Summary
Inflation in the U.S. rose 3% in January, with rent alone accounting for 30% of the increase.
Egg prices soared due to avian flu, worsening grocery costs.
Despite pledging to lower prices, Trump blamed inflation on Biden and foreign countries while avoiding specifics on his plan.
In a Fox News interview, he dodged questions about when prices would drop, instead citing trade deficits. The White House press secretary confirmed that the administration has no clear timeline for addressing the rising cost of living.
Danielle Smith would probably throw at fit if the federal government proposed that plan. Her sucking up to Trump got her a lower tariff rate on oil and she absolutely will not accept anything that would make the oil industry feel the same pain as the other industries affected by tariffs.
Yeah, well fuck her IMHO. And the oil companies too. They’re rich enough to endure a few months of economic leverage applied where it counts. If they squeal (and we know they will), well then they need to be called out and forced to publicly take a side in this whole situation.
EDIT: uncensored :P
I grant you permission to say fuck uncensored.
Yeah well I revoke your permission to grant permission.
Fortunately the permission was already granted so I don’t need permission anymore.
