Fuel prices over $1 per gallon higher than a year ago. Heating oil prices are worse.
Inflation over the past 12 months 7.5%. Prices on some items worse, used cars 47%,
The meat, poultry, fish, and eggs, consumers paid 13% more for ground beef and 22% for beef roasts. Ribeye steak 32%. While bacon for the year, up more than 18%. Eggs increased 11% for the last 12 months.
Milk, in December 2020 $3.50, currently $4.99 a gallon on average.
Food away from home, the cost for eating out at restaurants, was the largest since January 1982.
Excluding food and energy, consumer prices were up 5.5% for the year, the largest increase in 30 years.
Afghanistan was a disaster and we still have both american citizens as well as allies stranded there. We lost lives because of a botched withdrawal plan.
Ukraine is being invaded by Russia today. It happened in 2014 under Obama/Biden and is being repeated under Biden/Harris. The response has been weak and the foresight to see what was coming over the past year was almost non existent. WE are looking at war in Europe on a scale not seen since WWII.
Biden announced weeks ago that the US would not send troops to fight in Ukraine. That's the equivalent of an invitation to Putin to take Ukraine by force. His sanctions are few and weak, even thought he claims that the sanctions are tough. Go after the Russians oligarchs, freeze their finances, these are the people pulling the power strings. Biden will not touch them.
Europe is waiting for leadership from the world power and they don't see it.
Our own southern border sees record high numbers of illegal crossings of unaccompanied minors, family groups, adult single males. We daily see drugs, particularly fentanyl, and sex offenders being apprehended coming across our border. Biden has done nothing but make it easier to violate our border. He stopped the wall, he stopped the remain in Mexico program, he has tied the hands of border patrol. What would make anyone think he could handle Putin.
Oh, yeah he told us he could. He told us in the campaign Putin doesn't want me to be President because I've been toe to toe with him.
Putin fears Joe Biden. LOL!

Vladimir Putin doesn’t want me to be President. He doesn’t want me to be our nominee. If you’re wondering why — it’s because I’m the only person in this field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with him.
