Politicians really need to start being held accountable for blatant lies... they don't even try anymore, which means it will only get worse. Lying like this should be punishable.
Political Memes
Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil

No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
The voters are supposed to hold them accountable. It's just rotten from the bottom up.

I see this in a lot in my red town. There are a lot of infrastructure projects and they all say "project x funded by the republicans for initiative or whatever" and then you go to the website and in the fine print it says that initiative was itself funded with IRA money.
I really wasn't sure about the IRA at the time; I had big sticker shock at $5 trillion dollars. But seeing my middle-of-nowhere-in-particular town get big big projects funded with it has convinced me that this is landmark legislation that history will recognize as significant.
Now extend the northeast corridor to the rest of the country please! I want more passenger rail! I demand better train service!
My take is, both parties bad, one far worse.
