During an interview with Bloomberg on Friday, acting Labor Secretary Julie Su claimed that “prices are lower than they were a year ago, and significantly so.” And that gas prices “continue to come down.”

Where I buy gas went down from $3.19 to $3.51 a gallon.
BULL CRAP! Gas prices here have gone up $.40 + per gallon over the past 8 weeks.... Heating oil has gone up almost $.30 in the past 4 weeks!
Gas prices were 40 cents a gallon cheaper— two weeks ago.It’s not due to the “seasonal additives” changeover. Cause we aren’t in winter... yet.
“The correct baseline for comparison is 2019.”
I would say 2021 after biden took over.
I was in Kroger the other day and an 18 pack of XL eggs was $1.50, last year it was over $3.
So some prices have retreated.
LIAR! Gas is $3.65 A gallon here in northeast Oklahoma! We’re spending almost twice as much for food as we were under Trump! So tired of the lies!

They continue to count on the sublime ignorance and apathy of the majority of their mind-numbed supporters and constituents. It has worked so well for them in the past. Leftists (Democrats) are not rooted in reality or truth and never have been. Quite the opposite.

Ethanol-free gas at Maverick was $5.15 last time I checked.
A couple of days ago they were interviewing some gov’t official bragging about how gas prices were down when the camera man panned over to a gas station sign to show gas at $5/gallon.
Similar to the case from Canada where a transportation official was bragging about fewer delays when the camera man panned up to a board showing at least half of the flights ‘delayed’. No doubt both camera men were fired.
$.30 here!
Outrageous!
Gas prices here are up. Roughly $3.85/gallon.
Have these people ever been to a real grocery store?
My $40 trip to the grocery store is $75-80 now. And that’s just an intermediate shopping trip.
What planet is Julie living on?
Total lies
Gas here was $3.499 two weeks ago. It’s now $3.999
