    Bidenflation sends a stumbling, bumbling Biden desperately searching for distractions

    Even as President Joe Biden was spewing deplorable falsehoods about his political opponents in Atlanta, the chickens of his administration's economy were coming home to roost. Wednesday's Bureau of Labor Statistics report on inflation, revealing last month's 7% inflation rate, sets yet another 40-year record, harkening back to the bad old days of double-digit interest rates and Paul Volcker's bitter medicine for the economy of the early 1980s.

    With this week's report, it is clear that the Biden economy is in an inflation crisis. It is a crisis that neither Biden nor his useless Twitter-addicted senior staff has any clue how to fix. But they have all kinds of ideas about how to make it even worse.

    Inflation is raging even as last week's Labor Department employment report shows that Biden's economy is falling far short of expectations for job creation.

    If you're wondering why Biden has become so bitter and vituperative about legislation in Congress that is going nowhere, look no further than these economic results. The average worker in 2021 lost the equivalent of two paychecks due to Bidenflation.

    Lower-income earners have been hit the hardest as food and energy prices have skyrocketed. Biden has no clue how to stop these rising prices, which is why he can resort only to distractions. That's why he can be found in front of the nearest camera, loudly spouting whatever nonsensical political rhetoric his staff writes and puts in front of him in a special large-type font.

    But even as Biden tries his 79-year-old best to sound like his heart is in it, his rhetoric practically glows from its insincerity. It is hard to believe that a president proving to be such a disappointment in so many areas — foreign policy, immigration, the pandemic, the supply crisis, and the economy — is now attempting a massive power grab in the Senate so he can rig elections in his party's favor and do even more damage to the economy through inflationary spending with the barest of legislative majorities.

    Fortunately, Biden does not even have simple-majority support for this endeavor nor the full backing of his own party. This makes his push to destroy all the checks and balances on his power within the Senate even more absurd and needlessly divisive than it is.

    Biden's lack of support from other Democrats may be the one thing saving the nation from a far worse situation than the one it is suffering now. Voters can only look forward to this fall, when they can finally send Biden a message about his divisive, toxic, and totally incompetent stewardship of a formerly strong and recovering nation's well-being.


    Yeah, we need a war or something.

      Biden should just issue an executive order to change the name of the day to George Floyd Day.

        'Bleak' polls signal difficult year ahead for Biden, Democrats

        The political environment facing Democrats is darkening as President Joe Biden enters the second year of his term, with several new polls showing voters are disappointed in the direction his administration has led the country and are prepared to hold his party accountable in the midterm elections.

        “The polls are pretty bleak,” said Democratic strategist Brad Bannon. “There’s no question about it.”
        [...]
        Other recent polls indicate support for Biden and his agenda is eroding with suburban voters who helped put him in office. In a Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll published Monday, 56% of suburban voters said former President Donald Trump was a better president than Biden, and 57% said they are more likely to support Republicans than Democrats in the midterms.

          Yep
          Even with his disastrous approval, his rating still never has dropped below Don’s.

          Of course Biden doesn’t have the advantage of the blind followers that Trump has that will support him not matter what he does. Biden doesn’t have the luxury of shooting someone on 5th Avenue.

              Biden extends Trump’s solar tariffs with key exemptions

              President Biden announced today he would extend the Trump administration’s tariffs on solar imports for another four years, but with key exemptions that pleased developers and disappointed U.S. manufacturers.

              In a presidential proclamation, Biden kept tariffs on solar panels made outside the U.S., saying they were still necessary to protect domestic producers.

              Biden doubled an annual import quota for foreign-made solar cells and excluded a special double-sided type of solar panel from the tariffs.

                Biden administration to fund programs that hand out crack pipes to prevent infection and promote 'racial equity'
                • The $30 million grant program will distribute funds to nonprofits and local governments to make drug use safer and 'advance racial equity'
                • Included in the grant is money to purchase 'safe smoking kits/supplies'
                • A spokesperson for HHS said included in these kits could be pipes for users to smoke substances like crack cocaine and crystal methamphetamine
                • HHS said that the kits will serve to limit the risk of infection - typically users smoke out of glass pipes which can lead to cuts and sores that become infected
                • Handing out pipes is also intended to prompt users to smoke rather than inject themselves with some substances, like meth, as injection is far riskier
                • It is against the law to sell or distribute drug paraphernalia - including such pipes - unless authorized by state, local or federal law
                [...]
                President Biden's Health and Human Services department is finalizing funding to dole out crack pipes to drug addicts as part of its 'Harm Reduction Plan.'

                      Doh...

                      Biden average approval rating dips below 40 percent for first time

                      President Biden’s approval rating in a key average of major polls dropped below 40 percent this week, the first time that had happened since he took office.

                      The Real Clear Politics average of all recent national surveys found Wednesday that 39.8 percent of Americans approved of Biden’s performance in office, while 54.4 percent disapproved.
                      [...]



                      But, but, but what about Drumpf?...

                      Biden’s popularity has even dropped below that of his predecessor, Donald Trump, who finished his four years in office with an average approval rating of 41.1 percent, according to RCP.

                      The abysmal rating comes as the White House continues to grapple with soaring inflation and rising gas prices, the COVID-19 pandemic and surging crime in big cities.

