We debrief the seismic shifts in Wisconsin politics reflected in this week's primary election, which saw a 40 year turnout high, and perhaps a permanent shift in the balance of power in the Wisconsin GOP. On the Democratic side, progressives continued to gain ground in primaries (including democratic socialists, and U.S. Senate nominee Mandela Barnes became a great hope for staving off a red wave in Wisconsin and nationally in 2022. Does Wisconsin hold the key to saving American democracy? At the same time, the Inflation Reduction Act, the historically bold climate, health care, and tax reform bill expected cleared the Senate Sunday and is expected to pass the House on Friday. It reflects Democrats making the most progress in 50 years possible given the current composition of Congress (with some very unfortunate but necessary concessions to Senators Manchin and Sinema).

Whiplash, anyone? After many months of intense negotiations and more than one derailment, the U.S. Senate recently passed the largest legislative investment in climate action in U.S. history.The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 contains an enormous amount of spending for climate protection and clean energy — $369 billion over 10 years — and is expected to put the country on a path to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent by 2030. But it's not all good news for everyone. In order to get the support of Democratic Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, the final bill made significant cuts to the Democrats' initial budget reconciliation plan, plus some other compromises. Political Climate hosts Julia Pyper, Shane Skelton and Brandon Hurlbut discuss how climate and clean energy provisions survived the reconciliation bill roller coaster and the impact of key elements of the Inflation Reduction Act.Listen and subscribe to Political Climate on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Amazon Music or pretty much wherever you get podcasts!

THE THESIS: The members of the Mockbingbird Media are not just corrupt in their astounding bias, they live in self-perpetuating panic tanks. The 20 block region that houses the American media powerhouses is also largely un-churched (just as is Silicon Valley and Hollywood). As such, these people are often alone, without God's voice, with the Holy Spirit or faith in Jesus. They are susceptible to panic and seek saviours in three-letter organizations.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 5:6-7  Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you THE NEWS & COMMENT: NPR Reporter Upset by Republicans 'Shunning Mainstream Press' for Their Liberal Bias Reuters: 'Washington DC Lightning Strike that Killed Three Offers Climate Warning' Reuter's reporter Gloria Dickie then goes into the details of how this tragedy is indicative of climate change starting with the very first sentence of her story: Scientists say that climate change is increasing the likelihood of lightning strikes across the United States, after lightning struck at a square near the White House, leaving three people dead and one other in critical condition. The hot, humid conditions in Washington, D.C., on Thursday were primed for electricity. Air temperatures topped out at 94 degrees Fahrenheit (34 degrees Celsius) – or 5F (3C) higher than the 30-year normal maximum temperature for Aug. 4, according to the National Weather Service. More heat can draw more moisture into the atmosphere, while also encouraging rapid updraft – two key factors for charged particles, which lead to lightning. A key study released in 2014 in the journal Science warned that the number of lightning strikes could increase by 50% in this century in the United States, with each 1 C (1.8 F) of warming translating into a 12% rise in the number of lightning strikes. [AUDIO] - CBS Sunday Morning Frets 'Human Extinction' from 'Climate Change' [AUDIO - PAUSE] - Absurd MSNBC: Racist, Transphobic, Flat-Earth Pro-Lifers Want To Criminalize Miscarriage The NYT ask a puposefully idiotic question: “Why Do We Talk About Miscarriage Differently From Abortion?” The line between abortion and pregnancy loss has always been blurry. But over the past few decades, the anti-abortion movement has forged a cultural bright line between the two experiences, promoting dueling narratives of “bad” mothers who voluntarily cause fetal death versus “good” mothers who grieve unpreventable pregnancy loss. These narratives are often steeped in harmful stereotypes: Black and poor women are often blamed or even prosecuted when they miscarry, while white women with economic means are assumed victims of a bodily process outside of their control. She was jailed for losing a pregnancy. Her nightmare could become more common On 4 November 2019, TV stations across California blasted Chelsea Becker's photo on their news editions. The “search was on” for a “troubled” 25-year-old woman wanted for the “murder of her unborn baby”, news anchors said, warning viewers not to approach if they spotted her but to call the authorities. The next day, Becker was asleep at the home she was staying in when officers with the Hanford police department arrived.   “The officer had a large automatic weapon pointed at me and a K-9 [dog],” Becker, now 28, recalled in a recent interview. “I walked out and surrendered.” Two months before, Becker had had a stillbirth at a California hospital, losing a baby boy at eight months pregnant. The Kings county prosecutor in the central valley charged her with “murder of a human fetus”, alleging she had acted with “malice” because she had been struggling with drug addiction and the hospital reported meth in her system. Becker's attorneys argued there was no evidence that substance use caused the stillbirth and California law did not allow for this type of prosecution in the first place. Still, she spent 16 months in jail awaiting trial before a judge dismissed the charges. Becker was prosecuted by the Kings county district attorney, Keith Fagundes, the only prosecutor in California who has filed charges for a stillbirth in the last three decades. The year before, Fagundes had also filed a murder case against Adora Perez, after she delivered a stillborn baby at the same hospital in Hanford and police also alleged that meth use had caused the loss.

