Ahead of the July Fourth holiday during the eastern heat dome, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene posted on X deriding Mayor Mamdani's plea for New Yorkers to turn up thermostats to 78°: "American energy should be so strong and plentiful that you never have to set it above 70 if you don't feel like it." (Per Inside Climate News.) No mention of climate change; frames unlimited AC use as an energy-abundance entitlement.

Analysis notes

Supplemental GOP framing (non-core). Conservation backlash during grid emergency.
