Here are what climate scientists do
1. gather data sample from ice core, rock, ect...
2. perform statistical analysis on gathered data.
3. use the result to construct model that hopefully can predict future climate.

And could you please tell me what a 'statistician' actually has in common with a real scientist? Stats can show whatever we want, it doesnt take some magician like Wegman to make global warming disapear..please, do us a favour, listen to the real scientists

I think you're overstating the conclusion.
Wegman is critiquing the conclusions by mostly Mann that the 1990's are the hottest decade on record and that 1998 is the hottest year on record.
Sounds like he has some valid criticisms. That doesn't make all climate scientists "statistic-illiterate" nor does it invalidate the whole field of research which many in the current administration would like to do...
