It took less than a day for the political Left and most of the media to forget the name of the Inflation Reduction Act. That is, after pushing said act for weeks and after it was rebranded as a shell of Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.

There were no main headlines jumping off the front page of D.C. and New York newspapers about a historic bill to address the No. 1 current concern of the public, which is inflation. There were, however, several media outlets running with the bill’s pet spending issues right up until its passage. These were issues that the Democratic Party tried to minimize or ignore altogether.
