FactPost…CNBC…Lib Wants You To Believe That Grocery Prices Have Already Increased By 150 Percent…LOL

Posted • April 4, 2025: There has been a lot of conversation on X in the past 24 hours regarding tariffs. Apparently, everyone who was once a COVID expert, then a Ukraine expert, then an immigration expert, then a military expert has now turned in those credentials to display their shiny new X University diplomas in international trade and economics. Trump's announcement yesterday of his plan to impose tariffs on several nations caused a social media firestorm for sure, but maybe the most sober and reasoned reaction to the policy came from Jesse Kelly today: “There are actually a lot of really great arguments on both sides of the tariff debate and none of them matter because it either works or it doesn’t work and we won’t know for a while.” —— All of this is true, but with one important caveat. There are good arguments for and against Trump's policy from conservatives and independents. If you look on the left side of politics, all you are going to get is screeching and gaslighting.

Case in point: the tweet below from FactPost, the DNC-run account that used to be known as 'KamalaHQ' (that still makes us giggle). Apparently, Trump's tariff announcement has caused grocery prices to increase by 150 percent … in less than a week! —— FactPost @factpostnews: “NJ consumer: The prices are ridiculous now. Literally last week I paid $30, now it's $75 for the same amount of groceries.” —— LOL. As the kids say these days, 'Huge, if true!' Of course, it is not at all true. Not even a little bit. And we can't blame FactPost completely for this egregious and obvious lie. After all, CNBC actually aired this ridiculous clip from a ridiculous person. But FactPost desperately wants people to believe it. 'FactPost' is the ironic name of the Twitter account run by the DNC, that used to be called 'Kamala HQ' (and 'Biden HQ' before that, until Obama, Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi threw Biden out of a window). Suffice it to say, no one was buying what FactPost was selling. Not at ANY price. (…)
