"Hey Joe, stop the malarky! Inflation is real.”

A new billboard in New York City’s Times Square shows President Biden face-palming next to a revolving ticker of rising consumer prices, roasting the commander-in-chief for boasting about last year’s economy.

The billboard’s headline says: “Hey Joe, stop the malarky! Inflation is real.” Referring elsewhere to “DemFlation,” it adds: “Small businesses and all Americans are feeling the pain.”

The animated ticker displays year-over-year cost increases from the Consumer Price Index for bacon, gasoline, meat, eggs, heating oil and used cars. While the price of bacon jumped by 18.6% from December 2020 to December 2021, the cost of gasoline at the pump went up by 49.6%." [WashingtonTimes]
