Friday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Kamala Harris, Joy Reid, Chuck Schumer, Donald Trump, Laura Hollis, Buck Sexton, Scott Bessent, Armstrong Williams, and more.

Braying Jennies

“I’m not president right now. There’s nothing I can do about it.” —Kamala Harris responding to a heckler on her book tour

“I can’t stand JD Vance. … He could literally, like, rescue my cat out of a burning building and I would still hate JD Vance.” —Joy Reid

Demagogue

“I don’t know what’s happened [in Dallas], and I don’t know about the guns, but we need better laws on guns.” —Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer

Grim Reality

“We’re not shooting people. The Left is shooting people, and they’re being inspired by people.” —Ben Ferguson dispelling leftist “both sides” rhetoric on CNN

“The Right is a lot tougher than the Left, but the Right’s not doing this. They’re not doing it, and they better not get them energized, because it won’t be good for the Left. And I don’t want to see that happen either. I’m the president of all the people. … Radical-left Democrats are causing this problem.” —Donald Trump

“Leftist haters and unstable people, who are constantly being told they must ‘fight the fascists threatening our democracy,’ are predictably committing violent attacks.” —Gary Bauer

“There has been no respite, no collective impulse to pause and reflect, no bipartisan efforts to eliminate dangerous and hyperbolic accusations, no unified calls for behavior we once agreed reflected basic human decency. Brace yourselves. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.” —Laura Hollis

“While Kimmel is coming back, ponder this: If ABC decided to part ways, Kimmel could always find another job. Charlie Kirk’s daughter and son will never be able to find another father.” —Christine Flowers

“I don’t think [the Democrats] could turn it off now… I think they have unleashed this long enough on the American people that we’re going to have to continue to suffer through what are just waves of domestic terrorism.” —Buck Sexton

For the Record

“Democrats are about to shutdown the government because they demand we fund healthcare for illegal aliens.” —JD Vance

“[Kamala Harris] judges [Pete Buttigieg] on his identity, his sexuality. Let’s look and see whether he did a good job. Let’s look on merit, and I can tell you, on merit, he’s a failure, and on merit, she’s a failure.” —Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent

“Want free college for everyone? Lower standards, worse educational quality and fewer resources for students who need them most. Want universal health care overnight? Rationed care, longer wait times, worse services and fewer health care breakthroughs.” —Armstrong Williams
