Ah Dr. Michael Mann, keeps giving us gifts. As Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. once quipped:
If Michael Mann did not exist, the skeptics would have to invent him.
Looks like doomsday from Dr. Mann’s perspective, according to his Twitter feed (from which I’m blocked h/t to Shub). Maybe Mike is just worried POTUS has more Twitter followers than he does…

Universities are businesses and like when the dollars are flowing in. State Penn was very happy when Mikey was on the gravy train. I wonder… will the university be so happy when the train leaves the tracks?
Ah, the high honor of being blocked by Michael E. Mann.
An stellar example of “How to win friends and influence people”? Or did he study under Lysenko?
I feel the Love… I’m blocked too. Must be a list somewhere.
Yes. Mikey is telling the truth when he says “horror.” The hustle for which has been a part of is about to unravel. The horror!!
POTUS, one tweet and 5.35 million followers…hmmm…”flashy(apparently widely distributed)”.
LOL
“At 11:59 am eastern, the official White House website had a lengthy information page about the threat of climate change and the steps the federal government had taken to fight it. At noon, at the instant Donald Trump took office, the page was gone, as well as any mention of climate change or global warming.”

Trump made it perfectly clear that the political class and their money laundering scheme to make money for themselves was going to end.
Nice to see that he is keeping his word…
Real science makes a come back

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.’
The ‘Heart of Darkness’ you see is in the mirror Mike!
Since when has Michael Mann had any association with “reality?”
Hmmmm, I wonder if a 0.02C chill ran up his spine? Maybe we could get the DOJ to model his future and issue a report. We could call it the CCIP Report – Criminal Conspiracy Indictment Potential Report #1.
If you were looking at your projected income for next year and released that it might be on the low side…maybe you’d be horrified too!
Redirect most of the climate section budget(s) to real science that has been held back in recent years. Do the same with DoD budgets.
I’d feel better if they’d beef up the grid against a Carrington-class CME event, first.
He could try screaming.

Too funny…seriously, these people are delusional.
Sounded like e CHEER to me 🙂
“The Horror Has Become Real…….”
Marlon Brando, Apocalypse Now…..
ROFLMAO.
Oops….video link problem. Try again….
The Prophet Mike fortells the Apocalypse.
Wiki: An apocalypse (Ancient Greek: ἀποκάλυψις apokálypsis, from ἀπό and καλύπτω, literally meaning “an uncovering”) is a disclosure of knowledge or revelation.
So the true belivers STILL haven’t learnt their lesson? Trump used them VERY effectively to do his advertising during the election campaign and they STILL advertise him for free. 😀
Yes, the DNC, the Clinton campaign and the MSM media thought they had complete control of the media and the message:

Which is why they (the Progressives) are so dismayed, so distraught, so disillusional, and so out of touch with reality.
SJWs always double down.
Trump plays chess while all the losers are playing checkers.
Chess and Checkers are at least played on the same board, and have many stylistic similarities.
I’d say Trump is playing Risk, or maybe Monopoly. Obama was playing Candyland, Hillary was playing Mario Kart with the Media, and Mikey Mann is currently playing Russian Roulette. Let’s see how many more times he will pull the trigger before he ends up losing. ^¿^
Mann can take solace in fact that Mammoth Mtn (CA) just announced new Jan. record for “white global warming” aka snow.
And there’re still 11 days to go!
Translation = the coming budget cuts have become a real horror. BOOM!
Mann needs to start practicing saying “will you have fries with that”
“Will you have fries with that? or “would you like some Ketchup”? “or Mayonnaise?” Sorry that is three questions,
I doubt he would be able to handle three questions in a row, let alone the answer: “I’ll have all three”.
Ding! Fries are done!
The potential pending unemployment among “climate scientists” has long reminded me of the Graham Oakley illulstrated children’s book The Church Mice & the Moon in which a pair of third rate scientists working for the Wortlethorpe Municipal Moon Programme (WoMuMP) kidnap two church mice, train them as astronauts and send them to the moon in a rocket.
In the end of course justice triumphs; the two mice return safely to the church, the scientists are thrown out and end up busking for donations. The final panel is priceless:

The book can be ordered at Amazon. It was a big hit with both our kids.
Instead of arguing further over ECS, we need to come up with an Estimate of Climate Research Parasitism (ECRP), a measure of how many jobs will be created elsewhere for every one eliminated in politicized climate research.
To my mind, Mann’s ego-driven, self-serving meanderings long ago led me to conclude that he is the David Irving of “climate science” – or whatever they’re calling it this week. Talk about a “cause” in desperate search for a catchy name, eh?! But I digress …
For those unfamiliar with the name, Irving – who claims to be an “historian” and has the rather unpleasant habit of suing those who have the temerity to challenge his “findings” – is a Holocaust denier, and indisputably proved himself to be one in 2000 in the UK High Court.
Evidence in support of my “thesis” can be found at: The many misrepresentations of Mann
As for the much beleaguered little Mann, perhaps he could flog his hockey stick to the UN’s latest and greatest initiative: a “Global Action Plan for Sustainable Development Data”.
See: http://www.iisd.ca/undata/forum1/html/enbplus232num1e.html for all the predictable details.
And if he’s really lucky, maybe they’ll award the poor little “horror” stricken Mann an honorary drum on which to bang. See:

MODS: My post of 9:32 p.m. seems to be stuck in moderation.(possibly because I used the d* word?!)

Could you please retrieve and rescue. Thanks.
I just realized that adding an “E” to Mann’s initials spells MEME! How appropriate!
meme (mēm) n. A unit of cultural information, such as a cultural practice or idea, that is transmitted verbally or by repeated action from one mind to another.
(Notice that the definition doesn’t say anything about scientific support or validity.)
“The Horror Has Become Real”
At first glance, I thought Mann might be referring to the horror of climate change. But no, it was Trump. I guess the horror of climate change has yet to become real for him (or for anyone). It has always been about politics. Science is a distant runner up. That should tell us something.
‘political climate change’
I’m waiting for Doctour Mann and his love-thing Executives at AAAS, AGU, AMS and APS to begin a pollination operation of Phallus Proportions to spread their germ to all.
Insult your boss – the man who can have your funding cut, on his very first day in the job? Really, Mickey? Dangerous tactics, sunshine…
Mann has proven his stupidity across the spectrum; is anyone surprised with this childish, non-scientific outburst? I’m not!
Mann has never been a “scientist” in the true sense of the word. Instead, he’s been the #1 agitprop extraordinaire for the religion called Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming (with name changes to effect the propaganda as needed).
Mann is a melting snowflake of that religion and I love his theatrics!
He’s a scumbag and a half.
