Bidenomics: Fast Food Costs Soar — McChicken up 199%, Frosty up 111%, Taco Bell Burrito up 132%


22 May 2024

Fast food is no longer healthy for your wallet. Common fast food favorites increased in price under President Joe Biden’s so-called Bidenomics.

Fast food inflation has a disparate impact across racial and ethnic groups due to different levels of fast food consumption. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 42.4 percent of non-Hispanic black adults consume fast food, compared with 37.6 percent of non-Hispanic white adults, 35.5 percent of Hispanic adults, and 30.6 percent of Asian adults.

The higher price tag of popular foods may be creating political problems for Biden. Thirty percent of black men and 11 percent of black women intend to vote for former President Donald Trump, a Wall Street Journal poll found, a dramatic increase from 2020.

Popeyes, Taco Bell, and Chipotle raised prices by at least 75 percent, according to the Food Institute:

• Popeyes Regular Mashed Potatoes & Gravy (+134 percent)
• Taco Bell’s Beefy 5-Layer Burrito (+132 percent)
• Wendy’s Small Frosty (+111 percent)
• Taco Bell Chalupa Supreme (+110 percent)
• Burger King Small Icee (+101 percent)
• Taco Bell Cheesy Gordita Crunch (+100 percent)
• McDonalds McChicken (+199%)

Prices in nearly 500 California Chipotle restaurants spiked from six percent to seven percent during just the first week of April, the Journal reported.

Chick-fil-A raised prices by 10.6 percent between mid-February and mid-April, Gordon Haskett Research Advisors estimated, along with Starbucks by 7.8 percent and Shake Shack by 7.7 percent.

Biden blames inflation on Trump, falsely claiming twice in May that it was nine percent when he took office.

“[N]o president’s had the run we’ve had in terms of creating jobs and bringing down inflation,” Biden told CNN’s Erin Burnett. “It was nine percent when I came into office, nine percent.”

“There’s corporate greed going on out there, and it’s got to be dealt with,” Biden blamed small and large businesses.
“Corporate price gouging” is the Biden administration’s latest narrative to displace the responsibility of soaring costs.

“Biden’s top economic priorities are fighting inflation and lowering costs for the American people,” White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates recently claimed. “Standing up to corporate price gouging is at the core of that fight.”
A majority of voters (51 percent) believe their financial position is worse off under Biden’s economic policies, a Financial Times/Michigan Ross poll recently showed. The poll also found damaging results for Biden’s reelection chances:

• Only 28 percent of voters said Biden’s economy helped their financial situation
• Seventy-one percent said economic conditions are negative
• Eighty percent said soaring prices are one of their biggest challenges

“The poll results, which come less than six months before November’s presidential election, suggest voters are still blaming Biden for high consumer prices such as those for petrol and food,” the Times analyzed.

 

It's the economy, stupid.

 

Biden's team doesn't have a clue what to do, because everything they've tried has backfired, and I'm sure they're concerned that Trump's win may be indeed 'Too big to rig.'

Leftard desperation is still a dangerous thing.

 

The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller US National Home Price Index, a measure of home prices across the country, jumped 6.5% in March from a year earlier to a record high. It is the sixth time the index has reached a new record high over the past year.

 

Family ambushed by carjackers on their front lawn fears retaliation: 'It's not safe'
Carjackers ambush Heather Allen's family in front yard with children in vehicle
May 30, 2024 1:00pm EDT

A Mississippi family is on edge, fearing retaliation could come to their doorstep after security camera images of the gunmen who ambushed and carjacked them on their front lawn received widespread attention.

"We have to get out of here. It's not safe. Especially not now, with all the news and stuff because their picture, it's getting out here, and, I'm afraid they're going to retaliate," Heather Allen, one of the victims in the incident last week, told "Fox & Friends First" on Thursday.

Allen is a resident of Jackson, Mississippi, where she says crime is out of control, and worse than in crime-ridden Memphis, Tennessee.

That crime epidemic arrived at her front lawn when the offenders walked onto her property and started shouting for her family to get out of their car.

"You can see me throw my hands up," Allen said. One of the attackers pulled her daughter out of the car, jumped inside and put a gun to her oldest son's face.

"My son gets out… I told him to run, go into the house, and then that's when I go for the grandbabies in the back seat," she recalled.

"They're [the carjackers were] in between my daughter, and they're going back and forth like, 'give me the keys, give me the keys.' My daughter's like, 'They're in the car,' and then that's when it dawned on me, I had my keys around my neck, so I took them off and threw them to them to get them out of my yard."

