    No. The scientific community polices* itself with peer review. The rogue and stupid communities are peer reviewed out of existence. You can submit all the falsified “research” you want, but if your published results can’t be replicated, you will be labeled a quack and your “findings” will go ignored by the rest of the scientific community.

    No government-affiliated judicial body is involved in verifying science, because judges are experts in law, not science.

      Do you know how long it takes to replicate another’s studies? Sometimes that never happens.

        Are you suggesting that the United States Supreme Court weighs in on scientific studies that haven’t been replicated yet?

          No, I’m still commenting about Mio’s suggestion upthread, that “not lying about science” is a terrible #5 criterion for president.
