Jeff Bezos of Amazon appeared to have had some revelations over the weekend.
He let loose on Joe Biden in a series of tweets, first pointing out how what Joe Biden said about taxing corporations to solve inflation was disinformation and “misdirection.”
This should be reviewed by Disinformation Board. Discussing raising corporation taxes is fine. It is important to talk about how you can control inflation. They should not be mixed together. https://t.co/ye4XiNNc2v

Bezos didn’t leave it there. He responded to a tweet criticizing Biden’s claim that he had lowered the deficit with his actions.
It is absurd. The deficit is decreasing because we’re not doing pandemic aid anymore, and federal receipts are up because of inflation. Congress, or the Biden administration, didn’t do anything to lower the deficit. https://t.co/kvlLPpsUO9

Bezos said this was more “misdirection” by Biden and the only thing that saved him from himself and having worse inflation was Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) stopping Biden from spending more.
In reality, they tried to add more stimulus to an already inflamed and inflationary economy. Manchin saved them. Inflation can be a destructive tax, which most affects those least wealthy. Misdirection doesn’t help the country. https://t.co/a8cygcunEG

That didn’t make the White House happy and they fired back at Bezos.
“It doesn’t require a huge leap to figure out why one of the wealthiest individuals on Earth opposes an economic agenda for the middle class that cuts some of the biggest costs families face, fights inflation for the long haul, and adds to the historic deficit reduction the President is achieving by asking the richest taxpayers and corporations to pay their fair share,” deputy White House press secretary Andrew Bates said in a statement.
“It’s also unsurprising that this tweet comes after the President met with labor organizers, including Amazon employees,” Bates added.
There is no way that the White House can refute Bezos’ points. Americans are well aware that Biden has only increased inflation and made it more difficult for middle-class people.
But Bezos put a finer point on it.
Their goal was to raise $3.5 TILLION for federal spending. But they were unsuccessful. If they had succeeded inflation would have been higher today than it is now. Today, however, is at an all-time high of 40 years.

“Look, a squirrel!” Bezos blasted back. “This is the White House’s statement about my recent tweets. It is understandable that they want to confuse the issue. They are well aware that inflation is a problem for the poorest. But unions aren’t causing inflation and neither are wealthy people. Keep in mind that the Administration tried to raise $3.5 Trillion to fund federal spending. They failed, but if they had succeeded, inflation would be even higher than it is today, and inflation today is at a 40 year high.”
So not only have the radical nature of the Democrats and their lies moved Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, and others who previously might have called themselves liberal, we now even have Jeff Bezos — someone who has been all-in on advancing the Democratic narrative — calling out Biden on his lies. It sounds like he’s not going to be coming out for Biden anytime soon. It’s like they’re all saying enough already of the narrative. That’s a threat to Joe Biden and the power of the Democrats. Bezos can clearly see how they respond to that. Bezos has a solid economic foundation. Biden, who doesn’t seem to know much or isn’t aware of the facts that higher government spending caused inflation, is simply trying to keep us spending into the abyss.
Milton Friedman is an economist who agrees to Bezos.

Bezos’s move to the left? He believes that the Republicans are going to bring changes. Whichever, he doesn’t seem afraid about throwing down with Biden and skewering him publicly. You could be in serious trouble if you lose Bezos.
