Google has chosen the criminals at Politifact to be their Ministry of Truth about climate. Here is their latest criminal activity.
Ted Cruz made a 100% accurate statement. Satellites show no warming for over 17 years, and models are wrong.
Cruz responded, “My view actually is simple. Debates on this should follow science and should follow data. Many of the alarmists on global warming, they’ve got a problem because the science doesn’t back them up. In particular, satellite data demonstrate for the last 17 years, there’s been zero warming. None whatsoever. It’s why — you remember how it used to be called ‘global warming’ and then magically the theory changed to ‘climate change’? The reason is it wasn’t warming, but the computer models still say it is, except the satellites show it’s not.”

So how did PolitiLies respond?
Cruz’s statement contains an element of truth but ignores critical facts that would give a different impression, so we rate it Mostly False.
They presented no evidence that anything Cruz said was false, and based their judgment on the future predictions from the same people who made the original mispredictions. They use only climate alarmists as their references. That is propaganda with a pre-determined outcome, not journalism.
Their argument is based on the circular logic that the failed models from the past predict warming in the future. Using that logic, alarmists always win – as long as they continue to lie about the future.
