We already know that this White House doesn’t believe in climate change. And just days ago Donald Trump said, “the United States right now has among the cleanest climates,” But now comes this report from The Washington Post:

“White House officials barred a State Department intelligence agency from submitting written testimony this week to the House Intelligence Committee warning that human-caused climate change could be “possibly catastrophic” after State officials refused to excise the document’s references to the scientific consensus on climate change.“

The newspaper adds:

“Trump officials sought to cut several pages of the document on the grounds that its description of climate science did not mesh with the administration’s official stance.”

It is worth noting that the testimony was on behalf of an intelligence agency, as opposed to just by a single individual. And that bureau, when asked by the WH to cut all of the climate science it cited, declined to do it. https://t.co/t3u5wkPBGb