Joe Manchin's tax-and-spending deal with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. The Journal opinion pages have tried to fill that gaping coverage hole, and my choice for its worst three provisions are: drug price controls that will erode innovation and slow future cures; climate subsidies and language that will distort energy investment and liberate regulators to crush fossil fuels; and the tax increases on companies, including the new stock buyback levy that Sen. Kyrsten Sinema agreed to in return for altering the new book income tax that would have punished manufacturers in particular. But please don't forget the $80 billion in new funding for 87,000 new Internal Revenue Service employees.

En CNN tienen la última hora.📜 Manchin dice síPor Emilio DoménechLo importante: el Senado estadounidense aprobó este domingo un paquete legislativo que incluye medidas contra el cambio climático y contra los precios elevados de algunos medicamentos, además de subir los impuestos a las grandes corporaciones.Y nada hubiera sido posible sin el sí de la persona que encabeza estos párrafos: el senador demócrata Joe Manchin del que tanto os hemos hablado en estos últimos dos años.Contexto: el Senado estadounidense está dividido de forma simétrica. 50 senadores demócratas contra 50 senadores republicanos. La vicepresidenta demócrata Kamala Harris deshace los empates.En la cámara alta, la mayoría de los proyectos legislativos requieren 60 votos para evitar el llamado filibuster, del que te hablamos aquí.Pero hay una vía alternativa para aprobar leyes con 50 votos (y el desempate) que solo se presenta en una ocasión de forma anual: la reconciliación presupuestaria, de la que te hablamos aquí.En 2021, los demócratas usaron su leve mayoría en el Senado para aprobar por reconciliación el American Rescue Plan, un paquete de medidas sociales en el contexto de la crisis económica generada por la pandemia.Pero los demócratas seguían teniendo la posibilidad de aprobar otro vehículo legislativo de reconciliación para el siguiente año fiscal.Es por ello que los demócratas llevan más de un año negociando un paquete que aprobar de forma unilateral, sin apoyo republicano, aprovechando la reconciliación presupuestaria.Explícamelo: en principio, el nuevo paquete de reconciliación debía incluir más de 2.2 billones de dólares en lucha contra el cambio climático y medidas sociales como guardería gratuita universal y créditos fiscales para familias con niños, entre otras preferencias progresistas.Pero senadores demócratas moderados como Manchin y Kyrsten Sinema se opusieron al paquete por diferentes motivos.Manchin, porque tenía preocupaciones en torno al gasto o sobre lo que pretendía hacer la ley contra industrias como la farmacéutica o la de los combustibles fósiles, en la que tiene intereses directos.Y Sinema, porque el paquete subía demasiados impuestos.¿Y ahora? El paquete de reconciliación aprobado este domingo es una versión muy reducida de lo que los demócratas aspiraban a lograr hace apenas un año.El paquete solo incluye 437.000 millones de dólares en nuevos gastos a lo largo de la próxima década.El total, por si ves el número por ahí, es de 740.000 millones porque también amplía ayudas que ya existían para hacer más asequibles los seguros médicos, por ejemplo.Las medidas sociales se han descartado por completo y las sanitarias se han reducido de forma contundente, principalmente por oposición republicana.Pero aquellas dedicadas a la lucha contra el cambio climático convierten al paquete de reconciliación en la mayor inversión legislativa de la historia de Estados Unidos en ese frente.