Economy

MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle spent Tuesday’s edition of The 11th Hour lamenting that voters aren’t buying the White House’s spin on the economy from blaming Vladimir Putin for inflation to arguing that things actually aren’t all that bad.

On Tuesday morning the Labor Department reported that inflation has risen at the fastest pace since 1981, soaring to 8.5 percent year over year. But it appears for now that the media is done letting President Biden get away with blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin for the devastating increase in prices. More evidence of this was during a report on NBC Nightly News where chief…

Moments after the release of March’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) showing 8.5 percent inflation and a 1.2 percent rise from February, MSNBC’s 11th Hour host and unofficial Team Biden cheerleader Stephanie Ruhle was left to be the bearer of bad news (as NBC’s chief economic analyst) for her fellow liberals on the cast of MSNBC’s Morning Joe.

On Tuesday’s CNN Newsroom, viewers were exposed to some truthful commentary on the state of the nation’s economy, which was something CNN viewers are unaccustomed to. Taking her cue from some of her colleagues on other networks, Washington Post columnist and CNN analyst Catherine Rampell admitted that inflation has been rising long before Russia invaded Ukraine, and rising…

CNBC senior analyst and commentator Ron Insana traveled over to MSNBC’s Hallie Jackson Reports on Tuesday to discuss the day’s inflation figures, which are the worst in over 40 years, and to affirm the White House’s talking points that Vladimir Putin is largely to blame.

The Rev. Al Sharpton targeted the liberal elite in a fiery anti-woke sermon on inflation. Sharpton pummeled woke elitists during his appearance on the April 11 edition of MSNBC’s Morning Joe. The topic was the Democratic outlook for the 2022 midterms (Spoiler alert: it was not good).

The NBC, CBS and ABC morning news shows largely ignored a new inflation report that showed inflation raging at 8.5 percent. That was the highest increase since 1981 — the same year Raiders of the Lost Ark hit the box office.

A leftist magazine co-founded by former President Bill Clinton's Secretary of Labor Robert Reich urged the federal government to seize control of the fossil fuel industry. Because…climate change.

In a stunningly economically illiterate opinion piece in The Washington Post, columnist Catherine Rampell argues that President Joe Biden can solve rampant inflation by letting more immigrants into the United States. 

Tesla CEO Elon Musk declined a seat on Twitter’s board of directors after becoming the platform’s largest shareholder with a massive 9.2 percent stake. But this move could end up signifying an even greater play by Musk to seize control of the platform, according to CNBC.

The director of former President Barack Obama’s National Economic Council landed some solid punches and dished out some harsh warnings for the Federal Reserve in a recent Washington Post op-ed.  

Washington Post opinion columnist Jennifer Rubin absurdly claimed that “Biden’s economic record is extraordinary, but it is marred by inflation.” That’s like pretending an athlete is healthy except for the fact that they’re “marred” by a torn ACL and a broken wrist.

On Monday, The Blaze’s Carlos Garcia reported on how “Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin was hammered on social media for giving a defense of the economy under President Joe Biden in her newest column.” He noted her laughable claim “that if inflation were not a factor that Biden’s ‘economic performance’ would be ‘unmatched.’”

Billionaire and Tesla CEO Elon Musk slammed woke corporate policies as “the Devil Incarnate” on Twitter. Is the world’s richest man, worth $298 billion according to Forbes, totally based now?
