The article title is technically correct, in that at least one of those teams will be on the "critique" side. It is also substantially correct, germane, and honest in implying with its scare quotes that this new effort is superfluous, unless it is an effort to gum up the works with climate denial.

Is US science any different to European or Japanese etc. science?
"The administrator believes that we will be able to recruit the best in the fields which study climate and will organize a specific process in which these individuals ... provide back-and-forth critique of specific new reports on climate science," the source said.
So they will recruit "the best in the fields which study climate" which basically means they will recruit a few of those "scientists" who get paid to reject climate science and put them on the "red team" or whatever, and that team will be listened to exclusively by the administration.
