It’s good and reassuring that the Fed’s inflation containment is showing signs of working, but it won’t work if you back off of it at the first sign of success. — PolitiTweet.org

Since I was having fun with dumbass rightists this morning who don’t know how to read a CPI report, I should say that I don’t think one largely energy-driven month of good inflation news should change the Fed’s approach — I’d do another big .75 hike and keep on keeping on. — PolitiTweet.org

“How Republicans plan to reduce inflation” could be a good segment for Fox News if they ever decide to pivot off the anti-FBI messaging. https://t.co/I973esyu0M — PolitiTweet.org

@Itsjoeco What kind of spending reductions do you have in mind? — PolitiTweet.org

@ModeledBehavior @DouthatNYT As a citizen and especially as a journalist who seeks to inform other citizens, I would sincerely like to know how Republicans plan to influence public policy if they win in November — it seems at least as important as the widely covered issue of their plans for Hunter Biden. — PolitiTweet.org

@bksnav @DouthatNYT So is the plan to do anti-checks and confiscate $2,000 from each household? — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

I think that’s broadly correct but I also expect that if I wrote “Republicans’ plan to reduce inflation is to raise taxes on the poor and cut benefits for the middle class” that they’d insist I’m wrong, so I find it a bit confusing. — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

I take @DouthatNYT’s point that it’s normal for the out-party to be a little fuzzy. But Republicans say inflation is the biggest problem in the country so I assume they have some ideas to reduce it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t think banning abortion and cutting the FBI budget are going to move the needle very much. — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

You’d think they’d write a bill that’s like the “America First Actual Inflation Reduction Plan,” put it through Penn-Wharton or some other credible model, show it’s more effective than Biden’s plan, and run on a compelling vision for America. — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

What are Republicans’ main ideas about how to reduce inflation? — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

They’ll do anything in pursuit of impunity not just for Trump personally but for a whole class of shady rich guys — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a great point, they scream and incite and then when it happens they whine. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been quite a week for defending tax cheats and slandering federal law enforcement officers, hope everyone is proud of themselves. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe Biden’s new IRS gestapo will deter people from publicly stating their intention to break tax laws. — PolitiTweet.org
