How in the world does this woman have this job?
Bilbo Baggins of the lollipop guild. Yeah it makes no sense how that gremlin is head of our economy.
WOKE DEI hire
I believe you could as that same question of every department in this unbelievable inept administration
She is a World Economic Forum member and puppet.
The same way Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas still has a job; they are 'protected' by the Democrats.
This woman cannot stop lying.
That's how she got the job! Everyone in Brandon's administration is a blatant liar!
It’s part of the job, deflect and lie for Brandon
Bureaucrats can only see inside their own prism. She believes her untruths.
We all live in a Yellen submarine
Democrat it's a trademark.
We are drowning in incompetence in our government
Don't mistake it for incompetence. It is anything but. Their hands are tied. They sold us out nearly 20 years ago, if not longer. There is almost nothing to be done, all they can do is damage control until the entire house of cards collapses and they flee to their private islands.
100%
Incompetence or intent?
@@abnocoall intentionally done. Like the border
💯 % INTENTIONAL
She still says inflation is coming down....she believes we are stupid....sadly...voters are
"record number"
We gotta communicate as a nation
Economic collapse countdown.
Well it’s like saying “I’m accelerating from 0-100 in 10 seconds and then when I get to 100 mph I won’t DECELERATE but I will LESSEN THE ACCELERATION to go from 100mph-150mph in the following 10 seconds, like… prices on basic necessities rarely if ever comes back down, and she’s not even saying that the prices will go down, she’s saying the rate of increase in prices will decline, like whattt?! Why is paying more for less good for anything?! Especially when current income for most people doesn’t keep up!
Oh wait? It is good for one thing… asset prices
Yellen should spend a “transitory” time in prison, say the next twenty years.
I agree good sir.
A year for every percentage of inflation seems fair.
Not long enough
What’s he fighting for?
For Trump to get back in and borrow more money than ever, just like what happened before.
Both parties need to be voted out.
What crime has she committed? This is just like the blues putting orange Julius in jail.
This woman is clueless
She's not clueless. She knows exactly what she's doing
@@nachc6459sadly agree this is all planned. Just like the new voters screaming across our border. All planned
You tube deleting all my comments.. Must not be free speech.
She knows exactly what she’s doing
Not clueless this administration knows exactly what it is doing. Open borders for new voters prosecute competition. All planned
The way Yellen talks with her very choppy sentencing and of course her total LACK of accountability is beyond frustrating!
She’s having trouble with the script she had to memorize. Like she’s reading a teleprompter that’s not rolling quick enough.
Her cadence makes my brain waves go into some kind of seizure
She’s a really old female version of Mayorkis
FJB and FU for voting Democrat... They did this in purpose
She needs to retire, she is out of her mind.
Not just her the whole administration
It’s not an accident.
That thing never had a mind to begin with.
She needs to be thrown in prison for undermining our economy and being a traitor
She's a politician now- logic, reason and facts are secondary to party loyalty.
If you allow tax reductions to expire, that is an INCREASE IN TAXES.
Not in her feeble mind...
This Woman should be Locked up and held on trial for what she mismanaged and lied and attempted to cover up
She made certain the Chinese were paid when the banks collapsed.
On Bidenomics And Inflation Rates 76 percent of America thinks the country is headed in the wrong direction. Socialism, Communism is never the right direction.
And 54% of the people will still vote for Biden again.
Democrat financials will run well until they run out of others peoples money, also called socialist system.
His supporters are blind 😵💫
Well, socialism and communism requires printing lots of valueless money, and using force to stop people from choosing where to spend their money and what on, where to invest, and where to work.
Also, literally stopping people from growing too much food on their farms, because that might actually make a profit and reduce costs, whilst increasing demands, which would be a disaster for other farms still complying with the centrally set production rates being unable to supply the new demand or compete with the lower costs elsewhere.
True socialism and communism is really vomit inducing, and requires massive use of threats of force and force itself. It's the symptom of an indulgent society that has teachers who have never had a real job in their lives, preaching whatever BS is popular in academic circles to vulnerable and impressionable youngsters.
Well, it happened under the democracy, no?
FJB and his team.
