Tuesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Nicolle Wallace, Mark Kelly, Bill Maher, David Harsanyi, Stephen Miller, Tate Reeves, Ron DeSantis, Karoline Leavitt, and more.

Dezinformatsiya

“Donald Trump has … literally muzzled half of the media organizations. … [Barack Obama] had no scandals … did not attack our allies … did not start wars.” —MS NOW’s Nicolle Wallace

The Slow Bus

“I think it’s also fair to say [Joe Biden] created a crisis at the southern border. … The Biden administration did a bad job at the border.” —Arizona Senator Mark Kelly catching up to the American people four years too late

Friendly Fire

“There is a woke mind virus, and I think we’ve found patient zero. Her name is Darializa Avila Chevalier.” —Bill Maher

Re: The Left

“There has always been radicalism on the American Left. But Democrats didn’t invite Black Panthers or Weather Underground into their party in the 1970s. In the 2020s, though, Democrats invited communists into their tent. Now the communists are taking over. ” —David Harsanyi

“The Democrat Party has embraced socialism/Marxism and Islamism — two of the most murderous philosophies in the history of the world.” —Gary Bauer

For the Record

“The TPS designation for Somalis has been in effect since 1991, or for 35 years. Roughly 130 million Americans are younger than 35, meaning that what is supposedly a temporary status has existed for the entire lives of nearly 40 percent of the country. … Obviously, TPS has become an enormous loophole in immigration law.” —Rich Lowry

“This may shock the media to hear but for 99.999% of its history there was not a Haitian TPS diaspora in Springfield, Ohio. The Democrats illegally airlifted the Haitian migrants to Springfield in the months before President Trump took office.” —White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller (“And every single illegal was receiving more benefits than our Veterans.” —Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett)

Upright

“While I disagree with Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett joining the three liberal justices to form the 5-4 majority in [yesterday’s] SCOTUS ruling, we’re not going to try to delegitimize the Court, dox the justices or show up at their homes, picket in the streets, or make ridiculous calls to pack the Court in the future. … Yes, I strongly disagree with the Court’s opinion — but I still respect the institution and the individuals who serve on it.” —Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves regarding Watson v. Republican National Committee

Observations

“If there is no election day we have no democracy.” —Tim Pool

“Illegal aliens should not be able to anchor themselves to our country simply because they crossed the border and gave birth.” —Texas Congressman Brandon Gill

“Ivy League universities are hedge funds with indoctrination camps as a side hustle.” —Florida Governor Ron DeSantis

And Last…

“Becoming a mother changes your perspective on everything … and you realize how blessed we are to live in this country, to bring up babies in a nation where they can be whatever they want to be. … And I look forward to raising them in this wonderful country.” —White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
