Job Creators Network Hammers Biden’s Bogus Inflation Numbers With Massive Times Square Billboard



Jerome Hudson 17 May 2024

The Job Creators Network’s (JCN) latest Times Square billboard calls out President Joe Biden and his administration’s false and misleading statements about inflation being nine percent when he took office.

“INFLATION…IT WAS AT 9 PERCENT WHEN I CAME IN OFFICE” the billboard reads. “HEY PAL. HOW MANY MORE TIMES DO WE HAVE TO HEAR THIS MALARKEY?! DO YOU THINK WE’RE STUPID OR SOMETHING?”

Indeed, Biden has repeatedly made false and misleading statements about inflation in recent weeks. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said President Biden falsely saying inflation was nine percent when he took office was meant to suggest that “the factors that caused inflation were in place when he walked into the administration when he took office.”

“Consumer prices have soared by 20 percent on President Biden’s watch, leaving small businesses and American families in difficult financial straits. But Biden continues to try to rewrite history in an attempt to deflect blame and bolster support ahead of the November election,” Alfredo Ortiz, Chief Executive Officer of the Job Creators Network, said in a statement.

“When Biden took office, inflation was at 1.4 percent, not 9 percent as he recently claimed. Does the White House think we’re stupid or something?”

That looks like boots on the ground ... or, are they wearing sandals?

WTF isn't this a UN or Arab League relief operation?

If there are too many Americans on the ground for too long, Gaza will be come another Mogadishu.

I think those are Israeli troops judging by the helmets and kit.

Seems to me Ukraine has learned a lot more about modern warfare using drones, large and small, in a real world situation than The UN could teach them anyway...unless it was for those pretty blue helmets to show how to draw sniper fire :pondering:

Not the UN, but NATO. Big difference.

Georgia Republicans plot 2024 comeback with Trump’s appeal to black voters

COLUMBUS, GEORGIA — Kelly Loeffler may not be a U.S. senator anymore, but she hasn’t strayed far from the center of Georgia politics.

Loeffler made an appearance at the Georgia state GOP convention in Columbus Friday to talk about how Republicans can take back the Peach State. Flanked by conservative talk radio hosts Leo Terrell and Shelley Wynter, she hosted a “fireside chat” centered largely on how to win more black voters.

“Democrats need black voters more than black voters need the Democratic Party,” said Loeffler, who served in the Senate in 2020 and 2021 before losing her seat to Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA). “The Trump coalition is good for voters of every color, every religion, every creed.”

Terrell and Wynter, who are both black, agreed that African American voters can be brought into the GOP fold via aggressive outreach.

“It’s not about skin tone. That’s the Democratic playbook,” he said. “I’m old enough to remember a guy saying you judge a person by the content of his character and not the color of his skin. And that’s why we’re all here.”
