what does "if you were Pinocchio right now and we could saw off your nose and have enough firewood to last the winter" mean?

It means that the speaker is addressing a person he considers a big liar.

Maybe he's talking to a politician???

I assume you remember the story of Pinocchio.

That means when his nose grew with lies, he can just cut off his nose to make it short again and put it in the fireplace.
