As portions of the country are baking in record-setting heat, a Democratic lawmaker is seeking to capitalize on the moment to call for a national climate emergency.
The southern United States is facing its third week of extreme heat with several states seeing prolonged periods of temperatures in the triple digits.
And on Monday, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), a member of the so-called “Squad,” tried to the emphasize heat wave and blame it on Climate Change by arguing it has been a long, long time since the world has seen this kind of heat.
But her tweet’s example was odd.
“The earth just broke the record for the hottest day in 120,000 years. In fact, we broke in on three separate days,” Omar wrote.
She added, “National climate emergency now.”
The oldest man in the Bible, Methuselah, lived 969 years. So we’re talking about roughly 124 Methuselah life spans here with Omar’s tweet.
A note was added to her tweet that stated, “The source for this claim appears to be the University of Maine Climate Reanalyzer which has added a recent notice making it clear that it should not be taken as official observation records.”
It did not take long for conservatives to mock Omar for her tweet.
