Paulina Mangubat, who describes herself as "Content & Creative for @TheDemocrats" on her X account, later posted: "Team just ratioed Stephen Miller, who is ugly, evil, cruel, and bald."
WASHINGTON (AP) -- In the next five years, the Earth is overwhelmingly likely to surge again and again past the international climate threshold set as safe and shatter its hottest-year record along the way, according to new United Nations climate projections. The World Meteorological Organization also forecasts an overheating Arctic that warms nearly 3 degrees Fahrenheit (1.66 degrees Celsius) between now and 2030 and a dangerous drought with potential wildfires for the Amazon, a crucial part of Earth's natural defenses to lessen human-caused climate change.
