Wednesday Short Cuts
Notable quotables from Steven Horsford, Shontel Brown, Jake Tapper, Brandon Johnson, and more.
Dumb & Dumber
“The president that I see every day … is robust. He’s lucid. He’s clear. He’s direct.” —National Security Council spokesman John Kirby
“What I find interesting is the issue is more around ageism and ableism and not what this president … has done.” —Congressman Steven Horsford (D-NV)
“The fact that the president can admit his shortcomings I think is a blessing. I think it demonstrates his integrity. I think it demonstrates his authenticity. And I think it demonstrates how genuine he is when it comes to telling the truth.” —Congresswoman Shontel Brown (D-OH)
Who Wants to Tell Her?
“We do not expect Joe Biden to lie.” —"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin
World’s Smallest Violin
“We do our best to give you the information that we have at the time. … And so, to say that I’m holding information or allude to anything else … is really, really unfair.” —White House Press Secretary Karine “Baghdad Bob” Jean-Pierre
Friendly Fire
“It remains quite telling that in the Biden campaign’s efforts to show that the president has not missed a step, his campaign felt the need to feed questions to the host for a call-in radio interview. And the president still, even then, failed to deliver in many of his answers.” —CNN’s Jake Tapper
“I don’t think he can serve four more years.” —ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos
“It’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run. We’re all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short.” —Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
The Bottom Line
“Why has the President’s doctor, Dr. O'Connor, never recommended Joe Biden take a cognitive test? Why was Dr. O'Connor involved in the Biden family’s business schemes? This is medical malpractice or a coverup.” —Congressman James Comer (R-KY)
“The Biden White House, far-left House Democrats, and the mainstream media are in complete disarray because they … have been caught participating in one of the greatest media coverups in American history.” —Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY)
Belly Laugh of the Day
“I have never looked at opportunities in Washington, DC, with a lot of excitement. … That’s not something that I am angling for.” —Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer
Non Compos Mentis
“Black death has been unfortunately accepted in this country for a very long time. We had a chance 60 years ago to get at the root causes. And people mocked President Johnson, and we ended up with Richard Nixon.” —Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson
“I think it was a wonderful idea that we have a registry of every gun that is owned by a civilian in the United States of America.” —Congresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ)
For the Record
“The increasing culture of government dependency threatens our freedoms. For example, in 1945, 1.5% of our federal budget was allocated to social programs. Today, it consumes 65% of the budget. This reliance empowers the government and strips people of their ability to control their destinies.” —Nicholas Giordano
