A Summary of how various factors have changed under President Joe Biden:
The economy added 13.2 million jobs under Biden, putting the total 3.8 million higher than before the pandemic.
The unemployment rate dropped for a time to the lowest in nearly 54 years; unfilled job openings surged, with over 1.6 for every unemployed job seeker.
Weekly earnings rose briskly, by 12.2%.
The S&P 500 has increased 20.2%
The percentage of Americans without health insurance has gone down by 1.3 percentage points.
Consumer confidence is 6.4 points lower, according to a University of Michigan index, but it has gone up for the past two straight months.
The number of apprehensions of those trying to cross the southern border illegally is up 310%.
U.S. crude oil production has increased 8.2%; imports are up 7.3%
The sad part is you Dims don’t see the economic disaster of inflation that is eating up savings and pay of the middle class. Housing market is about crash and burn because of the high interest rates, more people are backfilling with credit, and those rates are even higher.
Basically Bidenomics is not helping anyone that matters, only the select donor rich who are just sucking off the teat of the rest.
Judge Magney has a good point. Ms. Benson will, apparently, soon be referencing a once-in-a-100 year global pandemic, with all of its ramifications and aftershocks, as “…that recent unpleasantness.”
Why do the cultists keep trying to convince the sheep that the economy is doing poorly when the economy is actually rolling along in really good form. It’s the best it’s been in many years!
It’s a shame the USA’s political parties cannot collaborate to change the G7’s GDP [ the US is 25% ] decline compare to the BRIC GDPs. .. visualcapitalist dot com/cp/animated-chart-g7-vs-brics-by-gdp-ppp/
All the economic indicators are trending in the right direction. I’ve never had it better. I trust the data, not the rhetoric of Trump addicts. “The sky is falling.” Just another Big Lie.
Strangely economists, in the main, think the economy is doing surprisingly well. I guess they aren’t as knowledgeable as Lisa. Oh, I got 2 CDs for 5% the other day. I guess that is terrible according to Prof. Lisa!
The Dems should be ashamed to have such an incompetent President. He is mentally challenged and a crook. Anybody who would vote for him is really stupid.
When the V.P. says something she wasn’t supposed to admit, “most Americans are a $400 unexpected expense away from bankruptcy.” Yeah, that’s the truth about Bidenomics.
From this side of the fence it would appear that Bidenomics is doing a pretty good job. AND.. could be even better if it were not for republican obstruction. Sadly.. reality has never been part of Lisa’s wit.
The desperation on the part of the cartoonist is highly palatable. That being said, it does indicate one truth and one abject fear. White people, including many white women, are afraid of becoming a minority in this country and it is the Democrats, with policies calling for equality for all peoples, races, ethnicities, creeds, genders, and sexualities who they perceive is bringing about this huge demographic shift. What are white people afraid of? They are afraid of being marginalized and forgotten, they are afraid of losing their power and control, their wealth and status. Most importantly, they are terrified that they they have treated women and minorities is the way they will be treated. This is one of the reasons why Donald Trump appeals to some many white people, both the stupid and the intelligent. They like his authoritarian approach because that is the only way they can stop all of what they fear from actually happening. Is this fear rational? Absolutely not. But if we have learned anything in the past eight-nine years, it is that Trump and his supporters refuse to act rationally and adamantly refuse to acknowledge reality, even when it comes crashing down on top of them.
‘Watershed moment’: Biden admin unveils first 10 drugs subject to Medicare price negotiations
The Biden administration on Tuesday unveiled a list of the first 10 prescription drugs that will be subject to direct price negotiations with Medicare, a key step toward curbing the pharmaceutical industry’s ability to drive up the costs of lifesaving medications at will.The list, released by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), comes as major players in the pharmaceutical industry are waging an aggressive legal fight against Medicare price negotiations, which are required under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Half a dozen pharmaceutical companies and two industry coalitions have filed a total of eight lawsuits against the Biden administration in recent weeks.
This is another thing selfish lying republicans have refused to do for the American people.
Wow, you depict Bidenomics as much stronger and aggressive than we all thought you would. Not even off the leash yet! That woman shown must be a tax cheat?
That “no evidence” is coming closer & closer to clear evidence. Hopefully Bribemnomics turns and bites Joek in the a$$ before the sheep vote him in for another 4 years of demented destruction.
National Archives finds more than 5,000 emails including Biden’s secret email addresses, by Sarah Bedford, Investigative Reporter
House Oversight Committee members pushed the National Archives earlier this month to hand over communications involving the aliases and any records that included correspondence between Joe Biden and the business partners of his son, Hunter Biden.
Emails on Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop showed that Joe Biden’s vice presidential staff looped Hunter Biden into his father’s private schedule on days that corresponded with significant moments in Ukraine relations, of which Joe Biden was placed in charge at the time.
Hunter Biden then sat on the board of a Ukrainian energy company. As vice president, Joe Biden took a number of steps that ultimately helped that company.
House Republicans expressed interest in the pseudonyms because they are searching for additional links between Joe Biden and his son’s foreign business dealings, having uncovered several through witness testimony and documents.
Remember, the Bribem’s transactions were flagged as suspicious by US Treasury. There is a reason for that. From the FD-1023: Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky reportedly said, “Don’t worry Hunter will take care of all of those issues through his dad.” Zlochevsky reportedly stated that he had to pay $5 million to Hunter Biden and $5 million to Joe Biden, an arrangement he described as ‘poluchili,’ which is Russian crime slang for being “forced or coerced to pay,” according to the document.
‘What the hell is wrong with Republicans?’ Marjorie Taylor Greene flips out over impeachment
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) lashed out at her party on Tuesday because they have not moved forward with an impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden. In an interview on Real America’s Voice, host Miranda Kahn set Greene off by asking why Republicans had not launched an impeachment inquiry.
I see the lefties making false comparisons between President Trump and Biden. The Trump family corporation owns about 500 different money making businesses and companies. Jared’s investment company received about $2 billion from the Saudi’s to bring their total capital up to about $4 billion. What the ignorant and cognitive dissonant left doesn’t understand is that Jared didn’t get that money, it was received by the company which has already invested is several startups in the USA and around the world.
The Biden crime cartels numerous companies and LLCs produce nothing and provide no services. Their only function is to transfer money from peddling influence, extortion and pay to play in order to hide the money trail. Prove me and post a link showing what any of Biden’s LLCs do.
He needs 4 more years to completely destroy the country. Of course, he and his family have been paid well – they’ll be just fine while the rest of us will be trying to survive under the new world order!

National Archives finds more than 5,000 emails including Biden’s secret email addresses, by Sarah Bedford, Investigative Reporter
House Oversight Committee members pushed the National Archives earlier this month to hand over communications involving the aliases and any records that included correspondence between Joe Biden and the business partners of his son, Hunter Biden.
Emails on Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop showed that Joe Biden’s vice presidential staff looped Hunter Biden into his father’s private schedule on days that corresponded with significant moments in Ukraine relations, of which Joe Biden was placed in charge at the time.
