Democrats do the darndest, dastardly things, like suggesting the United States can save Social Security by killing off AARP members, according to a recent blog post. Democrat Senator Ginny Talia was talking with colleagues Monday and was overheard saying: Americans over 70 should just be euthanized, the May 10 story on news.bizwiznews.com says.

It seems this story first appeared on Daily World Update , a self-described satire site for flat earthers, Trumpsters and Y’all Qaeda. News.bizwiznews.com, meanwhile, does not make it clear that this story is a farce. We rate it Pants on Fire!
