Well. At least they used the word lying in the title. The scare quotes don’t help anyone but whatever.
Because these guys actually eat about 14 eggs every single morning
Motherfucker trying to raise an army of Gastons over there.
They’ll probably be this take on Gaston.
“If I have to create stories so that the American media actually has to pay attention to the suffering of American people, then that’s what I’m going to do,”
- Jack Dick Vance, a U.S. Senator representing Ohio.
JD Vance, a US senator who barely won Ohio despite being a republican
If he has to create stories so that the American media makes the ambitions of the most vile, ruthless and reactionary sections ruling class look like the suffering of the american people, then that’s what he’s going to do
he’s so incompetent. Its amazing how often he just walks into the rakes.
VC.
Reality is what you say it is.
(In case any readers are actually wondering; Venture Capitalism - JD Vance is the puppet of Paypal co-founder and Palantir spyware owner Peter Thiel. A far-right billionaire who promised trump millions of dollars if he put his plant, JD Vance, on the ticket so in the event trump wins and keels over (odds are good, yeah?) Peter Theil becomes de facto dictator and . . . does whatever evil a billionaire tech bro can’t get away with on that alone.)
Venereal… c’isease
Vicious Cunt
Price increases in eggs have largely been due to the outbreaks of avian flu and producers having to cull their stock, anyway. Not something Harris or Biden caused or could wave away with a wand.
That’s the justification, and maybe the catalyst, but prices have stayed higher than they were due to price gouging. It’s not Biden/Harris fault, but rather capitalism. They saw they could still make more profit while selling less at a higher price, so they kept doing so.
On top of that, the FTC under Biden/Harris has been investigating price gouging at the grocery store level and Kroger just came right out and admitted it. While vying for a merger with another conglomerate chain grocery.
We desperately need to break up Kroger, it’s not helping anyone anymore.
We desperately need to break up
Krogerevery large corporation, it’s not helping anyone anymoreFixed it for you.
Yeah and a bunch of other shit the FTC has done under Biden to protect consumers. But Biden will never get credit for any of that.
shit the FTC has done
Biden will never get credit for any of that.
Good. Just because he appointed the excellent Lina Khan doesn’t mean that he deserves credit for the work of her and the agency.
Especially since it’s a reasonably safe bet that her appointment wasn’t his idea to begin with, but rather that of a more progressive member of whichever committee suggests cabinet picks.
Doesn’t he, and his administration, deserve credit, even if it’s just for listening to other people? If it were a particular other president it wouldn’t happen, so his administration deserves to be praised for it. Criticize where it needs to be done, but also praise where it’s deserved. If you only criticize then you’re unable to be won and aren’t worth trying to win.
No, Biden doesn’t deserve credit for not being Trump. That’s putting the bar so low that you’d need specialized drilling or diving equipment to reach it.
Likewise, Biden does not deserve credit for not stopping people within his administration from doing good things that he himself would likely not have done.
If you only criticize then you’re unable to be won and aren’t worth trying to win.
Conversely, if you set the bar too low, demanding nothing except “don’t be ridiculously awful” from the people who have the power to enact positive change, that positive change will never happen.
I didn’t say for not being Trump. I said he deserves credit for what his administration has chosen to do. Regardless of who’s idea it is, his administration chose to listen to them, if it wasn’t from them. They deserve credit for that.
You aren’t even setting the bar too high. You’re not even setting it, and then saying they came in short. You’re saying they don’t deserve credit for something they literally did. How dumb is that?
Elizabeth Warren, btw.
She’s the one who recommended Khan? Well done, Warren!
Yeah. Was quite surprised when I first read that. Brazen.
well.
yes.
though, I’m pretty sure the FDA isn’t entirely powerless to create regulations about vaccinating livestock… oh fuck. Republicans shat on that, too.
I know this is one of the dumbest things to latch onto, but why do they keep talking about “Kamala Harris’s policies” like she’s the current president? If that were true, then Vance is a dementia addled lying sack of…
Huh, I guess I answered my own question.
Desperation, they really, REALLY wanted to run against Biden, where the age issue worked more for than against him.
They know they are fucked, their only option left is to bang on the table.
They want to try and pin some things that currently go on on her, because they assume, as the vice president, she could have some say in what the president does. The Orange Menace brought it up in the debate as well btw. 🙄
However, there is not much to pin on. Everything the republicans care for is going relatively well, given the circumstances. So they’re making things up.
I don’t think they assume she could have some say, I think it is just malice, a bad faith argument on their part. They know very well and also know that their base you eat it up because they already hate the other side, they just need something that resembles a reason.
I think it’s also that they’re acting as though Harris is secretly running the show since Biden is, according to their narrative, too old and senile to lead. I fully expect if Harris wins that in 2028 they’ll sue her on term limits when she runs.
It’s NOT one of the dumbest things to bring up.
We thank you for an amazing question.
He’s an admitted, unashamed liar. Don’t even give him the time of day.
This is probably why his boss hired him in the first place. Good god, Americans. Get out and vote!
A qualification, certainly, but no. He was brought on the ticket for Peter Thiel’s money and no other reason.
He’s really pathetic
I’m a Republican who does their Own Research and saw the Video and this is FAKE NEWS! Whatever Trump and Vance tell me is True is TRUE! Those Price Tags are FALSE just to make Vance look like a LIAR even though he said on TV he lied which was also FAKE NEWS! I’m not WEIRD!
Waiting for someone to complain that there is no “/s” in 3… 2…
There’s no “1” in your response! And another thing! There are too many memes these days that aren’t the two pictures of the black guy pointing any more. I am not a crank!
That was a really weird response. Where can I buy a flag with your name on it to put in my yard?
a Republican who does their Own Research
LOL, that was the best part of your joke!
So unshocking.
this is why I’m voting for the party of Any Competent Adult ™️
if I had ranked choice I’d be voting for Giant Meteor first. Just saying.
If we had ranked choice, I would be voting for Kodos then Kang then Giant Meteor.
Giant Meteor DOES solve the global climate change issue really easily.
it’ll also end partisan politics for a while,
Looks like JD Vance got a firmware update at least. A grocery store encounter with a prior revision might have looked like this:
Ok. Good. Whatever makes sense. How long have you worked here for?
“Eggs, yeah can I get 20? And make them chicken eggs.”
the onion would have said this was too on the nose.
The onion knew it was out gunned by reality, they were wise to pack it in.
They just started printing again, actually
I’ve actually been pleasantly surprised.
What does an egg cost, $10?

There’s always money in the egg stand
Have you even seen a chicken?
Vance is quite probably the worst VP pic in modern history. Palin riled up the base as intended. Mondale added gravitas as intended. What has Vance added to the Trump campaign?
And with Trump’s age and obvious cognitive decline, he’s not the future of MAGA. Trump won’t be the Fuhrer of Project 2025. Vance will be.
Silicon valley money. Hundreds of millions of dollars in dark money basically, and a lot of power brokers in tech working behind the scenes for the campaign.
He brings nothing from a “fill the gap” stance because he’s exactly like Trump, but less addled by age. The pick was stupid from that perspective but if you’re money hungry, he brought it.
I disagree, what he brings is obedience. Trump is a wildcard, Pence believed in America or at least that he might lose an attempted coup, but Vance does as he’s told and can change his behavior. He clearly doesn’t believe in anything but not in a chaotic way, more of a “I’ll believe what you tell me to” way.
What he’s holding is a flat, not a dozen.
Article mentions that.
“Alternative facts” strikes again.
