Biden's chairman of his Council of Economic Advisers, Jared Bernstein, doubles down on inflation being 9% when Biden took office, a statement now fact-checked to death since Biden incorrectly stated it
Jared Bernstein is emblematic of the malarkey in the Biden administration.
He's called an economist, but has no economic credentials. Bernstein took his college degrees in music and social work.
Neil Cavuto savages Bernstein here.
Separately, this short Q&A with Bernstein about printing money and lending it is just epic.
It was all inflation, running at 3.4%: Advance retail sales in April up 3% year over year, but flat from March to April
You're just shelling out more for the same stuff, not buying new stuff.
“Today’s retail sales report reflects a pullback in consumer spending that retailers have called out in recent earnings reports,” said Claire Tassin, retail and e-commerce analyst at Morning Consult.
Compared with last April, sales were up 3%, but the Census Bureau doesn’t adjust the data for inflation, which came in at 3.4% on an annual basis in April, according to the latest consumer price index report. That suggests that the sales gains from a year ago are “entirely attributable to inflation, not increased consumer demand,” Tassin said.

Two days after the May 14th primaries Democrats are way behind Republicans counting all the votes because they're counting mail-in votes

The continuing price gouging by US natural gas utilities is astounding
Look at all that daylight between what utilities charge and the gas actually costs.
Permanently higher food prices and still climbing at 2.2% in April 2024
The last time we had any actual food price deflation was in late 2016 for a few months.
Core CPI inflation came in at 3.6% year over year in April 2024 in this morning's report, still 83% worse than under Trump

Janet Yellen: Sexual abuse of female employees at FDIC under Martin Gruenberg "totally unacceptable"
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen signaled her displeasure, telling reporters Tuesday that “the kind of abuses that were documented in the report are a totally unacceptable way to treat employees at the FDIC and not in line with the core values of the Biden administration.” She stopped short, however, of joining Republican calls for his resignation.

Well now, they've been keeping that one pretty quiet in the media haven't they?
There's a different level of scrutiny for Republican appointees, until it gets so bad for Democrat ones that they can't avoid it any longer.

Not only did the Joos do 9/11, they did 10/7 too, AND single-handedly kept every single country in the Middle East from becoming a democracy in the post-war
Works for the very shady Washington Post AND Fuller Seminary. Wow.
Abandon Hope All Who Enter Here.
Times have really changed in New York City
Traumatized tourist stabbed in Times Square will never return to city...
When I first visited New York City many years ago, we parked the car and as we got out a cab pulled up along side but behind us a little on an angle.
A man jumped out of the back seat, pulled out his pecker, and peed like a race horse on the street right in front of us like it was nothing. Then he jumped back in the cab and it took off again.
Never even got wet.
