I do not expect White House Spokesperson Jennifer Psaki to understand how her bosses policies are driving massive price increases; nor do I expect Psaki to understand economics and inflationary impacts. However, the scale of her false statements surrounding inflation are not just false, they are now dangerous.
Following the release of the consumer price index [SEE table 2], in her press briefing today, Jen Psaki outlined the White House perspective on inflation, and specifically the Fed claims surrounding “transitory inflation.”
In her statements today, Psaki referenced people comparing the prices of 2021 consumable goods to 2020 and 2019. [Video prompted below] Within the statements, the scale of falsity is off the charts. WATCH [Video at 19:00 to 22:42, prompted]
There is not one single thing about that three minute verbal exchange that is accurate. Fast turn consumable goods, groceries etc., did not drop in 2020 during the first year of the pandemic. Factually, all goods but especially consumable goods increased in price throughout the pandemic, because demand actually increased and the supply chains were unable to keep up.
Example. A loaf of bread at $2.50 in 2019, climbed to $3.00 in 2020. That price jumped again to $3.75 this year (2021) and will likely continue rising as monetary policy driven inflation continues devaluing our currency.
Even if, as Psaki claims, inflation slows down (not likely) – “decelerating inflation” does not mean declining prices; it means a slower rate of price increase. Stuff still costs more, it just costs more at a slower rate. Consumable goods will cost more in 2022 than they do this year. The 2022 loaf of bread likely to climb to $4.00; it will never return to the 2019 price of $2.50 because the dollar is worth less.

It is amazing that people so wrong about everything have survived into adulthood.
Daily Lies Briefing with Commie Pink Hat Psaki
It would have been correct.
She’s not wrong. She’s lying. Big difference.
She needs a MUTE button like Obama
“decelerating inflation”
They also call it transitory inflation. Everything will come back to normal in no time.
Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve keeps printing $100 billion per month.
The Democrats are running out of crazy talk
They are scared of transitory deflation. Oh wait, they never used that term did th3y?
“It is amazing that people so wrong about everything have survived into adulthood”
In Jenger Goebbels case, she was just wise enough to invest in kneepads at an early age.
Let’s go Brandon.
She figures by the time we’re all suffering the worst, she will have moved on. Not her problem anymore.
The Democrats have so many pathological liars that she will turn into a minor footnote soon enough...
Consider her point of view. Slow Joe won’t be in office, nor will Kamala, in a few years. It will be someone like Trump who will fix this mess. So yeah, not permanent. Transitory.
(Tongue firmly in cheek)
Some left wing (MSM) channel will pick her up like they did Steffi (Stephanopoulos)
Psucky. Let’s Go Brandon!!!!
have to say, it sure looks like Biden/Harris have set off a serious new round of inflation, one that shows every sign of intensifying... not just quitting quickly with a tiny little whimper
the plan is clearly to grind people down as far as possible
and to wreck USA economically
