Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) sounded off on President Joe Biden\u2019s so-called Build Back Better agenda amid the growth in inflation.<\/p>\n<p>Van Drew described inflation as \u201cthe Biden tax.\u201d He argued it was \u201ca complete waste of money\u201d that was a result of \u201cterrible\u201d Biden policies.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThis is without question the Biden tax. It is just one more tax on everybody. It is because of the terrible way he has led this country in so many ways,\u201d Van Drew proclaimed. \u201cAnd Congressman Jordan is right. When you talk about that Build Back Better bill, which I call the big bad bill \u2014 I wish I could get a country-western singer to do a song about it \u2014 when you talk about that bill and what it is going to do, 2.5 million for tree equity is in it. Tell me what tree equity is. Do we have to have the same amount of trees, the same shape, the same size, the same number? I don\u2019t even understand half of what\u2019s in that bill. It is a complete waste of money, almost all of it, but that is the way Biden has run everything. The way he dealt with COVID was a way that caused shortages. It didn\u2019t work with small business people. That has created inflation.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>He continued, \u201c[T]here is going to be a day in the future for future politicians, when they really screw up, that it\u2019s going to be called, you know, \u2018doing a Biden\u2019 because really that\u2019s basically the worst administration and the worst majority in Congress that we have ever had in the history of this nation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Van Drew also hit those who blame \u201cgreedy corporations\u201d for inflation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s nonsense. It\u2019s stupid. We know the reasons,\u201d he declared. \u201cI go back to \u2026 this big bad bill or build back, whatever you want to call it, is a terrible bill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Trent Baker&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/MagnifiTrent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@MagnifiTrent<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday, Rep.
