The White House is expending a tremendous amount of communication effort over the past 48 hours trying to convince the American public that the economy is good, and we are not in a recession.
Yesterday it was Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. Today National Economic Council Chairman Brian Deese, White House Economist Jared Bernstein and even Joe Biden himself, all declaring that despite the economic contraction you may feel, see and even quantify, we are not in a recession. WATCH:
.
The action of the recession deniers reminds me of the famous Ralph Waldo Emmerson quote:
“The louder he spoke of his honor, the faster we counted our spoons.”

The Recession Deniers

Bet they change…..
the definition of inflation.
Why not, they changed the definition of a woman and pretty much everything else.
Like they changed the definition of a vaccine?
I think they changed vaccine and herd immunity 27 times.
both with the labor disputes and strikes on the West Coast along with Mayor Pete’s “highly” effective supply chain enhancement, imports for last quarter will be reflected as down meaning those negatives to the GDP will not be adjusted keeping it JUUUUUST above 0
Yep
I believe Yellen is already on that.
Or they’ll keep the definition of inflation the same–but change the definition of 20% to 10%.
In fact, they already have.
And with Brandon’s blessing-a recession it is then. Book it 100%.
I bet if someone conducted man on the street interview of large swathes of Americans, asking for the textbook technical definition of “recession”, most (if not all) of those interviewed would be unable to define it.
I am not a betting person. But on this? I’d be willing to place one and would probably clean up.
The second the government announces their manipulated figure, I’m going straight to Shadowstats.
Two quarters of negative GDP is by the TRUE DEFINITION, A RECESSION!
…….but, but, but……. if it is “only transitory” to a new and better world where there is a unicorn in every kitchen and rainbows fill the sky………
The numbers will be manipulated to show that there is no recession.
yup. i questioned it when they started the “redefinition” thing.
But if they sent this clown out to say it today, then they already have enough sandbags to fake the funk for another quarter. or at least until some revised number in late September on a Friday night as some other catastrophe is dropping.
You nailed it.
Just like the 2020 election numbers were manipulated to show Xiden won 80 million votes.
They know we are in a recession. They know we know we are in a recession. They know we know they know we are in a recession. Which is why they will tell us Thursday that “We are not in a recession, technically.”
Here is the part I don’t get;
If things are economically so bad how does this occur????
Working Class Hero Bruce Springsteen Under Fire for $4,300 Ticket Prices
https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2022/07/25/nolte-working-class-hero-bruce-springsteen-under-fire-for-4300-ticket-prices/
Can anyone opine on how this can be true? How can this be the market-based price for a ticket to see the working class hero? Can there be that many people with that kind of spare cash??
It’s good to be the King
Plenty of cash floating around in the upper ether of ruling society
Let them eat cricket cake …
Ticketmaster is trying demand based pricing for a concert next year. As the time gets closer, the price will change. It may be like the airlines where everyone pays a different price. This is not a new thing. It is what Stubhub does in the resale market.
Springsteen is a one-man cluster. Has been since he kissed Barky’s ring. Sort of a male Baba Streisand, both in terms of obsolescence and irrelevancy. His audience is blue collar folks like John Kerry. His CDs make great skeet, BTW.
Thanks for the idea. I’ve been thinking of using some old CDs to hang under one of my house windows to scare away a relentless woodpecker.
I can use some of Springsteen Peckerhead’s CDs for this purpose – it will be so fitting…
Biden has credibility?
They’ve probably already rigged the data so they can with say they were right, OR, they can say they were right.
Only one comment:
“Who ya gonna believe? Me or your own eyes?”
Except…when you have 0% credibility, why not put it on the line?
When you’re going down in flames you might as well aim for the biggest building.
Especially logical, for these sociopaths…
Biden is sure it won’t be a recession because the definition of recession will be changed by democrats in the same way the definition of vaccine was changed by democrats.
In other words, democrats in power will rig whatever they have to rig to make it sound like it’s not a recession.
In short, democrats will *LIE*!
…….and their fellow democrats will support and defend it along with the media.
I am not wrong.
FJB opens his mouth, he lies.
Hmmmm…. pretty sure FJB does not know if is mouth is open let alone if anything is coming out.
Likely the same for the other end too!
What difference does it make if they say it is or isn’t?
Everyone has to live whatever it is. Saying it doesn’t make it what it is. If that was the case everyone would be multi-millionaires.
And don’t forget the lying Kenyan’s fake stat of “jobs saved and created”. Lol
That was one of the halfrican Barry elBuraq alHussein alMullato’bama Soetero Frank Marshall Davis, Jr’s biggest shovel-ready BS jobs, almost as good as his husband, that big, ugly transvestite man “First Lady” Michael “Michelle” Big Mike La Vaughn Robinson’s.
