A Small Victory...

Well, finally, after thirteen long years Michael E. Mann has been made to put some personal skin in the game.

Followers of last year's trial in the District of Columbia will recall that Mann testified that he had not contributed anything to his legal action against Mark and his co-defendants National Review and CEI. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

Where did the funding come from to pay his several lawyers for twelve plus years of his lawfare? He was not required to reveal it under examination. And, we can only speculate...

Between last night and today, the current DC Superior Court judge has made two orders:

The first, denied Mann's motion seeking attorney fees from Mark.

The second, ordered Mann to pay $530,820.21 in attorney fees and costs to National Review! As mentioned at the top, this will be the first time that Mann will be asked to contribute to the cost of his unending lawfare to silence criticism of his statistical model commonly referred to as a "hockey stick" due to its design.

Amen to that. Steyn did not back down. Mann is a fraud; when you refuse to reveal your experimental data, you are a fraud.

Love hearing this. Some small semblance of justice. Mann seems like a grifter par excellence.

IT was a small price to pay for the climate collusion fake, IMO. He, NASA’s Hansen and EA/CRU’s Phil Jones actively worked for years to suppress research reporting that did not contain the bit climate scare.

I am so glad to hear this. May God sort this out so that skillfully defended untruths do not continue to distort our legal system.
