President Biden said the United States "has never seen anything like Putin’s tax on both food and gas," after the Labor Department announced Friday that inflation hit a new four-decade high in May.
The Labor Department said Friday that the consumer price index, a broad measure of the price for everyday goods, including gasoline, groceries and rent, rose 8.6% in May from a year ago. Prices jumped 1% in the one-month period from April. Those figures were both higher than the 8.3% headline figure and 0.7% monthly gain forecast by Refinitiv economists.
The president, from the Port of Los Angeles Friday, said fighting inflation is his "top economic priority," while, again, casting blame on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine for the surge in prices.

No one believes Biden any more ,LOL
To: McGruff
Putin has nothing to do with it. Look in the mirror Biden and at all those Executive Orders where you killed the Trump energy program. That is why why we have what we have!!

Looking at the keywords, it appears the Ukraine shills side with Biden.

Funny how Putin never taxed our food and gas when Trump was president.
I wonder why that was.
Maybe Putin was afraid of Trump. And maybe Trump did nothing to make matters worse.

You mistyped a letter, I think. Here:
Putin is not President of America.
Putin is not ruining America.

Putin’s tax? Boy, is he trying to bamboozle us. But it won’t work.
To: SmokingJoe
But in world wide poll: Biden 10%, Putin 90%.
