Nah, just sour grapes on the part of those who would rather see America destroyed than admit they are wrong. You guys are the sorest losers in history. Even the confederacy showed more dignity.

Producer prices as of May rose 6.6% over the past 12 months, the fastest increase on record.
At the same time, retail sales declined 1.3%, worse than the 0.6% estimate.

Federal Reserve officials believe the current increase will prove to be transitory as supply and demand issues balance out and low readings during the pandemic lockdown wash out of the system.

However, several notable Wall Street names, including Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan and hedge fund billionaire Paul Tudor Jones, told CNBC on Monday that it's time for the Fed to pull back on the easy-money policy it instituted during the pandemic.

The inflation Cassandras may finally be having their revenge. Like everybody else in the world dealing with shortages of chickens, lumber and chlorine, China has its own supply problems and rising prices, writes Dan Moss. Just like everyone else, it hopes these are temporary. But its economy has developed enough in recent decades, and its wages have risen enough, that its days of keeping global growth high and prices low are over.

In fact, China could soon be exporting stagflation to the world, warns John Authers. If Beijing tries to solve its little inflation problem by letting its currency jump, then that could lower the buying power of other currencies, including those in your bank account. And given its anxiety about the social upheaval inflation would bring, Beijing could be determined to fight it, no matter the cost. The spice won’t flow forever.

Industry trade group the U.S. Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) released the results of its latest biannual survey of the chief U.S. economists from 27 financial institutions, highlighting growing attention on price pressures.

Amid the focus on inflation, SIFMA said that 87% of respondents “view stagflation, as opposed to hyperinflation or deflation, as the bigger risk to the economy.” Stagflation is when slow economic growth is accompanied by high inflation and high unemployment.

Thing is, it would be extremely difficult and problematic for the Fed to tighten policy at this juncture. I, a random guy with a bachelor’s degree, called it early last year. This was all easily predicted and therefore probably avoidable. Sometimes I hate being right.

More legitimacy problems for Chairman Xiden and the Dems. Several hundred thousand ballots held under lock and key by county officials were found to be nothing more than blank sheets of paper. No wonder they fought so hard to keep the audit from happening:

Present the findings to a court. We'll see if this allegation is true or not. Wanna take a bet it's not?

The court battle has already been fought. That's the one that allowed the audit to take place. The audit itself has been completely transparent; there were witnesses there that saw the sealed boxes opened.

Meanwhile, Chairman Xiden's cokehead son has found a new way to make money. It turns out he is an "accomplished artist". No kidding. While he was making all that money running oil companies in Ukraine and participating in Chinese start-ups worth billions, he was also fine tuning his artwork. Now it looks like his paintings are going to bring upwards of $500,000.00 dollars in his first ever art exhibition. The buyers, of course, are Chinese.

You mean the Arizona Senate? They took possession of the ballots and gave them to a cybersecuity company that has never conducted an election audit. Not the Arizona courts.

If they are going to claim to have found hundreds of thousands of blank ballots would that not potentially have an effect on the results of the 2020 on election? Sounds like they should present this to a court. Really doubt they will though.

I'm not so sure that you can always depend on "American Thinker" for the best info.

Here is the latest from both the lead auditor and the Republican senator heading up the liaison for the audit. According to this report there were no missing ballots. They claim it was all a false rumor. It's wise to always look for multiple sources to verify.

The company then proceeded to mishandled ballots and the counting, along with being to dumb to figure out basic computer usage. No result they come up with could ever be valid in any way. It's the equivalent of a lab tech sneezing in a petri dish.

If they are going to claim to have found hundreds of thousands of blank ballots would that not potentially have an effect on the results of the 2020 on election? Sounds like they should present this to a court. Really doubt they will though.

I claim that tens of millions of Biden votes in Texas were thrown out, and demand the state's electoral votes be given to Biden. I have no evidence that this is true, and I won't be arguing it in court, but I still expect to be taken just as seriously as BW's election fraud claims.

Are you serious? There were dozens of articles on the court battle between the Dems and the Arizona senate. How'd you miss them?

If you had read the article you would have found that it is based on a National File article and it (the AT article) does state that it is based on inside information coming from the audit floor (rumors). However, this type of info has been proven correct in the past.

Your not disagreeing with what I said. The court battle dealt with access to the ballots. The court never ruled on whenever they could conduct an audit or not.

Seriously? The purpose of access was to conduct an audit. Just exactly what is it that you think those Senate Republicans wanted access to the ballots for?

I did read the entire article and also read the complete article from the National File. According to the current report from the Epoch times, these were unsubstantiated rumors attributed to Josh Barnett, which both the head of the audit team and the Republican Senate liaison for the audit have since stated were false.

Even the Epoch Times article mentions the National File article

Spokespersons for the audit taking place in Arizona’s largest county are pushing back on a report that claimed auditors have discovered hundreds of thousands of missing ballots.
“There’s been no such finding yet,” Ken Bennett, a former Arizona Republican secretary of state, told The Epoch Times.

He confirmed that there haven’t been any missing ballots discovered during the audit thus far.
Bennett is the Arizona Senate’s liaison for the audit.
Randy Pullen, a former chairman of the Arizona Republican Party who is also serving as a spokesman for the audit, told reporters at the election review in Phoenix that the missing ballot claim is “crazy.”
The report was published by National File and cited Josh Barnett, who’s running for Arizona’s 6th Congressional District. Barnett was described as an audit organizer.
“We found a ballot shortage, anywhere from 5 to 10 percent of the votes,” Barnett said. “It looks like a couple hundred thousand ballots are unaccounted for. The ballots are missing.”
Barnett didn’t respond to a request for comment by press time.

Mr. Bennett went on to state that he was sure there would be errors since there normally always are with any election. It's just that such errors are usually not enough to change an election's outcome.

Personally, I would think it would be best to wait until the whole process is finished before making any sweeping pronouncements.

I have to wonder if Biden's team think like total war: Medieval 2 AI
Do they really think they can get Russia to attack China just because america acts nice to them for a few weeks?

Both articles associated with the AT article, as well as the AT article, stated the information was unconfirmed. I was unable to read the Epoch Times article because it was behind an identity wall. However, I do consider the ET to be reliable, especially on Asian politics.

The thing is that the people running the audit are trying to keep a lid on what they've found so far. This is understandable because of all the disinformation by the left-wing media trying to discredit the audit before its findings are released. They are all in a panic over it.

With that said, it's almost a given that some interesting things are going to come out of it; otherwise the three publications in the AT article wouldn't be writing speculative essays. They know the auditors have found something. Don't forget that it was the Dominion chief of net security who guaranteed that Xiden would win the election.

It's been 8 months BW. 8 months.

Surely you all would have solid proof of voter fraud by now if there was any? Something besides conspiracy and hurt feelings. Something from actual law enforcement and courts.

Time to put up or shut up.

8 months! It's scandalous that it has taken 8 months for something to happen that should have happened last November!

Of course, the Republicans in the House were going to challenge the election on January 6, but the riot took place.

Now we find out that FBI agents may have been involved in instigating the riot:
