Something something "we need a good businessman in politics".
Someone who isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves and break the law
The ironic thing is this is brought forward by companies that have very likely also participated by price fixing themselves. Fuck them all.
Oh. So he fucked over other rich assholes. The courts might actually take this seriously.
What an asshole.
Just remember, though: He may have been a crooked price fixing asshole, but the other one was endorsed by King Asshole.
He probably punches six babies before bedtime.
Huh, and here I thought it was Biden setting the prices for everything, including eggs, to specifically hurt the deplorables and bring about the New World Order run by the Deep State. Or something.
Well this is obviously fake news and it's Biden and the cannibalistic deep state lizard people framing a good Christian Republican.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The family farming company of a Republican candidate for the US Senate was found liable on Tuesday in a plot to fix the price of eggs.
Rose Acre Farms, which claims to be the second-largest egg producer in the country and until September was chaired by John Rust – now running as a Senate candidate for Indiana – was accused in a civil suit of cutting supply to raise prices.
Food giants including Kraft, Kellog, General Mills and Nestlé filed the suit in Illinois federal court, arguing that between 1999 and 2008 Rose Acre and other producers – Cal-Maine Foods, United Egg Producers and United States Egg Marketers – “unlawfully agreed to and did engage in a conspiracy to control supply and artificially maintain and increase the price of eggs”.
The food giants argued that, as companies which buy eggs, these moves hurt them by artificially driving up their costs.
His candidacy for Senate has met setbacks: his opponent, Congressman Jim Banks, was endorsed by the Indiana Republican party and, perhaps more important for GOP candidates, by ex-president Donald Trump.
“Today’s verdict proves John Rust isn’t just a conman pretending to be a Republican, he is a crook who exploits working-class Hoosiers across Indiana for his own financial gain,” the Associated Press quoted Banks as saying.
