The BIG Lies

Can’t Fix Stupid

“I haven’t thought much about comparing presidents on the question of securing the border.” —Zohran Mamdani

Who Wants to Tell Him?

“No.” —Bill Clinton when asked, “Have you ever lied while under oath?”

Non Compos Mentis

“Trump murdered Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, former president of Iran, who — whatever you think of him — was a civilian, not in the military, and so it was murder, plain and simple. As illegal and as murderous as Iran bombing and killing, say, George W Bush at his home in Dallas.” —"journalist" Mehdi Hasan

FAFO

“The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) killed more than 1,000 Americans over the past 47 years. [Saturday], a large-scale U.S. strike cut off the head of the snake. America has the most powerful military on earth, and the IRGC no longer has a headquarters.” —U.S. Central Command

“We also projected four weeks to terminate the military leadership and, as you know, that was done in about an hour, so we’re ahead of schedule there.” —President Donald Trump

“Turns out the regime who chanted ‘Death to America!’ and ‘Death to Israel!’ was gifted death from America and death from Israel.” —Secretary of War Pete Hegseth

For the Record

Re: The Left

“Here’s the depressing reality: In their quest to transform America, the Left transformed our vital intelligence agencies into weapons aimed at us. And the rot runs deep.” —Gary Bauer

“It’s coercion at its highest level. It’s telling a parent that you either need to transition your child or you don’t get to keep your child. It’s forcing a parent to socially transition their child and later medicalize their child.” —Attorney Erin Friday reporting on the legal situation in California for parents of gender-confused children

Owens: Persona Non Grata

“Joe McCarthy was famously undone by the rhetorical questions at a 1954 congressional hearing, ‘Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?’ If the same queries were directed to Candace Owens at such a forum, she’d sail on unperturbed — since she has no idea what ‘decency’ means.” —Rich Lowry

Belly Laugh of the Day

“Congress needs to cut the [crap] and pass the Save Act. Even SOMALIA requires ID to vote and they don’t even require KIDS to RUN a Daycare.” —Jimmy Failla
