This interview is nothing but gaslighting crazy talk from an insufferable ideologue who is responsible for managing the insane policy driven consequences of transitioning from oil, gas and coal into an era where windmills and solar panels provide U.S. electricity. Janet Yellen is the decline manager.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen begins the interview by denying the U.S. economy is shrinking. Literally in the first answer Yellen says the economy “has been growing at a very rapid rate as the labor rate has reached full employment, it’s natural now that we expect a transition to steady and stable growth.” Obviously, in order to say the economy has been growing, Yellen needs to pretend not to know the first quarter GDP was -1.5% as measured. But wait… it gets more ridiculous….
At 06:30 of the interview, Yellen claims with a straight face that U.S. energy policy, which includes massive amounts of new crushing regulations from Biden, is not responsible for U.S. oil and gasoline prices. WATCH (prompted):

Excellent thread – @DoombergT
If oil were $ 20 a barrel today would that help or hurt Putin ? The answer is obvious.
shes a handsome woman.
Seems to be a common trait of far left women.
Are you a biologist?
Well played.
How many 6 packs have you had to come to that conclusion?
How many 6 packs would you need to down, to SLEEP with that,..oh, never mind.
Trump would say “Janet Yellen, another beaut!”.
Useless she-dog.
‘Nuff said.
If you look at the cast of characters coming out of the WEF, you naturally come to the conclusion that they are highly insecure , easily manipulated, and lacking in critical thinking skills. There’s no other explanation. They’ve all drunk the koolaid.
indoctrinated into the dark arts.
the compromise was early for most of these so called power players.
they see you and me as enemies..
they see themselves as above the law and “chosen” to rule the world as they see fit.
this is what happens when there are no consequences for poor performance in USG. this is what happens when unelected people make national security decisions….
this is what happens when THE PEOPLE let that happen.
I have not totally abandoned the theory,…that they are “pod people” that the actual people were vaporised, and a reproduction made to take their place, that Schwab is actually a space alien,…asigned to enslave mankind.
These alian pod people all share certain characteristics, perhaps most prominent is an inability to experience or project compassion, or humility; traits of HUMANITY.
There are countless examples of them, on video LAUGHING at the prospect of us proles suffering, as a result of their policies.
USED to be politicians PRETENDED to care, now they can’t be bothered.
Definetly something WEIRD going on at Davos.
If Putin “goes Nuke” THAT should be the target coordinates, Davos Switzerland.
Careful now. Are you sure you’re using Yellen’s pronoun of choice? If not, you might be led off in shackles for a hate crime.
Hey, remind me again, who was that guy who made the USA energy independent?
Maybe someone should ask him what to do!
That defeats the Lefty purpose.
Think we’re going to have the last laugh on the energy issue. People are pissed.
they pack the admin with spokes-people who not only dissemble on command but do so, so poorly, so blatantly that you wish to punch through the tv set.
they are so bad at lying that its as if they are purposefully trolling us–that they get satisfaction by our knowing they’re lying and our being unable to do anything about it.
They are indeed purposefully trolling us with lies. They get a thrill out of tormenting us (for our own good, no doubt) ‘non-believers’ of their theology.
She is up there with Madeleine “Too-Bright.”
Half-Bright.
Hey you unqualified hack, you don’t have the expertise to even comment on this. The White House imbecile, is fully responsible for the outrageous gas prices.
Ms. Yellen has a bad case of the lies.
No shame in bald face lying anymore…is shame a thing still? Apparently not.
Can Clozapine do that? She’s about one step from an extra on the Walking Dead.
Please, she’s not even good enough to feed to the Zombies!
This is the same person who last year told all of us not to worry as inflation is transitory.
The only epidemic we have is govt propaganda
They are stalling for time. Running out the clock. They’ve been doing this same thing on immigration since 1970.
Stalling for time would make more sense if we still had real elections in this country.
There will be the illusion of it however as the good guys win some of them but the ones that keep the cabal in power will be the ones we lose.
Why bother pretending to be serious? They know the elections are rigged and thats all that matters.
Do you think Janet is worried about having a noose around her neck when they are the ones controlling all government institutions including the Military.
“Let them hate us so long as they fear us”
Caligula
Thing is, most of us don’t fear them. Most of us are itching to “fix the problem”. The more they tighten the screws, the angrier people get. There’s gonna be unintended consequences. I don’t know how this plays out. I read my Bible and pray.
they are worried about a nationwide J6 with mobs lost in group thought escalating until madness.
(i agree they aren’t worried about elections. They are worried about us stopping believing in elections)
the last sentence IS THEIR WORST FEARS..this is what threatens the deep dark secret police state.
you should post this often in bold.
because that’s the situation.
what does happen when people stop believing in elections?
what happens when people decide to take matters into their own hands?
more than just throwing sand in gears.
it forces the state to go that last mile of control. And that is how revolutionary wars happen.
that’s exactly where this country is headed.