¿Y la inflación? No te fíes mucho de lo que lees. Que los demócratas hayan llamado Ley de Reducción de la Inflación a este paquete es puro postureo.La mayoría de analistas comparten que su efecto en los precios será, cuanto más, moderado. Y más en el largo plazo que en el corto.Que los demócratas puedan usar esta victoria legislativa para mejorar sus opciones de cara a noviembre, especialmente en lo que refiere a la cámara baja, es poco probable.Este logro senatorial solo es el último de unos cuantos que se ha anotado el líder demócrata Chuck Schumer en las últimas semanas.Entre ellos: las ayudas a semiconductores e investigación y desarrollo, la primera ley de control de armas en varias décadas y una inyección de recursos para veteranos de guerra enfermos.Que les dé para mantener el control del Senado dos años más y hacerle la vida mucho más fácil a Joe Biden dependerá de lo bien que trabajen el mensaje en estos últimos coletazos de campaña.Más información en Bloomberg.✋ Un nuevo parónLo importante: un proyecto de ley antimonopolio principalmente dirigido contra las grandes compañías tecnológicas de Estados Unidos volvió a sufrir un frenazo en el calendario legislativo conforme congresistas y senadores inician sus vacaciones estivales.El objetivo es votar por ella en otoño, pero las presiones del lobby tech y la cercanía con las elecciones de medio mandato hacen peligrar su aprobación.Explícamelo: la ley pretende prohibir que las grandes plataformas online como el buscador de Google, la App Store de Apple o el mercado de Amazon den trato preferencial a sus productos y servicios.Los críticos con las Big Tech llevan años denunciando las prácticas monopolistas de compañías como Amazon.Otras, como Apple, han acabado en los juzgados, aunque anotándose victorias importantes para su futuro. Lo expliqué aquí.¿Y ahora? Los demócratas dicen tener suficientes apoyos republicanos como para aprobar la ley de forma bipartidista en cualquier momento.Pero: esperar más de la cuenta podría enterrar cualquier posibilidad porque los republicanos tienen previsto recuperar el control de la Cámara de Representantes —y sus líderes probablemente no estén por la labor de añadirla al calendario legislativo.Más información en The Wall Street Journal.☪️ Miedo entre musulmanesLo importante: Nuevo Mexico aumentará la presencia policial en el estado después de que cuatro hombres musulmanes hayan sido asesinados por herida de bala en los últimos meses.Tres de los asesinatos se han producido en las últimas dos semanas en la mayor ciudad del estado, Albuquerque.Explícamelo: las autoridades policiales creen que los cuatro homicidios podrían estar conectados. También han lanzado una alerta sobre un vehículo posiblemente vinculado a los crímenes.La edad de los hombres asesinados va desde los 25 a los 62. Todos eran musulmanes, tenían orígenes en países del Sudeste Asiático como Pakistán y residían en Nuevo Mexico.Todavía se desconoce si los asesinatos son crímenes de odio.¿Y ahora? El miedo se ha extendido entre la comunidad musulmana en el estado, según representantes de la misma que han hablado con medios como CNN y The New York Times.Negocios y familias están estableciendo toques de queda propios a la espera de que capturen al posible culpable.Más información en The Albuquerque Journal.🌏 Monitor global🇺🇸 Trump le preguntó a un ayudante por qué sus generales no podían ser como los de Hitler, según un libroThe New York Times (en inglés; 9 minutos)🇨🇳 China aprovecha la visita de Pelosi para establecer una "nueva normalidad" para TaiwánBloomberg (en inglés; 5 minutos)🇺🇦 La jefa de Amnistía Internacional en Ucrania dimite tras un informe que criticaba a KyivThe Washington Post (en inglés; 10 minutos)🇷🇺 Rusia y Ucrania juegan con fuego en la central nuclear de ZaporiyiaEl Mundo (en español; 5 minutos)👾 En el DiscordUn retazo de Maricopa Land@Mapashita comparte un buen meme titaniesco:En otro orden de cosas, este martes vuelven los streams con una sesión doble de Lunes por el mundo y Martes en D.C. para poneros al día de las últimas novedades en los frentes geopolíticos globales, como Israel o Taiwán, y también en los últimos avances legislativos antes del parón estival, como el pedazo de tramo final de sesión senatorial que se ha marcado Schumer este verano.Y sobre mí, por fin aterrizo en Alcoy después de unas semanas de mucho ajetreo vacacional.

