This is not a spoof. This is an actual broadcast from the White House Twitter account. Apparently the Biden administration has hired the same public relations firm used by North Korea to manage their messaging:
Yes comrades, pay no attention to the actual receipts you receive from the local grocery store. Please ignore massive price increases in food you might be experiencing at the supermarket. These things are simply illusions. Despite the official inflation records on food pricing provided by the U.S. government, Bureau of Labor and Statistics [SEE HERE, Table 7], according to those who control the oval office our food is actually cheaper this year.
Comrades, we must appreciate the efforts of the Democrat People’s Republic of Krazy (DPRK) and congratulate the Biden administration for achieving a record-breaking new level of absurdity in the distribution of propaganda. Smiles everyone, smiles…. you saved 16 cents.
On a serious note, this extreme level of gaslighting only highlights how the White House must be very concerned about what is about to happen to them in the next election cycle. Even the most devout leftists are calling out the Biden administration in response to this tweet. [Go Look At The Comments]
Even Baghdad Blitzer cannot pull this con off….
Hot dogs … not steaks which are going for $60 in a pack of four in my local sam’s club warehouse (the cheapest place I can find them).
So this is complete B.s.
Hot dogs? Beef hotdogs are over $5 bucks a pound where I live – ground beef is $4+ for 80% lean. Expect all this to get worse over time. The MSM (main stream morons) are completely ignoring all the record cold temperatures (far greater in number than record heat) and the resulting agricultural failures worldwide. Southern Brazil just experienced a freeze that damaged coffee and sugar cane crops, and their winter is only a few days old – August is usually colder. According to Danish officials Greenland received 9 gigatonness, i.e., 9 billion tonnes, of snow (equivalent to 9 cubic kilometers of water) in LATE JUNE. Famine is on the horizon, and we are more likely headed for another mini ice age. This is due to low to nonexistent sunspot activity, not carbon dioxide levels.
Now where have I seen this
model of a Small Group of Wealthy, Stupid, Out of Touch Elites lording it over and showing utter contempt for the populace?
Besides just before every Revolution in History, I mean.
Answer: The Middle School Mafia Dictatorship of The Cool Kids.
It’s their contempt “let them eat $0.16 of cake” that will build their guillotines.
The Founders Radicalized, Organized, Militarized, Trained, Mobilized.
Now don’t forget that the $0.16 savings is for feeding 10 people so it is actually only 1.6 cents per person of cake!
Ahh, my mistake. A nibble rather than a bite then.
Fascist propaganda.
I only want to talk about happy things man.
Me too. Biden is an illegitimate President. The Presidential election “results” should be overturned.
That would make me happy.
Mussolini in a town square sounds good to me.
Would need a large town square for a string-orchestra.
Measures taken.
IDK… I kinda like draw and quarter.
Wow! It may take me hours to decide how to best spend/save my 16 cents. Be still, my beating heart!
It’s not enough to give you an upvote. I had to hop on to say: hahahahahahaha!!!! (Of course everything is a laugh/cry these days, but this one leaned toward laugh. The sarcasm was just so perfect!
Concur!
Thanks Sarah, I’d posted “satire” knowing it wasn’t quite the right word.
You had the right one, “sarcasm”.
Be a good comrade and return it to the party……
Yes, I hear people are dying to pay more taxes.
And if you’re not, eventually, the fascists in power will make sure that happens, too.
Only extremists don’t want to pay mor taxes.
Oh the Tree-ers are cookin today!
PR, you demonstrate a mastery of sarcasm, well played!
As Mr. Sarcasm Don Rickles said in “Kelly’s Heroes”
“You win a cookie.”
Me, I want to put 16 pennies in an envelope and send to her..with a note ..not to spend it all in one place!
But the cost of the stamp is double the 16 cents!
Can you send it postage due upon receipt?
Oh gee, aw shucks, that’s more than the last quarter’s $0.01 interest that I received on my savings account…..
