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

[IronJack]

What judge issued the subpoena? If it can be established that the climate change liars conspired with his biases to issue a burdensome subpoena with the intent of silencing opposition, then it is impeachable. And criminal.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Sheldon Whitehouse wants “deniers” jailed for their disbelief.

[jimtorr]

No, you can’t wear a Kwanzaa sweater. That would be cultural appropriation, after all.

Since when did Americans ever shive a git what the attorney general of the Virgin Islands wanted. Bite me is the correct response here.

[fella]

Galileo, who says history doesn't repeat itself?

“Since when did Americans ever shive a git what the attorney general of the Virgin Islands wanted.”

Not a lawyer, but as a U.S. territory, won’t this set a legal precedent?

[rktman]

Well, not if one were to “self-identify” as a minority. Think racheal dolezal. I could claim to be an albino. :>)

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Hit them with subpoena back that demands all communications about the Competitive Enterprise Institute and/or Exxon.

My guess is that few people ever envisioned, a government that would not only prevent natural disaster mitigation, but would also prosecute anyone preparing for a known predictable disaster. That natural disaster of course is the return of the Ice Age. 100 % of scientist agree that Ice Ages have occurred and will occur again. Proof positive that government is the greatest threat to humans.

[wjcsux]

I love that movie! A real classic!

[ronnie raygun]

SCAM can you INTELLIGENT idiots say SCAM!

[sphinx]

No need for a D tattoo. The process is the punishment. The idea is to use government funds to harass, and if possible, bankrupt opponents.
