Naming it the Inflation Reduction Act was false advertising

How anyone believed hundreds of billions in new spending was going to lower inflation is beyond me—but they’re not called ‘useful idiots’ for nothing.

On Sunday, the United States Senate passed what was imprudently named the Inflation Reduction Act—with Kamala Harris breaking the tie, literally snickering as she condemned America to further economic carnage, and working-class citizens to utter financial strangulation.

SNIP

Interesting to note is that the mockingbird media—nothing more than a propaganda machine at the behest of the Democrat-Marxists driving the country into the ground—referred to the bill as the Inflation Reduction Act, but only until it passed. Now the headlines read:

1. Senate passes $739bn healthcare and climate bill after months of wrangling

2. Senate passes Democrats’ sweeping health care and climate bill

3. U.S. Senate approves bill to fight climate change, cut drug costs in win for Biden

4. Senate Democrats passed an election-year economic bill package focused on climate, taxes and health care with a tie-breaking vote from Vice President Kamala Harris.

Talk about pointing out the obvious.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that the Lying Left will label their efforts with lying titles and labels.

The Lying Left lies. It's what they do.

I’ll say a prayer. Thanks for filling the void.

$800 million? I wish. Try $800 billion. Oh well, what are a few orders of magnitude where government spending is concerned?

Lol, that sure made me smile!

Don’t you wish we could get rid of the pork in all these bills? Why does our Congress hate American taxpayers so much? Every one of them ought to be ashamed, and yet, they are so proud of themselves.
