It's almost like he lied just to get into office and then do whatever he wanted.
He lied openly and his voterbase ate it the fuck up. Ate everything, unquestioned. Standing there with their stupid thick skulls nodding unashamedly "UH HUH! YUP! U DU U TRUMP, U HAVE MUH VOTE!".
My brother asked me if I was better off 4 years ago right before the election. I pointed out the USA had one of the best recoveries after the pandemic lock downs and asked what he think Trump would have done different. He didn't answer. Ignoring that 4 years ago we were filling the impacts of Trumps government, not Bidens, I have to ask if he's better off now than he was almost 4 months ago. I'm betting the honest answer would be no.
Criminals do tend to lie in an attempt to avoid prison.

Can't Trump just declare the bird flu as nonsense like COVID? That'll surely fix the prices.
Actually, what I fully expect from this administration is to have the USDA stop inspections and declare the bird flu over. If they are really brazen, they'll tell farmers to not cull the birds and to stop all testing of bird flu.
This is how our country dies.
I'm not happy about it or anything, but at least in this scenario it becomes entirely feasible for all of these fascist clowns to (technically anyway) choke to death on cock, so I'm understandably conflicted

The ostrich method appears to be popular lately. We’ve banned all discussion of climate change for example in at least one state. We’ve even passed the law saying it isn’t real.
I don’t get it. If the method is so effective, just say it’s gone.
Birds... Migrations.... Immigrants! There ... blame deflection complete in two steps only.

The lack of response to the bird flu is clearly the speculation driver here.
Kirk also argued that Trump and the effort of his administration’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency will lead to savings for all Americans, and said egg prices will come down soon.
Everyone knows that illegally firing career federal employees results in lower prices on eggs...
/s
Yeah, firing the people responsible for dealing with a disease that kills chickens will surely make the price go down.

I swore I'd post this everytime Charlie Kirk gets mentioned, so here I am:
I looked at the code for this a couple nights ago, the whole Navy seal copypasta is in there, lol.
For the uninitiated:
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

He will never lower the price of eggs. And soon he will crash the economy. No one will have money for eggs, which will cost $20/dozen. He is crashing our Democracy & economy. I can't wait until he tries to remove all the gold bars from Treasury and flee the country.
I can see why so many news sites are trying to replace their writers with AI. This article is just a little bit of context followed by a dump of social media posts.
