In an op-ed for the New York Times, Gates claimed the so-called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.democrats.senate.gov\/imo\/media\/doc\/inflation_reduction_act_one_page_summary.pdf\">Inflation Reduction Act<\/a> could be the most important piece of \u201cclimate legislation\u201d in American history.<\/p>\n<p>The Microsoft founder argued that the bill would create an \u201cenergy future that is cleaner, cheaper and more secure.\u201d Gates also said making solar panels and wind turbines is very important. The Democrat bill would finance that. According to reports, Gates aggressively lobbied in favor of that bill, resulting in Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) changing his mind to support the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) said the Inflation Reduction Act is a \u201cwar on Medicare.\u201d In an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rick-scott-transcript-face-the-nation-08-07-2022\/\">interview <\/a>Sunday, he voiced strong opposition to cutting Medicare funds.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Democrats\u2019 latest reckless tax &#038; spend spree is a War on Seniors &#038; War on American Jobs.

Scott\u2019s comments came just before Vice President Kamala Harris broke the tie in the Senate, pushing the legislation through the upper chamber.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the 45th President slammed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) while asserting he has been manipulated by the Democrats.\u00a0 In a post on Truth Social Sunday, Trump accused McConnell of caving to the Democrats on the infrastructure bill, compromising on the Second Amendment and not using the debt ceiling for negotiations.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cMitch McConnell got played like a fiddle with the vote today by the Senate Democrats. First he gave them the fake Infrastructure Bill, then Guns, never used the Debt Ceiling for negotiating purposes (gave it away for NOTHING!), and now this. Mitch doesn\u2019t have a clue \u2013 he is sooo bad for the Republican Party!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Donald Trump via Truth Social<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While at CPAC, Trump said McConnell compromises with Sen. Manchin too much, which led to Republicans suffering since the West Virginia Democrat voted for the Inflation Reduction Act. The former President said, \u201cMitch doesn\u2019t have a clue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden praised the bills passing in the Senate. He released his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2022\/08\/07\/statement-by-president-biden-on-senate-passage-of-the-inflation-reduction-act\/\">statement<\/a> on the legislation on Sunday, just one day after its passage.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Statement by President Biden on Senate passage of the Inflation Reduction Act: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Dstk783CNy\">pic.twitter.com\/Dstk783CNy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The White House (@WhiteHouse) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WhiteHouse\/status\/1556370973988978688?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 7, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Before the vote, Biden touted the bill as a means to combat inflation, despite many economists saying it would do the opposite.
