The executives over at CNN must be desperate to revive the network’s abysmal ratings after it’s been proven that pro-Biden propaganda no longer resonates with television audiences.
Or is this public self-flagellation of Biden officials just part of a whole new propaganda push?
Either way, there’s been a recent phenomenon of Biden cabinet officials appearing on the Fake News network to discuss their failures regarding inflation. CNN is roasting everyone involved, calling out key members of the administration on their incorrect predictions as Americans struggle under Bidenflation.
Biden’s Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo was the latest to get raked through the coals.
On Sunday, CNN darling Jake Tapper grilled Sec. Raimondo on the administration’s slow response and wildly inaccurate predictions about skyrocketing inflation levels.
Her appearance comes after Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen appeared on the network to admit she was “wrong” about “transitory” inflation — a talking point Democrats used to justify trillions in federal spending.
“As recently as six months ago, you were calling inflation a ‘short-term problem,’ not a long-term problem,” Tapper said. “So, you got it wrong too.”
Raimondo’s response was typical, placing the entirety of the blame for Bidenflation on Putin’s military invasion of Ukraine, a move “no one could have predicted,” according to the Commerce Secretary.

Tapper proceeded to hit Sec. Raimondo with some facts, which caused her to become visibly rattled.
He referenced a prediction from economist Larry Summer who began issuing grave warnings about the results of Biden’s immense inflationary spending habits.
“And Biden administration officials said that Larry Summers was wrong. And it turned out Larry Summers was right.”

Let’s face it: Raimondo (and the entirety of Biden’s team) is way over their heads on this inflation problem. It’s evident every time one of them appears on television. The dear-in-headlights look, the canned answers, and prepared talking points — it’s all one big joke to these people, who don’t really mind suffocating the American public with inflation as long as it means the economy is being transformed to resemble globalist Europe.
Tapper proceeded to ask Sec. Raimondo about the nationwide baby formula shortage happening under Biden’s watch.
The CNN host asked about discrepancies in Biden’s story claiming he only learned about the issue in April. Meanwhile, the Abbott baby formula facility was experiencing grave quality problems in 2021, and executives began warning the administration shortly after that.
“I’m not involved in the administration’s response here, I should say,” she said. “But I think they’re doing a very good job,” Raimondo said.
CNN'S JAKE TAPPER: "When did you first learn of this [baby formula shortage]?"
SEC. RAIMONDO: "Uh, I first learned about it, you know, a couple of months ago…"
TAPPER: "So April?"
RAIMONDO: "Uh, yes, probably April. I'm not involved in the administration's response here…" pic.twitter.com/XVPcQQh9La

Raimondo did not address a single concern raised during the interview.
