[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, all the Murdoch outlets are pushing this story. [/quote]

It isn’t just the Murdoch companies. It’s the entire right-wing media conspiracy Hillary spoke accurately about back in the 1990s.

It’s actually amazing how predictable it is. What wedge issues are they going to blow out of proportion and then cry bias that the professional news media isn’t following suit?

It’s a little like the Daily Wire’s bizarre fascination with culture war stories about Northern Virginia. The right wing media complex is hell-bent on disinformation [/quote]

Neither DC crime, nor the border, nor inflation are real issues.  [/quote]

100%.  It's all overblown and being misrepresented.

Crime is bad.  I get it.  Other people here get it to.  But our rate of violent crime is better than those other cities.  It's like people in Ward 3 flipping out over a single digit increase in a type of crime, when from a level perspective they are way, way, way below the rest of the city.

These articles all lack perspective.[/quote]

lol. “inflation is not an issue” is the latest progressive Twitter spin attempt now that “crime is not a problem” has failed. so clueless. [/quote]

Inflation *was* a problem for a small amount of time. It no longer is a huge problem.

what a dummy[/quote]

The fed has already taken action to curb inflation.  That's already had an effect.  They are leaving those actions in place and benchmark interest rates are still elevated.  But they did it in a cautious way so as not to run too hard into stagflation.  It's called a soft landing, and by all accounts, its working as intended.  If you're pissed off because the place you work for isn't giving you a raise, then take it up with your boss, who probably took out a PPP loan and bought a boat or some shit which was partly what drove a ton of this in the first place, or get a new job - because unemployment is near all time lows.[/quote]