Following nearly a year of negotiations among Congressional Democrats and the White House, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) passed in the U.S. Senate this afternoon by a vote of 50 to 50 with the Vice President breaking the tie. It will now move to the House where Speaker Pelosi has announced it will be considered on Friday, August 12th. The package was initially proposed as the Build Back Better Act, with the original proposal passing in the House of Representatives on November 19, 2021. However, Democrats hit roadblocks to passing the bill in the Senate. Senators Manchin (D-WV) and Sinema (D-AZ) expressed concerns regarding the size and costs of the package, especially considering rising inflation. After months of negotiations between Majority Leader Schumer and Senator Manchin, a deal was reached to reduce the federal deficit, reform prescription drug pricing, extend the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Advanced Premium Tax Credit (APTC) subsidies for three years, make several tax reform changes, and invest in energy and climate change. The Manchin-Schumer deal was further modified to gain the support of Senator Sinema. None of the changes implemented to gain her vote impacted the health care provisions.

The Biden administration secures a huge legislative victory after the Senate passes the $750 billion health care, tax and climate bill. Far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is paying the price for spewing lies about the Sandy Hook massacre. And Mehdi provides his take on the latest violence in Gaza.

On tonight's broadcast: The job market is hot, with employers adding twice the number of jobs predicted for July. Senator Kyrsten Sinema signed off on Democratic legislation that would provide new spending to mitigate climate change and extend health care access while taxing corporations. China's military escalation is high with fronts on air, sea, land, the cyber sphere, and space.

A jury decided that ring-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones should pay the parents of a Sandy Hook victim $45.2 million in punitive damages, a day after the jury awarded the parents $4.1 in compensatory damages. Plaintiffs Scarlett Lewis and Neil Heslin lost their son Jesse in the 2012 school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut where 20 children and six adults were killed. They were seeking $150 million. CNN Senior Investigation Correspondent Drew Griffin joins AC360 to break down the jury's decision. Plus, Senate Democrats are planning to begin debate on the economic bill after Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema said she would “move forward” on the package. Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar tells AC360 what's in the bill for Americans who may be skeptical. To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

John talks about President Biden who signed an executive order aimed at making travel to terminate a pregnancy easier for those in need. The order also allows states with legal abortion access to get Medicaid wavers to help out of state people seeking the procedure. He takes calls from Linda in Kansas, Robin in Arizona, and Cheryl in Michigan. Next, John rants on Kyrsten Sinema's fickleness over the Schumer/ Manchin Climate Bill. Then he interviews Amy Littlefield of The Nation magazine on the Kansas abortion vote and reproductive rights in the states heading into the midterms. Finally John talks with Douglas in Chicago on polling, and Mitch from Kent State once again brings his musical expertise and insight to the show.

