From the Loony Left
“Up until right about now, you might’ve noticed I always say ‘inshallah’ ... whenever the outcome of this race was mentioned. But tonight, we can turn that inshallah into a alhamdulillah.” —Michigan Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed
“Thank you, Mr. President. Our thank you will come in January — with subpoenas.” —Arizona Rep. Yassamin Ansari
“We’re going to toss out subpoenas like Mardi Gras beads.” —New Jersey Rep. Analilia Mejia
“LAWYER UP.” —California Rep. Robert Garcia
“The New Dems are here. ... You’re right — lawyer up. ... All gas on this thing until MAGA is crushed completely and thoroughly and a museum is erected with every single fascist’s name and every single person who gave money to these ... bigots.” —Jennifer Welch
“WE’RE GONNA PUT YOUR A** IN JAIL EVERYONE GET MORE WOKE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” —Hasan Piker
“We need to say in the first week, ‘We’re gonna recognize a Palestinian state ... and we’re gonna stop protecting Israel in the United Nations.’” —California Rep. Ro Khanna
From the Reasonable Right
“The problem was not the Iran War. It was the cease fire. If you start a war, you need to win it and finish it — otherwise don’t start it. This war should have been over six months ago.” —Ari Fleischer
“War is bad, but so is an absolute unwillingness to ever go to war.” —Ian Haworth
“Every freakshow podcaster on the ‘Right,’ from Tucker to Candace and everyone in between spent the last two years demoralizing their 10s of millions of listeners with the message that the GOP betrayed them... So millions of demoralized people on the Right stayed home. ... The base didn’t show up because they were told it didn’t matter. And they’re about to spend 2 years re-learning why it did matter.” —Joel Berry
“The loss of Charlie Kirk and the rise of the grift industrial complex and its 2-year demoralization campaign tore the conservative coalition to shreds. Trump failed to hold that coalition together.” —Jeremy Boreing
“The assassination of Charlie Kirk could have easily led to the biggest awakening and red wave in American history. Instead, Candace Owens hijacked it and made it about herself.” —Caleb Hull
“I’m certain Democrats will overplay their hand. But it’s clear the GOP will have no shot if it keeps following [the] lead of podcast weirdos and paleo DC think tanks.” —David Harsanyi
“A big majority of voters had seen and heard more than enough of [Trump]. ... At its core, Tuesday was [a] total beatdown of the president, his policies and personality.” —Michael Goodwin
“The American electorate may have once had a tolerance for Trump-style, in-your-face, below the belt nasty politics... But that tolerance has long since evaporated.” —Jim Geraghty
“Here’s the thing: Democrats are unpopular. They were able to win based off the sentiment that exists in the country right now. They did not earn a mandate to indulge all their left-wing fantasies. ... This was a rejection of Republicans in Washington, and Democrats just happened to be the beneficiary.” —Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis
“My party got crushed [Tuesday] night and you know what? I’m not threatening to flee to Canada or trashing my country, because unlike the left, I see my country as more than a vehicle to political power. This is my home. And I’ll never stop fighting for it.” —Nick Freitas
“If America is over when your team loses an election, you’re not really a patriot, you’re an idol worshipper.” —Erick Erickson
“There’s reason to be concerned, yes, but not to be discouraged. God’s eternal plan of redemption is always going off without a hitch. He’s never taken aback. He never has anxiety. He’s never wondering what the outcomes will be. He’s in control.” —Allie Beth Stuckey
Belly Laugh of the Day
“Data centers in space looking pretty appealing right now.” —Elon Musk
