[quote=@POOHEAD189] So we now have some good evidence of [url=https://talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/house-intel-glenn-simpson-fusion-gps-interview]Trump Money Laundering[/url] and 2017 was one of the [url=http://mashable.com/2018/01/18/earth-top-3-warmest-year-2017-global-warming/#XsEUg8KxLqqO]top 3 hottest years ever recorded[/url]. [/quote] It's just more attempts to directly tie Trump with the Russian Conspiracy, and the guy that claims this, is the very guy who made the dossier which Hillary Clinton paid for. Which included a story about pissing on prostitutes... Can't say I'm anything but skeptical of that man's word. They have claimed that for global warming literally every consecutive year now. And they were wrong each time. 2015 was debunked. http://www.climatedepot.com/2015/01/16/scientists-balk-at-hottest-year-claims-we-are-arguing-over-the-significance-of-hundredths-of-a-degree-the-pause-continues/ 2016 was debunked. https://wattsupwiththat.com/2017/01/19/noaa-data-demonstrates-that-2016-was-not-the-hottest-year-ever-in-the-usa/ And in that very article it states "putting it behind 2016 and 2015 in that agency's database." Implying it's the third hottest year behind those two years which is false data/statics. And now I'm seeing people trying to argue that it's the "second" on google. So I'll wait for more information to come out for this one, but... https://science.house.gov/news/press-releases/former-noaa-scientist-confirms-colleagues-manipulated-climate-records https://climatechangedispatch.com/u-s-congress-to-investigate-noaa-scandal-as-more-whistleblowers-come-forward/ Whether true or not, the NOAA, which is always consistently used by the left. Has been accused many times, including by former employee's of manipulating data, why they'd do this is obvious. Edit: Also just to stick my foot into the "global warming" idea, let's be honest what you have to believe to be apart of that movement. The whole thing is CO2 is the major (and basically) only factor that predicts climate change and it's predominantly or completely man made. And giving the government more power is the only way to combat the problem. (so one side is promising to change/solve the problem of weather...)

So if the earth is "warming" but it's caused by natural causes. Nothing can actually be done about it. Which means no more millions/billions of funding being wasted on vanity projects. https://forums.tesla.com/forum/forums/100-reasons-why-climate-change-natural-and-not-manmade
