Biden Admin Warns UK Government NOT to Cut Taxes
Frontpage Mag ^ | 09/29/2022 | Daniel Greenfield

It’s good to remember that the Biden administration isn’t just trying to run America into the ground. Like the Obama administration, it’s also trying to run the world into the ground.

And like Obama, Biden’s regime is hostile to conservative governments and traditional allies like the UK and Israel. Now it’s the UK’s turn in the barrel for cutting taxes instead of raising them.

The Biden administration is alarmed over the market turmoil triggered by the new UK government’s economic program and is seeking ways to encourage Prime Minister Liz Truss’s team to dial back its dramatic tax cuts.

Why can’t the UK be more like Biden and spend billions to audit Americans to pay for electric car subsidies and MA student loan giveaways while hammering the country with interest rate hikes to raise unemployment, cause a recession and wreck the housing market? Why?

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen declined to directly address UK policies when speaking with reporters Tuesday. But her cabinet colleague, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, was candid on Wednesday in describing Truss’s approach as misguided.

“The policy of cutting taxes and simultaneously increasing spending isn’t one that’s going to fight inflation in the short term or put you in good stead for longer-term economic growth,” Raimondo said Wednesday during an event in Washington.

Did anyone in the UK ask the former governor of a tiny corrupt state? Considering her boss’ acumen at fighting inflation, maybe she should shut up?

“Investors, businesspeople want to see world leaders taking inflation very seriously — and it’s hard to see that at this point” in the UK approach, Raimondo said.

Anyone who’s been shopping lately can tell you how seriously the Biden regime takes inflation.

Truss and crew want to cut taxes without cutting the spending. BOE has already had to intervene. Bonds will not be happy.

Partner, we are in agreement.

We just can not believe how out of control the Justice Department and the FBI have gotten.

The bunch in DC sure seem to be working to get the US on everyone’s hate list, aren’t they? And that includes the people of the country they claim to represent.

Says Bidens cabinet which has collectively held an actual job other than government for 1.3 years. So as an average that’s about one month of work experience per member.

The actual analogy is:

UK, EU, US = WEF colonies and servants

WEF/Davos/NWO/UN = Master

I never heard of a government of one country vocally being concerned about another nation’s taxes.
