Believe nothing and question everything from the government

Sham and paule

So how much has it risen since slo jo took office ? 15 -16%

The US taxpayers funded a $1,700,000,000,000 “Inflation Reduction” bill that did absolutely NOTHING to address inflation.

I heard the GOP has a fantastic plan, since that’s what they ran on. Don’t they? Isn’t that what they are working so hard on?
