Hawkeye Senator Joni Ernst was caught on a hot mic on Tuesday taking a jab at Joe Biden for claiming his uncle may have been eaten by cannibals after his plane went down — a crazy lie, even for Joey.
“Bottom line, never trust a man whose uncle was eaten by cannibals,” Ernst said to fellow Senator John Kennedy after a press conference on the border crisis.
