Still a hockey stick

First, this tweet:

 

I read some tweets by Stephen McIntyre criticising this study due to some alleged massive mistake on (I think) Antarctic proxy temperatures.    However, when I go back to his twitter feed now, it seems he has become massively obsessed with proving a scandalous and earth shattering injustice was caused to Trump and his team regarding the Russia interference investigation.  Honestly, he has 60 tweet threads on the topic, and comes back to it again and again.  He seems, in short, a complete Right wing nut now. I can't even find the climate related tweets I read only (I think) last week, they are so swamped with political, conspiracy like, guff.

And, I should point out, as with his previous criticisms of Mann and the hockey stick, the key point should be "what difference does it make?  Do your own reconstruction the way you think it should be done and let us know what it looks like."  But as far as I know, he never does.

Why do you believe these conmen? They just lie. He's a liar and he always was. As soon as you get rid of the rigged data all this nonsense goes out the window. McIntyre gives me the drizzling shits as well. He almost always talks as if its just some minor dispute amongst the statisticians. No Stefan is a liar. He knows he's part of a con. I had to deal with these liars way back in 2005. The leopard never changes his spots.

And we don't have to worry about this anyway. Oil from traditional wells has already peaked and will fall. Coal in the US has peaked and will likely peak globally with two or three decades. Even the non-problem is obsolete. Instead we face a catastrophe of energy shortages and soil loss. If we just dealt with the energy and soil problems the CO2 non-problem would be solved within that framework.

Oh what do you know? No medieval warming period. How about that. The history books made it all up.

Just a repetition of the exact same lies we had with Mann. You are a grown-up Steve. Its time you stopped believing in Leprechauns, Unicorns, and everything people of the rabbinical persuasion tell you.

These people disgust me. All they have to do is tell these outrageous lies and they can live a life that is simply delicious. I think McIntyre is part of this dog and pony show.