Hmm…attend the family cookout to realize my $0.16 windfall, or skip the gathering and send my portion to DC and help pay down the $4,000,000,000,000.00 or so in new debt that Mumbles & Co grifted…uh, gifted to us all? It’s a tough call.
hahahahaha. A lot of Treepers have posted truly hilarious, sarcastic, snarky comments today and provided much needed laughter (albeit of the laugh/cry variety). Your comment was another LOL here in our household!
The Great Leap Forward is here! Farmer Gates will take of US!!
And as Tan Zhenlin, a political commissar in the PLA & politician after the establishment of the People’s Republic of China said when addressing the leaders of South China in October 1958: ‘You need to fight against the peasants . . . There is something ideologically wrong with you if you are afraid of coercion.’
“Dem members of Congress have taken political and social “cleansing” even further, insisting that Republicans, conservatives, and anybody who supported or supports Donald Trump should be sent to “re-education camps” and “deprogrammed.” :

Well when an election is stolen then lie about it, I guess lying about cost of foods is non sequitur.
Take your pail to the radio station. Milk is plentiful there. (dark Soviet humor)
Milk up almost 30¢ in one week
The Peets Place bag of coffee to go with that milk, size reduction of one and one half ounces and price up a dollar per bag…your milk comment made me want to buy a cow and then I remembered the following:
Jokes of this type attracted the attention of a scholar in the US as early as 1944. An article in The Modern Language Journal lists the following classical ones:[1]
Hat tip–Wikipedia
Oooh thats good
I got to admit I was very disappointed on what happened on the 6th of January.
I was truly hoping they’d follow through with the pitchforks and the guillotines. It would have been awesome to see the likes of Pelosi, Mad Max and Pencil Neck do their perp walks en route to their Stairway To Hell.
Am I the only one to notice MSDNC’s Peter Alexander looking pained– like his butt plug was bothering him– as Peter Doocy asked about the 16 cents relative to 1 dollar gas price hikes?
I am shocked that the “Let them eat cake.” cake was omitted from the pathetic photo.
The pic of the Nork family is spooky and terrifying.
It’s almost as if they were witnessing one of KJ’s enemies being eaten alive by dogs.
That $.16 will go a long way toward mitigating the $.72/gallon increase in the cost of a gallon of gas since Installation Day (1/20/21) won’t it? There must have been a lot of sale items in this year’s Independence Day BBQ. Most of the things that I shop for have experienced a negative price drop! Good thing this BBQ is hot dogs with ketchup and relish. Had it been chicken, just wow! At my store, chicken legs have increased $.21/lb since Installation Day. Hamburger is up about 10% as well. At the current rate, next year’s Independence Day BBQ will be pork and beans–no sauce, no seasoning, no molasses. Then they can claim the price is down (maybe) and we should all be happy!
These idiots are so disconnected from America they don’t even know what a 4th cookout is! Look at the items.
What is the cheese for? There are no buns. Who eats ground beef in a skillet? What is that green stuff on the plate? It sure don’t look like lettuce. And how many people grill pork chops?
It’s obvious that they put this together because they could cherry pick a few items that may not have gone up. If you put together a real cookout menu it would include buns, potato salad and coleslaw, burgers hot dogs and chicken, and NOT Coke.
I can just see Kamala and her condescending head shake up and down up and down up and down saying “We know how to cookout” after having her catered crap.
Not to burst your bubble, but a lot of our beef (and chicken) is raised in Mexico, then they bring the cattle over to the US side, slaughter and process the meat here, and that enables the USDA to slap their label on it. We have no idea what we’re buying anymore when we buy beef and chicken, where the animals were raised, or what those animals were fed (though you can be sure it was junk). This might explain why many doctors are seeing a notable uptick in B12 deficiencies. It could be that beef ain’t what it used to be. Then again, is anything?…
The beef in that skillet looks like a vegan substitute.
Do you know where we can find this info, in some publication?
