‘Center Store’ Inflation, China Hacks Us Again, Chicago’s Recipe for Disaster

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg as they detail why many people are getting more stressed about prices for essential items even though the overall inflation numbers are cooling. They highlight a piece from National Review's Noah Rothman explaining how "center store" inflation is still a big problem. They also wince at the news China successfully hacked the Commerce Department, including the emails of Sec. Gina Raimondo, and also parts of the State Department. Finally, they groan as Chicago's new far-left mayor wants to address crime by killing a gang database because of "racial disparities" and choosing to prioritize the infusion of social workers over actually enforcing laws.
