Biden to World: Russia, Oil Sheiks, and China Control the U.S. Economy

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Friday, after news broke that inflation again accelerated to reach a 40-year high of 8.6 percent, President Joe Biden turned America’s financial crisis into a national security one by telling the world that foreign leaders have near-total control over the U.S. economy.

Shortly after the Bureau of Labor Statistics released May’s price report, which in addition to reporting an 8.6 percent annual inflationary rate showed a full 1 percent increase last month, President Biden began the spin: “Today’s report underscores why I have made fighting inflation my top economic priority. While it is good to see critical ‘core’ inflation moderating, it is not coming down as sharply and as quickly as we must see. Putin’s price hike hit hard in May here and around the world: high gas prices at the pump, energy, and food prices accounted for around half of the monthly price increases.”

The president’s entire pitch struck a chord conflicting with reality. “Biden hasn’t made inflation his top economic priority,” noted Katie Pavlich soon after. “For months, his administration denied inflation was happening, saying it wouldn’t be an issue, before calling it temporary and transitory last summer.” And the skyrocketing inflation began before Russia’s January 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

The public has long known that Biden suffers from an acute case of blameuitis. But the president’s continued claims that Putin holds responsibility for our country’s accelerating inflationary rates, when coupled with Biden’s other actions and inactions, is not merely tone deaf, it is dangerous. While finger-pointing has long been a mainstay for politicians, the Biden administration’s messaging goes beyond shifting blame to conceding that foreign leaders can control the U.S. economy in Joe Biden’s America.

Irate Joe: Biden Gets Visibly Angry, Yells in Microphone Over Accusations of ‘Reckless Spending’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden yelled angrily into the microphone Tuesday over accusations about his “reckless spending” at the 29th AFL-CIO Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Biden attempted to debunk Republicans’ claims that he is a “big spender” and contributing to a rising deficit. He said the administration will cut the deficit by another $1.6 trillion in one year.

“We have spent a lot of money, let’s compare the facts,” Biden said. “Under my predecessor, the deficit exploded, rising every single year and all the benefit going to the top one percent, basically. Under my plan, last year we cut the deficit $350 billion doing all this … When they come to you and talk about big spenders, let them know [there is] almost $2 trillion in deficit reduction.”

“I don’t want to hear any more of these lies about reckless spending. We’re changing people’s lives!” he shouted. “And because of the facts this year, we’re delivering the biggest drop in the deficit in the history of the United States of America.”

Clinton Pollster and Karl Rove Make Stunning Biden Prediction (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A pollster for former President Bill Clinton predicted that President Joe Biden might not run for re-election in 2024 during a Monday appearance on Fox News.

“I’ve always for a long time doubted whether President Biden was actually going to run for re-election,” Mark Penn told Fox News host Martha McCallum on “The Story.” “When you’re the president and you’ve even gotten to the midterms, you really need to tell everybody you’re running because you don’t want to be a premature lame duck.”

Penn expressed surprise at comments by Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York that he described as “yanking the rug” out from under Biden.

“I mean first of all, I’m focused on winning the majority right now and preserving a majority this year in 2022, so we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it,” Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview on CNN Sunday. “But I think if the President has a vision, then that’s something certainly, we’re all willing to entertain and examine when the time comes.”

Other Democrats have also been expressing doubt about whether Biden should seek another term, The New York Times reported. (Read more from “Clinton Pollster and Karl Rove Make Stunning Biden Prediction” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Just 33 percent of voters approve of President Joe Biden, while 56 percent disapprove, a Civiqs poll revealed Sunday.

The Civiqs poll ties Biden’s lowest-ever approval rating from Quinnipiac polling on June 8. Quinnipiac has marked Biden’s approval rating at 33 percent in June, April, and January.

Biden’s overall approval rating has been weighed down by independents, according to Civiqs. Only 21 percent of independents approved of Biden, while 66 percent disapproved. (Read more from “Poll: Just 33 Percent Approve of Joe Biden, Tying Lowest Approval Rating” HERE)

Americans Still Care More About Inflation Than Abortion

/0 Comments/in , /by

Most Americans still rank record-high inflation under President Joe Biden as the most important issue facing the United States even as the mainstream media fear-monger about the Supreme Court potentially overturning Roe v. Wade, according to a FiveThirtyEight/Ipsos poll released Thursday.

Fifty-five percent of Americans—including 71 percent of Republicans, 41 percent of Democrats, and 54 percent of independents—say inflation is the most important issue, the poll found, a 4-point increase since May. Just 10 percent, by contrast, say abortion is their biggest concern.

While mainstream media sources, including the New York Times, have attempted to stoke fears of abortion bans following the leak of a Supreme Court ruling that overturns Roe, the percent of Americans who cite abortion as their most important issue has increased by only 5 points, the poll found.

