The Fed’s Next Big Lie: Will They Blame Tariffs for Their Own Inflation Disaster?

The Fed’s Inflation Scam: How They Print Money and Blame Everyone Else

Price inflation isn’t some mysterious phenomenon. It’s not the result of foreign trade wars, corporate price gouging, or "unexpected economic shocks." It’s the direct result of one thing: the Federal Reserve pumping out more money than the economy can handle.

Let’s look at the numbers they don’t want you to see.

• The Core PCE Price Index—the Fed’s preferred inflation measure—is up 2.8% on an annualized basis.
• The headline PCE index just saw its biggest monthly jump in eight months.
• Government spending skyrocketed 10% in 2024, while money supply growth hit a two-year high.

Are tariffs responsible for that? Of course not. But the Fed wants you looking anywhere but at their balance sheet.

Back in 2020, the Fed printed more money in a few months than in decades—all to finance a government spending binge of historic proportions. Then they kept interest rates artificially low, ensuring that inflation would spiral out of control. In 2024, after pretending to tighten policy, they panicked, slammed the brakes on balance sheet reductions, and cut rates again in September—right in the middle of an inflation crisis.

Why? Because the real purpose of the Federal Reserve isn’t to "stabilize" the economy. It’s to prop up a government that spends itself into oblivion and bail out the corrupt financial elite every time the system starts to crack.

And let’s not forget this chilling number:

• The M2 money supply exploded from $15.4 trillion in 2020 to $21.45 trillion in 2024—a 39.3% increase in just four years.
• Over that same period, official CPI inflation rose almost 25%—with gas, food, and essentials up 40% or more.

This is theft. And it’s happening right in front of your eyes.

How the Fed’s Narrative Machine Works

So, what’s the playbook here? Simple.

1. The Fed floods the market with cheap money. Inflation follows.
2. They delay action, pretend they have things under control, then panic when inflation gets out of hand.
3. They need a scapegoat. First, it was "supply chain disruptions." Then it was "greedy corporations." Now, it’s tariffs.
4. They keep printing, keep bailing out Washington’s spending addiction, and keep gaslighting you about the cause of inflation.

This isn’t speculation. The FOMC minutes already hint at the next phase of the lie. Fed Chair Jerome Powell is talking about a "very, very wide range of possibilities" regarding tariffs—translation: they’re setting up their excuse. If inflation keeps climbing, it won’t be because of reckless monetary policy. No, no, they’ll tell you—it’s those pesky tariffs!

This is the same nonsense we’ve seen before. But here’s what the Fed and the establishment economists won’t tell you:

• Tariffs can shift price pressures between industries, but they don’t create systemic, economy-wide inflation.
• If the money supply remains unchanged, tariffs would actually force prices down in other areas because consumer purchasing power stays the same.
• Inflation only becomes persistent and widespread when the government and the Fed print trillions to cover spending excesses—and that’s exactly what’s happening.

So why the deflection? Because they need you distracted while they continue robbing you blind.

What Happens Next (And How You Can Fight Back)

Let’s be clear: the Fed isn’t going to stop printing money. The government isn’t going to stop spending itself into oblivion. And inflation isn’t going away—no matter how many times they blame tariffs, corporations, or foreign bogeymen.

They’ll keep debasing the dollar, keep driving up your cost of living, and keep telling you it’s all someone else’s fault.

If you don’t want to be one of their victims, you need to start protecting yourself now.
