Capitol Report (Aug. 4): China Fires Missiles Around Taiwan; White House Declares Monkeypox a Health Emergency
President Joe Biden is urging Congress to pass what’s dubbed the Inflation Reduction Act. But Republicans argue the bill will do the exact opposite of what its name suggests. China conducted live-fire drills, launching missiles into the waters near Taiwan, and Beijing says these so-called drills will continue for at least the next few days….

Manchin-Schumer Energy Deal Proves the Power of The Swamp
Commentary Never doubt the power of The Swamp. That’s the apparent lesson to be learned from Senator Joe Manchin’s reversal on the energy-related provisions of the pending reconciliation bill.

US Government: The Corrupt Bank That Cannot Fail
Commentary Most of us barely paid attention last week when Congress, entirely under the control of one party, passed two huge pieces of legislation with a price tag of $730 billion.

The Democrats’ Lifespan Reduction Act
Commentary Across the pond, Brits are demanding their next prime minister do something to reduce the UK’s notorious cancer death rates.

Americans enjoy the highest cancer…
The Lockdowns Kicked Off This Depression
Commentary If you were on vacation last week, good for you. You missed one of Congress’s greatest-ever scams. They just approved some $750 billion (do these numbers even mean anything anymore?) to “transition” us from fossil fuels and coal over to reliance on the wind and sun, and also to subsidize a bunch of chip…
