Thursday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Chris Murphy, Gary Peters, Kamala Harris, Christine Flowers, and more.

The BIG Lies

“Kamala Harris should run on her record of successfully reducing [migrant] flows to the United States.” —Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT)

“Kamala Harris was not named border czar.” —Sen. Chris Murphy

“She was not the [border] czar.” —Senator Gary Peters (D-MI)

Belly Laugh of the Day

“In this campaign, I will proudly put my record against [Trump’s] any day of the week. … Including, for example, on the issue of immigration.” —Kamala Harris

Who Wants to Tell Her?

“This is a people-powered campaign.” —Kamala Harris, who didn’t win a single primary

Demagoguery

“We who believe in the freedom to live safe from gun violence will finally pass universal background checks, red flag laws, and an assault weapons ban.” —Kamala Harris

Food for Thought

“[Kamala Harris] was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black, and now she wants to be known as black. So I don’t know — is she Indian, or is she black? I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she became a black person. And I think somebody should look into that.” —Donald Trump

Theater of the Absurd

“No one has any right to tell someone who they are, how they identify. … She is the vice president of the United States, Kamala Harris. We have to put some respect on her name, period.” —White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre (“This from a lesbian who thinks people have the right to identify as a gender other than their actual gender and demand you use the pronouns of their choice.” —Mark Alexander)

For the Record

“The media’s shift in position regarding Harris has been whiplash-inducing. After all, we were told in 2020 that she had run one of the worst campaigns in modern presidential history… Then we were told that she was one of the worst vice presidents in modern history… But now all is forgiven.” —Ben Shapiro

“Precisely what happened to turn Kamala Harris from a deeply disliked politician (35% approval rating) into an Obama-esque talent (44% approval rating)? Joe Biden dropped out. That’s it. That’s the whole thing.” —Ben Shapiro

“For some reason, we are encouraged to believe that the VP is a role model for all women, and that she speaks in our name. Without any official mandate or referendum, she has been anointed as the voice of American women, chosen to save democracy. … Kamala Harris does not represent women. She represents a select coterie who embraces abortion as the singular and definitive human right of our time.” —Christine Flowers

“When the 81-year-old president talked about ‘equity,’ it seemed clear he meant something along the lines of the old idea of ‘equality of opportunity,’ as opposed to ‘equality of outcome.’ The former is universally accepted; the latter is the opposite of the American way of life. Kamala Harris is different. When she talks about ‘equity,’ she means ‘equality of outcome.’” —Byron York

“In 2023, Harris bashed the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that colleges must base admissions on merit, not skin color. The ideal of a colorblind society, she said, means being blind to ‘the strength that diversity brings to classrooms, to boardrooms.’ Voters need to ask themselves whether they agree with Harris or want a society that treats people as individuals.” —Betsy McCaughey
