The Biden-Harris administration on Monday opened an investigation into retailers, and not itself, to scrutinize the supply chain crisis.
The probe is a repeated strategy from November when the administration opened a Department of Justice probe into oil companies for allegedly “gouging people.” The investigations into private companies is an Obama-era tactic deployed to displace blame on failed administrative policies to the private sector.

Biden is a meat puppet.
Biden’s puppeteers are communists.
If I had to guess this investigation is intended to shift the blame and use it to seize more control over commerce.
See post 17. “Wrecking” was an umbrella term the soviets used during their show trials, particularly during “the Great Purge”.
Benito Biden will get the trucks to run on time or else!
That term was mentioned prominently by Solzhenitsyn, as a false label used by Cheka and its successor agencies to accuse their targets of ‘sabotaging’ the system.
FBI don’t mind
That makes sense because we all know that the last thing retailers want to do is sell products. Sometimes it’s hard to tell if it’s Brandon’s senility or if he is just naturally a weapons grade idiot. Or both.
Why not blame the victim of the supply chain problem? They’ve already tried blaming consumers. Surely the retail outlets who are just waiting on the goods to arrive just aren’t trying hard enough.
I am curious.
What possible laws could retailers have violated in regards to the ‘supply chain?’
~~~
Is Biden trying to sound low IQ on purpose now?
Retailers are at the END of the supply chain (unless you count the retail consumer). The only way the retailers themselves could be culpable in shortages or bare shelves would be if they are intentionally under-ordering. It would take a moron or a conspiracy theorist to actually believe that the stores don’t want to sell more products.
He knows all about the supply chain, he drove an 18 wheeler.
Hey Joe pull your head out, your brain needs some air (not like that will really help your dementia).
Typical communist approach, blame everybody but the bureaucrats in power.
Attack the symptoms and not the underlying disease. The underlying disease is the reintroduction of onerous regulations that force truck drivers out of the cabs and choking off the supply of diesel fuel to run the trucks that haul the freight.
The supply chains were working perfectly well, right up until the time Joe Stolen and “Que mala” Harris assumed office. Then almost like magic. the anti-Midas touch turned everything to - fecal matter.
don’t you know? empty shelves sell really well. it’s easy to crack your monthly nut when you sell out all that emptiness.
Price gouging during a disaster?
Walter E Williams
“Price gouging is legally defined as charging 10 to 25 percent more for something than you charged for it during the month before an emergency. Sellers convicted of price gouging face prison terms and fines.“
Shocking as it may sound, Biden has been president for less than a year.
I know it seems so much longer...
I think the guy who mentioned kulaks has it.
Biden’s puppeteers want to divert blame and seize control over commercial outlets. It is the classic the “create a crisis and exploit it.”
I’m pretty sure the big boys like Wal-Mart have started shipping their west coast product to non-California ports. A good strategy would be to load some ships with California only product and send those to LA, SD, and SF. Product destined for non-CA states would be shipped to OR and WA.

What could possibly go wrong.
Attacking from all fronts
