New rule: Lamar Smith's committee shall henceforth be known as the Pseudoscience Corner

The Pseudoscience Corner is the house committee formerly known as the House Science, Space and Technology Committee.

If you see this committee named in an article, please change it to the "Pseudoscience Corner" when posting it here. When was the last scientific thing they did anyway? What a joke. I think Democrats on this committee should actually agree here.

Here's an example of this change in action:

The chairman of the Pseudoscience Corner is asking Americans to trust the information they get from the President over the news produced by the media.

Republican Rep. Lamar Smith saluted President Donald Trump from the floor of the House on Tuesday evening, rattling off his first-week accomplishments but saying Trump is not getting the press coverage he deserves.

"The national liberal media won't print that, or air it or post it," Smith said. "Better to get your news directly from the President. In fact, it might be the only way to get the unvarnished truth."
