Biden is Dumping Soaring Coffee Prices from CPI Reporting to Make His Economic Data Sound Better

Joe Biden is pulling out all the stops to make his failing economy sound just a bit better. His latest move is to dump soaring coffee prices from the Consumer Price Index (CPI) because it is just one more metric that is driving his data to look bad.

By dumping the soaring coffee prices, Biden’s Department of Labor can make his economic data sound better.

But coffee is a major part of what most Americans buy each month — and often daily — in their day-to-day lives. Dumping coffee is removing a key expense that 73 percent of the country spend.

Grocery prices have soared 30 percent. Gas prices are also soaring.

When CNN asked Biden about this, he disgorged a major lie:

What tosh. Meanwhile, inflation was 1.4 percent when Biden took office. And now it is more than 9 percent.

Biden’s CPI rose another 0.4 percent in Feb.

Coffee prices have also been soaring.

But now the coffee metric is being skewed by having coffee dropped from the CPI.
