@Veritatem2021 @AristotleMrs The Wegman Report was not "disgraced." No substantive faults were found in its analyses or conclusions.

The only fault found was w/r/t proper attributions:

"text from background sources was mistakenly used in the Introduction without proper reference to the original source"

@Veritatem2021 @AristotleMrs The later Yasmin et al article Computational Statistics, of which Wegman was a co-author, was not the Wegman Report. It was retracted because a "committee did find that plagiarism occurred in contextual sections of the article." No fault was found in its analysis or conclusions.

@Veritatem2021 @AristotleMrs Only someone foolish enough to swallow ThinkProgress disinformation would believe that the Wegman Report was wrong.

GMU Provost Peter Stearns reported the investigating committee's findings w/r/t the complaints against the Wegman Report:

"no scientific misconduct was involved"

@Veritatem2021 @AristotleMrs Here's the Wegman Report:

@Veritatem2021 @AristotleMrs There is no credible evidence that anthropogenic climate change is harmful. Politicians and Climate Industry grifters call global warming a "crisis," but scientists call the periods of warmest climate "climate optimums."
