“Inflation is going up.”
— House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Wednesday
We say: Sorry, but the seasonally adjusted consumer price index has been lower in each of the three months (through April) since President Trump took office than during any of the last three months of President Joe Biden’s term.
In March, it even went negative, falling by 0.1%. Alas, facts don’t matter to the House Democratic leader.
“Here’s the ‘We Are All Going To Die’ Act ”
— Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
We say: Schumer’s name for the GOP’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” is meant to scare folks into thinking the slightly slower spending growth it calls for will deprive them of critically needed health care.
Baloney: As The Post notes, the minor slowdown comes as Medicaid spending has soared 60% since just 2019, threatening to bankrupt the nation; tightening rules to prevent fraud and waste won’t cost lives — but it could save America.


We say: Funny how the nearly identical gesture, which unintentionally resembled a Nazi salute, sparked outrage from lefties when Musk (then a Trump ally) made it yet radio silence from them when Democratic Sen. Cory Booker did.
We say: Will the lefty press never stop treating lies spread by Gaza’s Health Ministry (which answers to Hamas terrorists) as fact?
The report about Israeli troops opening fire was 100% false — which is why The WaPo later admitted its error.
Yet the paper wasn’t the only major news outlet to parrot Hamas’ defamatory slurs against Israel.
And it’s part of a pattern — the worst was the false claim that Israel bombed a Gazan hospital, killing 500 — meant to slur the Jewish state as genocidal and Hamas as the victim. It’s beyond reckless.
