Wednesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Ashley Biden, Eric Swalwell, Victor Davis Hanson, Karoline Leavitt, Rob Schneider, Matt Walsh, and more.

Circling the Wagons

“The truth is, Dad gave his ALL to America and continues til this day. He NEVER gave up on you. And he listened to all of you. And he acted. The man has led his life by ACTIONS not words. He aged, YES! As we all do! And the stress of the presidency accelerates. But he was always MORE than capable of doing the job. And a damn good one. He worked harder than anyone I have ever known- he took his duty and sacred obligation to this country very seriously. The noise is so DAMN disrespectful and untrue …AND, it’s just that- noise/static- created by those committed to perpetuating and profiting from some real BS. Get lost with your anonymous sources and fake news.” —Ashley Biden

Dumb & Dumber

“Republicans want poor people to die as quickly as humanly possible.” —CNN contributor Michael Fanone

“I agree. I don’t think that is a glitch, but that’s actually part of the design.” —Rep. Jasmine Crockett

Lawlessness

“When we start fighting back, whatcha gonna do? Y'all gonna shoot Americans then? ‘Cause that’s what we gonna start doing. We gonna start fighting back. … All y'all should put a bullet in y'all heads.” —a bystander threatening ICE agents during a lawful arrest of an illegal alien

Delusions of Grandeur

“I wear it as a badge of honor that [Republicans] would want to lie about me all the time because I think it means that I’m landing punches politically on them that sting. And frankly, I think a lot of Republicans look at me as like, 'Oh, that’s a straight, white, Christian male son of a cop.’ … It’s more of a betrayal to them.” —Rep. Eric Swalwell

For the Record

“I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.” —Elon Musk

Re: The Left

“Elon just TRASHED the Big, Beautiful, Bill. This is the part where the media stops pretending he’s a Nazi and starts calling him a genius again.” —Jimmy Failla

“Spare us the sanctimonious lectures on ‘tyranny’ and ‘dictatorship’ from the very ideologues who have done and are doing more to wreck the Constitution and destroy the confidence of the American people in the rule of law than any generation in modern memory.” —Victor Davis Hanson

“The Washington Post actually had this headline: ‘The mysterious drop in fentanyl seizures on the U.S./Mexico border.’ How is this mysterious? There is no mystery about why there is a decrease in fentanyl coming into the United States. This administration’s strong border policies are the reason there has been a decrease in fentanyl trafficking.” —White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt letting WaPo have it for its biased reporting

Oracle’s Warning

“What’s FAR SCARIER than CHINA making OUR SOLAR PANELS… CHINA MAKES MOST OF OUR MEDICINES! Do YOU want CHINA making YOUR DRUGS and not knowing if they’re putting something ELSE IN them that YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT?!” —Rob Schneider

Born This Way?

“How do LGBT ideologues explain Jojo Siwa? She ‘came out’ as ‘lesbian’ four years ago. Is she no longer? LGBT activists say that’s impossible — that sexual orientation is immutable. Was she just wrong? LGBT activists say you can’t be wrong about your identity. So how’d it happen?” —Michael Knowles

And Last…

“Every child has a right to a mom and a dad. It’s what nature intends. It’s how God designed it.” —Matt Walsh
