Grocery prices jumped more in April than they did in nearly four years

This is so f****** frightening.

Jd Vance invested in AcreTrader... All he wants is farms to fail.

Large scale family farms make over 400k a year in the usa.

He was gleeful about it.

Yeah. They just say whatever they want in press conferences and on cable news. There's no reason to be honest. MAGA eats up whatever they say. Then if anything goes to court of they have to be under oath and tell the truth , they just don't report on it so they never know.

he's not lying tho he genuinely doesn't give a f*** about Americans

My truck fill up is above the 150 limit on my gas card so I have to swipe, put 150 in, hang it up, swipe, and then top off with another 25-40 bucks. It f****** hurts.

Trump doubled the amount of money in your tank 👍

It’s going to get worse. Sorry.

I miss $6 gal diesel from 2 months ago in CA

As someone on disability and in public housing while being financially poorer every day as I burn through the last of my disability back pay soon thanks to COLA adjustments not even attempting to keep up with inflation and food prices getting more insane every week and Medicaid now requiring prescription copays for some prescriptions.....this is NOT fun..

Don’t forget the effects of not having fertilizer supplies (due, of course, to the blockade) during the crucial spring planting season. Unless something drastic happens, we’re looking at a really, really scary year.

Gimme some hope here, Fam. Or should I go find a bridge now?

the problem we face is that the media as a whole is lying about all of in and is minimizing the impending collapse, so when shit actually comes true and the cheeto disaster finally hits us all, a lot of people are going to be incredibly shocked. it honestly wouldn't surprise me if the plan is for the media to keep lying for as long as they can, let the midterms happen and the democrats win, and then turn around and immediately blame the democrats for the entire world economy shutting off. the collapse might come too quickly though.

They aren't, they have planned well in advance, they don't care about the elections or public opinion (aside from propaganda keeping people misdirected). It's also not like everything will cease to function at once. They will make sure certain things stay running for them while anywhere else is permitted to spiral into chaos. I doubt they want oil to crash, but nobody said they were brilliant either. They basically have plenty of tools and money to hide away in their bunkers while they use force to quell riots local to them, everyone else will suffer and be forced to work for little to nothing. At minimum it will be worse than Russia right now, at worst it will be martial law/Nazi Germany/ Great Depression.  That's how they intend to subdue the country into servitude. Tank the US dollar while they stock in BTC (which they will make people use for goods), declare martial law, force people into poverty and make them submit to monitoring, throw anyone who doesn't comply into their new camps, and hide in their bunkers while the rest of the country descends into chaos. Whether you believe in the bible or not, they do, and it's what they are following. And it's eerie seeing this go on, but Hitler pretty much did this, and we've been warned since the last 2 world wars. After looking at the bigger picture, it's plain to see what is happening. Russia and China also intend to claim their territorial ambitions next year (2027) so there's a massive geopolitical storm on the horizon. This isn't a joke or a wild guess, this is real historical and geopolitical/ economic analysis.

Ok, fair enough. I’ll take that as a check on my own biases against them.

It's hard to say, less people are buying seafood in my market for sure though. I'm probably a bad metric for that as I cater to mostly geriatric white folk who are retired, and they tend to only want beef, chicken, or pork. It's also hard to judge sales, because my sales are up a bit, but that's from the inflated costs. I'd say in the whole store though, our items per customers are down, and our sales are either barely over prior years, or right under. We walk a fine line there.

>They kept telling me Idc if this joke get's said a million times: Republicans told me that if I voted for Kamala, that we'd go to war with Iran, Gas Prices would skyrocket, and everything would get more expensive. Well I voted for Kamala in 2024 and look, here's Trump's regime making all of that a reality. The prophecy has been fulfilled! /s

so tired of that framing. The destruction of education as both a system and a virtue in this country has really enabled all of this. Everything seems like arbitrary opinions I guess if you lack critical thinking. I’ve had people tell me evolution is an opinion before…I’m a PhD biologist, lol. But go on, sure, tell me how life works. You must have listened to a really compelling podcast. Joe Rogan?

A difference in politics is "Turd sandwich wants to focus on child education and giant d***** wants to focus on the environment". What we had in 2024 was "the rapist conman felon who is currently being prosecuted for more felonies wants to focus on staying out of jail, getting revenge on those who slighted him, and enriching himself through corruption vs Kamala Harris is a black woman with a weird laugh."

How many beltway and legacy pundits or centrist politicians chased "polarization" as one of America's top issues? How many treated Democrats as the only ones with agency to solve "polarization"?

And the same brain damage as my dad — they’re even in complete denial Trump’s in the Epstein files

Still not as bad as a TaN sUiT!
