Brit Hume exposes Biden admin for being ‘perfectly prepared’ to let consumers suffer inflation

Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume weighs in on the consequences of the administration's legacy of inflation on 'Special Report'

Inflation is really a dangerous thing because whatever other gains are made in wages and so forth are wiped out by inflation and it damages your savings. As long as the Fed, if interest rates are low, it's going to be hard for people who have savings to make the kind of gains that they want and need. It is about as corrosive a factor in American life as one can imagine, and it has remained at bay for many years now. And here it's back. And the Fed keeps telling us, no, this is transitory, and maybe it is. But if this administration is going to have an anti-fossil fuels policy that continues to drive energy prices ever higher, they're not going to be to convince people that inflation is under control…

This is kind of politically insane to let this go on. And to shut down pipelines and not approve pipelines and end up begging Saudi Arabia to increase its production to offset the loss of energy here at home, I think is not going to sit well with the public. No question about it.
