Something to the effect of "ITT, we shallowly objectify other people," IIRC.

Trump Administration Issues Report That Climate Change Is Real

to add a bit of subtlety, from NYT:


"Directly contradicting much of the Trump administration’s position on climate change, 13 federal agencies unveiled an exhaustive scientific report on Friday that says humans are the dominant cause of the global temperature rise that has created the warmest period in the history of civilization."


so it's not that the WH wrote the report, it's more like they didn't block or edit what the federal agencies wrote.

It's like that Hair Club for Men guy: he's not just the President, he's a member.