Talk to folks in the U.S. who raise cattle for beef. They are struggling mightily. Another challenge for smaller ranchers is how to compete w/beef from outside of the U.S. since we have dozens of regulations while countries like Argentina have virtually none. They can’t complete, financially. I did a quick bit of research to see if I could find anything online and there’s precious little, as one might imagine, because it’s my impression that a lot of what’s going on is under cover of darkness, as it were. But I did find these links should they be of interest:

Sarah…. This got held in moderation due to having more than the allowed 4 links. Next time, just break it down into 2 seperate posts. 😉
Will do. Sorry about that. Thank you for letting me know for future reference.
Good point Sarah, and people should really check into who exactly is working in our slaughter houses now days.
Hint, it is not American citizens any more.
The people in charge of packaging a lot of the food we consume now days would give a lot of us the creeps if we knew more about things.
Washing and cooking helps but still…………
Yes and abuse of the slaughterhouse workers is disgraceful.
Recall reading stories of pregnant women not being allowed potty breaks. Ugh
Oh yeah. Man by the name of Orville Schell wrote a book called “Modern Meat”. If you have anybody in your family with lupus, asthma or some other vague autoimmune disease, might want to check out this book at the library and read cover to cover.
Included: the history of how a Puerto Rican chicken provider had fed so much estradiol to the chicks (to make them grow faster) that little boys grew breasts and five year old girls began menstruating
The greed of some people is absolutely boundless
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3928858/
Thank you for posting that book recommendation. Indeed, we don’t know what the animal that becomes our meat was fed or injected with (hormones being among many chemicals they’re given) that impacts our health. It’s amazing to think we buy meat in the store that says “Made in USA” when the animal never spent a single day of it’s life on US soil. It’s criminal, like so many things anymore that become a norm, as people look the other way and those in the know (such as small U.S. ranchers) suffer in silence.
Someone upstream on this thread (I think on page 1) just posted this fantastic link of resource of beef that is actually from the United States:
https://usabeef.org/producer-list/
Good point Mike!
That looks like the blandest cookout menu I’ve seen in a long while. No wonder the dems are a bunch of miserable sh*ts.
Gosh I miss Sonny’s Real-Pit barbecue and Larry’s Giant Subs. Life ain’t been the same since leaving Florida.
I thought the same thing Baby El.
A real blah bunch of crappy looking food that my family doesn’t eat on the 4th.
They even managed to make those two chunks of grilled beef or pork or whatever they were look unappealing.
And what is that gross looking stuff in the frying pan?
Burnt tofu?
“What is that green stuff on the plate? It sure don’t look like lettuce.”
Soylent Green is a low cost nutrient and essential ingredient, with a taste and texture that guarantees you the best barbecue ever.
Even the Leftist paper “The Nation” knows that the Farm Bureau is simply a folksy cover organization for Big Ag…why would ANYONE care about or believe ANYTHING they have to say?!!

8 hamburger buns with 2 lbs. of hamburger meat. Looks like we’re gonna have to draw straws to see which 2 don’t get a hamburger. 13oz bag of potato chips for 10 people? That’s about 4 chips per person. Hell, if that’s a typical 4th of July meal for 10 people, how’d we get so overweight? I’m beginning to think that maybe this administration is not being truthful with us. /sarc
exactly, I don’t know why anyone here is even acknowledging the false premise of it going down 16 cents. The lie is not that its such a small amount – the lie is that prices arent going down and everyone knows it.
Saving .16 on Great Value hotdog buns at Walmart!
Anyone else addicted to the everything Ballpark hamburger buns?
We have been grilling every day and I will not feel guilty about the amount of burgers eaten.
Leftist logic is always positive, never normative.
They discuss the world as it should be, not as it is.
When we land in leftist utopia, all problems will be solved, all questions will be answered.
You cannot argue/reason with leftists, you can only defeat them.
The few Republicans who claim to be able to reason with leftists, like Romney, think they have carved out a space for themselves where leftist madness will not get at them. They are wrong.
Leftist logic is teenager logic. They are good at complaining and rebelling righteously against corrupt sinful authorities.
lack of life experience tends to make them less than competent managers, though. They don’t imagine the consequences of misjudgments
You may save 16 cents on the cookout, but you and/or your guests will spend $10 to $30+ more in gas getting there – so there’s that.