Barry’s husband Big Mike registered to vote, as a male, for 14 years until Barry ran for Senate. But of course, that was a clerical error, see:

Technically a depression is not a recession. Then there is the question of who is meant by the “we” who are not in a recession. It’s hard to think like a liar.
A recession is, famously, quoted as when your neighbor loses their job.
A depression is, in the same quote, defined as when you lose your job.
“A recovery… is when Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and Nancy Pelosi lose their jobs.”
Lying is the norm, the state media leads the cheers. Fake news is the enemy of the people.
Perhaps there is an intellectual, a historian out there who can explain where humans got their information on economics for most of human history?
For a glorious while, we had the ostensible truth as supplied by objective sources in the ephemeral capitalist world.
That Overton window has closed, and it is not clear whether the capitalist world will survive without any objective source of truth. You will invest $millions without any information? Yeah, no..
We never got truth; we just did not know it was not the truth. Trump and Sundance opened our eyes. As Sundance always said, “Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.” Democrats do not understand economics as a general rule. Those few that do pretend not to know things. Taxes are Investment. Modern Monetary Theory is a sound monetary theory. We don’t know when conception occurs. CO2 which is what plants breathe is bad. They cannot explain what a woman is. That raging fire is a peaceful protest. I thought the old elites were nuts to buy into eugenics. Our elites are 1000 times worse. Its way past nuts; we are dealing with evil.
My Gas and food bill disagree
and utility bills
I just got back from buying a bag of dog food kibbles and 2 cans of wet food. $56.92 for a 13 lb bag of Acana kibbles plus the 2 cans. OMG!
My issue with the headline: biden and credibility do not belong in the same sentence. Requires creative reconstruction.
Requires a negation somewhere in the sentence, maybe.
The White House imbecile and his illegitimate administration can define a recession, however they want in their fantasy. Reality however, continues to prove their lies (pretending) or incompetence.
The safest election in history. All the other lies are just more insanity.
“economic credibility”? OMG
I would settle for just some plain ol’ regular “credibility”..
There is plenty of baby formula, the shelves are not bare, your stomach is not grumbling ….. and CLEARLY , you are Not Hungry !
They’re just buying time. Filling their bunkers.
Can we PLEASE punish them, severely, if they turn out to be WRONG??
The BEA will say that the GDP is +0.000000000000000000000000000000001 !!!
How long are they going to ride this ship straight to the bottom which in their minds it is the top the media is going to burn itself to the ground proving the sky is technically not blue, like a recession it is technically not a recession. i feel much better now
“Credibility”. Hahaha. Good one.
The most important thing to take away from all of this is how really nobody believes a word these people say. The most cynical interpretation is the safest bet. Either they are trying to get everyone to pay attention to the report on Thursday – because they’ve rigged it to show that there isn’t a recession – or, they changed the accepted definition of recession in order to avoid reality – or, they know bad news is coming on Thursday and they’re hoping people remember the press statements because they know the media won’t actually report what is going on.
In any case, they’re liars so really the only game in town right now is which flavor of lie we’re going to be told we are required to believe…
…no sane person believes anything that comes out of the Federal Government anymore…
Biden can say whatever Cabal Biden tells him, but it doesn’t matter to him. His cognitive ability, never his strong suit is gone. His health is gone. His office will soon be gone. He either goes out by the 25th, or has an “unexpected” peaceful passing in his sleep. I expect the latter. Cabal will have their patsy, who never talks, and no policy will be walked back. President Kamala on deck, veep Gavin in the hole.
They will do as much damage as possible with him at the helm, then blame him after he passes. They need, need to keep him in office.
Or an assassination by the IC because then you can take further advantage of the fake crisis of domestic terrorists/insurrectionists and gain sympathy for the D replacement.
Ah, I have been raised. The mileage they get from that false flag would be immense. They might even make a biden monument near the Washington obelisk to spite us, as he is truly a hero to the left for all the “progress” he has made
They’ll put him on Mount Rushmore.
And if that happens a thousand FJBs will be spray painted in no time afterwards…
An Erwin Rommel funeral.
I think people are starting to focus less on Biden and focusing more on what is behind Biden. It is what is behind Biden where the dangers are propagated.
Thank you, Sundance – a voice of sanity which is so welcome and needed –
We live in a 100% fake country…..
Nope. We live in a real country run by a fake government.
This sounds like how they changed the definition of vaccine and vaccination.
Or not calling crimes crimes…
No recession here folks!
A lovely Hollywood set they created for FJB.
Well, Obama and Co has the Oval office booked solid, so they had to build FJB a fake White House to go with his fake election and fake presidency.