It's Casual Friday! Emma hosts Ryan Cooper, managing editor at The American Prospect, to round up the week in news. Emma first discusses Sinema's role at the front and center of Biden's agenda, finally agreeing to the Manchin-Schumer “Inflation Reduction Act” provided they eliminate their carried interest tweaks, before also covering the booming employment rate, charges being brought against the officers involved in the coverup of Breonna Taylor's murder, and China's initiation of sanctions against Pelosi. Then, Ryan Cooper joins as he and Emma dive deep into an extended conversation on Sinema's role in the IRA-2022, covering the beautiful bate and switch by Chuck Schumer (almost like he's been a senator as long as I've been alive!) and Joe Manchin, getting the CHIPS act passed along the way, and forcing the GOP into digging their own grave by trying to put a stop to veteran victims of burn pits getting healthcare. Expanding on this, Cooper explores McConnell's behind-the-scenes freak-out regarding the legislative rug that was once under his feet but is no longer, before turning to the role of figures like John Stewart in putting the burn pit story front and center, and getting even organizations like Newsmax to put the GOP on the spot, particularly as the fight for abortion already had their feet held up to the fire. This brings them to the topic of the midterms, as they cover the importance of candidates like Fetterman especially as the GOP, even in the most purple of states, continues to advance their fascistic agenda of minoritarian and theocratic rule, before they wrap up the interview by tackling the tensions behind Pelosi's visit to China, and the future of American liberals' imperialist war hawkery. And in the Fun Half: Emma and the crew cover Crowder's coping with conservative cognitive dissonance (the only solution being, of course, to retreat to your prior convictions), Tucker's embarrassing attempt at taking on Jon Stewart, and Stewart's lovely response that reflects the intimacy of their relationship. They also discuss Dick Cheney passing the baton of “greatest threat to the American republic” to Donald Trump, Fox's continued infatuation with AOC, and Victor Orbán, notorious covid authoritarian, appears at CPAC to call for fewer drag queens and more Chuck Norrises.

On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, Arizona Democrat Senator Kyrsten Sinema caved. She's joined Joe Manchin and Chuck Schumer to help Joe Biden pass a 9-figure Build Back Better-lite called the Inflation Reduction Act, which reportedly won't reduce inflation and may make it worse. Speaking of inflation, food lines in America are getting longer under Biden as pet owners are abandoning their furry friends at alarming rates because cost are sky high. Then, Biden ends another week as virtual President and tested positive for COVID again. Plus, FBI Director Chris Wray warns of potential terror attacks from Afghanistan after Biden's botched withdrawal and the dangers of our open border. Finally, WNBA Star Brittney Griner was sentenced to 9 years in a Russian prison on drug charges and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has sidelined a George Soros-backed  State's Attorney. Our guest today is John Hayward, Breitbart News National Security Deputy Editor. John unloads on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan and details China's attention seeking response. He also highlights the potential danger of a Chinese food manufacturing company that has bought 300 acres of land in North Dakota - just 20 minutes from the Grand Forks Air Force Base.

New Jobs Report — The July unemployment report drops at 8:30 a.m. The economy added 372,000 jobs in June, and economists are predicting a gain of 250,000 jobs for July. Yesterday, the White House called the anticipated drop an expected “transition” from “record-high-breaking jobs numbers” to “stable and steady growth.”   Sinema on Board — Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer reached a deal last night to secure her vote for the reconciliation bill. In the end, she wasn't hard to get. Democrats wanted to raise $14 billion by narrowing the carried interest loophole. Sinema wanted the provision removed. Instead, Burgess Everett and Marianne Levine report, Democrats added “a new 1 percent excise tax on stock buybacks that will bring in $73 billion, far more than the $14 billion raised by the carried interest provision, according to a Democrat familiar with the deal.” What else she got: “The deal with Sinema also adds roughly $5 billion in drought resiliency to the bill, according to another person familiar, and changes portions of the corporate minimum tax structure to remove accelerated depreciation of investments from the agreement. That depreciation-related change will cost about $40 billion. All told, the agreement with Sinema is expected to increase the bill's original $300 billion deficit reduction figure.” Listen to Playbook Deep Dive: Biden's big bill: Two GOP strategists on how to kill it Raghu Manavalan is the Host of POLITICO's Playbook.
