Thursday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Gina Raimondo, Sunny Hostin, Whoopi Goldberg, Milton Friedman, and more.

Braying Jenny

“How did we get here? Let’s extinguish [Trump] for good.” —Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo

The BIG Lies

“I never fully believed the assertions that somehow there was this overwhelming reluctance my running again. I didn’t sense that. … I was confident I would beat Trump.” —Joe Biden

“[Trump] really does not — does not — believe in democracy and the guardrails that our system has set up for the abuse of power.” —Joe Biden

Letting the Cat Out of the Bag

“As vice president, there wasn’t a single thing that I did that [Harris] couldn’t do. And so I was able to delegate her responsibility on everything from foreign policy to domestic policy” —Joe Biden

Delusions of Grandeur

“I truly believe that [Biden’s] legacy will be etched in the history books as [George] Washington; as someone who put that ego aside and put his country first.” —"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin

“After 50 years of proud public service, President Joe Biden stepped up to lead us out of the dark … and became one of the most substantial presidents of the past half-century.” —"The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg

For the Record

“After more than 50 years of ‘public service,’ Biden leaves the nation and the world a worse place. It is somehow fitting that one of his revisionist and deceitful farewell speeches was given to the contemptible body known as the UN.” —Nate Jackson

Observations

“The word ‘sanctuary’ sounds charitable. Don’t be fooled. It doesn’t mean welcoming the downtrodden. It actually bars police from sharing arrest information with Immigration and Customs Enforcement so that the agency can take illegals arrested for violent crimes into custody and deport them.” —Betsy McCaughey

“The Biden administration … doesn’t understand the concept of deterrence — making an enemy fear what you might do to him, rather than allowing the enemy to set the pace for a conflict or to constrain your actions out of worry over what he might do next.” —Rich Lowry

Inquiring Minds Want to Know

“The Jewish state is expected to accept as background noise unprovoked attacks on its sovereign territory that no other state would ever abide. What other country is asked to bear the rocketing of its civilian population as the price for faux regional comity?” —Rich Lowry

Insight

“Inflation is made in Washington because only Washington can create money. And any other attribution to other groups of inflation is wrong. … What produces it is too much government spending and too much government creation of money and nothing else.” —economist Milton Friedman

And Last…

“Capitalists create new wealth. They don’t take a big slice of the pie and leave us a sliver. If they get rich, it’s because they find ways to bake lots of new pies. That’s what’s happened in America. Its why today, even poor Americans have access to things European kings only dreamed about.” —John Stossel
