Psaki says Government can’t help with skyrocketing gas prices, inflation is not their fault

Inflation in the United States reached a new 40-year high of 7.9% in February in another grim signal for consumers

Rev 6:6 NAS And I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not damage the oil and the wine.”

Important Takeaways:

  • Psaki says Biden ‘can’t do much’ about skyrocketing gas prices, again blames Putin and says record 7.9% inflation will be ‘temporary’ after President said it would be ‘short-term’ last spring
  • White House press secretary Jen Psaki doubled down on blaming Vladimir Putin for rising inflation in the U.S.
  • Came after Biden blamed Vladimir Putin, thought the latest report does not capture the full impact of Russia’s invasion
  • US Consumer Price Index rose 7.9 percent in February from a year ago, the most since June 1982
  • Soaring prices are affecting food, clothing, shelter and other basic necessities for regular Americans
  • Gasoline has continued to skyrocket since the February report, suggesting inflation will only get worse
  • It is adding to political pressure on Biden and congressional Democrats ahead of the key midterms