The Mamet Principle strikes again.
How far will you go to get your utopia, drinker of the watermelon kool-aid?
handler says “Hey put that dumb ass old lady up on stage – brief her that everything is fine”
Cannot say that your wrong on that.
She’s definitely part of the outer party ala 1984.
They know their audience never read 1984. Who would believe this shit? Anyone with eyes, ears and/or a functioning brain is compelled by reality to deny the gaslighting of Biden’s Pravda media.
Now the twatters & botters will just blow out the lies like dandelion fluff. No insult intended to dandelions.
At least dandelions serve a useful purpose.
Oil is the life blood of North America’s economy, when Biden and Justine shut down the oil industry they knew it would kill the economy. They did it on purpose, their massive wealth is protected and they are kicking the middle income earners to death with policies right out of Stalin’s era.
Just remember that Communism has to destroy the middle class for it to work. And they are doing it as fast as they can.
It is obvious to everyone the the economy is in the sh^ts and Biden is responsible for it. The Dems think that lying and throwing out these hacks are going to save themselves and their party. Their hero fell off his bike yesterday. Fool. The whole damn Democrat Party wheels are coming off. The people are sick of the lies and don’t believe anything they are spewing.
The media believes everything they are spewing…
She states that demand for fuel is currently less than it was before the Chicom Cooties, but incompetent oil companies did not anticipate such high current demand and are producing less. Yep, got it.
Geez, I wish these nut jobs like Yellen and Stephanopoulous and any Biden admin dingdong would wear paper bags on their heads and just call themselves the “Unknown Commies.”
Demand for fuel is only less because the price is so high that people do everything they can to conserve.
And, the Exon CEO just called their bluff on that talking point. He pretty much said- just go look at our legally required disclosures…we have to to them every year. We invested so that we can be ready for the demand coming out of COVID- except, the government is blocking us from drilling and told us in ten years- we won’t be using petroleum- so why should we continue to invest?
Called the WH’s bluff…but not much coverage on the MSM. Only coverage of FJB’s letter.
Who do they think they are kidding? Surely they don’t honestly believe we are all that stupid.
Or are they so wrapped up in their script and their performance they’ve forgotten or don’t know that many “real” people do know how to think, and the intelligent ones have left the audience?
Blinded by the light…
Another example of the Groucho Principle: “Who are you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?”
Always keep in mind, that no matter the issue, no matter the data, no matter the OBJECTIVE REALITY, they hold to one unshakable position: THEY THINK WE’RE STUPID.
A true child of Satan. The truth is not in her, with her, or from her. Like her father, she is a deceiver and evil because of her deceptions.
They are zeolots, and fanatics.
“Fanatacism consists of redoubling your effort, while neglecting your aim.”
And zeolotry elevates BELIEFS above EVERYTHING; Above logic, above facts, above reality, and above enlightened self interest.
Hence it doesn’t MATTER what the FACTS are, what the lessons of history are, they BELIEVE we are stupid, they BELIEVE their policies are best, and everything else be damned!
“Funny how falling, seems a lot like flying,….right up to the END!”
Right now, having decided to believe that they can fly, simply by jumping from a high place, and holding out their arms, they are enjoying the sensation,..but a niggling voice in their head, sounding like Bill Maher, is starting to question their belief, as the ground rushes up to meet them.
And so, in rote they repeat, over and over “I CAN fly, I CAN fly,…”
The Big Splat is coming,…
Progressives really think their constituents are dumb as a bag of rocks. And, they certainly are
In her defense of this tyranny, Old Yellin is more rabid than Old Yeller.
I cried like a baby when Old Yeller had to be put down…..I’d throw a three day party if Old Yellin were subjected to the same fate, so not all rabid creatures are worth the same…IMO.
Old Yeller was far too intelligent in comparison with this dullard.
A box of rocks comes to mind.
“gaslighting crazy talk”
100%. I’ve never seen it so bad.
These people are dangerous.
I pray the Lord removes them from the earth.
It’s the Leftist way… Take credit for things you had no part in creating and blame everyone else for the fallout of decisions you were warned over and over again not to make!
I’m not watching liars anymore. FJB and Trixie.
When any member of the regime claims that they are not responsible, believe them. They are the most irresponsible Hodge podge of mental misfits ever assembled. But their master marionettes atop the stage upon which they blather would not have it any other way.
She’s not talking to me. Placating, short term, those fleeing communist strong holds that paid overinflated prices for homes. Spent their life savings, and more, on dreams of escaping tyrannical strongholds. Only to have the FED chase them down and deliver the final blow.
Death by a thousand cuts reduced to ten…
The woman is a moron and a liar. Typical of the Usurper Administration.
