Man, This Rabbit Hole Just Keeps Going . . .

As if I needed any more sources of information to check.

Apparently a scandal has been going on under the radar. You never heard about this because it does not fit the "the earth has a fever" narrative preferred by the press. Several of the few satellites the US government has in space looking down at us to see how we are doing, are gimps. Specifically, some of the ones that give us global warming data have faulty sensors. You've heard that the temperature of the planet is supposed to have increased 0.6ºC (+/- 0.5ºC) over the past however long? Yeah, that was based in part on data from a satellite that says every once in a while that the temperature rises to (e.g.) 604ºC at Egg Harbor, Wisconsin.

That's a bit of an outlier, eh?

So the next time someone tells you that the satellite data says "zOMG Global Warming!!!1!" you can tell them "yeah . . . not so much." The next time your Elected Heroes try to raise your taxes to save you from your own carbon dioxide emissions, you can tell them to go to . . .

The title of this post is in regards to the fact that there are at least a dozen links on this page that are worth following, and then the places where the links lead are worth reading on a frequent basis. It's hard enough to stay current when the MSM won't do their jobs, and now here is another list of things to pay attention to. Oh well, here we go down the rabbit hole.
