“The Nazis ultimately lost. Nazi ideology was outlawed through de-nazification. One day we will see the de-MAGA-ification of this country. It will come. And you know what else happened? Leaders of the Nazi regime were prosecuted and tried as war criminals.” —radio host Lenard “Charlamagne” McKelvey

“I’m not trying to upset Latinos. This is said because I know my history. [S]lave patrols were some sort of military-like-ish policing force that was going out and grabbing and disappearing people based upon their skin color. People were having to walk around and show their papers. … That’s what it looks like to me.” —Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) comparing ICE to slave patrols

“You’re a f***ing fascist pig. You should f***ing kill yourself. I hope your wife dies. I hope your mom and dad die. I hope everything wrong that could go in your life happens.” —a voicemail left for an ICE agent

Demagogues

“We are not a nation that guns down our citizens in the street. We are not a nation that allows our citizens to be brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights. … Minnesotans have reminded us all what it is to be American, and they have suffered enough at the hands of this Administration.” —former President Joe Biden

“To me it is very clear that the mission the president and Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller and JD Vance and all of them sent these federal officials on is a mission to violate people’s constitutional rights.” —Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro

“When you publicly execute two people within 10 days, there have to be consequences.” —Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA)

Memo to Tim Walz

“Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable. Despite tensions in Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges.” —U.S. Holocaust Museum

For the Record

“In a matter of 24 hours, Tim Walz went from claiming this is an Anne Frank situation to collaborating with what he suggested are the latter-day SS.” —Sohrab Ahmari

“I’m looking at that whole situation. I love everybody. I love all of our people. I love [Alex Pretti’s] family. And it’s a very sad situation.” —Donald Trump

“It’s perfectly reasonable to believe a shooting was bad and still believe ICE’s overall purpose is right. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a partisan hack.” —David Harsanyi

“In Georgia, a 26-year-old illegal alien with no prior record raped an 11-year-old girl at knifepoint. The illegal alien came here during the Biden Administration. It is why we must deport more than those convicted of crimes. This guy had no prior record.” —Erick Erickson

Re: The Left

“[Minneapolis] Mayor [Jacob] Frey thinks there is a ‘moral imperative’ to not cooperate with federal law enforcement. … Just imagine the reaction if any elected Republican said there was a ‘moral imperative’ to not cooperate with federal environmental laws, federal gun laws, or federal tax laws.” —Gary Bauer

“In Virginia, we just swore in a Democrat attorney general who fantasized about the murders of his political opponents’ children. This is the alternative to the Republican Party, and this is who they elect as top law enforcement officials. Is there any doubt that our civil liberties will be in jeopardy if they get power again?” —Gary Bauer

Shot/Chaser

“The snow feels nothing like the snow we grew up with — that’s for sure. I’ve always thought this is the true purpose of NASA. Spraying chemicals and weather modification.” —Candace Owens after wondering why ice isn’t melting at 30 degrees

“As I understand it, Charlie Kirk invented a time machine, went back in time to Israel, told the Jews to invent something called Fahrenheit and set it to only melt ice at 32 degrees, and let everybody know except Candace Owens.” —Erick Erickson