This woman is completely out of her mind .. she has NO idea!
More than you think, actually. And i'm not supporting her. The truth is far more scary. That they cannot stop what is coming, but they cannot admit to it either or there would be mass panic.
10 years of inflation in 3 years FJB
janet yellen doesnt even look like she can balance a check book. Comepletly out of touch with whats going on in the real world.
I don't know what else you'd expect from a talking squash.
She is the worst liar!!
actually.... she's the BEST liar.... able to lie right in your face without flinching
Nope Trump is better by far.
She destroyed the economy while his secretary of health murdered the elderly. Those are some pretty bad liars.
@@vmax4575 clearly you live under a rock
@@dakota.logantx30 Yes a very large TDS rock and a brain to match
Nothing will be done, and nothing will EVER change. This is all for show.
Tax, borrow, spend, print more money as needed. Everything is fine. Don't believe your own experience, take our word for it.
Don’t look up….
It’s so frustrating. No accountability from a corrupt govt. fed govt has no business looking over the shoulders of the private sector or Americans at all. They are so inefficient and ineffective.
@@teg5135in my high school text book there was a picture of kids stacking bricks of money in Russia like building blocks following the collapse of the soviet union. Worthless paper
Yellen is a Liar and won't ever admit the truth 🤨💯
Reported
@@4rmDEC2FRE 🤣😂🤣😂
Like most of the Biden administration, they don't deserve to be there.
She can't admit the truth. If she did there would be mass panic. They'll keep obfuscating the truth and lying about the reality of the situation until it all comes crashing down. This is how it always works.
@@4rmDEC2FRE 🤡
She was in China twice within the past few months. Why?
To keep them buying our debt, of course.
Picking up a paycheck and giving 10% to the big guy 😂🤣
Beg China for another $ trillion to borrow.
Probably threatened them if they keep bidding gold up then the US would cripple their economy.
Her favorite Chinese restaurant won’t deliver to the US. She takes Airforce 1 to pick it up herself (and Joe’s 10%).
Hiring this lady as Treasurer wasn’t an accident.
No more elderly in office
My thoughts exact. Nobody over 65 should be allowed to run any political position. Once you hit 65 finish up the remainder of your term and after that vote someone younger in to take over.
The Republicans told her this was going to happen but she kept say it was transitory.
and she is correct the money is transitory from you pocket to Biden's pocket.
Transitory 4 more years so get over it.
@@yepyep340 so she lied… got it.
@@ericshellhamer9847 Tran sit tory. It means. Just sit back and enjoy it. BIDEN 4 MORE YEARS. Thank maga for Dobbs
You will get 4 more years. "So just lie back and enjoy it."😘
This lady is clueless 😂
She is as cunning as a wolfe.
She is doing all this administration desires...and getting by with it.
Intentionally clueless
Remember "you will own nothing and be happy"
Please explain to me HOW a CEO can be removed for being inept, and yet we can’t remove a nominated political office propagandist, for being inept?
Make it make sense! I’d be FIRED! ANYONE else would be FIRED!
Here we are being forced, to suffer her! What a joke!
I can't believe this woman used to run the Fed.
Woman? You mean talking white squash?
@@TheeGlocktopus Yes, that is more apropos. Thank you.
She’s exactly the type of person who always chairs the fed. The fed is a corrupt cartel.
I can definitely believe it. Do you see what happens in our country?
"supply shocks", totally not printing 10 trillion dollars out of thin air.
You get what you vote for
It is not supply shots, quit blaming COVID. Here is a simple example; a box of pasta 3 years ago was $1.00, today the same box of pasta is $1.67. Over all grocery prices have increased at the same rate. My wages have not increased at the same rate.
Look how much fiat was printed during covid then handed out to the masses. Around the world govts used the excuse of covid to issue mass amounts of debt. It's a debt based system. Debt is the oil now, when it slows down and debt gets smaller the entire fiat system dies. They will and have to hyper inflate the dent away,
There is no single reason why inflation is higher but shutting down construction on the keystone pipeline, stopping oil drilling on federal land, sending stimulus checks to everyone, and shipping billions of dollars to aid foreign wars all made it considerably worse.
