The BIG Lie

“There were areas of disagreement within immigration policy … but I voiced my views.” —pro-open-border Biden DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas

Race Bait

“The ghost of the Confederacy has afflicted the United States Supreme Court majority and is invading and haunting the nation right now.” —House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY)

“If somebody fell asleep in 1896 and woke up today in 2026, they would simply say the only difference is now negroes have a TV show and we wear nice suits.” —CNN’s Bakari Sellers

“It is seriously disturbing for white folks to be lobbying to be the interim Mayor in Charlotte. Our mayor, who recently resigned, is a Black woman who is a registered Democrat. While Black representation is being undermined and stripped nationwide, White folks are either tone deaf or worse…. self-centered! It’s not about YOU!” —NAACP Charlotte-Mecklenburg Branch

Shot/Chaser

“Other Palestinian prisoners and human rights monitors have also cited reports of police dogs being coached to rape prisoners.” —New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof

“Israel faces an enemy that filmed its atrocities on October 7 and celebrated the barbarism as an act of resistance. Now that same enemy is trying to persuade the world that Israel is no different than Hamas. Woe to any journalist credulous enough to believe them.” —Eli Lake

Friendly Fire

“I’ve been a Democrat for 70 years. I now am strongly opposed to that party. … I want to see Democrats lose control of the House and lose control of the Senate and lose control of the presidency because I am scared of them. They are against America, they are against Israel, they are against the Jews.” —law professor Alan Dershowitz

“Nazi tattoos, jihadist chants, intimidation and attacks at synagogues, and other hateful anti-Jewish invective and actions are minimized, ignored, and even coddled. Acquiescence to Jew-hatred is now disturbingly common among activists, leaders and even many elected officials in the Democratic Party.” —Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice David Wecht on leaving the Democrat Party (“I know David and his legendary father, Cyril. As I’ve affirmed, I’m not changing my party — but I fully understand David’s personal choice. The Democratic Party must confront its own rising antisemitism problem.” —Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman)

Re: The Left

“That so many in America’s chattering classes claim to fear the onset of ‘fascism’ but consistently ignore or euphemize historical fascism’s vilest component is one of the saddest ironies of our age.” —Barton Swaim

“The ‘fascist’ label is the Left’s go-to attack because it’s the only attack they have left. They can’t defend their policies or win an argument on the merits, so they hurl emotionally loaded slurs. … It’s pathetic, and it reveals one of two things: they’re either completely ignorant of history, or they’re counting on you to be.” —Chloe Trapanotto

Belly Laugh of the Day

“Good News: Dems managed to spell Virginia correctly. Bad News: They sent their emergency application to SCOTUS to the wrong court. Baby steps.” —former Virginia AG Jason Miyares on Virginia Dems’ desperate attempts to save their gerrymander

Reality Check

“I went to a steakhouse but couldn’t afford to pay the bill, so I pressured everyone else in the restaurant to pay it for me. Then, I went on social media and boasted that I’d paid the tab. That’s what Zohran Mamdani is doing with his ‘I balanced the budget!’ routine.” —Ian Haworth

Cold, Hard Truth

“Young people now blame capitalism for poverty, racism, high prices, even climate change. … Yes, capitalism is often ugly. It brings out greed in some, exacerbates wealth differences, creates pollution (creating an actual need for government regulation, which capitalism funds) and leaves some people behind. But nothing else works! Nothing else makes life better for most people, including the poor!” —John Stossel

The Bottom Line

“The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran: they can’t have a nuclear weapon. I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.” —President Donald Trump

And Last…

“If you turned President Xi Jinping upside down and shook him, Mauritius would fall out of his pocket. We cannot let the UK hand over our shared military base on Diego Garcia to China’s BFF.” —Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA)