They are using words to try and deny your own physical reality is false! Selling BS! Vote this Obama Cult OUT!
They’re right, this is not a recession. It is a depression.
Total clarification, I am not an economist, just an average consumer who can’t consume any more to the levels on consumption I once enjoyed.
Is this the same Biden who claimed that if you get the Covid vaccine, you cannot get Covid?
Don’t forget FJB Christmas wishes that included a winter of death for the unjabbed.
Hmmm, unvaxxed, still alive and quite healthy.
Another batch of malarkey from “no Malarkey Joe” – but you knew it would be, after all.
I doubt Slo Joe was double vaxxed and double boosted. If he was, he’d be dead from blood clots by now.
“credibility”
BAHAHAAAAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!!
that’s a good one….
Most profound thanks to Sundance, for emphasizing the distinction between Wall Street and Main Street.
The Wall Street crowd are the corporatist crowd, who now drive our world.
The Main Street crowd are the enemies of the corporatists, because, they vote Republican, because they oppose the globalist policies of the New World Order, the Great Reset etc.
So, bizarrely, the voters who support small business are the enemies of the capitalist big-business interests.
Clear? Yeah, not to anyone.
Neo-feudalism is the true end-g0al. So, the investor who owns 100 McDonald’s or 100 Subway franchises has no place in this world.
Surely, a new political party could be formed from these frustrated entrepreneurs?
Having no food to sell is surely an existential threat?
Spot on. The people who think communists are in charge are mistaken, which is frustrating. At least communism has an ostensible ethos of sharing, but neofeudalism is the goal. Their greed knows no bounds. Can’t have the pesky educated and smart middle class raising expectations for the lower class. Have to crush everyone except the top.
The idiots supporting this think they will come out on top. And if they do, they will still be no better off than upper middle class today, but surrounded by misery. These are cold heartless idiots.
No credibility on the line. The fix is in. We went through this with Obama. The bureaucracy covers for fellow travelers.
Why do they even care what it’s called? Most of us don’t know the technical definition of a recession anyway, and we don’t need the White House to agree, to know that we are definitely in bad-looking times. Why do they think we even care what they call it?
BLM and ANTIFA rioting and looting – “these are mostly peaceful protests”.
Antifa is just an idea.
Sure, sure, because the old fool is so believable…..FJB ” You will not get Covid if you are Vaxxed and boosted”
I wonder if this group of back stabbers are going to back Biden on his new definition of “Recession”?
https://amgreatness.com/2022/07/25/trumps-think-tank-prepares-to-betray-him/
The more time passes, the more I believe the only person Trump had in his corner was Navarro, and possibly Ross, Mnuchin, plus Lighthizer.
I am disappointed in Kudlow.
There is no sign of recession for those who are in the business of transporting illegals from our borders to other locales within the United States, along with those organizations that place these illegals in homes, jobs, etc.
They are making a killing! All thanks to our taxes and of course adding to our national debt…they love America and it is time for them to feast and feast they are…big time!
I expect Hunter figured out how to get a kickback from the Cartels for their $400m in human trafficking profits.
New definition for “well-being:” synching your outlook daily to the day’s politically correct one.
Remember Romney calling out Obama during a debate and saying, “just because you say it (many times) doesn’t make it true.”
And how gullible Obama WH found reporters?
Biden is just doing the same.
This should end his cabal
Ready and manure cannons
Biden memes drop in real time …….
@johnhackerla
@QueenofBaconz
I’ll simplify it for everyone….
A recession is when your neighbor loses his job.
A depression is when YOU lose your job.
let me know how it goes…..
Joe Biden and his legendary economics acumen and credibility ha ha ha 🤣🤣🤣
Joe Biden does not know or has never done anything of substance. Similar to Obama.
He is an empty suit who has done nothing but rip off taxpayers for decades.
Zero accomplishments. Syracuse law near the bottom. Did he ever even practice and write up a contact for the local lawn care store?
Economic Credibility?
He has no credibility whatsoever…everything out of his mouth has been proven to be a lie.
If you can fudge votes fudging GDP numbers is childs play
“I do not think we will see a recession” … technically Brandon is correct. We are ALREADY IN a recession, so the future tense is irrelevant. And the main reason we are in a recession is the overheated printing press at Yellen’s Fed. Even AOC can understand this.
I doubt AOC understands a thermos bottle. “It keeps cold things cold in summer and keeps hot things hot in winter! How does it know?”
“What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.” Emerson
Love that for the simplicity. The challenge progressives have is their words and actions are NEVER in alignment. Even this one said she did it for her “love of country”. She, like all leftist/progressive/communist are diametrically opposed in their behaviors vs attitudes. The root of their problem…?…no value system.
It will not be like a recession recession. HT Whoopi.
