President Trump orders investigation into National Academy of Sciences over climate science manual for judges.
President Trump announced via Truth Social that he has ordered Federal Suspension and Debarment Officials to review the conduct of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) regarding a 'Reference Manual on Scientific Evidence' used to advise federal judges. The manual's climate science section, co-produced with the Federal Judicial Center, was retracted earlier in 2026 after Republican officials criticized its authors' ties to climate activism. Trump characterized the manuals as 'fraudulent' and 'biased,' stating they influenced judges in climate litigation cases.
