The president continued his full court press to get more shots in arms just a short time ago. Yes, cases are going to go up before they come back down. It s the pandemic of the unvaccinated. I know i ve said that constantly, and others have as well. The pandemic of the unvaccinated. It s needless taking a needless toll on our country.

prices, high consumer spending and markets fighting off fears of the omicron variant. those are all positive signs pointing to a strong economy, wages, also expected to increase for employees next year. the white house working to temper expectations ahead of this report. janet yellen reportedly urging lawmakers not to be spooked by new inflation numbers as they continue to consider the price tag of president biden s social spending bill. what does all this really mean? let s bring in christine romans. when it comes to higher prices, look, we can all attest to that. we have seen it in different areas. what does this report tell us? these are the numbers that really quantify the gut punch for american consumers. that gut punch that feels like it really peaked in november. 6.8% is a big number. back to the 80s when stevie wonder and ebony and ivory was at the top of the charts, we were wearing clogs. this is not something we have seen in modern times, numbers like this. you l
