Bidenflation Bites American Families

America got more bad news on the economy today. Wholesale prices rose last month at a record pace! They jumped 0.8% last month alone, and they're up 9.6% over the past year. Inflation is running much hotter than economists had expected.

But just like the record surges in crime rates and illegal immigration, this record is not good for America. It's devastating to small businesses, working-class families and seniors on fixed incomes.

Today's shocking report on the latest inflation figures should be the nail in the coffin for Biden's "Build Back Better Act," which should be called the "Make America Worse Act." 

The bill is a massive socialist spending spree, and the last thing you should be doing in the middle of out-of-control inflation is spending trillions more. But that's exactly what Biden and congressional Democrats are trying to do. 

They want to ram through a huge progressive wish list that the Congressional Budget Office estimates will cost $5 trillion over the next ten years. 

Biden said that his plan was paid for and would cost "zero." Well, the last time I checked, $5 trillion had 12 zeroes -- $5,000,000,000,000. That's an awful lot of extra zeroes for something that supposedly cost just one! And it's a lot closer to the $6 trillion that socialist Bernie Sanders initially demanded.

This bill is a massive bait and switch! The budget gimmicks Democrats are using to disguise the real costs are beyond ludicrous. But they're not backing off. Chuck Schumer is plowing ahead, and the pressure on Sen. Joe Manchin is building.

In fact, today's Washington Post has a front-page story going after Joe Manchin's ethics. This story is a warning shot across the bow of Manchin's houseboat! 

The Post has been singularly uninterested in Hunter Biden's ethics. But it's going to dig deep into the finances of the senator from West Virginia who is standing in the way of the left's dream to "fundamentally transform America."
