The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is refusing to comply with a subpoena from Representative Lamar Smith regarding a study that claimed there has been no 15-year pause in global warming. NOAA cites "scientific integrity" and confidentiality, while skeptics argue the agency is hiding data that contradicts the narrative of continuous heating.
