The national average price of a gallon of gas really did dip to $1.77 in April of 2020.

Adjusted for COVID, the net job-gain from Bidens first day until February 2024 was 5.5 million jobs.

By his 30th month in office, the number of nonfarm jobs had risen to 156.2 million.

They’re a straight-shooter!”
the wool has been pulled over your eyes.
