Monday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Chelsea Handler, Catherine Salgado, David Harsanyi, Josh Hammer, and more.

Village Idiots

“I don’t have anything against slanted coverage. I really don’t. … I would have something against it at most other times in American history, but not right now. F**k your objectivity. The real objectivity in this country right now is we’re either going to have a Constitution or we’re not.” —Democrat strategist James Carville

“I had to remind him [50 Cent] that he is a black person so he can’t vote for Donald Trump.” —"comedian" Chelsea Handler

Non Sequitur

“The former president, Donald Trump, handpicked three members of the United States Supreme Court with the intention that they would undo the protections of Roe v. Wade. … I mean, look at the Dred Scott decision. This is not the first time that we know the Court can make decisions that violate the civil rights of the people.” —Kamala Harris (“In 1857's Scott v. Sanford case, the Supreme Court ruled that one group of human beings were the legal property of a preferred group of human beings. … In 1973's Roe v. Wade case, the Supreme Court ruled that one group of human beings were the legal property of a preferred group of human beings.” —Peter Heck)

For the Record

“Joe Biden’s new executive order isn’t a solution to the border crisis; it just perpetuates the crisis. If Biden and the Democrats get their way, America will be getting one new foreign lawbreaker — ahem, migrant — for every two U.S. births. Yes, the Democrats are trying to replace you for their own political gain.” —Catherine Salgado

Lawfare

“In their efforts to save ‘democracy’ — a concept that’s been stripped of any meaning — Democrats have justified deploying the state to punish and destroy political enemies. For many progressives, the legal system isn’t merely a tool for criminal justice but a way to exact political justice. [Merrick] Garland is one of the leaders in this fight.” —David Harsanyi

“Biden is delighted that his own former prosecutor, a left-wing judge, and a Manhattan jury may well keep Trump off the campaign trail. So, it is past time for the media and Democrats to drop this ridiculous ruse of Biden’s White House ‘neutrality.’ Instead, they should admit that they are terrified of the will of the people in November and so are conniving to silence them.” —Victor Davis Hanson

“The press is upset at the rise of disinformation and misinformation. They should, instead, perhaps examine their own role in that rise. But they will not. The press corps, collectively, lacks the basic humility it demands in others.” —Erick Erickson

“The Rubicon, truthfully, is a shallow, inconsequential river in Italy. That it is so shallow helps explain why Julius Caesar was able to cross it so easily. At this juncture in American history, it no longer suffices to speak of crossing a Rubicon. We are now rapidly crossing great seas — perhaps even circumnavigating the globe. You might call President Joe Biden and the rest of the Democrat-lawfare complex our modern-day Magellans.” —Josh Hammer