The family's security camera caught the crime on video. According to a local report, the incident took place just 40 minutes after another carjacking on a nearby street.

That same report said local police are still searching for the suspects. Allen claimed one suspect was caught on video at a nearby store. She has been given no information about the other suspect.

Allen also said she got her car back after going "back and forth" multiple times between impounded car lots and the local crime lab.

 

Pro-Hamas Protesters Mob Streets of Downtown LA, Chant 'Free Palestine' After Hostages Rescued
June 08, 2024

The sun rising on Saturday brought with it welcome news about the hostages who are still being held captive by Hamas terrorists since the attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. As we wrote in several articles, members of Israel's armed forces and police pulled off a daring raid, rescuing four Israelis from their captors in Gaza.

As my colleague Bonchie wrote, the joyful news wasn't received that way by pro-Hamas protesters in our nation's capital, who apparently had a game plan to "surround the White House," in hopes of swaying President Biden to their hateful position against our ally Israel. They also clashed with police and National Park Service personnel.

Indeed, the protest at the White House was the focus of the radical leftists' action on Saturday afternoon, but it wasn't the only place where protests were organized nationwide, according to this X post, which includes a flyer:https://twitter.com/eolelien/status...fter-israel-rescues-hostages-in-gaza-n2175232

One of the major U.S. cities on the list is Los Angeles, and -- like clockwork -- protesters mobbed the streets of its downtown. This post claims that "thousands of people" have joined student activists at L.A.'s city hall. Notice again the mention of being "the red line," just like on the flyer:https://twitter.com/PplsCityCouncil...fter-israel-rescues-hostages-in-gaza-n2175232

Here they are, marching near the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) headquarters:https://twitter.com/LukeHandCool2/s...fter-israel-rescues-hostages-in-gaza-n2175232

About three hours into the protest, this video of marchers chanting pro-Hamas slogans like "Free Palestine" appeared, led by what the X user said was a streamer from the Kick online platform:https://twitter.com/ystrayz_/status...fter-israel-rescues-hostages-in-gaza-n2175232

 

HAMAS supporters?
The despicables must be so proud ....

 

I remember a day, and it wasn't all that long ago, when people didn't celebrate a group that would rape a pregnant woman, then cut the baby out of the womb and murder both mother and child, still connected by the umbilical cord - and loading babies into ovens and cooking them alive (and plenty of other inhumane atrocities).

I'm stymied as to when this became something to protest in favor of.

 

We can thank soros and Brandon and the other American haters.

 

We see where Iran is now stepping up the enhancement of Uranium with new centrifuges.
And they don't want anyone checking up on what they're doing.
You know, like they agreed to when Kerry and the traitors cut a deal with Iran that every other nuclear country signed, as did Iran.
Like the part where Iran agreed not to enrich uranium above 4%.
Now they can enrich it up to 90%.
Which is what's needed if one wants to make nuclear weapons.

But never fear, Brandon's on the job.
Turns out, the US position is to encourage other countries NOT to censure Iran, or abstain from any votes calling for censure, and oh, by the way, that's what America will be doing (abstaining).

You just gotta ask yourself, now why wouldn't we want to stop Iran from making bomb quality uranium?
And the only thing Shooter can come up with is that Kerry is mixed up in this and there's 10% for the big guy.

Can't hate America more than that, can you?

Biden Administration Presses Allies Not to Confront Iran on Nuclear Program (msn.com)

Oh, and an update;
US joins Europeans in rare censure of Iran at UN nuclear watchdog - Al-Monitor: Independent, trusted coverage of the Middle East

When it became clear that the US vote on censuring Iran would have no impact one way or the other the brandon administration voted for censure, cause, you know, election year.

"The Biden administration was reluctant to take any action that could prompt Iran to ratchet up its nuclear program and further limit access to international inspectors. Had it voted against the European-led measure, however, the administration would have faced accusations in an election year that it was being too soft on Iran."​

 

In Trump's America, these would most likely still be alive - not brutally murdered by thugs with Biden's implicit approval (are we going to pretend that he and his advisors didn't know what kind of people would come streaming across our open border?):

He allegedly immediately embarked upon a crime spree and would go on to be arrested 6 times for 14 different crimes spread out over a two-month period. On June 28, he robbed a Costco store and was subsequently released without having to pay bail due to the city’s bail reform laws. A week later, he robbed a Duane Reade store in Manhattan and allegedly attempted to stab a security guard with a large knife at another Duane Reade. Once again, he was released without paying bail. On July 31, the illegal alien allegedly attacked an independent journalist who was just finishing up an interview with him with a bicycle tire. He fled but was later arrested. Less than a month later, the Venezuelan national was apprehended after allegedly violently attacking a woman. Martinez grabbed the woman’s hair, dragged her across the ground, and kicked her while destroying her phone. Although he was charged with assault, criminal mischief, possession of a weapon, and menacing, Martinez once again avoided serious consequences and was granted supervised release from jail. Three days later he was detained for threatening to assault a stranger with a chain. Several days later, when he was arrested for stealing bicycles, Martinez requested medical attention. As a police officer was attempting to change his handcuffs, Martinez attacked the officer by kicking him and stomping on his feet, an attack which sent him to Riker’s Island jail.