Yellen should not even be in charge of the janitorial services of the white house
How can she keep saying inflation has gone down? NOTHING is dropping in price. EVERYTHING is getting MORE expensive...
That’s not how it works. Inflation going down is just saying things increasing at a slower rate. A 2% inflation rate means things go up by 2%. You talking about deflation, when prices go down.
it is a play on words.... to make people think things are all roses. The RATE of inflation may have gone down, but overall, prices are still going up
Like Biden she lies....quite a bit.
Yes that is correct. But to say that the inflation was transitory due to supply shocks, was to imply that when supply chain issues were fixed, the prices would return. That has not happened, because the inflation was indeed not transitory.
@@aaronvoss38 Again, that’s not inflation you’re describing, that’s deflation. By saying inflation is transitory, it just means that we wouldn’t have the roller coaster of inflation (cycle). So once the supply chain was fixed, inflation should drop back down to the 2% fed’s goal. Prices would still be at the elevated, because they didn’t deflate.
Delusional if she thinks it’s down!
Technically it's half of what it was at the peak, but it's still terrible.
@@jamesdagmond Down is a decrease in the inflation, not a slower rate of increase.
She looks like she shouldn't be doing anything more complicated than bake cookies. Yet these gentlemen are asking her serious questions like they don't see that.
Janet Yellen is Mrs. Magoo
😂 I love this
The government has a spending problem and Ms. Yellen has not been an effective advisor to her boss.
How much does she make annually?
She can afford the inflation. So she doesn't care. FJB
RFK 2024
Her Boss(es) are the problem. They got us into this mess and have culminated it over the last 50 years. Now they are trying to hide the gravity of the situation while they pull the chute and bail out with billions in U.S. taxpayer dollars. They set the fire, put gasoline on it, and are abandoning ship in the only life rafts available.
Amazing video, you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires.
I've been trying to trade but I keep making losses and it's frustrating
If you are using really a good broker or account manager is easier to earn from the market
Thanks to Andrea Sheryl Fox, she has always been there to guide me with detailed analysis and recommendations that I would not otherwise have access to.
Yeah!!!
I started t with Andrea Sheryl 2021 and now my life is good some thing to write home about!!!! I thank God the most He alone made it possible for the opportunity to come my way 🤲🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻
Same here, with my current crypto portfolio made from my investments with my personal financial advisor
For the average family of 4, groceries now cost $11,000 more than just 18 months ago.
Unfortunately your statement is factual. Jeesh
She still arguing supply and foreign inflation? Lol.
Same script 4 years later
They'll claim their policies just kicked in when Trump is back in office and prices drop
Can we do insider trading like you people do ?
IT HAS NOT COME DOWN EVERY WEEK WE PAY MORE! HELLO WE ARE LIVING IT
it is a play on words.... to make people think things are all roses. The RATE of inflation may have gone down (however small), but overall, prices are still going up
Gas is down every time when you raised it from the start.
@@dandyandy642yep gas is still up over 50% from 2020 in Florida. But it's not up 150% so we should be thankful 😂
@@Cornpop-N-DaBoyz Be thankful to the elites that they didn't alter the deal any further.
Ah yes, The Queen of Incompetence....
Don't care about the economy of other countries in which I don't live!
She's probably still smoking or eating them mushrooms, cause she has no idea how the middle class are suffering at the gas pump, food, and much more!!!!
They are all elites, non of them experience or care that people have to decide between mortgage/rent or food, or fuel
Yes she does. So does the entire administration, that’s what should scare the citizens of this country. People forget when they look at other countries to be the standard, that genocide is still common practice in this world and it can happen here. You know you’re in danger of that when your leaders don’t really care if you know they’re lying.
She doesn't understand that raising taxes on gas and companies making over 400,000 will cause those same companies to raise their damn prices. It's a tax on everyone!
I smoke and eat
Mushrooms. If politicians ate mushrooms they would be much better at their job.
@@jasonhutchins9239 unfortunately 😕 it's not helping her. She needs to retire like now.
That’s the great thing about being an unelected bureaucrat. Zero accountability.
This person should be in a Senior Center and NOT a Government office
She is a perfect comrade.
