This just in: it gets hot during the summer. Sometimes, it鈥檚 even hotter than average. It鈥檚 a truly stunning revelation, and we should all be grateful to far-left Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Seattle) for her meteorological expertise.

Jayapal posted an image of a weather map of the U.S. showing temperatures like Seattle at 71 degrees, San Francisco at 66 degrees, Detroit at 81 degrees, and New York at 92 degrees. This is standard summer weather.

But to Jayapal, this is 鈥渃limate change.鈥

A balmy 71 degrees in Seattle is climate change?

The Squad grandmother shared her profound insight on X, where she (or the staff ) spends all day in lieu of governing.

One expects a certain level of hyperbole from politicians, but she does this daily on all topics, leaving reasonable people to believe she’s simply lazy and unhinged. A cursory glance at the very map she posted reveals a reality that contradicts her alarmist proclamation. While Boston and New York were bracing for a heat wave, with temperatures slightly above normal, Jayapal鈥檚 own backyard was enjoying a perfectly pleasant day.

The forecast high for Seattle? A balmy 71 degrees 鈥 one degree below normal for this time of year. Portland was 3 degrees below normal. San Francisco was a chilly 7 degrees below. Both Las Vegas and Phoenix, traditionally scorching, is still hot but 2 and 1 degrees below normal, respectively.

Is unseasonably cool and pleasant summer weather also definitive proof of the “existential threat” of climate change, according to Jayapal? It鈥檚 a bold message, you have to give her that. It鈥檚 also profoundly silly.

Unserious member of congress reminder us she’s… unserious

Jayapal鈥檚 tweet is not a serious contribution to the climate debate. Nothing she does adds value to any issues. It’s another desperate, almost comically inept attempt to score political points by exploiting public anxiety.

She saw a map with scary red colors on the East Coast and immediately used it to virtue signal, without bothering to check the data for her own constituents. To the Radical Left, any weather, anywhere, can be used as a political cudgel, regardless of what the facts say. If it’s hot, it’s climate change. If it’s cold, it’s also climate change. If there鈥檚 a flood or a drought, you guessed it, climate change. If it’s nice out? She just won’t say anything.

This isn鈥檛 about science; it鈥檚 about narrative.

Tuning out Pramila Jayapal and climate extremists

For Jayapal and the activist wing of the Democratic Party, every weather report must be filtered through a pre-approved ideological lens that is aimed at promoting policies that are tailored to dismantle our energy policy and capitalism.

There is no room for nuance, no acknowledgment of complex weather patterns, and certainly no mention of data points that undermine the doomsday narrative. As someone who considers himself a real environmentalist, someone who cares about the environment without needing to lead into hysterics, Jayapal’s kind of lazy, divisive posting is maddening because it’s counterproductive. Jayapal and her ilk treat the public like fools, assuming no one will actually look at the evidence they present.

If Congresswoman Jayapal genuinely believes a 71-degree day in Seattle is a sign of a climate emergency, she鈥檚 not fit to legislate on the issue. And, frankly, she might get people to hope for more climate change. If, as it’s more likely, she鈥檚 just cynically using a weather map she didn鈥檛 understand to push an agenda, it鈥檚 a perfect example of why so many people are tuning out the constant, breathless warnings.
