Hassett: Inflation is way down. I go to the grocery store every weekend and I just noticed the hamburger for by barbecue was down two dollars from a couple of weeks ago.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Hassett's anecdote of one hamburger price drop does not show inflation is way down. BLS data shows CPI up 3.4% year-over-year through August 2026 while ground beef averaged a record $6.92/lb, up 9.6% from a year earlier.

What a nightmare. By implementing the tariffs illegally, and now having to unwind them, the Trump administration created over $100 billion of profit for corporations selling foreign products, at the expense of American consumers.
Your refund: $0.00
Apple’s profit: $2.2 billion

Every NFL aggregator / news account is bought out by kalshi / polymarket and does garbage like this to incentivize clicks. Please follow actual journalism, it is out there and it is actually worth your time. Not designed to get people to waste their money on “prediction markets”

Every account hyping up AI is either:
- an investor poised to make a profit if it catches on
or
- a talentless hack that finally feels it has creativity within reach that was held by “elites” (people that could actually do the job without typing something into a prompt).

It seems like we’re living through a uniquely dystopic moment where all that once was good is being uprooted and destroyed for no good reason beyond a tiny tiny minority expanding their wealth.

In February 2026, Paramount offered a higher sum of money than Netflix offered to acquire Warner Bros, but Netflix refused to increase its offer.
Because of this, Netflix will not acquire Warner Bros.

You know what. Fuck AI.
It is GREATLY raising your cost of electricity, it is tripling RAM prices which will now only go higher, it is blowing through fresh water supply for cooling. The "temporary" power plants some of these data centers have built create insane amounts of pollution and destroy the local air quality.
It is being forced into everywhere costing people jobs even when it doesn't work, is straight up trash, or makes any sense.
We the people always getting fucked just so the rich can get richer.
