From the Loony Left
“It’s a joke. It’s a symbol of racism, really, is what the [border] wall represents. It does nothing.” —Nebraska Senate candidate Dan Osborn

“We not only expanded Medicaid, but we [are the] only state in America providing universal healthcare regardless of preexisting condition, ability to pay, and your immigration status. I know how offensive that is to people and I get how controversial that is. We delivered that.” —California Governor Gavin Newsom

“We’re in that [9/11] situation right now with the whole political situation.” —actor Robert De Niro

“Already, so many people in Nepal are talking about climate justice. They feel like the warming climate, that climate change is contributing to these types of events [floods], and they’re paying a disproportionate price for them.” —National Geographic’s Ben Ayers

Non Compos Mentis
“We call them ‘trigger pullers’ in our community.” —Seattle Interim Police Chief Andre Sayles regarding shooters

From the Reasonable Right
“James Talarico, I think, is a dangerous candidate. I think substantively, he is radical and extreme, but he’s very good at seeming charming. He’s very good at seeming innocuous. Personally, I prefer my wolves in wolves’ clothing, not in sheep’s clothing.” —Texas Senator Ted Cruz

“In just about eight weeks, voters across the country are going to pass judgment on Republican control of Congress. Trump won’t be on the ballot Nov. 3, but jobs will be — especially those in manufacturing. They’ll be lost if a Democratic Congress adds its power to the campaign in the courts that’s trying to drag America back to the age of offshoring.” —Daniel McCarthy

“We believe if we could just take the fraud out of Medicare, we would double the life expectancy of the Medicare trust fund, which means not only would you have it for your retirement, but it could be there for your kids as well.” —CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz

“The man who refused to allow a not guilty verdict is a hero. And this is the importance of one voice on a jury, because he was willing for six days to stand up to these other 11. And based on the interviews, it sounds like the people who wanted [Lindsay Clancy] found not guilty were able to persuade a lot of other jurors who did find her guilty.” —Clay Travis

“A society that can excuse the murder of three young children by their mother because she was ‘ill’ is a society that, itself, is afflicted by a terminal illness.” —Christine Flowers