                        Biden's popularity slides even further to 37% approval with Russian invasion of Ukraine : New poll shows Republicans with a 10-point advantage over Democrats heading into midterms
                        • Joe Biden's approval rating fell below 40% in a recent poll showing only 37% of Americans approve of his job as president and 55% disapprove
                        • 61% of independent voters rate the president negatively, showing the growing negative influence of independent Americans on Biden's performance
                        • The same poll released Sunday by ABC News/Washington Post shows, 50% of adults want Republicans to control Congress after the 2022 midterms
                        • 40% of the 1,011 polled want Democrats to control Capitol Hill after this year
                        • The polling comes as Biden continues to face criticism for not being tough enough on Russia after Putin waged a full-scale attack on Ukraine last week
                        President Joe Biden's approval rating hit a new low of 37 percent in a poll released Sunday that also showed 10 percent more American adults would prefer Republicans control Congress than Democrats.

                        More than half – 55 percent – of adults disapprove of Biden's job so far just days before the president is set to deliver his first State of the Union address. Seven percent say they have no opinion.

                        Of the 37 percent who approve, only 20 percent say they 'strongly approve' while of the 55 percent disapproval, 44 percent strongly disapprove, according to the new ABC News/Washington Post poll taken February 20-24.

                        When broken down by party, an overwhelming majority of Republicans at 86 percent disapprove of Biden's job performance and even 61 percent of independent voters rate the president negatively.

                            Yeah, letting Putin have his pipeline to Germany (i.e., lifting the sanctions the minute he got into office) wasn't being tough enough on Russia, for sure. In fact, just recently Comrade Biden was lobbying against Russia sanctions that would block it: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/0...nctions-526864 But then lied by saying the administration never supported the Nord Stream 2 pipeline: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/psa...eam-2-pipeline In short, Joe is finding it hard to be a good comrade to Putin given all the eyes focused on the situation. I wonder how Hunter's art sales have been.

                            Post-ABC poll finds a deeply pessimistic nation, worried about the economy and Biden’s leadership

                            The president’s approval rating hits a new low, as voters indicate more trust in Republicans than Democrats as they approach November’s midterm elections
                            [...]
                            The poll finds Biden’s presidential approval rating at a new low, with 37 percent saying they approve of the job he is doing and 55 percent saying they disapprove. Overall, 44 percent say they strongly disapprove.
                            [...]
                            The president appears to be weighed down by Americans’ sour assessment of the economy. Today, 75 percent of Americans rate the economy negatively, up from 70 percent in November. That represents the worst rating since 2013 in Post-ABC polls. In all, 39 percent say the economy is in “poor” shape, the highest number since 2012, though little changed from the 38 percent who said the same in November.
                            By a wide margin, Americans say the economy has gotten worse since Biden took office, with 54 percent saying so compared with 17 percent who say the economy has gotten better and 27 percent who say it has remained about the same as it was before he was sworn in 13 months ago.
                            [...]
                            But the inflation rate has hit a 40-year high, with gasoline and grocery prices hitting the pocketbooks of American families.

                            Almost 6 in 10 Americans say inflation has caused hardships for themselves or members of their household, with 3 in 10 saying those hardships have been serious. Among those with incomes below $50,000, the percentage who say they have suffered serious hardship is even higher, at 43 percent.
                            [...]
                            On an even more personal question, 54 percent say they do not think Biden has the mental sharpness it takes to serve as president, while 40 percent say he does.

                              Yeah, letting Putin have his pipeline to Germany (i.e., lifting the sanctions the minute he got into office) wasn't being tough enough on Russia, for sure. In fact, just recently Comrade Biden was lobbying against Russia sanctions that would block it: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/0...nctions-526864 But then lied is saying the administration never supported the Nord Stream 2 pipeline: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/psa...eam-2-pipeline In short, Joe is finding it hard to be a good comrade to Putin given all the eyes focused on the situation. I wonder how Hunter's art sales have been.

                              Americans don't want our solders in this.

                              Most Americans are finally realizing what I have been saying about Joe for sometime. He shouldn't be running this country and needs serious help.
                              I don't want Biden to be a two term President but this Russia vs Ukraine war is shaping up to be the type of event that can absolutely reinforce his chosen narrative. The united EU & NATO front makes him look like a competent diplomat. Further, Putin's actions will galvanize American unity behind Biden and gives us an enemy we can all hate. Biden can ride a domestic stalemate while enjoying great support and approval in this dominating foreign issue.

                              I'm choosing to mostly ignore your fatuity here and instead overwhelm you with so much data that you'll maybe, just maybe, realize that you have reams to read on this subject before you can contribute meaningfully to any conversation on this topic.

                                But those damn democratic socialists may split the party... and expose faults in Uncle Joe's narrative:

                                Democratic Socialists blame US imperialism for Russian invasion of Ukraine

                                The Democratic Socialists of America blamed US and NATO “imperialist expansion” for helping trigger the Russian invasion of Ukraine — provoking criticism from local political leaders.

                                “DSA reaffirms our call for the US to withdraw from NATO and to end the imperialist expansionism that set the stage for this conflict,” the DSA said in a statement.

                                “While the failures of neoliberal order are clear to everyone, the ruling class is trying to build a new world, through a dystopic transition grounded in militarism, imperialism, and war. Socialists have a duty to build an alternative.”

                                The socialist group continued that “much of the next ten years are coming into view through this attack” and closed by saying, “no war but
                                class war.”

                                The DSA’s members who are elected leaders include Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
