Tucker: Our leader are telling us 'shut up and obey'

now that the president is in orange the economy's in great shape that is the unified message from basically everyone the new york times the chairman of the federal reserve told us that the other day with joe biden in office things are about to explode in a good way and we certainly hope that's true of course but how are people doing right now well one way to measure that probably the way that matters most is what does it cost to buy things the things that you need is inflation real are you paying more for gas for example or groceries than you were a year ago how about a month ago well we can measure that in a real way according to the bureau of labor statistics consumer prices rose in march at the fastest pace in nine years the new york times told us don't be misled it's not real inflation's not real but here are the numbers gasoline prices rose over nine percent in a single month depending on where you live gas may have risen even more in washington dc for example the average price of gas last year was and sixteen cents a gallon right now it's over three bucks a gallon that's 40 percent in one year and it's not just gas oil markets are obviously very complex everything has gotten more expensive pretty much the price of eggs increased increased by almost five percent major appliances by almost 15 percent fresh fruit 5.6 percent ground beef five and a half percent propane kerosene firewood 16 to heat your house also up 16 is the median sales price of existing homes in some places it's up hundreds of percent there's also been a massive increase in the selling prices from domestic production of goods things like softwood lumber that increased by 83.2 percent compared to this time last year 83 for dimensional lumber softwood spruce two by fours what are we out of trees we might be ply would increase by 53 percent so the question is what does this mean for you well did your income go up 83 last year probably not it means you have a lot less money your costs increase your income doesn't it becomes much more expensive to live but again according to new york times don't worry about it one of their headlines recently warned readers to quote not get fooled by the new inflation numbers because that's what looking backward it's inflation nonsense it'll disappear after the pandemic again we hope that's true other news outlets are bold enough to admit yes there's inflation but not because of joe biden or his spending trillions of dollars per bill no you know what it is it's climate change it's climate change just doing it so either inflation isn't real and you're a right-wing kook for thinking it is nine dollars for a two by four it's always been nine dollars or it tells you you don't believe in climate change or it tells you just shut up and obey and that tells you everything their response again nothing to see here we hope they're right

Because we had a fraudulent election! We have a fraudulent compromised president. The country has been taken over. Nobody seems to be acknowledging the fact!

They may be saying shut up and obey but we're saying fuck around and find out.
