Today brought with it another press conference headed up by Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and her Big Book of Talking Points.
We’ll kick things off with KJP’s heads-up about what June’s inflation numbers will show:

In other words ...
Storm Paglia (@storm_paglia) ~ Lol ... so it’s gonna be horrendous.
Pretty much. Also, weren’t we told inflation would be “transitory” a while back? We’d swear that’s what they promised.
Will. Power - Dragon Truth Bringer (@KIR_bigg50) ~ Hahahahahah!!!! They're trying to jump out in front of this out of control bus.
𝐒𝐚𝐦 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐩𝐞𝐫, 𝐏𝐡𝐃 (@woodhull_abe) ~ They're panicking.
But otherwise, the economy is humming along nicely on all cylinders, according to Jean-Pierre:
Townhall.com (@townhallcom) ~ KJP: "We have a strong economy."

How strong is the economy? So strong that the White House doesn’t even need to look at polls to know how popular this administration’s policies have been:
Townhall.com (@townhallcom) ~ REPORTER: "63% of Democrats believe the country is headed in the wrong direction. How do you explain that?"
KJP: "We understand what the American people are feeling."

Townhall.com (@townhallcom) ~ KJP: "We're not gonna pay attention to polls. That's not what we're gonna do here."

Perhaps not paying attention to polls (does anybody actually believe that?) is what allows the Biden White House to do a record-setting amount of gaslighting with straight faces.
