In what many are calling a win for Democrats, the Biden administration and the planet, President Joe Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act—a climate, healthcare and spending bill—into law on Tuesday.

President Biden shared the news on Twitter, posting:


"The Inflation Reduction Act is now law."
"Giving Medicare the power to negotiate lower prescription drug prices. Ensuring wealthy corporations pay their fair share in taxes."
"And taking the biggest step forward on climate in our history."

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) aims to curb inflation by reducing the deficit, lowering prescription drug prices and investing in domestic energy production while promoting clean energy solutions.

The IRA allows Medicare to negotiate some drug prices and extend financial assistance so more Americans can increase their health coverage under the Affordable Care Act. It is also the largest federal effort to fight the climate crisis with $370 billion in tax credits to incentivize renewable power sources with a goal of cutting emissions by 40% by 2030.

People congratulated the President for his latest accomplishment. Among them was former Democratic President Barack Obama.

He quote tweeted his former Vice President's message with the caption:

"This is a BFD."


BFD is a Big F*cking Deal for the uninitiated.

Demonstrating the playful back and forth their 8 years as President and Vice President were known for, Biden resurrected a popular meme.

He replied:

"Thanks Obama."

People recognized the meme originally used by conservatives to blame Obama for their personal grievances.

It was quickly turned into satire by trolls and Obama supporters alike who began thanking Obama for more and more absurd things—like the sinking of the Titanic or the extinction of dinosaurs—or for positive outcomes—like affordable healthcare options.

MAGA Melts Down After 'Woke' Pope Leo Urges The World To 'Search Always For Peace'

MAGA followers were not happy with Pope Leo XIV and accused him of being "woke" after he, in remarks to reporters, implored "people of good will" to "search always for peace."

The Pope spoke out after President Donald Trump insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Carlson urged U.S. military aides to refuse any orders involving the killing of Iranian civilians. Owens, formerly of Turning Point USA, condemned the administration as “satanic” and called on Congress to remove what she described as the “Mad King Trump.”
