This, of course, is what Ted's cartoon brain is referring to:

Gee. Doesn't seem much like a terrible insurrection if everybody was laughing at the only guy who
ran away from it, huh?
Checkmate.
I consider the case of Jan 6th now open and shut with no further need to bring it up ever again.
Thank you, Ted.
The defense rests.
Trump 2024.

Thank you Ted. We'll put that message out everywhere.
I wouldn't have even known about Josh Hawley and how that incident and how the Leftist Media reacted to it undermined their entire messaging about January 6th if it weren't for you, buddy.

Even CNN is calling Biden* a fucking liar on the economy.

Maybe if you called Democrats out more often when they try to pull this shit every day people would actually watch your network.

Quote:Too bad you didn't read beyond the headline and understand what the next sentence means: "With inflation hitting a 40-year high in June, Americans are struggling to keep up with rising prices and putting less money aside for emergencies or long-term financial goals, several studies show."

It means, since you need help, 6ix, that the rich are doing very well at gathering all the poor people's money. After that big win you predict in November for Republicans, they won't pass any legislation to control prices because it is Communism for anyone but the rich to set prices.

Just because you change the definition of words when you don't like what the words mean doesn't mean we're not in a recession.
Keep lying to us Democrats and Legacy Media.
It's far too late for you to save yourselves.
The Democratic Party is dead come November, and the Legacy Media will follow.

heard news that McDonald's raised the price of plain cheeseburger, for the first time in 14 years. During the Rock-The-Vote Recession.
It stayed the same through all of Obaminomics, all of Trump's juggernaut economy, and the last 18 months of coasting from Trump.

I haven't had a fake meat patty from Mickey D's in 20 years.
I doubt they actually kept it the same price for that long though. I can all but guaranty you that the size of the burger got smaller.
Remember Wendy's Double Stacks in the late 90's/early 2000's? Biggest double cheeseburger in the world for only 99 cents.
You see a Double Stack today? It's like a double White Castle Slider. I bet it's more than a buck too.

I think it was last year that Little Caesar's bumped their price of Wings from $5.99 to $6.99
Now they just had to bump it another buck to $7.99

Well... for the first time I'm seeing a not insignificant bump in food prices on things that I buy.
The only question is do I restock things I don't need now at these prices or wait and hope that prices come down before I need them?

Quote:The sole purpose of inflation is to discover how much money you have and take all of it. There are actual people deciding what prices will be and the criteria for their decisions are what is best for the decision maker. Now is always the time to buy, unless the food is seasonal with a time for lowest prices when the harvest arrives.

Why are gas prices falling? Don't thank Biden — like we can't blame him when they go up by Amanda Drane, Aug. 5, 2022

How far have gasoline prices fallen?
The average gas price in Houston fell to $3.73 cents a gallon this week after soaring above $4 a gallon for the first time in history in the months after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Prices here have fallen nearly 70 cents per gallon over the past month and 91 cents since prices here peaked at an average of $4.64 a gallon.
How do today’s gas prices compare to normal?
Houstonians are still paying roughly 97 cents per gallon more than they were last year, even as prices have steadily fallen. Nationally, gas prices are averaging around $4 a gallon, compared to $3 a gallon last year, when vaccines boosted summer travel, and $2.60 a gallon in July 2019.
The early pandemic brought the lowest gas prices in recent memory, knocking them down to $2 a gallon nationally in July 2020, as COVID raged and lockdowns ravaged demand.
Why is demand falling now?
Part of the decline is seasonal. People drive more in summer and the driving season peaks in early July and then tapers into the fall. The rest we can blame on inflation.
Inflation is cutting into consumers spending power and forcing them to cut back. It has has become such a driving force that it is doing more to push down demand for gasoline than the pandemic did in summer 2020, according to Energy Department data released Wednesday.
Demand for gasoline fell 8 percent to 8.5 million barrels per day over the last week — 13 percent below 9.8 million barrels per day during the same week last year, and nearly 1 percent below the same week in 2020.
Why aren’t diesel prices coming down more?
Diesel prices aren’t moderating as much as gasoline prices because diesel demand has not fallen as sharply and stockpiles are still incredibly low — inventories of distillates, which include diesel are still 25 percent below normal for this time of year.
Will prices keep falling?
Trends are looking good, but we’re not out of the woods, yet. Gasoline prices should progressively decrease if the U.S. economy weakens. If America avoids a recession and demand does not taper off, prices will likely stay elevated. Oil producers are still struggling to hire workers and access sold-out equipment, so they will need time to ramp up their capacity if demand stays high.
Tight refining capacity, too, also leaves us more vulnerable to catastrophe — a hurricane or fire that knocks out a refinery could lead to a spike in fuel prices.
