For weeks, #Trump has repeatedly boasted that his admin had managed to bring #EggPrices down. But new data on Thurs showed that egg #prices at the #grocery store continued to climb in March.Egg prices rose 5.9% over the month, acc/to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics [#BLS]. They climbed at a slower rate, though, after rising 10.4% in February & 15.2% in January.Compared with a year earlier, the price of #eggs is up 60.4%.#economy #inflation #recessionhttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/us/politics/egg-prices-march.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&sgrp=p&pvid=B3C690E8-3AB0-4536-A24F-54EEBC2B393A

@Nonilex Boy, Trump is taking a few trillion of market value off the stock market and eggs haven't gotten any cheaper. Good strategy this guy has.

@Nonilex We were fortunate to have eggs to give out at the food pantry this week. Folks were saying they were $10 a dozen at Target.

@Nonilex I wouldn't be surprised by a price spike for Easter. There usually seems to be a demand surge for Easter eggs, and with inflexible supply that could lead to a big jump in price.

@Nonilex With the FDA and etc being gutted, my suspicion is that they'll just stop requiring eggs to be safe.And then it would just be a matter of time until a mutation occurs that makes it more contagious and we'll be looking at another Trump COVID-19 handling situation. "It will go away. Like a miracle."

@Nonilex I’m shocked that some lying is coming out of Trump administration. SHOCKED!
