The BIG Lies

“We have leadership that is sort of indiscriminately determining who belongs and who doesn’t. … Knowing that there’s so much bias and so much racism and so much ignorance that fuels those kind of choices, I worry for people of color all over this country. … And that … frightens me. It keeps me up at night.” —Michelle Obama (“Michelle Obama must not have gotten much sleep during her husband’s administration, when even Democrats derisively referred to President Barack Obama as ‘deporter-in-chief.’” —Larry Elder)

“ICE has deported nearly 140,000 people, often with no due process or real hearings. In our streets, the crackdown has reached a terrifying new level. Students have been disappeared. Their only crime is daring to demand an end to a genocide. This is the behavior of a dictator.” —Rep. Ilhan Omar

“We know how to remove people from the country who should not be here. President Biden’s administration did that!” —Rep. Jamie Raskin

Non Sequitur

“Donald Trump spent the last year and a half questioning the cognitive ability of President Joe Biden. … I think it’s fair that a lot of Americans across the country that I run into are questioning whether Donald Trump is actually fit at this point to be able to carry out the duties of the United States of America in terms of being the president and the commander-in-chief.” —House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries

Historical Ignorance

“If you take [diversity] away and try to distill us just down to white folks, we’ll be like Europe — an aging, slowly dying former empire. The Roman Empire didn’t survive because it didn’t have enough strength in its diversity. It suppressed its diversity, and it died. If the U.S. wants to be the Roman Empire, keep voting the way you’re voting, y'all.” —Joy Reid

Funny How That Works

“If deporting illegal aliens was moral when Obama did it 3 million times, then it’s moral now.” —Kevin McCullough

“It appears that America is at an interesting crossroads. We are struggling, well, some folks are, with understanding that illegal means illegal. If you have committed an action that is illegal, that means you have committed a crime.” —Allen West

Mine, Baby, Mine

“As we work to try to identify the balance sheet of America, our earliest estimate is that the coal resources in America just on public lands could be worth $8 trillion. That was all going to be taken off our balance sheet if we weren’t going to touch it — but now we’re back in business.” —Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum

Upright

“We can’t make government efficient, so the objective should be to limit government to things clearly only government can do. We have a handbook for this. It’s called the U.S. Constitution.” —Star Parker

Take Responsibility

“Yes, the Biden administration was an economic disaster, with inflation causing what may be generational damage. But Biden is no longer in office, and [Karoline] Leavitt can’t simply talk about Biden’s inflation every single time she’s forced to confront the not-so-secret reality of tariffs.” —Ian Haworth

For the Record

“People joke that Donald Trump does in a day what Joe Biden did in a month. It’s not a joke. It’s increasingly obvious that Biden personally wasn’t doing much of anything.” —Gary Bauer

“In case you wonder what we — and President Trump — are up against. [I have received] 100% NEGATIVE coverage from so-call ‘mainstream’ press in the first 100 days. PERFECT SCORE.” —Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth

Belly Laugh of the Day

“I don’t think I’ve ever worked so hard to try to fire myself. We’re certainly making great strides in that.” —Education Secretary Linda McMahon

And Last…

“And as I’ve said before, she’s entitled to her opinions. You know, my personal opinion is that God gave her a billy goat brain and a mockingbird mouth, you know?” —Sen. John Kennedy regarding AOC
