WASHINGTON — Republicans on Tuesday slammed President Biden for throwing an “inflation reduction” celebration at the White House, even though annual inflation remains highly elevated at 8.3%.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) chastised Biden ahead of the lawn party after the release of data from August showed a drop in gasoline prices offset by continued 12-month jumps in the cost of food (13.5%), electricity (15.8%), rent (6.8%) and health insurance (24.3%).

It’s like watching a football game where one team are corrupt criminals and the other (GOP) a bunch of Benny Hill characters running around in circles.

The democrats and Biden have given the gop all the ammo they need to be the majority for the next 100 years.
Where is the offense? Why are dems on offense? Put them on defense, and make them answer for the bad economy.
Wonder how elitist Democrat lawyers would respond to a 0.02% raise in their salary? Typical for democrats to not understand or pretend to understand SCOPE.
so we are celebrating inflation now?
my celebration will be bare bones
cuz i got no money!
a globetrotters game comes to mind
Joe craps his pants and does a victory dance.

We have always been at war with Eastasia.
Some were speculating that the Biden administration took a peek ahead of time at today’s inflation numbers, and that was why they planned their Inflation Reduction Act party for today. So either they didn’t know the numbers, or they didn’t gauge the reaction to them properly.
Even worse, they tweeted.
Biden is stark raving mad.
And the refs cheat for the criminals and the press ignores the few touchdowns the witless losers score. Then theres the head coach Mitch McConnell who deliberately calls bad plays and asks for penalties against his own team.
Politicians - throwing a big party (at taxpayer expense)… because they passed a bill…
We are way passed “banana republic’.
House democrats putting foot down with Manchin's permitting provisions deal
Played for a fool, is a fool, trying to fool voters, pick one or even all three...
