Cmon I know you all have bought groceries in the past year. Prices are not, 'way, way down'. That is a falsehood. Admit it, food is not cheaper, supplies are not cheaper. #Tariffs have increased costs, a foreign shipper doesn't pay them. You were had, he lied. #TrumpLies

Hmmm, isn't this more or less what Allen Weisselberg went to prison for? I feel like the one making the accusation is normally the one who's guilty of the crime. Also, allegedly before she was at the Fed, has no standing imo.
