Economy

The New York Times pinned responsibility for “containing inflation” on the U.S. Federal Reserve, despite President Joe Biden’s vague promises during the State of the Union Address to “fight inflation” and “build a better America.” It seems that even the liberal media doesn’t trust Biden to enact policies that could help lower inflation anymore.

CNBC host Joe Kernen embarrassed President Joe Biden’s environmentalist cheerleaders who fought to keep oil in the ground because of so-called “climate change” while blaming former President Donald Trump for high gas prices. It’s as if leftists want to have their cake and eat it too.

During a Wednesday interview with Kentucky GOP Rep. James Comer on MSNBC, White House correspondents Kristen Welker and Peter Alexander sounded more like White House press secretaries as they battled Comer on everything from COVID messaging to inflation to President Biden’s economic record.

Bloomberg News just put out a spin piece on the economy that would make professional propagandists blush.

Reacting Wednesday to President Biden’s State of the Union address from the night prior, the broadcast network mornings newscasts on ABC, CBS, and NBC largely decided to play White House stenographers in touting Biden’s “call[s] for unity” and focus “on common ground and not...partisanship.” It resulted, one network said, in cheers that were akin to American unity after 9/11.

If Stephanie Ruhle’s performance tonight is any indication of how she will be when she takes over on the 11th Hour on MSNBC, it is not going to go over well. Shortly after midnight on Wednesday, Ruhle had a mini-meltdown over President Joe Biden not selling his “economic wins.” She worried that if Biden and the Democrats don’t start selling how great the economy is, Democrats will…

Just hours before President Biden’s first State of the Union address on Tuesday, MSNBC anchor Chuck Todd wailed that the “right-wing echo chamber” was to blame for a majority of Americans having a bad view of the Biden economy in multiple polls. He went on to complain to fellow Democratic Party hack Jen Palmieri that the “Democratic echo chamber” needed to do a better job of spreading…

“Under Biden, the U.S. is leading from behind again.” That tweet from MRC President and founder Brent Bozell undercut the core argument of a New York Times piece describing internationally coordinated financial sanctions against Russia as “completely unprecedented,” and their potential impacts as “devastating.”

Appearing on CNN's New Day on Tuesday morning, former Bush speechwriter David Frum advised Biden to stress two things in his SOTU tonight. First, to use the Ukraine situation to take a swipe at Trump's foreign policy. Second, shift the blame for inflation from Biden to Putin, and accuse any politician who mentions inflation of undermining Ukraine!

Fox Business host Stuart Varney highlighted President Joe Biden’s culpability on inflation, and liberal media efforts to shield him from responsibility by shifting blame to the Russia-Ukraine war.

Bloomberg News co-founder Matthew Winkler is twisting numbers again to try to make leftists look like economic wizards. This time, he went to bat for Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) who imposed tyrannical COVID-19 shutdown policies on her constituents.

Wednesday’s White House press briefing wasn’t smooth sailing for Press Secretary Jen Psaki and deputy national security adviser Daleep Singh with tough questions ahead of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, so it was only natural they came back Thursday and faced  hardballs on Biden’s messaging flip-flop on use of sanctions and the refusal to apply them at all to Russian energy industry (perhaps its…

Conservative influencers on Twitter decimated CBS News for attempting to gaslight Americans into believing that skyrocketing U.S. inflation is a result of the ongoing geopolitical crisis in Ukraine.

President Biden’s weakness on the world stage is on full display again as new sanctions on Russia have failed to curb President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. And during Wednesday’s edition of The Lead, CNN host Jake Tapper pressed on this truth and was backed up by OutFront host Erin Burnett, who was reporting from Lviv, Ukraine.
