'Sharp as a Tack': X Users Suggest Alternative PolitiFact ‘Lie of the Year’

@KeenanPeachy

PolitiFact is out with its "Lie of the Year," and they're awarding it to Donald Trump and J.D. Vance for spreading the lie that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were capturing and eating people's pets.

… that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were eating cats and dogs.

We're not sure we ever believed Haitians were eating people's pets, but the concept blessed us with so many wonderful AI-generated memes of Trump surrounded by cats. Vote for Trump to save the kitties!

Perhaps it was a lie, but it did bring to America's attention what was going on in Springfield. Back in July, the New York Post reported that Ohio's senators were asking for help from the federal government to help the town of around 60,000 to build housing for 20,000 Haitian immigrants. That's a lot of people to import into a town that size and grant temporary protected status.

Nevertheless, a lot of people had another suggestion for "Lie of the Year."

These all qualify:

According to the public, the biggest lie of the year was that Joe Biden was sharp as a tack and fit to run for reelection in 2024, but you'd have to present that award to a lot of people. Runners-up include "I won't pardon my son" and "The border is secure."

Personally, we like the lie that Biden's uncle was shot down in World War II and eaten by cannibals. Eating Uncle Bosie > Eating cats.
