Kagan Didn’t Read Climate Screed She Wrote A Forward For

So, a justice on the Supreme Court of the United States Of America didn’t bother to read what she was advocating? Is this an attempt to keep from being recused, as Skeptics want to happen?

Kagan says she didn’t read disputed climate chapter she endorsed

Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan is distancing herself from a climate science reference for judges that is making waves in an upcoming case.

Conservative groups have called for a probe of whether Kagan — a member of the high court’s liberal wing — violated ethics rules by not stepping back from a legal fight by local governments trying to get the oil industry to pay up for the impacts of climate change. The high-stakes legal battle has the potential to cost energy producers billions of dollars.

During a congressional hearing Tuesday on the Supreme Court’s budget, Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins (R-Maine) asked Kagan about the controversy.

It stems from the foreword the Kagan wrote to a judicial reference manual that contained a chapter on climate science. That chapter has since been withdrawn.

“I hadn’t read the chapter in question prior to that time. Actually, I still haven’t read it,” Kagan said.

Yet, she wrote the forward? Does anyone believe this? Or, did the climate cultists just write it for her with her approval?

Steve Milloy, who signed the letter, said Tuesday that he didn’t accept the explanation Kagan gave to Collins.

“I’m a lawyer, she’s a lawyer, and as a lawyer, you don’t get to sign and endorse things you don’t know anything about,” said Milloy, a former Trump transition adviser who disputes consensus climate science.

He said he didn’t know whether Roberts should step back from the climate case, given his role in the Federal Judicial Center, and noted that Kagan was the one who gave her blessing to the climate chapter.

She knows what it was about, and has long endorsed lawfare, including climalaware.
