Starts @ 4:04 - Fair Use - More Lies: Joe Biden’s Magic 0% Inflation Is Costing American Families an Additional $717 a Month: Last week Joe Biden told Americans the inflation rate was at 0%. This was a bald-faced lie. The current Biden inflation rate is at 8.5%. This is a 40-year high. Biden: “Before I begin today, I want to say a word about the news that came out relative to the economy. I want to say a number. Zero. Today, we received news our economy had 0% inflation in the month of July. 0%.” A new report found that the Biden inflation is costing American households an extra $717 a month. This is a national crisis! That figures out to $8,607 per family, per year! Scorching-hot inflation has created severe financial pressures for most U.S. households, which are forced to pay more everyday necessities like food and rent. The burden is disproportionately borne by low-income Americans, whose already-stretched paychecks are heavily impacted by price fluctuations. Although American workers have seen strong wage gains in recent months, inflation has eroded those entirely. Real average hourly earnings actually decreased 0.5% in July from the previous month when accounting for higher consumer prices, according to the Labor Department. On an annual basis, real earnings actually dropped 3% in July… . . .experts have cautioned that inflation remains abnormally high and could take months, or even years, to return to pre-pandemic levels. Eric Trump says security video of FBI raid will be released: Eric Trump, son of former President Donald Trump, said that his family plans to release security footage of the FBI raid on his father’s Mar-a-Lago resort home. During an appearance on Fox News on Monday night, host Sean Hannity asked Eric Trump about surveillance tapes of the raid. “Will you — you still have the surveillance tape, is that correct? Will you — are you allowed to share that with the country?” Hannity said. “Absolutely, Sean. At the right time,” Trump said, adding, “That’s why cops wear body cams. They don’t tell you to turn off cameras. They want transparency and that’s not what happened here.” Trump said the raid has “caused the greatest fundraising” and sent his father’s poll numbers “through the roof.” Trump said the American people are witnessing the “weaponization of the FBI” and are calling it a “police state.” “People get this for what it is, Sean. They’ve removed the wool from people’s eyes. People know exactly what’s going on. They’re targeting Donald Trump. They’re targeting his family. They’re targeting everybody around him. They’re targeting his lawyers. Anybody that is close to Donald Trump,” he continued. “Anybody who’s effective, they’re targeting right now, and people understand this for exactly what it’s worth.” Republican Rep. Liz Cheney loses to Trump-backed challenger Harriet Hageman in Wyoming GOP primary: Incumbent Republican Rep. Liz Cheney has been defeated by Harriet Hageman in the GOP primary for Wyoming's at-large congressional district. Cheney, who was one of the 10 House Republicans to vote in favor of impeaching then-President Donald Trump last year in the wake of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, was ousted from her role as House Republican conference chair last year. She is one of the two Republican lawmakers sitting on the House select committee established to investigate the Jan. 6 episode. Cheney is the daughter of Dick Cheney, who served as vice president during Bush's White House tenure. In a campaign ad for his daughter, Dick Cheney declared, "There is nothing more important she will ever do than lead the effort to make sure Donald Trump is never again near the Oval Office. And she will succeed." Former President Donald Trump had endorsed Hageman last year while calling Cheney a "warmonger and disloyal Republican" as well as a "RINO," which is an acronym of the phrase "Republican in name only." During an interview last month, Cheney told CNN's Jake Tapper that no matter the outcome of the primary contest, she will "continue to fight hard to ensure Donald Trump is never anywhere close to the Oval Office ever again." In response to a question from Tapper about the possibility of mounting a presidential bid, Cheney said that she would "make a decision about 2024 down the road." https://www.theblaze.com/news/hageman-defeats-cheney-wyoming-primary Facebook Tightens Moderation Policies to ‘Safeguard’ 2022 Midterms: Via Facebook: Meta invests a huge amount to protect elections online — not just during election periods but at all times. We spent approximately $5 billion on safety and security last year alone, and have hundreds of people dedicated to this work permanently embedded across more than 40 teams. With each major election around the world — including national elections this year in France and the Philippines — we incorporate the lessons we learn to help stay ahead of emerging threats. Facebook said it would remove posts that encourage people not to vote, or question the legitimacy of the midterm elections, as well as “misinformation about the dates, locations, times, and methods of voting; misinformation about who can vote, whether a vote will be counted, and qualifications for voting; and calls for violence related to voting, voter registration, or the administration or outcome of an election.” The company also boasted of the vast amounts of content it has censored in the name of fighting “hate,” a nebulous term that is frequently used by various private actors to suppress legitimate political discourse.