According to Breitbart News: “During a press conference (…), Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz (D) and Cheektowaga Police Chief Brian Gould suggested that DocGo, the medical company that was awarded a $400 million contract by Adams to bus migrants of New York City, attempted to obstruct the investigation into the sexual assault case.” Poloncarz, previously a supporter of Mayor Adam’s policy of busing migrants out of NYC to other cities changed his mind as result of the assault and called for Adams to stop the busing.

Erie County District Attorney John Flynn (D) minimized the crime by claiming that the alleged rapist and victim are “definitely some type of couple” and “clearly knew one another,” callously downplaying the plight of the alleged victim in an attempt to defend the busing of illegal aliens to the county.

• On August 2, ICE officers apprehended an unnamed Nigerian illegal alien with a long history of sexual assaults in Lanham, Maryland. The ICE press release explains that “[t]he Nigerian citizen lawfully entered the United States as a nonimmigrant on July 24, 2015, but later violated the terms of his admission.” On December 20, 2017, he was arrested in Prince George’s County (Maryland) for first and second-degree rape against a minor and again on February 7, 2019, for sex crimes against the same minor. The Circuit Court for Prince George’s County in Upper Marlboro gave the illegal alien a 20-year sentence. However, he did not have to spend one day in jail because 15 years were suspended, while the remaining 5 consisted of supervised probation. Another 10-year sentence had all 10 years suspended while he again received 5 years of supervised probation. Not surprisingly, such lenient treatment did not deter further crimes. It was reported that, “[t]he Prince George’s County Police Department again arrested and charged him with the crimes of sex offense third degree; assault second degree; and sex offense fourth degree/sex contact against another Maryland female on Sept 25, 2021.” On March 25, 2022, the District Court for Prince George’s County in Upper Marlboro ordered charges against him to be marked as “stet,” which meant making them inactive (i.e., non-prosecutable) if the illegal alien abides by the conditions of the stet.

Since arriving at the home in Lancaster County around July 16th, 2023, Gomez-Lopez had allegedly forced the victim to work inside and outside of the home to repay the debt incurred for the transportation. The victim also reported that food had been withheld from her for five days prior to contact with Sheriff’s Deputies. The investigation also revealed that the victim was subjected to sexual contact by Gomez-Lopez.” (Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office, August 2, 2023)

He was taken into custody after accidentally leaving his phone at a local pizza shop, leading employees to discover disturbing content. Hurtado Campos was a popular soccer coach in Franklin and had apparently lived in the U.S. illegally for 20 years. He had previously been arrested for public intoxication in 2005 and three times for driving without a license in 2006, 2015 and 2016. Mystery also surrounds the question of how the illegal alien managed to become a referee with the U.S. Soccer Federation, which would have required a background check. (Breitbart News, July 16, 2023)
• On June 15, West Springfield Police arrested Honduran national Hyrum Baquedano Rodriguez (24) in Fairfax County, Virginia, for allegedly breaking into an apartment, burglarizing it, and attempting to kidnap a 4-year-old girl.

According to Breitbart News, he “was transferred to Eloy, Arizona, days later, after being given a Notice to Appear (NTA) in immigration court. A federal immigration judge then issued a $15,000 bail for Rodriguez. Months later, in January 2019, he bailed out of federal custody.” ICE filed detainers for Baquedano Rodriguez four times in November 2021, July 2022, November 2022, and February 2023 but these were ignored each time by Fairfax County on the grounds of its “sanctuary” status.

George Clooney, Julia Roberts and Barbra Streisand were among those in attendance at the star-studded event, which reportedly raised more than $30 million.

Tickets for Saturday's gala at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, which an invitation described as a "historic night," ranged from $250 for a single person to get in the door to half a million dollars for special access, photos with Biden and former President Obama and invitations to an after-party.

 

Is this a spoof?

 

The only Republican fix for the economy is more tax cuts for the rich. Then they blame the Democrats for the growth in the national debt.