Eric C. if you use common core math it works.
LOL!!!
Our Winn Dixie, that no one goes to, is bragging about a regular pack of Nathan’s hot dogs for $9.99 in an attempt to gaslight the chronic feeders. They’ll get it from some of the registered democrats/ESLs/ENLs, which is a good thing in the bigger scheme of things. (See their weekly Wednesday add in SWFL)
The regime will not use the term “Independence Day.”
The 4th of July is a day on the calendar.
They conveniently omit mentioning that costs are UP over 8% from July 2019.
With vehicle fuel up approximately 50% in my area, a fill-up now costs me about $40 instead of around $25 (or even less under the Trump Administration).
So… in order to “make lemonade out of lemons”, here’s what to do:
Buy 94 packs of hotdogs. At $0.16 savings per pack, that adds up to saving the $15 difference in filling up.
Want to save even more? Buy more packs of hotdogs! If you buy enough packs of ‘dogs’, you might even save enough for a down-payment on a new car!
(Boy am I glad I took one of those new “diversity and equity of outcome” math classes – look at how practically I can apply my newly-gained knowledge!)
Don’t count on being able to afford a new car, or even a used one. They are both in short supply, like housing.
Something about parts for China.
Get a used Prius… They will probably escape new onerous regs, very comfy cars, reliable. Mines 11 years old, and I still love it.
That’s actually 60% increase, in my area it is 75% price increase since Trump was ousted.
Sam Wright ‘That’s actually 60% increase..’
Wait a second…
Are you saying they taught me the incorrect meaning of the word “approximately” in my “new math” class?
Say it isn’t so!
When you are an engineer approximate means alot less than 10% difference…. more like +/- 1% sorry no pun intended….
Sam Wright ‘When you are an engineer approximate means alot less than 10% difference…. more like +/- 1% sorry no pun intended….’
One needs to assume an engineer’s precision to approximate prices of vehicle fuel? I didn’t know… Learn something new every day…
Anyways, I was just using the approximate meaning of “approximate” (not the “engineer’s” definition). Think, “roughly”. Of course, “roughly” might be wantonly out-of-bounds as well, to an engineer. /shrug
Is “alot” an engineering term? I’ve seen “a lot”, and “allot”, but I’m not as highly educated…
Keep in mind folks that the supposed savings of 16 cents is for serving 10 people at the cookout. So you’re saving 1.6 cents per person! Such a deal we have for you, eh!?!
What is wrong with this White House? Biden is a joke..but I’m not laughing.
The comments are worth gold, though. Funniest thread ever. Our Alinsky skills have improved dramatically.
Pondering the Presidential Politics news of the day begets questions.
1. Given “let them eat $0.16 of cake” plus “Just happy thoughts, man!”
[aside, “Could they be dosing him with Weed?”]
How long can they keep this Dog and Pony (you decide which one is which) Charade going?
Who takes over when the Show Folds? Will somebody step out from behind the curtain, or another Charlie McCarthy be shuffled on stage?
2. As Huckabee observed to Bongino (in for Hannity) yesterday:
(paraphrase) “Camella, might be the one person who can make Joe Biden look competent.”
So who is sitting in the Club House to replace her?
I think Moosell.
Might have been the CCP plan all along.
This is a joke right?
How bizarre is that twit?
Not really.
These gangster commies are just MAGA Trolling.
Have a Great 4th America.
These idiots haven’t been to the grocery store. Most prices are obscene.
“On a serious note, this extreme level of gaslighting only highlights how the White House must be very concerned about what is about to happen to them in the next election cycle. ”
You mean “selection cycle”. With Dominion on your team elections are cinch.
I see how they saved $0.16. This year we get to share 1 can of pork n’ beans instead of 2 and eat hot dogs instead of hamburgers because this year hamburger meat is twice as expensive.
Economics 101.
