Inflation Again Comes In "Lighter Than Expected" at Only 0.1% in May, the Lowest Since March 2021
Update: Democrat Congresswoman Insists That Prices Are Rising, WITHOUT EVIDENCE

Six months ago, the Democrat-Media Party couldn't stop talking about inflation, after having refused to talk about inflation for four years.

"Trump has done nothing to reduce the price of eggs," they all said in Trump's first week as president, suddenly acknowledging the steep increase in the price of eggs under Biden after denying it.

"Trump's distracting the voters by talking about immigration because he's not doing anything about inflation," they all said in Trump's second week in office.

Well, inflation is now well under control and falling even more.

And strangely enough, the Democrat-Media Party is silent about inflation again.

The White House declared Wednesday that "America is beating inflation," touting the latest Consumer Price Index as proof that President Trump's economic leadership is ushering in a "new Golden Age" of falling prices, rising wages, and broad prosperity.
Key Details:
The May CPI report showed overall inflation "lighter than expected" once again, according to the White House. Officials emphasized that since Trump took office, inflation has come in below economists' forecasts every month.
Core inflation--which strips out food and energy--held steady at the lowest level since March 2021. The White House noted that under Trump, core inflation has averaged just 2.0% annually, mirroring rates last seen during his first term.
The administration also highlighted wage growth, particularly for production and nonsupervisory workers. Real wages for those workers rose in May at the fastest pace in nearly a year, and have now increased every month since Trump returned to office.

Trump called for a cut in the Fed's interest rate, which would spur growth.

But the head of the Fed, Jerome Powell, is a partisan Democrat who is only interested in cutting interest rates and flooding the country with freshly printed currency if the president (or, "president") is a Democrat.

President Trump reacted Wednesday to the latest inflation data by urging the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by a full point. Calling the CPI numbers "great," he argued that such a move would significantly reduce interest costs on the nation's debt, adding, "SO IMPORTANT!!!"
Key Details:
Trump posted on Truth Social shortly after the Consumer Price Index was released, writing: "CPI JUST OUT. GREAT NUMBERS!"
He called on the Federal Reserve to "LOWER ONE FULL POINT," emphasizing the impact on debt payments: "WOULD PAY MUCH LESS INTEREST ON DEBT COMING DUE."
The post comes just hours after a White House statement declared, "America is beating inflation," pointing to steady core inflation, declining energy prices, and rising real wages.

42 Inflation has slowed or stopped but those prices ain’t never going back down.

Corporations took advantage of the real inflation and increased prices additionally based on anticipatory increases in future manufacturing costs.. Now that those anticipatory increases didn’t happen for the most part and energy costs have decreased, they still won’t decrease their prices.

I need to look up the earnings of the fast food kings and other corporations. I would bet they had a couple of good years.

Fake news, Ace. Powell also cut rates in the run-up to the 2024 presidential election to help Kamala win, and also to juice the economy for her as she was expected to win. He's partisan scum. Trump should have fired him 30 seconds after Trump was sworn in.

63 Another aspect of the economy:

DIRECTING THE REPEAL OF UNLAWFUL REGULATIONS, an EO Trump signed 2 months ago.

A directing for agency heads to tear out reams and reams of federal regulation not explicitly authorized in statute, Loper v Raimondo being the first SCOTUS ruling listed in the text.

It also directs to not even notify the public of deregulatory efforts because Loper outweighs the APA.

Tearing out massive burdensome rules is going to have a positive effect on the economy.

LOS ANGELES, CA — As has become the standard operating procedure for the military branch over the last half-century, 700 members of the United States Marines found themselves being deployed to yet another third-world country that is full of hostile foreigners.

In this latest deployment to a non-English-speaking wasteland, the Marines were supremely confident that they would be able to handle the marauding hordes of foreign nationals, despite the inhospitable conditions presented by the rubble and destruction of the surroundings.

yup.
Kagan's dissent on that recent Trump win sure seemed to think Humphrey's was over-turned.
The majority opinion basically said, "maybe Humphrey's protects quasi-government agencies like the Fed, but only if they have no Executive functions."
Then cited to a law or something in support--which Kagan helpfully pointed out--doesn't actually say that.

So yeah, the final opinion on that is going to be "Whenever Congress creates, the Constitution then gives the Executive full, complete authority to run--there's no "shared power" scheme permitted under the Constitution."

Even assuming that they're working and not collecting any benefits at all, shipping out 1,000,000 people (as has been done since the start of Trump's term) means fewer dollars flowing through the economy, more rent spaces opening up and increasing supply while decreasing demand, and the same for things like grocery items.

