Wow.
U.S. economy appeared ready to surge, but Russia’s invasion of Ukraine could send shockwaves https://t.co/e5Zxjh2x6I

From WaPo:
A few weeks ago, the coronavirus’s fading omicron variant, falling gas prices, and a newly buoyant stock market set the table for what many felt could be a surging U.S. economy in 2022.
But those rosy scenarios are suddenly in doubt, as rampant geopolitical uncertainty has helped drive up energy prices and send global markets on a roller-coaster ride. These changes could give many consumers and businesses pause and put more pressure on Washington leaders to respond, even though it is unclear how exactly they will intervene.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Things were AOK until Putin decided to invade Ukraine.
Don’t believe you’re lying eyes.
Holy crap.
Totally! Believe us!

Outright gaslighting from the Washington Post here, claiming gas prices were falling prior to Ukraine.
Gas prices increasing for 8 straight weeks, now avg $3.62/gallon according to @EIAgov. Gas at $2.46 when Biden took office, hit $3.50 in Nov. before any Russian troop movements https://t.co/mDvO0mkgv2 pic.twitter.com/w4D0olprZZ
