1) Windmills Are 4,000 Times More Dangerous to the Environment than Plastic Straws

The Biden administration has, of course, been a leading proponent of banning plastic straws to save the planet.

But if plastics are a major threat to the environment, then why in the world is the Biden-Harris team throwing hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies at windmills?

A recent analysis by our friends at The Manhattan Institute finds:

"When the 20 wind turbines that constitute just one small 100-MW wind farm wear out, decommissioning and trashing them will lead to fourfold more nonrecyclable plastic trash than all the world's (recyclable) plastic straws combined. There are 1,000 times more wind turbines than that in the world today."

2) Thousands of IRS Employees and Contractors Owe $50 Million In Unpaid Taxes
Who's watching the watchdogs? The Biden-Harris IRS is in the middle of an "Inflation Reduction Act" hiring spree that will see an additional 87,000 full-time employees installed over the next few years.

Maybe the IRS should start by auditing itself.

A Treasury Inspector General shows 5,800 IRS employees owe the government $50 million in unpaid taxes.

There are only two possibilities here. Either a) the IRS is filled with tax cheats or b) even the IRS agents don't understand the tax code.

We're not sure which is worse.

Oh, and by the way, federal law requires that any federal employee who is caught cheating on their taxes must be fired. So far, only 20 IRS agents have been fired.

3) Econ 101 – How Cutting the Corporate Tax Rate Made America Competitive Again
Unleash Prosperity co-founder Steve Moore has been invited by Sen. Mike Lee of Utah to address the 49 Republican Senators at their weekly policy lunch today.

One key message is this: Americans must vigorously defend the Trump tax cut – especially the reduction in the business tax rate from 35% to 21%. Some GOP senators have been foolishly talking about raising the rate – which is the the Left's plan.

The rate cut was critical in bringing jobs, factories, and capital BACK to the U.S. just as we had projected it would back in 2017.

We will show this chart to the Senators reminding them that prior to the Trump rate cut, America had the highest rate in the world. It was as if we were imposing a tariff on our own made-in-America products.

If we want more jobs on these shores, we should have the lowest tax rates – not the highest ones. This is a matter of economic patriotism.

4) Kamala Was AGAINST Fracking Before She Was for It
Kamala is proving to be an expert contortionist by the way she keeps flip-flopping her policy positions. She just recently renounced her famous 2020 declaration that she would "ban fracking." We have it on tape!

We can't help wondering whether our Vice President even knows what fracking is. Does she know, as our friend Harold Hamm of Continental Energy has explained to us, that almost all of our current oil wells now use horizontal drilling and/or fracking to capture the energy locked in shale rock formations 2,000 feet below ground?

As such, ANY ban on fracking is a de facto ban on domestic drilling.

The green groups are in on the ruse. They know that Kamala is their girl. One of their key leaders even said the quiet part out loud:

5) Biden Admin. Antitrust Extremism Reduces Competition
Kudos to the only economically rational Democratic governor on the madness of Biden blocking the merger of two small and struggling airlines – Sprint and Frontier – that want to compete heads-on with the majors like United and American.

Polis, who relies on our Unleash Prosperity co-founder Arthur Laffer for economic advice, must also be a HOTLINE reader because he makes precisely the logical argument we have:

[link removed]

It isn't just Jared Polis questioning the wisdom of the Biden-Harris administration's expansive view of antitrust enforcement.

A new poll from Echelon Insights for NetChoice finds that 65% of swing state voters support restoring the consumer welfare standard and just 21% support the current policy.