A Former Obama Adviser Says Joe Biden’s Age Is a Red Flag

/0 Comments/in , /by

David Axelrod, a former adviser to Barack Obama during his presidency, raised a “major” red flag about the possibility of President Joe Biden’s plans to run for re-election in 2024.

The former Obama adviser’s statements appeared in a Saturday New York Times report that examined the growing presence of prominent Democrats who are increasingly worried about Biden’s leadership, the Washington Examiner reported.

Axelrod specifically noted his concerns with Biden’s elevated age noting that Biden would be nearly 90-years-old by the end of his second term if he wins reelection.

Axelrod said, “The presidency is a monstrously taxing job, and the stark reality is the president would be closer to 90 than 80 at the end of a second term, and that would be a major issue.” (Read more from “A Former Obama Adviser Says Joe Biden’s Age Is a Red Flag” HERE)

Is Biden Planning to Purchase Oil From Saudi Arabia?

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden is expected to extend an olive branch to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after promising to make him a “pariah” and working to isolate the Saudi regime for months.

On Monday, the White House confirmed that Biden is planning to visit the oil-rich nation this summer, marking the culmination of an 18-month standoff between Biden and the crown prince. Biden is trying to wind up back in the crown prince’s good graces as gas prices soar amid the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Insider News reported that attempts by U.S. officials to convince the Saudis to increase their oil production have thus far been unsuccessful. Reportedly, the crown prince has repeatedly ignored phone calls from Biden when the president has sought to discuss issues of oil availability.

Displaying how vulnerable and dependent the U.S. is on foreign oil, Biden recently directly asked the crown prince to increase Saudi Arabia’s oil output. (Read more from “Is Biden Planning to Purchase Oil From Saudi Arabia?” HERE)

Expert: Housing Market Most Constricted Since 2006, Purchase Applications Down 40%

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States housing market is just another sector of the economy that is suffering from coronavirus lockdowns and President Joe Biden’s policies. One expert predicts the most constricted housing market since 2006.

“The U.S. housing market is at the beginning stages of the most significant contraction in activity since 2006,” Len Kiefer, an economist with Freddie Mac, said in a Business Insider report.

Kiefer said this has not shown up in data yet but will surface over the summer.

“Purchase [applications are] down 40 percent from seasonally adjusted peak,” Kiefer said. (Read more from “Expert: Housing Market Most Constricted Since 2006, Purchase Applications Down 40%” HERE)

White House Economist Has No Plan for Bidenflation

/0 Comments/in , /by

Friday morning brought catastrophic results showing inflation yet again at a forty year high. It was even bad enough to blow past expectations. Predictably, President Joe Biden’s response involved blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin. White House Economist Cecilia Rouse tried to repeat that bogus excuse that same day, but not even CNN’s Jim Sciutto would let her get away with it.

Shortly after the numbers were release, Rouse appeared on “CNN Newsroom” where Sciutto directly asked her “does the White House see any relief in these numbers for Americans in the near future, and if so, when?”

Through her fumbled response, Rouse failed to give a proper response. “So, look, the president very much understands and we very much understand that that we’ve got uncomfortably high inflation. What we saw in the data this month was that month on month prices increased overall, the headline CPI increased about 1 percent, and about half of that was due to food and energy, which can be almost directly tied to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.”

Rouse looked to continue by saying “and so” before Sciutto cut in. “It’s not just that, you know,” he said, as sounding less than patient with this administration’s tactic to blame everyone else. “It’s not–prices are rising, I get it. I get the world oil markets are up, but you know pricing are rising for everything: used cars, rent.”

Faced with Scuitto’s pushback, Rouse had no choice but to concede to his point. “Absolutely. And so, and the president understands that and so he has, like, he has emphasized he’s focused on this as part of his plan, I know this doesn’t sound like a plan, but first and foremost he respects the independence of the federal reserve.” (Read more from “White House Economist Has No Plan for Bidenflation” HERE)

Angry Joe: Biden Turns on News Media as Midterm Elections Loom

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden is griping about his press coverage as he struggles to break through back-to-back negative news cycles before the 2022 midterm elections.

But complaining about the news media is unlikely to help Biden or congressional Democrats before November as Biden’s job approval numbers plummet into former President Donald Trump territory.

Biden campaigned, in part, to normalize press relations after his predecessor, Trump, slammed the news media as “the enemy of the people.” But public officials have the tendency to “lash out” at journalists and reporters when they encounter “political turbulence,” according to former Republican staffer-turned-Claremont McKenna College politics professor John Pitney.

“In most cases, the bad coverage is a symptom of their woes, not the cause,” Pitney told the Washington Examiner. (Read more from “Angry Joe: Biden Turns on News Media as Midterm Elections Loom” HERE)
