Remember the name Jody Powell? At age 33, he was appointed President Jimmy Carter's press secretary. Mr. Powell died young at 65 from a heart attack and his White House employment certainly was not a physiological boost.

Obviously, the late 1970s were a much different time than now, but the economic problems President Biden has are very similar to Carter's.  

Simply put: working class Americans are getting hammered with the high cost of just about everything.  Biden's press secretary is Karine Jean-Pierre who, like Jody Powell, has no explanation other than the Republicans did it.

A tarot card reader can give you a better analysis than that.

Here is the grim truth. Under President Biden grocery store prices are up 25 percent on average, a disaster.  Gas prices 50 percent higher than on Inauguration Day 2021. The cost of a home up 47 percent, the median price hit a record $421,000 this year.

You want to insure that expensive house? It will cost you 64 percent more than under Trump. Car insurance: 52 percent more.

The price hikes are endless and Ms. Jean Pierre is shell shocked.  Even the pro-Biden press is having a very hard time spinning this. It's like saying a root canal will improve your day.

It won't. And the Republicans didn't do it.

See you this evening for the No Spin News.
