Michael Mann’s harassment lawsuit against Mark Steyn has been going on for 12 years. Ridiculous.
Just heard this discussed on the radio the other day.It seems like he’s been taken through the ringer by this filthy punk. I also heard that Mark’s had three heart attacks recently and is confined to a wheelchair. He and Walter Williams were my two favorite guest hosts on Rush’s show.
My wife wanted to watch the “Yellowstone” series, so I agreed to watch it with her.
At some point, they introduce a lesbian couple into the plot.
No valid reason. Doesn’t bear on the plot. But they introduce them.
Strike One.
Then, one of the lesbians is a New York Reporter...in Montana. And when trying to pry information from the main character’s son, she says something like “I find that truth in the West is a scarce commodity...”
This coming from ANY New York reporter. I groaned aloud and said “Oh, for Pete’s sake!” and my wife promptly said “You don’t have to watch it with me.”
That line had no effect on her, because she isn’t paying attention to the world today in the way I do. Hypocrisy is one of the most galling transgressions of the Left (in all areas, politics, media, education) that they ferociously project onto Conservatives.
That line in the movie should have counted for at least two strikes for me, but I want to make the effort to spend time with her on these kinds of things this winter.
I’m still wondering why Mann left PSU for Penn.
Would love to hear the skinny on that....
I hold nothing but abject contempt for Michael Mann.
His non-rejection by the “scientific community” (large parts of it) says all you need to know about science today, which is on par with Dr. Floyd Ferris and Dr. Robert Statler at the “State Science Institute” in Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged”. For those who understand that reference, nothing further needs to be said. It symbolizes the fascist coordination between a tyrannical government and a compliant and cooperative ostensible “scientific community” to achieve the goals of a tyrannical government.
That is symbolized not only in the climate alarmism that is being codified in the State, the Media, and Educational entities, but in what we saw with COVID and the willing compliance of the medical community to go along with it at best, and at worst, to militantly embrace the fraudulent “science” in order to line their pockets. It is also what is seen with the transgenderism scam.
As for Michael Mann and his faux “science”, I followed this closely when I heard that the source code for the climate models that predicted doom for civilization had been hacked and inspected by people who knew how to do it, and they actually found comments in the model’s computer code (for those who don’t know, “Comments” in computer code are a form of documentation so that people understand what the computer code is actually doing.) that spelled out how it was meant to manipulate the code to achieve a deceitful and intentionally flawed result.
That is, it was meant to modify the output in order to get rid of uncomfortable or inconvenient data that Climate Alarmists like Michael Mann would have a hard time explaining without exposing their advocacy not of Science with a capital “S”, but instead, Climate Alarmism.
It has been some years since I examined the code and the analysis done by the people who got their hands on it, but that is how I remember it.
Hypocrisy is not the attribute which separates liberals from conservatives. Intent is. Members of both sides fail to practice their stated goals. Liberals intend to, but conservatives intend not to.
Like Chris Plante says....if the left didn’t have double standards, they’d have no standards at all.
Like stomping cockroaches and stink bugs, it’s satisfying but hardly truly accomplishing anything. We need Jesus to win.

DC courts are the beast's home courts. Fedzilla always wins. That's why the FISA court is located in DC, to permit the deep state to spy on any Republican threat it wants to.
