The lead topic on this morning’s Sunday shows: Money. There’s a lot of it floating around thanks to multiple rounds of COVID stimulus and not enough goods available for purchase thanks to supply-chain problems. Put that together and you get the biggest single-month jump in inflation in more than 30 years. The White House’s top two economic advisors are booked to spin an increasingly unspinnable reality, the transition from “transitory inflation” to something more enduring. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is set for “Face the Nation” while National Economic Council director Brian Deese drops by “This Week” and “State of the Union.” They’ll try to explain how everything Democrats already wanted to do, like the Build Back Better bill, just so happens to be the perfect solution to our new inflationary troubles.

Elsewhere, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy will chat with “Fox News Sunday” about the outlook for the pandemic as COVID cases begin to creep up again in the U.S. Murthy supports expanding booster shots to all American adults in hopes that restoring some degree of population immunity will hold down transmission as the winter wave builds. He’ll also address the timetable for bringing Pfizer’s and Merck’s new COVID pills to market. We’re doubtless close to exhausting the population of adults willing to get vaccinated so therapeutics may matter more to averting a huge death toll this winter than new vaccines will.

Finally, GOP Rep. Fred Upton will speak with “State of the Union” about what it’s like to be threatened with death for wanting to improve America’s roads and bridges. The full line-up is at the AP.