I call this the ‘ let them eat tripe’ method of calculating food inflation. When some items increase substitute
I found a penny in the parking lot yesterday. Does that come off my $246.79 grocery bill? I only go to town once a month and we have a big veg garden and also eat a lot of wild meat but I was still floored at the grocery bill.
We’re saving 16% of a dollar.
Doesn’t THAT sound more impressive?
New name for Biden…. ’16Cent’.
Sweet 16 Scents 🙂
I like his spirit!
“Spirit” might not be the best word to use when describing Dems and cooking…
Oooooh!
They wouldn’t have to tweet this if they weren’t deeply worried about inflation.
Democrats will ALWAYS tell you what they fear by claiming it didn’t happen, and they will always tell you what they are doing by accusing you of doing it.
Don’t spend that dime, nickel, and penny all in one place!
Hokkoda, are you suggestion that the graying hippy-hive in our Whitehouse even knows what inflation is ??
Great post as always. You are right on point.
It’s a bizarre tweet. Sixteen cents.
I remember these same people mocking Bush 41 over a grocery scanner. Yet they somehow think sixteen cents is good.
Is that .16 on each hotdog? Or is it .16 because wokacola is losing money because of stupid leftist ideology? I’m trying to figure it out so I can stock up. At these prices I’ll be able to afford a piece of bubblegum in no time.
Never mind the extra $2 per gallon of gas it takes us to drive to the grocery store. ?
And yet….. another insult to every American.
What an embarrassment to anybody in this country who can tie their own shoes……………….. Sounds like this was written by Joint COS Chairman Mark Miley (5 Star General Yellowbelly), and the fairy tales continue.
Nice to know we have petulant and vindictive children calling the shots for our recently installed Dumbzombie from the Whitehouse, with his greasy haired, cackling cockroach in waiting…………
Patriots, this is a living nightmare.
Well, that won’t help me. I only do “Independence Day” BBQ’s.
I read the comments on the twatter feed. The Useful Idiots were also commenting.. pretending to not know what is happening
T-Bones in SW Missouri on Nov 2nd 2020 was $7.99/pound, as of yesterday they were$22.50/pound. I know math is racist, but I believe that is higher than last year
Weiner’s at a 10 year high.?
Biden’s 16 Cent savings doesn’t measure up ?
Nothing about Biden measures up, including his IQ.
His votes
His ability
The list goes on to his short comings.
has a few character flaws, too (like corruption, lying, plagarism, bribery) but no one in the DC press corps gives a damn.
If hot dogs are actually cheaper, I have to wonder what happened to the body of the Biden’s dog.
DC, all of it has turned into DRCBs…..dirty rotten communist bastards.
I found the .16 savings. It’s in the picture. You can save all of that money by serving water, yes it’s tap water but you can add ice and have a real cool drink. Of course if you add the straws they are .05 each but who eats straws anyway.
These people are stupid.
Well, you need to freeze that ice. Savings lost.
Peak gaslighting?
Maybe the dead people who voted for this can roll over in their graves now.
-$0.16, BFD, GAS +$1.30/gal.
Math is racist! Didn’t you get the memo?
No. Those are the new acceptable SAT scores…
Why do I have this great urge to put 16 pennies in an envelope and send to Jen?
I note that there is not a single American flag in that “4th of July” tweet.
I just left the grocery where I was in line behind a customer whose cart was over flowing with steak ,ribs, sausage, drinks, etc… & paid for it with EBT cards, so there’s that….grrrrr
I see it all the time…. these Welfare bums should be forced labor, picking up trash along the roads, or doing something within their cities to receive that free tax payer LOOT.
We got a few section 8 housing complexes one of them I go by all the time, the baby momma factories popping out welfare brats are in full swing. What a disgrace this country has become on the back of the Hardworking overtaxed people. These Welfare Scum should be at a minimum mowing our lawns, or doing something for those thousands in free welfare per month they steal from us.
Same during the Carter years. Husband was unemployed and I was eight months pregnant. Got in line behind some dude with a ton of expensive meat, three kids in tow. The government paid for the food.
And probably those kids, too.
These propagandists are a low as a human can get…..purposeful lying scum.
