  1. How Baker Mayfield did in Panthers’ joint practice with the Patriots on Aug. 16, 2022 https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2022/08/how-baker-mayfield-did-in-panthers-joint-practice-with-the-patriots-on-aug-16-2022.html Baker Mayfield and the Panthers made a road trip to New England for the first of their joint practices with the Patriots leading up to a preseason matchup on Friday. Mayfield and Sam Darnold continue to battle it out for the starting job. But despite having the momentum prior to Saturday’s 23-21 preseason win in Washington, Mayfield didn’t create much more separation from Darnold. Mayfield started the game and was 4-for-7 for 45 yards. On Tuesday’s practice with the Patriots, Mayfield got the first reps with the first team per ESPN’s David Newton. Mayfield had some moments, including a 50-yard deep ball to DJ Moore according to Ellis Williams of the Charlotte Observer. But by and large, the day belonged to the Patriots’ defense. New England had multiple would-be sacks of Baker Mayfield per Alex Barth of 98.5 The Sports Hub in Boston. Second-year defensive tackle Christian Barmore had one and former Brown Daniel Ekuale combined with Brad Hawkins for another sack of Mayfield. In total, Mayfield was one for his first six throwing to receivers in one-on-one coverage and Patriots cornerback Jalen Mills nearly picked off Mayfield according to Fox Sports’ Henry McKenna. Mayfield later got the Panthers inside the Patriots’ 5-yard line, but turned it over on downs following three consecutive incomplete passes. The issue for Mayfield and the Panthers’ offense as a whole was how the Patriots dominated up front according to Mike Giardi of NFL Network. Patriots defensive end Deatrich Wise agreed with that sentiment when he spoke to reporters including Evan Lazar of Patiorts.com. Panthers coach Matt Rhule was asked after practice about whether Mayfield still has the chip on his shoulder. He said that what he’s seen from Mayfield so far is “a sense of urgency” per Williams. The two teams will practice again on Wednesday, before taking Thursday off and playing in preseason action on Friday night.

  3. https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/how-democrats-inflation-reduction-act-delivers-five-winning-issues-gop Pitfall number one: it turns out, the Inflation Reduction Act, passed via reconciliation with only Democrat votes, is a stink bomb. Its very name is so non-credible that even liberal media outlets like CNN and the New York Times have dumped the "Inflation Reduction Act" handle, and now describe it as the "Climate and Healthcare Bill." That figures; recent polling finds that only 12% of Americans think the package will actually reduce the cost of living, while 40% expect it will increase inflation. That assessment reflects the near-universal repudiation of the legislation’s inflation-fighting credentials by analysts at Penn Wharton and elsewhere. Democrats will struggle to tout an essentially dishonest bill. Pitfall number two: The main focus on the bill is not fighting inflation, but instead fighting climate change, which will likely drive prices higher, not lower. Climate change, according to Gallup does not even register in the top eleven issues Americans are concerned about. ANALYSIS SUGGESTS INFLATION REDUCTION ACT WILL REDUCE ANNUAL INFLATION BY ONLY 0.1 PERCENTAGE POINTS Democrats have allocated hundreds of billions of dollars to push our nation towards greater use of renewable energy. Renewable energy that is more expensive than cheap coal and natural gas, despite claims made by environmental groups, and that will raise electricity costs across the nation. Video Take a look at California, where local legislators have been in the vanguard of imposing renewable energy mandates and where electricity costs 80% more than the national average. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Public Advocates Office cited in a report last year some 17 "state legislative measures that increase the share of electricity that come from renewable power sources and energy efficiency programs" and that are raising consumer costs. Because the state is effectively mandating a switch to electric vehicles and electric home heating, demand for electricity in the state is expected to soar, and prices too. The CPUC report noted, at $3.27 per gallon for gas, "it was cheaper to fuel an internal combustion engine vehicle than to charge an EV in the San Diego Gas & Electric Co. service area." PELOSI SAYS GOP VOTES AGAINST INFLATION REDUCTION ACT WERE AGAINST 'MOTHER EARTH' California is not unique. All but one of the ten states punishing consumers with the nation’s highest electricity costs have renewable energy mandates. The Inflation Reduction Act will dictate such mandates nationwide, increasing electricity prices. The government, as in California, will have to step in to hide the real costs of these policies, and not just by providing taxpayer subsidies for EVs. Pitfall number three: Biden celebrated the Inflation Act’s passage by claiming, "Today, the American people won. Special interests lost." Fat chance. There is no more "special interest" than the green lobby, which funnels tens of millions of dollars every election cycle to Democrats. Video According to Open Secrets, the League of Conservation Voters spent over $18 million in the 2020 elections, with more than 99% going to Democrats. The Environmental Defense Fund, the Sierra Club and others also gave heavily to Democrats. These groups expect payback for their investments, and they got it. VULNERABLE DEMOCRATS THRUST INTO SPOTLIGHT AFTER VOTING IN FAVOR OF MANCHIN-SCHUMER INFLATION BILL They weren’t alone. To bring Arizona Democratic Senator Kyrsten Sinema aboard, the Party removed a minor tweak to the carried interest tax law that would have cost wealthy hedge fund and private equity players some $14 billion over the next ten years. Those beneficiaries gave Sinema millions of dollars in campaign contributions between 2017 and 2022, according to Open Secrets, which paid off handsomely.

CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER Pitfall number four: In the Inflation Reduction Act Democrats have presented deficit reduction as an inflation-fighting measure. Why is that a problem? Because numerous analysts have concluded that it was the over-the-top American Rescue Plan, passed with only Democratic votes, that kicked off inflation. Video Throwing $1.9 trillion in stimulus onto an economy that was already red-hot caused the price of everything to rise, as billions in checks and other benefits plumped up consumer bank accounts, savings and spending. Biden and his party have refused to take responsibility for spending our way into an inflationary cycle. But their insistence that a minor (and uncertain) reduction in the deficit can help bring down prices undermines their argument. Pitfall number five: The bill asks Americans to applaud a giant increase in the staffing and powers of the IRS. Imagine: 87,000 new agents invading that many more small businesses and households. Does any sane person think that will be popular? Or non-political? Or, that the newly-energized audit teams will only pursue high earners? Even Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has admitted some middle-class taxpayers will fall victim to the supersized IRS; the CBO just made it official.
