G.O.P. tariffs, deportations, climate change making groceries expensive [View all]

Tell me about it. Supermarket prices are getting to the wallet-smacking level since Krasnov (R-felon/golf cheat) and his Elite Kronies took over. The republicons lied to us about grocery prices. They lied to us about all prices. They are BEARING FALSE WITNESS and will undoubtedly roast in Hell for all Eternity for their deceitful ways. right?

Let's don't talk about the price of coffee, and what the elite republicons have done to that

"New York - President Donald Trump pledged to bring down grocery costs. But his administration’s policies are contributing to an acceleration in prices, food economists and companies say.

"Grocery prices last month rose at their fastest pace in three years, stoked by Trump’s tariffs, a crackdown on immigration, and extreme weather hurting food production. Prices jumped 0.6% in August from the month prior, according to the latest reading from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and they are up 2.7% from a year ago.