The tandem stories regarding the delusional Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and the boggle-brained Cleveland Federal Reserve President Loretta Mester remind me of Biden telling us that the Afghanistan withdrawal was the most successful airlift of all time. These fools feel they can say these falsehoods because there is no honest msm to call them out and many people just eat it up. C’mon America!
Janet Yellen is another Yale University Ideologue…..These supposed ‘Elite’ Schools with their ‘Superior’ intellects running our Government has virtually destroyed our Republic and ruined Countries around the World……..
… such incredible fools at the helm!?
All anyone has to do is to just take a look at what is going on in Australia with their green agenda and they will know what is in store for us.
Energy Sec. Granholm claims that Biden “is really focused on preventing these inflationary increases to the extent he can.”
“A recession is not inevitable.”
“The president wants to have a steady and stable recovery.”
“But, of course, one of the greatest pieces of these inflationary increases that we are seeing is the price of fuel.”

Do you mean the Secretary under investigation for IPO participation in EV car manufacturing WHILE implementing new Green Deal policies?
Former Chair of the Federal Reserve. Kid you not.
what a stupid she is,
Energy price inflation may not be exclusively the Biden administration’s fault, but they definitely are substantially the Biden administration’s fault.
That’s some full frontal stupidity on display right there.
Thank you Sundance. You watch this excruciating s**t show so we don’t have to. A magnificent humanitarian service to We The Treepers.
Her head reminds me of a mushroom. And her brain also reminds me of a mushroom.
Yellen is at least partially right. Biden is partially responsible, but it’s not just him. The institution mainly responsible is the Federal Reserve.
The main driver for inflation for all commodities is the money printing that has been done by Fed Chaircritters since Paul Volcker (i.e. Greenspan, Bernanke, Yellen and Jay Powell).
But the increases in all prices including energy could have been mitigated (its impact lessened) by increasing oil and gas production. The Biden administration from Day One has done everything possible to cripple energy production, including cancelling the Keystone XL pipeline, cancelling and refusing to issue new drilling leases, etc.
Energy costs don’t just hit gas prices but flow through to the prices of everything we buy. Increasing energy production reduces the dollar cost of everything.
This is all part of the Green Masochism Agenda the purpose of which is to reverse the Industrial Revolution and return us all to a farming economy.
Why is our Ruling Class doing this? My only conclusion is that they hate humanity in general and Americans in particular.
Because in the near view, this is the direction the globalists want the proles to follow. In the far view, however, these manipulators have no idea that they have no control and very little influence on the next several years, that is already spoken for.
“If you want to amuse God,….make plans.”
Left out Congress, who does have (and exploits it) the “Power of the purse”.
Unless the President plans to dock our nuclear aircraft carriers and plug them into the electric grid, we are in for misery.
The Greenies Biden appointed caused this mess.
His stupid was agreeing with them to sign that Executive Order curtailing fossil fuel.
His next stupid is not reversing course, now.
We have no hope of going green within the next 10 years left before catastrophe strikes!
(I don’t believe in climate change. The sad part is this: Greenies will still believe in it even if the World doesn’t turn into a cinder)
Why is it that every time I see Yellen, all I think is…”follow the yellow brick road…”
But seriously in the SAME sentence she says gas consumption is below prepandemic levels (read: demand is down), and oil companies were caught with their pants down by the “strength of the recovery” (read: demand is up relative to supply)…
She is obviously a card-carrying member of the cabal that is attempting to collapse the republic. Any sentient human that says out loud that windmills and solar can power an advanced economy is lying…whether for money or control. It isn’t possible with available technology and likely never will be. (I’m studiously ignoring the proven efficacy of nuclear, because the left and the regulatory behemoth of The Swamp will never allow nuclear to expanded in the US.)
Mnuchin said that adding green energies are not enough to power our economy, even if used only partially. This fact has not changed.
Yellen is lying.
The problem is that we have royally pissed off all our oil suppliers: Saudi, Russia, Venezuela, Mexico and their pricing is through the roof because there is less supply than demand. Green energies can’t make up the difference.
Mexico has just announced they are not exporting oil starting in 2023. That’s gonna really hurt. Look it up.
Most major producers will do the same, to protect domestic demand. The ones that don’t shut down crude exports will be the ones that have no internal refining capacity, in which case they are screwed. Either way, futures and spot markets will be in chaos for quite a while. As analysis has noted, hydrocarbon production can be trivially shut down, but ramping up takes years. I still maintain the belief that a president (or congress, or regulatory agency) should have no legal authority to revoke permits issued legally to build/do anything. Biden cancelling the billions of dollars of XL Pipeline investments *should* be criminal and not possible.
Exactly! How can any President simply cancel leases that were legally issued?
