    Another month of controlled inflation

    Yeah I know. For the past 4 years these Maga idiots were calling for deflation. Trump promised lower prices on day 1. 7 months in and we're cheering controlled inflation.

    Home prices are largely influenced by supply and demand. If we were building new homes while demand was strong, you could see prices go down slightly without much concern. But housing starts are near a 5 year low, so it would be more likely the result of lower demand which is not good for the economy.

    Beef and chicken primarily I've noticed. Prok ribs have been stable.

    Wrong again. I'm rooting for prosperity. If Trump taco's everything and brings prosperity to all, I will eat crow. I'm assuming that won't happen.

    Housing isn't down. Don't listen to that idiot. Housing was up .2% in July. Source: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/housing-inflation-is-easing-but-its-still-the-biggest-factor-driving-prices-higher-143440415.html Rent and owner’s equivalent rent, which estimates how much a homeowner would pay to rent an equivalent property, each jumped 0.3% last month from June. Lodging away from home, which includes spending on things like hotels, dropped 1% — one of the few major categories to see a decline. hotels and rentals dropped because of low travel. All in, shelter costs rose 3.7% in the last year. The rate of housing inflation is decelerating — July’s annual increase was the smallest jump since October 2021 — but continues to be hotter than broad inflation. Across all items, prices were up 2.7% annually and 3.1% after stripping out volatile food and energy costs.

    Core inflation 3.1%, likely from tariffs. Oil at $63 is not good for domestic production but it's keeping the inflation number low. Lower oil caused by higher OPEC production and a lower demand globally which means slowing growth. I don't get calling food flat with the spikes in beef, coffee, and other stuff as well.
  8. Trump's new guy? A Trump lackey who is also a buffoon. The data can't be trusted anymore. Antoni is the chief economist at the Heritage Foundation. He has been a relentless booster of Trump’s policies on social media. And he has demonstrated time and again that he does not understand economic statistics. https://www.nationalreview.com/the-morning-jolt/trump-wants-a-bureau-of-maga-statistics/

    Trump and the National Guard Thread

    Trump is a master manipulator. They have no idea they are being used.

    Also reading the report, it's odd. Food is flat? Seriously? Anyone buy meat recently? After the BLS firing and calls for fake numbers and given Trump's history of lying and faking everything, I would not be surprised at all if these numbers he's putting out are actually fake.

    You voted for this, not me. Bad karma day will come and I'll be here reminding you and everyone who supported this president and his tariffs.

  14. Where does he say trump offered the national guard to pelosi but she refused?
  15. This is a lie that has been proven false multiple times Nancy Pelosi did not reject National Guard troops on Jan. 6 CLAIM: Calling the Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6th Attack on the United States Capitol the “Unselect Committee of political thugs,” Trump alleged that then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “turned down the offer of 10,000 soldiers” on Jan. 6, 2021 and that she was “in charge of security at the Capitol.” — remarks at Emancipation Hall. THE FACTS: Trump has frequently claimed Pelosi rejected his offer to send National Guard troops to the Capitol on Jan. 6. While he was involved in discussions in the days prior to Jan. 6 about whether the National Guard would be called ahead of the joint session, he issued no such order or formal request before or during the rioting, and the guard’s arrival was delayed for hours as Pentagon officials deliberated over how to proceed. In a 2022 interview with the Democratic-led House committee that investigated the attack, Christopher Miller, the acting defense secretary at that time, confirmed that there was no order from the president. Pelosi did not direct the National Guard. However, as the Capitol came under attack, she and then-Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell called for military assistance, including from the National Guard. The Capitol Police Board makes the decision on whether to call National Guard troops to the Capitol. It is made up of the House Sergeant at Arms, the Senate Sergeant at Arms and the Architect of the Capitol. The board decided not to call the guard ahead of the insurrection but did eventually request assistance after the rioting had already begun, and the troops arrived several hours later. The House Sergeant at Arms reported to Pelosi and the Senate Sergeant at Arms reported to McConnell. There is no evidence that either Pelosi or McConnell directed the security officials not to call the guard beforehand. Drew Hammill, a then-spokesperson for Pelosi, said after the insurrection that Pelosi was never informed of such a request. https://apnews.com/article/trump-inauguration-fact-check-b920161868e192d0430df534a42ea5ce To even further remark on his lies and dementia, he blamed the whole thing on Nikki Haley
