President Joe Biden on Tuesday blamed Republicans and the Russian invasion of Ukraine for soaring US inflation, in a bid to deflect voter anger over his inability to keep prices down. Speaking to trade unions in Philadelphia on the eve of the Federal Reserve's likely decision to raise interest rates again, Biden said inflation is "sapping the strength of a lot of families."

Biden has been in over his head for a long time now. I remember another Senator diplommatically saying that Joe relies on his staff to a degree that is unusual even for D.C. And it's an open secret Obama considered him a simpleton.

He is like a child that ate the cupcake after mom told him he couldn’t have one. So later Mom comes in and the kid has chocolate all over his face Andy hands and mom asks him if he knows what happened to the cupcakes because one is missing, and the kid says he doesn’t know what happened to the missing cupcake.

The sad thing is, I look a Joe Biden and rank him lower than Saddam and Quaddafi. I think he may be tied with Mugabe of Zimbabwe and he may be barely above Idi Amin. Regardless he and his administration along with Rinos and Democrats (at the National and State levels) have taken a once-great country and placed it on par with several banana republics.

Biden believes all Americans are as stupid as those who voted for him. He has been peeing down our legs and telling us it was raining for his entire term so far. No one with a brain believes the Russians and Republicans are responsible for the disaster he has brough on us with that one signature attacking oil companies and closing down pipeline he signed on 1-20-21.

Well, I was pretty certain he wasn't planning to blame Joe Biden, And gee, I guess it was the Republicans' fault. We left him energy independence, low fuel prices, low inflation, a world more-or-less at peace, a controlled southern border, and COVID vaccines. It's easy to see how that could have led to the calamities of the past year and a half.

Despite a wave of negative news coverage and reports that Democrats are ready to junk President Joe Biden in 2024, he still leads all other potential challengers by a good margin. In the latest Zogby Poll, provided to Secrets today, Biden’s support among Democratic voters is 41%. His only weakness appears to be among younger voters. Former first lady Michelle Obama, who has signaled no interest in running, remains in second at 16% followed by Vice President Kamala Harris at 11%.

The move is “in the best strategic interest of the company,” Chief Executive Jim Umpleby said in a statement. The heavy-machinery maker has had a presence in Texas since the 1960s, it said. Even with the move, Illinois has the largest concentration of Caterpillar employees anywhere in the world, the company said. The headquarters was historically in downstate Peoria, Ill.

Republicans in Congress have called for more domestic production to increase the supply of oil in order to reduce the cost.

President Biden's Energy Department has proposed a new rule that would require homeowners looking to buy a new furnace to install a 95 percent energy-efficient one within the next seven years. The new rule would require that gas-burning residential furnaces be condensing gas furnaces, which reuse gas and water vapor that normal noncondensing furnaces vent into the atmosphere. It would require that all gas-burning furnaces on the market to be switched over by 2029.(Snip)The Department of Energy (DOE) estimates that the new furnaces will save households about $60 per year, a number that totals $30.3 billion over the next 30 years.
