Issues & Insights looks at Biden’s record on inflation. It’s not good.

Cataloguing Biden’s Ineptitude On Inflation

“…When the latest government report on inflation came out on Wednesday, showing that it had hit another grim milestone in June of 9.1%, President Joe Biden told the public not to worry.

That figure, he said, “is out of date.” Prices for key components of the Consumer Price Index have eased so far in July, he said. Besides, he said, inflation is higher “in many countries (in Europe) than in America.”

The public would do well to ignore anything Biden says about inflation, given his horrible track record when it comes to this topic. Since prices started their upward climb in March 2021, Biden has by turns claimed that it was the result of a booming economy, that it was temporary, that it was the result of supply chain bottlenecks, and most recently that Vladimir Putin is to blame.

When not making fact-free claims like those, Biden simply lies. Take his oft-repeated claim that Europeans have it far worse on inflation. Even Newsweek magazine felt obliged to conclude in its fact check “that Biden’s statement that U.S. inflation is the ‘lowest of almost every major nation’ is largely inaccurate.”

We don’t expect readers to simply take our word for it that Biden has been out to lunch on inflation. So we assembled a handy chart showing the annualized rate of inflation each month since January 2020. It matches up that record with statements Biden made about inflation.

See for yourself.

As the public has been able to see through Biden’s smokescreen. Voters overwhelmingly blame Biden, not Putin, not COVID, not the weather, for inflation. As our I&I/TIPP Poll last month showed, even a majority of Democrats blame Biden’s policies for rising prices.

The problem is that Biden is either too dumb, too ignorant, or too pigheaded to admit he’s to blame and change course. So voters will have to force him to do so in November…”

Liberal media and Democrats continue to hype Covid, however. They still see political advantage using the disease to scare voters. The piece below is CNN.

If you get news and opinion from liberal media, it’s on you.

North Carolina #1 for business

By putting partisanship aside, North Carolina ranks No. 1 in America’s Top States for Business, with the nation’s strongest economy

    • Always a contender in CNBC’s annual state competitiveness rankings, North Carolina finishes on top for the first time.
    • Political leaders in the Tar Heel State keep managing to put partisanship aside to build the nation’s strongest economy.
    • Other top finishers are Washington, Virginia, Colorado and Texas. This year’s Bottom State for Business is Mississippi.

The one thing Biden does well is find ideological fools to foul up government policy.

I support our police 100%, but when they screw up, they have to be held to account. Uvalde was worse than a screwup. Multiple people in leadership and the ranks must be held to account for the terrible failures that day.

The awful Uvalde surveillance video

“…It’s awful because it brings home the extent of the cops’ paralysis in a way nothing else can. Even at just four minutes in length, with cops visible in the hallway for only about half that time, the extent of the delay is maddening. You’ll want to crawl through the screen after 60 seconds or so and head down towards the shooter yourself.

They’re outside the door of the classroom at 11:37 a.m. but a few shots from the gunman send them fleeing in terror. That’s when the long wait begins.

An officer briefly checks his smart phone at one point. Another, later in the standoff, helps himself to some hand sanitizer from the dispenser on the wall as he waits around. Ballistic shields are on scene at 11:52, but nothing happens.

There’s finally movement at around 3:15 of the clip, but pay close attention to the “real time” clock in the upper left-hand corner. The police begin making their way down the hallway at 12:21, shortly after they hear the gunman fire four more shots. But it’s another *half-hour* before they finally enter and take him down…”
