You know it’s bad when the liberal darlings at CNN begin attacking Joe Biden’s cabinet officials!
Inflation has caused Americans to panic across the political spectrum and the ultra-liberal “news” networks can no longer ignore growing concerns.
On two separate occasions, CNN pundits have raked Biden’s officials through the coals as Americans grapple with financial insecurity stemming from the cognitively deficient president’s fiscal policies.
However, one must ask themselves why these Biden officials are willing to be subjected to scrutiny on national television? Have they been ordered to take the fall for Joe? Or is this merely a new era in the overlying propagandistic efforts of the Democrat Party?
Either way, CNN is roasting everyone they believe is involved in the Bidenflation scandal.
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.
While it is quite refreshing to witness Biden’s officials scrambling to explain their wrongdoing as it pertains to inflation, we remain incredulous.
There is a zero percent chance that CNN is holding Biden’s feet to the fire out of journalistic integrity. Something else is at play here — but only time will tell.
