Bidenflation Is Crushing Americans

  • Angry Joe
In June, the Consumer Price Index (CPI)showed that Bidenflation remains a tax on all Americans, and it isn’t going away anytime soon. Since taking office, inflation has risen by20.1%. Americans are paying 30.5% more for baby food and formula, 21.3% more for groceries, and 14.7% more for hospital services. While Americans are paying more for just about everything, they are also making less as wages fail to keep pace with skyrocketing Bidenflation.

MAKE NO MISTAKE:Joe Biden and Far Left Democrats’ out of control government spending is what has caused Bidenflation. Since taking control of Congress, House Republicans have fought to rein in their reckless spending and restore fiscal responsibility to Washington D.C.
