Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) sought to avoid any responsibility for Wednesday’s devastating inflation report, and the 40-year-old blamed supply chain problems associated with the pandemic alongside Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Chinese coronavirus and the “corporate monopoly”. It’s not the bad economic policies of the Democrats who completely control Washington DC.
“The energy shock from Putin’s war, the pandemic, supply chains are still stumbling and all corporate monopolies that raise prices are driving inflation,” the left-wing Democrat said after a report that saw annual inflation rise to 9.1 percent.
“I am very worried that the Fed is not ready to respond and that raising interest rates could trigger a recession. Congress needs to move forward too,” Warren continued, urging Congress to take action by allowing billionaire companies to pay the lowest taxes, invest in affordable childcare, and negotiate Medicare prescription drug price reductions.
“We must use every tool to reduce the costs of working families,” he said, not mentioning that Democrats have complete control over Washington DC. He also made no mention of the Biden administration’s abolition of American energy independence or weak monetary policy – borrowing and printing large amounts of money:
Congress can fight inflation by forcing billionaire companies to pay the lowest taxes, investing in affordable childcare, and allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug price cuts.
We must use every means possible to reduce the costs of working families.

Senator Ted Cruz (D-Texas) is among those who are already open to “throwing” Democrats.
