Biden’s Massive Climate Bill

Yesterday afternoon, Joe Biden signed his latest massive $740 billion spending bill into law. Officially, it’s called the Inflation Reduction Act. But even Bernie Sanders and Joe Manchin admit it does virtually nothing to reduce inflation. 

 

Indeed, most media outlets confirm it doesn’t address inflation because they’re calling it a “healthcare bill,” or a “tax bill” or a “climate bill” or all three – anything but an inflation reduction bill.

 

But while liberals are celebrating this “climate bill,” climate change is at the bottom of the list of issues voters are most concerned about. In the latest Gallup survey, climate change didn’t even make the top ten! It registered at just 3%.

 

How’s that for progressive priorities?

 

Speaking of progressive priorities, as we have noted before, this bill also doubles the size of the IRS with an additional $80 billion. That’s not $80 billion for our national defense, but $80 billion for additional IRS agents. Not Border Patrol agents to stop illegal immigration or to put more cops on the street, but tens of thousands of additional IRS enforcers to harass you.

 

Meanwhile, I couldn’t help but notice that when Joe Biden walked into the room to sign the bill, he came in with a mask on. Fair enough. First Lady Jill Biden had just been diagnosed with COVID. 

 

But Biden then took his mask off and proceeded to cough into his hand. Then, he used multiple pens to sign the legislation which he then handed to other elderly politicians in the room. 

 

It sure looked like a super-spreader event to me!