Remember the whole thing about Millennials not being able to afford houses? Think 4 years of net migration out will affect that in any way?

211 But the head of the Fed, Jerome Powell, is a partisan Democrat who is only interested in cutting interest rates and flooding the country with freshly printed currency if the president (or, "president") is a Democrat.

That was in the face of Yellen issuing short term bonds to the EU, and being forced to cover them.
As far as I can tell, once that ended (Bessent came in and stopped it) Powell raised rates, which has royally messed up the plans of the European Central Bank and the City of London who needed the low rates to keep spending the way they were spending.
Powell is most likely stomping on the ECB on purpose, and since Powell and Bessant have lunch once a week, the probability is this is being managed by the Fed, the Treasury, and Trump. An emergency rate drop is not needed, there is no emergency yet

As an indication of the current situation, Gold has supplanted Euros' position as the second largest reserve asset for most of the world.

Bessent and Powell have lunch weekly. Also, Bessent opined officially that the Fed has too much input into banking regulations. I think the financial world is evolving.

It’s a semi catch 22. Spending stimulates the economy. It is a complicated balancing act .

Sort of. The argument from the MMT people is that every dollar the government spends yields some multiplier of value.

But in reality its fractional. So the government gives $100M to a favored business, but because it isn't the market ruthlessly determining efficiencies that $100M actual yields say $10M in actual value, and then that $100M increases inflation by whatever fraction of the monetary supply is.

Now the most amusing part of this is if the MMT people really believe what they claim they should call for the end of taxes and budgets 10X or more what they are now. Why not? Its like getting a low rate loan that you can invest in a high rate of return investment right? So spend ALL the money!

But...even they don't believe that. They just want to have a little bit of protection so they can keep looting the treasury.

That was the silliest part of Kagan's screed (and she really does come through as low-IQ):

So?
Not cited in support? The Constitution.
It's either an Executive function, which the Executive has sole authority.
Or it's not.
Congress can't say, "we're passing a law making profanity illegal and the arresting officers, the prosecutors and the courts will all be Legislative officials funded and controlled by us alone."
That's what they've done with the Fed.

285 ace seems kinda interesting and up your alley.

Polling showing a *40 POINT* shift from Dems to GOP on "who do you trust on immigration" question, 2020 vs. 2024.

Forty points, in 4 years. This is not something one sees in political polling - and it seems it's reasonably an apples-to-apples comparison, no bad/biased polling artifacts.

Of course "GOP" is a hilariously misleading way to offer the choice to a respondent, but they're sort of locked into that Dem/GOP binary framework. Trump is of course the actual choice, no reason to think GOP is significantly more serious, sane, or honest about the issue overall (tragically, for the country).

Anyway.

290 Trump Bulldozes the White House Rose Garden. Work has begun on the president’s plan to pave over the grass in the Rose Garden lawn.

Bulldozers have begun ripping up the grass and digging the foundation for a new flagpole in the White House Rose Garden lawn, making good on President Donald Trump’s plan to install a Mar-a-Lago-style patio...later explained that the reason was because women had trouble walking in the wet grass in high heels...

that garden was exquisite with lots of history too. The Architect (Sears) was very good @ bringing Jackie Kennedy’s idea to life. A relaxing green experience where the President and others could meet and talk in a less formal setting.

Like a male dog lifting his hind leg to leave his territorial message. Pathetic really. Wasted money. We will have a citizen makeover of the White House ala Jackie Kennedy when he is gone. A great project. We can all participate and be part of a national project.

The Rose Garden is historic! Think of all the presidents giving speeches there, and other special occasions that took place. He wants to destroy American history, and write his own.

Not the most important thing, but just to underscore the depravity... It's almost certainly the case that the Israelis put Greta on an airplane because they know she doesn't fly out of principle, so they wanted to humiliate her and get a propaganda image out of it for kicks.

343 IDF should have torpedoed Gruta's boat and hopefully killed everyone on board. I mean, the boat was trying to breach a military blockade in the middle of a shooting war. If that doesn't warrant use of deadly force, then what does?

352 Um, 0.1% is small, but it is positive, which means prices are in fact, overall, still rising.

You don't undo the damage of previous inflation without sustained deflation, which means that rate has to be negative.

I think most if not all these types of videos are fake. Beach boys music is so ubiquitous there’s no way they’ve never heard a song of theirs. In a movie or tv show to commercial or something like that. I mean shit the Beatles broke up before I was born. I still know who they are and have heard their songs.
