It’s only hypercritical people like me who think that the Biden administration is doing an utterly terrible job. The reality is, everything is just fine except for a few pesky hoarders who are causing problems.
The mainstream media, POTUS’s Chief of Staff, and White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said so, and we all know they’re both utterly reliable sources.
In reality, grocery store shelves are full. They’re full because they took a page from the script of The Interview, in which two goofy journalists go to North Korea to interview/kill Kim Jong Un. At first, they fall for the propaganda, but then one of the journalists enters the shop that looks to be loaded with abundance only to find out that the food is fake.
After #EmptyShelvesJoe trended on Twitter last week, Zero Hedge reports that retailers got serious about covering the gaps. They pointed out that all over the nation, stores are filling shelves with a single line of the few things they have to make it appear the inventory is full and things are thriving, sharing the following tweets.

Your treadmill will be here next week.
More and more nowadays,
government’s definition of things, and mine, do not match up.
Things like man, woman, vaccine, fully vaccinated, fine, fair, right, selfish, unbiased, objective, freedom,...
It’s sad that someone thought to create pic’s of full shelves rather than see to it their shelves were fully stocked.
One of yours?
And don’t forget “insurrection”
Seeing a picture does not mean it's true.
Believe it or not, there are naughty tricksters on the internets.
Went to Costco today (Indiana) and they were surprisingly well stocked.
The Great Wall of Paper goods was fully loaded, right up to the ceiling.
Pete the Plug, head of the Dept of Transportation, hasn’t even bothered to visit Los Angeles Port. He held an on-line “roundtable” in July, and that’s all the attention he’s given it.
thank you
forgot “riot”, mom, dad, patriot, extremist
i can’t make an exhaustive list :)
My Walmart visit today went surprisingly well.
They were not well stocked, but at least they had everything on my list—an improvement over the last month or two.
Life starts to get interesting when you need more specialized parts or orders—I just had one vendor say “it will only be a couple of months” and I said “you sure you don’t want to just promise a spring delivery” and the guy cracked up...
We agreed “it will be here when it gets here...”
Yeah I’ve waited two months for some auto parts that used to be on the shelf and arrived the next day. Feel sorry for anybody who is doing it for a living these days. You’d run out of room to park the cars in process waiting for parts. “Yes Ma’am we’ll get your minivan back to you by Christmas...maybe.”
Look, this is political rope-a-dope. Are there some shortages? Yes. But it’s just not that bad. Media are purposely trying to panic the populace while the biden regime claims all is well.
According to Jen Psaki, it is the fault of the peasants, who keep buying food, drink, and means of warmth when she would prefer that they simply die.
I went to a local grocery store this morning. Shelves were fully stocked. No meat shortages.
I did notice prices on some items have not increased, but some other items have significant increases. Many canned goods have increase 40%.
Of course, if someone yells “snowflake”, the shelves will empty within hours.
It's called "fronting the shelves" and when I worked at #$*&$(#*&$) in the '70s we did it every night to make the store look nice and organized when we opened in the morning.
And we're not all the idiots that they wish we were, or that they think we are.
We just ordered and got my new snow tires.
I don’t want them on the car until the snow is ready to fly. I have a feeling that they are going to need to last a long time and the less mileage on them each winter, the better.
That and the fact that tire prices have gone crazy. I can’t believe how much they have gone up in the last year.
Yet.
It doesn't hit all at once, unless of course, someone locks down the country for two weeks and people suddenly get the about to be hit by a train look when they realize they only have a couple days worth of food in their house.
I went shopping that fateful Friday, March 13 and shelves were indeed stripped bare of the basics and they were no replenished for a long time.
I had been prepping before that but I figured it wouldn't hurt to top off a few items.
Fortunately, there are a couple stores that hardly anybody even thinks of shopping at, so I went there and their shelves were full of the stuff the local Wegmans was out of.
