Jane Lubchenco is the Biden administration official in charge of scientific integrity. She was recently sanctioned by the National Academy of Sciences for her poor integrity.
“A NAS spokesperson confirmed that the decision is related to last year’s retraction of a paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Before joining OSTP, Lubchenco edited a paper that was retracted from the journal PNAS in October 2021 because the data underlying the analysis was not the latest available, and because she has a personal relationship with one of the authors (her brother-in-law).
Lubchenco, while at the White House, has been spearheading work to develop scientific integrity policies across government agencies.”
White House climate official sanctioned by key science body
It is interesting that she was sanctioned for a few specific actions rather than the massive fraud she is perpetrating on the American people. In 2009, during Biden’s first year in the White House, she published this document predicting an increase in 90 degree days in the US due to the burning of fossil fuels.
She chose to ignore all the data before 1961.
“The number of days with high temperatures above 90°F is projected to increase throughout the country as illustrated in the maps on the left. Parts of the South that currently have about 60 days per year with temperatures over 90°F are projected to experience 150 or more days a year above 90°F by the end of this century, under a higher emissions scenario”

The frequency of 90 degree days across the country and the south plummeted from the 1930s to the 1960s.
Even if you ignore all the data before 1961, there still isn’t an upwards trend.
She is involved in much more serious fraud than what she was sanctioned for, but the powers that be seem to think that is fine.
