Leftards lie and love to be lied to. Yellen has an ostensible stellar resume and yet she (like Fow Chee who actually has a sh*tty resume) is willing to trash her reputation to support the lies of a democrat/socialist dementia patient. Yellen has to know that Milton Friedman will always be in charge and that just printing trillions of dollars will always lead to inflation. And yet, she is telling us that the world is flat and that she has repealed gravity.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said over the weekend that we’re going to have to “put up with inflation for a while longer,” which means that she has now held just about every possible — and almost always wrong — position on an issue about which she is supposedly an expert. Is it any wonder nobody trusts elites anymore?
Yellen was on CNBC over the weekend and, when asked whether inflation had peaked, said:
“Well, it may have peaked, but … I think the shocks emanating from this unjustified attack on Ukraine will prolong inflationary pressures. So, the outlook is uncertain. As you know, the Fed is taking steps to bring inflation down, but I think we will have to put up with high inflation for a while longer.”
Let’s leave aside Yellen’s dubious claim that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has had any meaningful impact on inflation. Why would it? Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait, which was far more disruptive to the global oil market, bumped oil prices up for a short period but had no broader inflationary effect.
The Putin-is-to-blame for skyrocketing prices is one of team Biden’s big lies meant to deflect blame. But the press never calls them on it.
No, what’s really troubling is the fact that Biden’s Treasury secretary has been so utterly clueless about inflation since joining his cabinet.
Let’s look at what Yellen has claimed about inflation since early last year and the actual results. The chart shows what inflation was doing when she made these statements.
Sending your kids to public school and voting for more money for woke administrators is child abuse. Geezus. I thought the left supported the teaching of the history of slavery which definitely included cotton.
TAR, FEATHERS: Teacher forced to apologize for bringing in cotton plants during lesson on slavery.
A San Francisco history teacher allegedly was suspended and then forced to apologize for bringing in cotton plants for a lesson on slavery and the cotton gin.
Last month, the Creative Arts Charter School teacher had brought in the plants, called “bolls,” to show “the sharp edges that had pierced hands while picking cotton and pulling out the seeds,” the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
It took less than a day for the school to begin an investigation into the teacher and the lesson.
Although school officials “declined to confirm” what specific actions were taken, the teacher was absent for five weeks following the lesson. Upon her return just nine days ago, she issued a written apology to school families.
The apology noted the lesson was “sourced from reliable sources” (the report indicates it is “widely available online”) and was “an effort to get the students to understand the difficulty of manually processing cotton prior to the invention of Eli Whitney’s Cotton Gin.”
But, the teacher added, “I realize that this lesson was not culturally responsive and had the potential to cause harm.”

But on the evening of the vote, French public television channel France 2, part of the state-owned France Télévisions group, displayed incorrect provisional voting figures during its live coverage, attributing 14.2 million votes to Macron and 14.4 million to Le Pen." — Reuters "However, the issue appeared to be specific to France 2, which said it temporarily presented incorrect results due to a technical error.

So the French took lessons from DIMS. Nice. Trump had vote totals change on live TV too. Be there was something, something, something so nothing to see.
Everyone knows that hurricanes are getting much stronger and much more prevalent due to CO2 emissions. Like everyone "knows" this. I heard it on the news so it must be true.
Has she been fired yet or is Elon giving her gentle shoves in the back towards the exit of her choice?
Deal has to go through, then re-elect a new board who appoints a new CEO. Plus Elon has to go through his due diligence review and who know how phucked up the actual financials are.
Don't turn around, wa-uh-oh (yeah-yeah) Der Kommissar's in town, wa-uh-oh You're in his eye and you'll know why The more you live, the faster you will die

Biden Administration Creates "Disinformation Governance Board" Under Department Of Homeland Security to Fight "Homeland Security," Citing Zero Legislative or Constitutional Authority —Ace The Department tasked with internal national security enforcement in the United States has now been additionally charged with patrolling the speech of Americans for speech the US government deems threatening or unhelpful to its narratives.
Everyone have that? The Kommissars of the Internal State Security Police will now be inspecting your writings and utterings.
There's so much fascism around we're gonna have to use a whole lot of fascism to fight all of this fascism.
And this just so happens to have been announced the day after a monopoly which had been under firm control of the US government went rogue when it was bought by a dissident free speech champion.
The Department of Homeland Security is setting up a new board designed to counter misinformation related to homeland security, with a focus specifically on Russia and irregular migration. The board will be called the "Disinformation Governance Board," and will be headed by executive director Nina Jankowicz. They say the focus is "specifically" on Russia but there's nothing limiting them to Russia. "Russian Disinformation" has been used as a pretext to ban everything.
They started by banning Alex Jones, claiming that he would be the only one.
"Russian disinformation," like "hate speech," covers exactly as much ground as The Regime wants it to.
We've seen this playbook run before.
And-- "irregular migration"?
Does that mean they're going to "fight disinformation" related to people complaining about open borders, which they're going to euphemize as "irregular migration"?
So we won't be able to say "open borders" any longer? Or illegal aliens?
Whoa, we just took a huge step away from "specifically [about] Russia" huh?
Speaking with the House Appropriations DHS Subcommittee on Wednesday afternoon, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said, "Our Undersecretary for Policy, Rob Silvers is co-chair with our Principal Deputy General Counsel, Jennifer Gaskell, in leading a just recently constituted misinformation disinformation governance board. So we're bringing -- the goal is to bring the resources of the department together to address this threat."

Probably the most impactful thing Inslee has ever done about 'climate change' is fly to a conference about it in Scotland.
