Fake leftist scientist Michael Mann.
In the never-ending legal battle between fake climate scientist Michael Mann and his critics, Rand Simberg and Mark Steyn, Mann has once again lost badly in an appeal to a higher court, with the Superior Court in DC not only ruling that Mann must immediately pay Simberg and Steyn a total of more than $27K in court costs and fees, but blasting Mann for his lies to the court during the proceedings.
The fact remains that Dr. Mann throughout this litigation complained that he suffered lost grant funding directly stemming from the defamatory statements of Messrs. Simberg and Steyn, while providing very little in the way of specifics about the dollar amounts of his losses directly attributable to the statements (such as corroborating testimony from percipient witnesses), all while promising to illuminate the Court at trial. At trial, Dr. Mann elected through his attorneys to present to the jury a blown-up demonstrative, without redaction or explanation, a demonstrative intentionally prepared for its use at trial, which included a budget (loss) amount of $9,713,924.00, when the correct amount, previously corrected during a third round of discovery, was $112,000.
…the Court simply cannot condone such bad faith litigation tactics, particularly in a case that had been zealously litigated across several years and a case involving complicated facts. Thus, the Court’s ruling must stand. It is the Court’s duty to punish and deter bad faith litigation tactics.
In other words, Mann didn’t simply falsify his scientific results, using false data in his infamous hockey stick graph to create the illusion of human-caused global warming, when Simberg and Steyn called him out on this fake science, he tried to sue them using more fake data that was quickly revealed in discovery to be outright lies.
The court has thankfully decided it cannot tolerate such behavior.
What must be understood about Mann is that he is a very typical leftist radical, .....SNIP

The polar icecaps have not melted yet.
PSU and Penn...
Chose well, didn’t you...
Too bad Steyn & the rest will never be made whole again.
This week they seem to be advancing a bit. :)
I hope the judge sanctions Mann’s attorneys, but I also doubt that will happen.
Mann broke his hockey stick...again.
And Mann is just one person, in a just world another 100 million people worldwide would be forced into bankruptcy after being fined by higher courts. It’s -21° here in SW MI not including the wind chill factor or lake effect. It might get up to ZERO° today, we’ll see.
And hooray, for Mark who has been fabulous for years and years. Best sub for Rush, ever.
Mann is a liar. From his Bull shit reaserch to his Bull Shit defense when he was exposed, nothing but lies on top of lies on top of more lies. He lays it on thicker and thicker as he goes on.
“Best sub for Rush, ever.”
And why Mark could not have taken over the show after Rush died is beyond reason. He had Rush’s staff, momentum and style.
Instead two ex-CIA hacks were installed that are terrible (if they are still on the air)
“The polar icecaps have not melted yet.”
Wanted to be one of the first tourists to visit Greenland but why bother, I can look out our picture window. It’s colder here than in Greenland by over 30°. Look it up!
60.053, -43.153
Heard that...if you are into podcasts there are number of good ones that weren’t around in Rush’s day but no one will ever match Mr. Limbaugh.
Mark has sounded a little rough the last few years and said on his website that his health was not so good, he may have declined for personal reasons.
Steyn’s a peach 🍑.
A bruised peach now, but still a peach.
Clay and Buck.
Hangout and Limited.
He changed the data to make the hockey stick which Climate Change exists.
“The polar icecaps have not melted yet.”
NYC isn’t covered by miles of ice yet. That was the 70’s hysterical climate screed.
This can’t happen to a better Mann!
“An Inconvienient Truth” supporter has received his own inconvenient truth.
NYC was covered in ice in algore’s stupid movie, also.
He was at UVa early on. That’s when he created his “hockey stick” in collaboration with UK’s East Anglia CRU. Back when Va was sane, Allen state government I think. The AG sued UVa and Mann to release his data and algorithms based on the not unreasonable idea it was all paid for by public money. (UVa state university state taxpayer even pays professor salaries!) The local state Court sided with UVa and Mann and the rest is expensive history.
Major heart issues. I believe he has had two heart attacks
