Rep. Van Orden: "Listen, the average American has been browbeaten into thinking that things are so much worse than they were under the Biden administration. That's just a lie. Eggs were $9 a dozen. I went to Walmart the other day, it was a buck 50."

Yes, the bird flu problem that caused a brief but significant spike in egg prices has passed. Now let’s talk about all of Trump’s self-inflicted economic missteps.

True however he's lying. Walmart Great Value eggs never got higher than $4.50 in my area and are $1.87 at the moment. Republicans get away with lying because the MSM reports the lie as a "side" open to debate where people might have different opinions. Facts are not opinions.

They did get higher than that at least in parts of Wisconsin--I'm in Milwaukee and have a picture of $10.29 mass market eggs (at a small midscale grocery chain that serves a large Latino population), but that picture is from March 2025.

And of course March 2025 is under Trump although I'm sure Biden would be blamed.
