Just show the emails Mann sent in the 2000’s that showed duplicity in his climate models.

He’s a liar. He showed he was willing to alter statistics and then lie about them.

“Mark fired his lawyer some time ago and elected to try his case pro se. I was afraid this might prove a bad mistake.”

Steyn is certainly getting legal advice from friendly (and amused) lawyers, and his tongue is much sharper than most lawyers.

12 years!

How’s that for justice?

As Mark Steyn himself says - America’s courts are a bloated, 3rd world, clogged toilet.

I can just hear Steyn in his trademark accent defending himself.

Typed in my best Mark Steyn voice doing minutes long run-on sentences: Michael Mann's hockey stiff graph is puck pooey like the roundabouts saturating New Hampshire with "climatlogists" like Mann always circling aimlessly until the bureaucracy leads Mann to the "results" that Al Gore wants for his carbon credit scheme because Mann likes the government money rolling in and it's easier to please Al Gore in that manner than to do a masseuse style chakra release for the aforementioned Gore of Tipper divorce fame and Pennsylvania State University has the audacity to call this "science" we can "trust" but we now know they believe less in science than they believe in America's first amendment which I assumed was still in place in the lower colonies until I'm forced to stand here in court for speaking the truth to not have to pay a compulsory jihad tax to Imam Mann for questioning his religion of a warmageddon future where it'll be too hot to survive much less worry what your pronouns are but at least the schools will quit telling the kids to ignore their parents because the schools will tell the kids to force their parents to turn off the A/C or the kids will dial up the climate constables to make the parents quit adding carbon to the atmosphere with their HVAC's meanwhile Mann isn't telling the university's donors from China to stop making coal plants out the wazoo faster than Biden can ask Kamala to rub his leg hairs...

“In a typical SLAPP, the plaintiff does not normally expect to win the lawsuit. The plaintiff’s goals are accomplished if the defendant succumbs to fear, intimidation, mounting legal costs, or simple exhaustion and abandons the criticism. In some cases, repeated frivolous litigation against a defendant may raise the cost of directors and officers liability insurance for that party, interfering with an organization’s ability to operate.” ~Wikipedia

Imagine, invoking SLAPP (Strategic Litigation Against Public Participation intimidation lawsuits) protections causing you to get tied up in court for an extra decade.

And that after the original judge was so incompetent she couldn’t keep straight who was the plaintiff, who was the defendant, and who made the argument she was ruling on or dismissing.

Mark Steyn has given several talks at the Heartland Institute on this subject and suit. This one is old (can’t find the most recent ) and Steyn starts at about 06:35:

The originator of the (horse) hockey stick - climate pseudo-science.

The University of East Anglia email dump (in 2009) was a treasure trove of proven malfeasance perpetrated by these climate hoaxsters.

I previewed the actual code written by Michael “Piltdown” Mann, used to draw the hockey stick graph. He placed comments on one section of the math algorithm, it referred to a purposeful fudge factor because the real data had been lost.

That’s exactly right, the fraudster Mann placed fake data points in the program so that it would plot the graph in a steady upward motion.

Anyone else would have been thrown in prison for this outrageous deception.

The Climatic Research Unit scumbags were ALL caught red handed. They later claimed that the emails were taken out of context. No they weren’t. The emails PROVED there was indeed a cabal of climate “scientist” conspiring to push the global warming hoax. These filthy pricks should ALL be fired along with the media enablers who hid the truth.
