Godwin’s Law

“Out-of-control ICE agents are terrorizing our communities. … They’re tearing people out of their homes, out of the windows of their cars, and illegally detaining people who have brown skin. This is fascism, pure and simple.” —Rep. Emily Randall (D-WA)

“When the Americans liberated Dachau after World War II, after the Holocaust, Dwight D. Eisenhower said, ‘Take pictures of these concentration camps, because years will go by and people will not believe this happened.’ So, this administration does not really like somebody like Don Lemon who has a camera, who has a position like we do in a way to speak to the people and tell them what really is going on.” —"The View" co-host Joy Behar

Dumb & Dumber

“I bet you there are a lot of people that voted for Trump that wish that Kamala Harris is in the White House.” —"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin

“The Clintons are playing chess while everybody else is playing checkers.” —"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin

Truth Bomb

“Cisgender is a made-up word. … That means nothing. Do not call me cisgender. I am a woman.” —Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY)

For the Record

“Americans are divided on whether enforcement should target only criminal illegal immigrants or extend more broadly. But the overwhelming consensus is clear: Targeting criminal illegal immigrants is popular. That is precisely why Democrats are attempting to blur the distinction.” —Ben Shapiro

“Yet again, the Left’s worldview is on full display. The ‘enemy’ is not gang members or drug pushers. It’s parents. Just like the ‘enemy’ is not criminal illegal aliens, but American citizens and law enforcement.” —Gary Bauer

“A nation that shrugs at repeated incursions invites more. America must respond with clarity, enforcement, and consequences before normalization becomes negligence.” —Armstrong Williams

Belly Laugh of the Day

“I’m black. I’m American. I have a DD-214. I have a law degree. I own a company. I’m running for Congress. But dadgumit, I cannot seem to figure out how to obtain a valid ID to save my life. Pass the SAVE ACT!” —Texas congressional candidate Sholdon Daniels making fun of the soft bigotry of low expectations

And Last…

“Democracy may die in darkness, but the Washington Post is dying in the light of day. RIP.” —Laura Ingraham
