Now that I’m back home, I’ve been working on catch up, starting with the Kerry, Representative Massie exchange during the 4/9/19 House Oversight hearing.
I learned that Kerry's allusion to Kangaroo Court was inspired by rumors that the infamous cold-warrior William Happer has been elevated to run Trump's climate science review board or whatever it is. I’ve also found out that Kangaroo Court is an actual legal term. Check it out,
- A bogus court, the intention of which is to provide the illusion of a fair justice system where none exists. (https://legaldictionary.net/kangaroo-court/)
I’m familiar with William Harper’s long history of misrepresenting well understood climate science. He misleads by way of an amoral disregard for honesty.

If a Kangaroo Court is mission focused in complete disregard for reality, then referring to Dr. William Happer as a Kangaroo Judge is a stone sober descriptive, plain and simple.
To support this contention I offer the following collection of quotes and links from,
