Then and Now

“I think the biggest security threat to Canada is China.” —Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, April 2025

“The progress that we have made in the partnership [with China] sets us up well for the new world order.” —Mark Carney, January 2026

Giving Away the Game

“Only good agent is a dead one.” —graffiti on a destroyed ICE vehicle in Minnesota

The BIG Lie

“Armed, masked, undertrained ICE agents are going door to door, ordering people to point out where their neighbors of color live.” —Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz

Lack of Self-Awareness Award

“Trump and Vance Are Fanning the Flames. Again.” —headline of an op-ed by David French, the consummate flame-fanner

Re: The Left

“Beyond the tragedy of a press we can no longer trust for truth, there is another tragedy. A large portion of the nation would rather protect illegal aliens from deportation than cooperate with the federal government.” —Erick Erickson

“Democrats want open borders, and they want criminal illegal aliens on our streets and federal immigration police in jail. They see the expulsion of each illegal alien as the loss of a future Democrat voter. Gov. Walz and Mayor Frey are getting very close to their Fort Sumter moment. Once they hit it, there is no going back.” —Gary Bauer

“‘Minnesota will remain an island.’ [Tim] Walz cannot be more explicit — this buffoon believes he is seceding from the Union. We are well into Insurrection Act territory.” —radio host Scott Jennings

For the Record

“I would not have personally advised Trump to issue such a clarion red line threat against the mullahs. But now that he has done so, it is imperative that Trump live up to his word. His continued credibility and America’s deterrent posture both depend on it.” —Josh Hammer

Hot Air

“After eco-leftists predicted certain climate-change doom by 1995, or by 2000, or by 2015, and now we’re still doom-less in 2026, the public should be skeptical that they’re the most credible experts on predicting what the future holds.” —Tim Graham

Insight

“One of the things [my father] taught: ‘No telling what a man can accomplish or where he can go if he doesn’t worry who gets the credit.’ And today we live in a world where everybody’s patting themselves on the back. And how’s that working out for us?” —Michael Reagan (1945-2026)

And Last…

“Because he deserves it. And it was a very emotional moment. I decided to present the Nobel Peace Prize medal on behalf of the people of Venezuela.” —Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado explaining why she gave her award to Donald Trump
