Commentary The first thing to remember about the reconciliation bill Sens. Joe Manchin and Chuck Schumer agreed to Wednesday is that, despite its utterly preposterous name, it has absolutely zero to do with inflation.

Inflation Reduction Act—or Radical Green New Deal?
Commentary Make no mistake, the so-called Inflation Reduction Act unveiled Wednesday by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) will do nothing that its supporters state—in fact, it will do quite the opposite. If passed, the act will increase the prices that Americans pay for energy, make the United States less energy secure,…

The Senate’s top Democrat is under pressure to retract his remarks promising Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh would “pay the price” after a man was arrested near Kavanaugh’s home with a gun.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on May 25 blocked legislation that proponents say could help prevent school shootings.
