Remember back during the dark ages of the Biden administration when they laughably lied about lowering food prices for the Fourth of July?
Planning a cookout this year? Ketchup on the news. According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a 4th of July BBQ is down from last year. It’s a fact you must-hear(d). Hot dog, the Biden economic plan is working. And that’s something we can all relish. pic.twitter.com/7h9qLauIbC

LOL. We hope everyone invested their 16 cents wisely. (Except, as the Community Note on that post shows, even 16 cents of savings was a lie.)
Of course, Democrats never learn their lesson, so last night, Adam 'Shifty' Schiff decided that he would try the same trick for this year's Independence Day celebration, claiming that Trump's tariffs are causing prices of some favorite cookout items to skyrocket.
Going shopping for your 4th of July cookout today? Trump's tariffs are making it a lot more expensive.

From beer, to beef, to ice cream – prices are higher than ever.
The American people deserve better.
Notice how Schiff does not include any specifics about how MUCH those prices are rising?
Yeah, there's a reason for that.
We particularly like the specific food items that Schiff selected for his post, all of which are predominantly made in the USA, so they would not be impacted by tariffs in any case.
The US is IMPORTING beef, beer & ice cream??? https://t.co/l8d8jnhYn7

Hey Autopen Pardon,

Nice try in the tariffs. Here is where Americans get these items
92% of beef is raised in America
79% of beer is made in America
96% of ice cream is made in America
Now can you turn off your phone so we can enjoy our FREEDOM?
Thanks,
Americans
Oops.
In fairness, Schiff is a Democrat elitist, so, like Nancy Pelosi, everything in his $25,000 refrigerator probably IS imported.
But we agree that he should absolutely put down his phone and stop annoying us on our most American of holidays.

You must not go to grocery stores.
— Mom (@4xy2xx) July 4, 2025
Onions under a dollar a pound, eggs back in the 2.00-3.00 range. Spices are less expensive...
Most things are coming down.
We can virtually guarantee that Schiff has not been to a grocery store in at least a couple of decades.
Even if Trump's tariffs ARE impacting the prices of some items (and there's no evidence of this for food products), there's no question that the impact is far lower than the disaster Schiff and Joe Biden inflicted on Americans from 2021-2025.

Yeah, this wasn't going the way Schiff wanted it to, as the ratio continued to mount.

You lie. Nothing has went up and many things have came down in the 6 months of President Trump.

You suck at governing and you're really not a good liar either. https://t.co/r6rR6B2hPs
Is there anything that Schiff DOES do well?
Don't know where you shop at but where I shop prices are down. You lying dips*** monkey brane https://t.co/uqsA5ervab
— [email protected] (@electricken2002) July 4, 2025
LOL. Is a 'lying dips*** monkey brain' better or worse than a 'dog-faced pony soldier'?
I don’t drink, but everything I bought today was cheaper than last year.

Also—it’s called Independence Day. https://t.co/RW1DPfWUkt
And that's about the most polite response we could find.
Honestly.
Most were ... far harsher.

This is a blatant lie.
Every major economist agreed that the tariffs have had no input on daily consumption items.

This is true, but Schiff has never let the truth get in the way of his lies.
The crushing stench of defeat is coming through your post loud and clear.
— MAZE (@mazemoore) July 4, 2025
HA.
Perfection.
We could keep going on and on, Schiff's ratio was just that bad, but we think we will leave him to wallow in the putrid, crushing stench of his failure.
We've got burgers ready to go on the grill, and those smell far better.
Happy Independence Day to everyone except lying Adam Schiff.
