Is Modern Environmentalism a Pagan Religion? By Stephen Moore
The great Rush Limbaugh used to say that "the modern environmentalists worship the created, not the creator." I was reminded of that after listening to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi once President Joe Biden signed the fiscally unconscionable $750 billion tax-and-spend Inflation Reduction Act, which gives another $369 billion to the climate change-industrial complex.

The Gubernatorial Races: Look to the West By Kyle Kondik
The most question marks about 2022 lie west of the Mississippi; rating changes in MD, NY, OR.
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— The 5 governorships we see as Toss-ups are all located west of the eastern time zone: Arizona, Kansas, Nevada, Wisconsin, and — now — Oregon.
— The large number of incumbents running this year may limit the number of governorships that change hands.
— Democrats continue to have the 2 clearest pickups, the open seats in Maryland and Massachusetts. However, Democrats also are defending 4 of the 5 Toss-ups.

Secretary of State Races: Election Deniers Carry GOP Banner in Several Key States By Louis Jacobson
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— With most primaries now complete, a majority of the nation’s competitive secretary of state races pit a Republican nominee aligned with former President Donald Trump against a relatively mainstream Democrat.
— This could benefit Democrats by being able to run against less electable Republicans — or it may not matter if a Republican wave crests high enough, carrying even the most controversial Republican nominees to victory. Either way, voters in many states will face a stark choice about how elections are run in the future.
— Looking at this year’s 27 secretary of state races, we find 10 that appear to be competitive between the parties, at least for now. In another 10 races, the GOP is in the driver’s seat, while in another 7 races, the Democrats have a significant edge.

Monkeypox: The Real ‘Don’t Say Gay’ By Brian C. Joondeph
Several months ago, Florida was accused of passing the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, as named by the corporate media. It is actually called the “Parental Rights in Education” law and does not even contain the word “gay.” The law was passed by the Florida legislature and signed into law by Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Biden Puts IRS Funding Ahead of Military and Border Security By Stephen Moore
Everyone should be deeply troubled by the recent report that the Army is on pace to miss its recruiting goal by dozens of thousands of troops and by the report that followed a few days later, alleging that the Border Patrol is running short of agents in Arizona and Texas. The border is so porous these days that even mayors of sanctuary cities are starting to complain about illegal immigration.

Reassessing the Race for the Senate By Kyle Kondik
GOP challengers mirror Trump in lack of experience; for Democrats, experience means a record.
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— In an election where Republicans are banking on the environment while Democrats are banking on differences in candidate quality, Republicans are relying on a very inexperienced group of candidates.
— Compared to 2014, the last time Republicans flipped the Senate, the party’s non-incumbent candidates are incredibly green.
— Democrats, meanwhile, are running a number of incumbents and current officeholders in competitive races, although holding office, in many instances, comes with a voting record that opponents can exploit.
— The quality of candidates on the Republican side is such an issue that we think the race for the Senate majority is basically a Toss-up.

The Dems' New Proposal Does Nothing To Lower Inflation by Stephen Moore
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. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 is crammed with the very same spending, corporate welfare, price fixing and tax hikes that were part of Build Back Better -- long-desired progressive wish-list agenda items. Pumping hundreds of billions into the economy will do nothing to alleviate inflation. The opposite.
