Biden's America last energy and everything policy continues to drive the price of food skyward to new record levels. Biden and his fellow Leftists continue to push working class Americans into the depths of poverty. The Biden wrecking ball continues to weaken the American economy and seemingly push it to the point of no return.

How much more will America take before drastic legal actions are taken against Biden, for his willful destruction of the American economy. Biden has now created the perfect storm for the summer of hell.

When will this Leftist thug finally be held accountable for all unnecessary worry and financial burden his administration has placed upon every American citizen?

I agree 101% with your thinking. I think we should bring back public hanging for "treasonable offenses" such as "aiding and abetting our enemies", actions which smokey Joe has committed willfully, knowingly (??), and repeatedly. There isn't a penalty (drat the luck) for acting like a piece of lifeless feldercarb, or he could strung up for that as well. but I digress - - - - - -

That list provided by the government- however- is just a bucket of Bravo Sierra.
Here are some real stats from midwest suburbia - - - -
Bacon $2.99 to $4.99 on sale = 66% +
Beef pot roast (boneless) - $1.99 to $3.99 on sale = doubled!
Lunchmeat- (Polish ham) - $2.99 frequently, now 3.99, rarely = 33%+
Cheese singles- $0.99 a pack every other week - now $1.67 (3/$5) IF lucky = 67%+ min.
Soup- Progresso- $0.99/can, now $3.28/can (never on sale now) = more than tripled!
Salad dressing- Cheap stuff at Dollar tree- 1.00 now $1.25 = 25%+. Brand names up even more at food stores.
Fresh fruit- Apples - 3# bag 2.99 now $3.99 = 33%+
Fresh fruit- Grapes- $0.99/# now (SHOCK) $0.99/#. Thank you, Chile!
Chicken- boneless breasts. $0.99 to $3.49 pound on sale = 350%
Milk- $1.99/gal now $2.50/ gal on sale = 25%+
Eggs- $0.84/doz now $2.99 (or was 1.99, limit 1, on a super digital coupon special) = 137% or 256%, depending on the deal.
Saltines- $0.79 (Aldi generic) now $0.98 = 24%+
The only thing I buy regularly that has NOT gone up (other than grapes) is xxx xxxx. (I'm afraid if I spell it out, the government will raise it, so I won't risk it).
Bread- I have given up on even buying those carbs! I work at a Food Pantry, and there is usually enough bread "on code" that the workers get a loaf or two to bring home! :- )

Its planned. The idea of destroying the US from within has been brought about. What are people going to do about it?
