Fascists tell more and more egregious lies and dare you to call them liars.

This fucking guy...

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 1 points 3 minutes ago

Dunno if anyone here would know about the moment on TV where the PMLN witch was complaining about egg prices in eggs per kilo

Because regular people definitely buy eggs in kilos.

Jesus you cannot make this shit up lol

"So tell us JD, how will you help lower the price of eggs if elected?"

Ok, good.

[-] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago

As a reporter, I'd ask him why, as a current sitting Senator, Vance himself hasn't done anything to help lower the price of eggs even while his colleagues in the Senate and the House are.

27 Representitives and Senators calling for a block of the merger between Kroger and Albertsons: link

...Vance was not among those calling for a block of the merger of the price fixing grocery store..

"eggs, butter, some bread... whatever makes sense"

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 35 points 6 hours ago

Well. At least they used the word lying in the title. The scare quotes don't help anyone but whatever.

“The WOKE made the eggs prices skyrocket!!”

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 62 points 10 hours ago

“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,”

JD Vance, a US senator who barely won Ohio despite being a republican

[-] Juice@midwest.social 7 points 6 hours ago

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

[-] Fedizen@lemmy.world 85 points 12 hours ago

he's so incompetent. Its amazing how often he just walks into the rakes.

[-] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 24 points 11 hours ago

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.)

Vulture Capital, more like.
