Good News

“We 15 recipients of the Medal of Honor, having served this great nation in wars, support and endorse Donald J. Trump for President of the United States.” —Medal of Honor letter endorsing Trump

Political Futures

“I’m worried about Americans who feel like there were problems in 2020. … I’m talking about something very discrete, a problem of censorship in this country that I do think affected things in 2020. And more importantly, that led to Kamala Harris’s governance, which has screwed this country up in a big way.” —JD Vance

Narcissistic Revision

“Some people think, ‘Wow, I remember that economy when he first came in being pretty good.’ Yeah, it was pretty good — ‘cause it was my economy.” —Barack Obama on the Trump economy

Bordering on Insanity

“I will put my record up against anyone in terms of the work I have always done and will always do to ensure we have a secure border.” —Kamala Harris

For the Record

“[Harris] did a media blitz of — she went on Howard Stern and Stephen Colbert and 'The View’ — places where I would say the a** is pre-kissed.” —Bill Maher

“One of the things that says to me that she hasn’t entirely internalized the strategic elements of the campaign and where it’s at is the answer on ‘The View’ about what she would do differently from Biden. … There are many, many ways she could have answered that question without looking like she was running away from Biden, but the answer she gave was uniquely bad.” —David Axelrod

Rule of Law

“This is probably the most separated, divorced relationship we’ve ever had with the White House. And America’s sheriffs, that’s where the frustration lies. This is the first president never to meet with America’s sheriffs.” —Mark Dannels, sheriff of Cochise County, AZ, and chair of the National Sheriffs Association’s border security committee

“With the support of our Attorney General, we will defend these commonsense steps, that we are legally required to take, with every resource available to us. Virginia’s election will be secure and fair, and I will not stand idly by as this politically motivated action tries to interfere in our elections.” —Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin on the Biden-Harris DOJ lawsuit against removing ineligible voters from the state’s rolls

Regrets

“What was supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs has been construed as something it was never intended to be, and I apologize for that.” —Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer on her lewd and deeply offensive mockery of Holy Communion.

Rudderless

“When we think about what’s at stake in this election, well, it’s packed with some stuff! Some fundamental stuff! I say rather articulately.” —Kamala Harris, speaking without a teleprompter
