‘Please Go To The Grocery Store’: Swing-State Diner Patrons Rip Biden Admin For Sky-High Food Prices

Patrons at a diner in Columbus, Georgia, criticized the Biden administration over inflation during a Thursday segment on “Fox and Friends.”

Although the Consumer Price Index dropped to 3.3% year-over-year in May from a high of 9.1% in June 2022, prices have increased 20.1% since Biden took office in January 2021. Some of the diners called out Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen over the high prices when asked about a Monday interview Yellen did with Yahoo! Finance in which she said the prices didn’t surprise her.

“I don’t think Janet Yellen knows where a grocery store is,” one patron at Ruth Ann’s Restaurant in Columbus told “Fox and Friends” co-host Lawrence Jones.

“I can’t believe anybody can make those comments in today’s times,” another diner said.
