The White House social media team set off some fireworks it didn’t want Thursday when it attempted to counter inflation fears by claiming Americans will enjoy cheaper Independence Day parties this year.
“Planning a cookout this year?” the groan-worthy tweet began. “Ketchup on the news. According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a 4th of July BBQ is down from last year. It’s a fact you must-hear(d). Hot dog, the Biden economic plan is working. And that’s something we can all relish.”
The tweet was accompanied by a GIF laying out the price change for select food items.

Went to the grocery today. Picked up a butt pork for the 4th of July. It was a good price. However, the birdseed I buy went up $1 a bag, the cat food I buy went up $.27 a can, a large box of salty snacks went up $13 and I'm not kidding (didn't buy it), applesauce was up $.25, hamburger was going for $5.99 a pound and the fillet I like is now $32 a pound up from the usual price of $19.99 only three weeks ago. Bend over biden and I will be happy to show you where you can put that $.16 cents. Then to top it off I needed gas for the car. Gas is up almost 50%. As far as I am concerned you can shove it where the sun don't shine.

He forgot about his "no malarkey" talk. Ugh
..."What a maroon", as Bugs Bunny would say.

The “punny” tweet didn’t bother me. Below average IQs will yield below average, and inappropriate, messages.

These wokesters posting this junk and this regime need to literally cram it with a steam hammer. Undoubtedly they will be eating their soy burgers and planning how they can reduce the Bill of Rights to a dead letter. Sorry to be crude but when they want to slit our throats,, it's appropriate.

I can just see them sitting around and thinking how clever they are to come up with this ridiculous tweet.

Last year I paid $2.49 per lb. for loin back ribs. This year $4.99, and that's "on sale"! Thanks Plugs.
What liars!

We would all like to tell Biden where he can put his hot dog. The NSA is probably having fits over our spoken opinions of this pathetic loser but I'm sure there are too many of us for available reeducation camp space at the moment.

That tweet was from the dems very own Baghdad Bob. People are living the reality, they know the truth.

It's kind of funny how gas prices trickle down through the economy. Cut off those gasoline supplies (e.g. end drilling leases on federal land and in the Gulf and shut down Keystone) and gas prices go up - gasoline has only doubled in a lot of places since January. Everything gets delivered by gas powered vehicle. The increased cost of gasoline gets passed on to your pop tarts and your loaf of bread.
But hey. No more mean tweets.

This White House is no different than a kindergarten class. But they want to be taken seriously. (Eyes rolling into the back of my head)

So cool to see Burgess Owens from Utah getting out there and joining the fight. He dethroned that Clinton weasel Ben McAdams, who now gets paid by the University of Utah to teach business students how to make money from government spending.

Hillary Clinton's former speech writer must have written that childish gibberish garbage. Democrats are so stupid this just proves it. This is the head of our fraud government while the world is watching. I would like to challenge that comment because I don't see cheaper prices along with the price of gasoline. Who do they think we are? Woke third graders too stupid to challenge a grocery receipt?
