It Sure Looks Like Joe Biden Paid Off the Cookie Monster to Push White House Talking Points

The scandal of the century is unfolding at this very moment, leaving political onlookers wondering: Did Joe Biden collude with the Cookie Monster?

I know it seems like I'm joking, but only half so. There's reason to believe that the President of the United States improperly gave money to "Sesame Street" only for the show's characters to begin repeating White House talking points.

Here's the post that started all this.

Cookie Monster @MeCookieMonster

Me hate shrinkflation! Me cookies are getting smaller.

Sesame Street’s foray into the "shrinkflation" debate could raise questions about whether the White House and Sesame Street coordinated to push talking points to help Biden. Democrats have increasingly criticized corporations for "shrinkflation" in an effort to shift blame for rising prices off the president. According to a recent CBS News poll, 55 percent of voters say they believe Biden’s policies will contribute more to inflation, while only 17 percent expect the Democrat’s policies to slow inflation.

Leaders of Sesame Workshop, the organization behind Sesame Street, would certainly like to see Biden stymie concerns about inflation. In Biden’s three years in office, federal agencies have awarded $23 million to Sesame Workshop, federal spending records show. Agencies gave just $8 million to the nonprofit during the Trump years.

Uh, mentioning Biden and Sesame Street in the same story seems to be just a bit, how to put it, disturbing.

The shrinkflation started with Barry the Muslim in his first year of his destructive jihad on America. A half gallon of Ice Cream was 60 ounces within 6 months of his term.

I don’t see how shrinkflation is a Biden talking point... the inflation is his fault... corporations have always responded to inflation by shrinking portions.

This is just the expected expansion and creativeness of Operation Mockingbird. They’ve come a LONG WAY since WW2, and the 1974 Frank Church committee...

Congress: Do.... you....have... any.... PEOPLE, paid by the CIA, on Sesame Street?

CIA: Ummm, mr Chairman, I think that gets into information that we should cover under Executive Session.

Maybe Biden promised Cookie Monster he wouldn’t force him to shower with him, or maybe he promised Miss Piggy

Brought to you by the Democrats’ Television Workshop.
And by PBS.
But most importantly, by taxpayers like you.

When I hear “cookie monster” I think of Victoria Nuland, but then she’s been collaborating with the neocons and dems for decades.
