One, how do they expect a "new policy" to protect anyone? Do they think the next administration cannot/will-not simply change that policy? Idiots.

Two, if what passes for "climate science" was real science and had a shred of integrity, it would not need artificial protections. The fact that the scammers in place feel the need to try to stack the deck in their favor is yet another in a long long list of examples of how phony the whole global warming scam is.

These geniuses must not know that it’s OUR money they are playing with. What the government gives, the government certainly can take away.

“Moniz, a physicist, gave an example of his own role in negotiating the Iran nuclear deal.”

That wasn’t overly bright. He should have picked an example where they didn’t make fools of themselves!

>>>>Moniz, a physicist, gave an example of his own role in negotiating the Iran nuclear deal. “Seven of our laboratories were providing near real-time support to our negotiating positions in a highly technical negotiation,” Moniz said,<<<<<<

IRAN. That’s the REAL issue they want to protect. I wonder how much of the Iran deal is connected to this issue???

If the Department needs a “scientific integrity” policy, then it is probably lacking scientific integrity.

Scientific integrity... like they practice in the area of Climate Change?

Didn’t read the article because I won’t click on the WaPo, but read the short blurb. Agree, if Moinz is an example of the type scientist they employ, they are not scientists but political hacks masquerading as scientists — driven by their politics and not science. To use the Iran deal as an example of good science is absurd.

The document also embraces a strong commitment to whistleblower protection laws and says the agency will install a “scientific integrity official” within the Energy Secretary’s office to head up enforcement of the policy.<<<

LMAO!...It's Amazing how Trump can make them CUT THEIR OWN THROATS!....Trump can now appoint a real “scientific integrity offical” and fire 2/3rds of them for lack of integrity!!!....Will the winning ever stop!

And then .. we could (if we’re smart), elect Mike Pence for another 8 years.

Sounds good to me.
