GDS swallowed it all and can no longer speak.WestlinnDuck said: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 And yet, she is telling us that the world is flat and that she has repealed gravity.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.” -
"President Emmanuel Macron defeated his far-right rival Marine Le Pen comfortably in the presidential election on April 24.
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.

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.
