The Consumer Price Index or CPI which is a fake inflation number that does not include food and energy is now at over 8 percent.
BREAKING: CPI increased 8.3% in April from a year ago, more than the 8.1% estimate and near the highest level in more than 40 years. https://t.co/EUS6A3bGSN pic.twitter.com/yaOeh4HAzH

The usual suspects are blaming Vladimir Putin, but in reality this problem was caused by unlimited money printing, the virus hoax lockdowns and all sorts of other insane policies implemented by the United States government. Tucker Carlson rightly pointed out some of this on one of his recent shows.
Putin did not cause inflation. The U.S. government did. We printed a lot of money very quickly, and devalued our currency.https://t.co/QeWbYDmZFl pic.twitter.com/Xkd9Nn1HKZ

The real inflation rate right now is conservatively at around 20 percent, but it is probably much higher than that. We see it everywhere. As one example, just look at the price of food. Seems like there’s price increases every week or every couple of weeks.
This is literally the worst inflation of all-time. Definitely worse than the 1970s. It’s not even close. The people saying that it is the worst in 40 years are lying because they calculated inflation differently back then. So comparing the current CPI number to the CPI number from 40 years ago is like comparing apples with oranges. They changed the way they calculated this number to deliberately hide how the currency was being devalued.