“Runaway” is the word I would use.
Yellen is living in the twilight zone certianly not in America.
Destroying America from the inside. Intentionally.
The day will come when these criminals will be treated as criminals.
Doubt it.
Hold these people accountable, or stop wasting our time and money.
Janet Yellen is Anthony Fauci in a wig and a dress.
Listen to Senator Rand Paul
The power of Socialism, Communism, never enough of anything, especially your money. They take all of your money then leave you with this.
The left and right will come together on this. Sadly the Chinese will run this country by then. When congress is doubtful of who is a man or woman, then I doubt they could agree on the laws of gravity.
This person couldn't add 2 + 2. wow! FJB and this administration.
Yo!! Single people are being taxed at around 20.5% of their income. In some states it is around 27% because of state income tax. Not to mention the state sales tax. JUST STOP TAXING THE PEOPLE! We are tired of NO REPRESENTATION IN GOVT.
MORE LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES FJB FYELLEN
When she says inflation has come down considerably she forgets to add that it's coming down from ridiculously astronomically high levels....... they leave that out on purpose.
Funny because it came down for a short time and is on its way back up. The govt manipulated every report they could and it still goes up.
Even if inflation is 0 it's still too damn high. That's the growth rate but not the overall cost which is 20% of the value of the dollar four years ago.
@@dandyandy642 No, we've always had inflation. Most of the time its under the GDP%. Under Biden its gone way above and remained above.
@@jefferydraper4019 Exactly. I don't think people care when wages are not growing with GDP and inflation.
Who cares about GDP... It's a fake metric, you can always claim you produce real output if you manipulate your price in the equation.. plus it's mostly consumption driven so who really cares if it's not really driving reinvestment
Registered demms should have to pay 18 percent more taxes than Republican cans,,its what they voted for so let them have it!!!
Never seen a blobfish out of the water.
Why even hold these hearings anymore? The admin does not care about being proven wrong. They will continue on doing whatever they want. We need action, not words.

I wouldn’t trust her to balance a simple, monthly checkbook. Nevermind, head the Treasury.
It's sad that yelled doesn't understand the meaning of inflation, a problem with Keynesians.
Inflation is nothing more than increasing the money supply. The more money printed or pushed into the economy, the more money is required to purchase goods and services.
OH she knows full well what she's doing. Don't mistake incompetence for corruption.
This is nothing but an exercise in the ability to tolerate a fool, her opinion has no value.
I just can't stand this old lady. It's as if she doesn't care how bad the economy gets.
She’s been lying and she’s smart enough to know it

What Yellen meant to say was that inflation was “transitioning” to another financial gender

This a wealth transfer from the lower and middle class to the rich.
She thinks we're stupid and don't know how inflation works.
If she told me I have 10 fingers, I’d still count them myself.
Saying "Inflation has come down" is an idiotic counter defense. Inflation is almost always permanent and lasting. Whether it "comes down from where it was" or not is almost always irrelevant. The damage is done and not undone when inflation comes down.
Exactly. These prices will never go back down to the pre-joe days.
Ex. Last month I gained 7 lbs of body fat. This month I only gained 5 lbs of body fat. Therefore my inflation went down by 2%.
Four more Years, pause, "Four more Years" "Four more Years"

Hair hatted hooligans.
Janet Yellen speaks like every word she breathes out is her last. 😰
Terrible. A lot of price gouging going on also by large enterprises who are posting record profits.
If the dollars are worth %20 less, they get %20 more of them for the same item. The "record profits" babbling would make sense only if their dollars still retained the value they originally had. All of the costs went up by the same amount. Whether the bakery gets one dollar or five dollars, the value is still just one loaf of bread. Those doing the baking, the ovens themselves, the electricity, and packaging or transport of the bread are all 5 times higher at the same time. The "profits" are higher numerically but still the same percentage.
@@mike-xn1qj How did all the costs go up by the same amount? This isn't 2021. There are only two groups that are doing better than ever in this economy, the already rich and large corporations.
@@ianmorrison5474 Inflation affected the costs of fuel, materials, energy...are you asserting that the "wealthy" get gas at the previous price? LOL
