The BIG Lies
“[ICE agents have] face masks on to … engage in abuses.” —Florida Democrat Senate candidate Alex Vindman

“ICE’s violent, out-of-control, and unhinged behavior are [sic] targeting people who are paying taxes, people who are homeowners, people who are raising families.” —Democrat House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries

“The more inhumane behavior, I think it’s fair to say, the greater the profit.” —Hakeem Jeffries

“The president’s allies launched a campaign to remove black elected officials from office.” —Georgia Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff

“[Joe Biden] retired from the presidency as having probably the lowest net worth of anyone that had ever entered the presidency.” —Hunter Biden

Projection
“The socialists, the authoritarians, the fascists, those with Nazi-like policies are MAGA. The anti-family, the pro-pedophilia, the pro-death are MAGA. The untethered spending, building up the national deficit, di**ing over the working class — those are MAGA policies. On top of this, MAGA is a warmongering, nut-job party.” —Jennifer Welch

Theater of the Absurd
“It didn’t matter that you voted for [Donald Trump]. You got the same thing that you were going to get if you voted for Kamala Harris.” —Tucker Carlson

Dumb & Dumber
“If any other country behaved the way that Israel behaved, we would treat them in a very different way — and we don’t. And I think we have to be really considerate about why.” —Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed

“There is a reason that Israel wanted Donald Trump to be president, and it’s because he’s weak, because he has no principle, because he doesn’t value human life, because he’s so easy to manipulate.” —Jennifer Welch

“If it’s antisemitic to point out that Bibi Netanyahu is evil incarnate, then you know what? I don’t know what to say to people anymore.” —Hunter Biden

Spin Doctor
“Hasan [Piker] was talking about the CIA concept of blowback. Blowback is the idea that we meddled in the Middle East, and that leads to attacks against us that we didn’t foresee coming. That’s what he meant by ‘America deserved 9/11.’” —Kyle Kulinski

Lack of Self-Awareness Award
“Literally, Republicans are very performative.” —Texas Democrat Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett

Re: The Left
“This is no longer the Democrat Party of JFK. Heck, this is not even the Democrat Party of Barack Obama. This is a party that has been totally captivated by these far-left, extreme liberals who support massively raising your taxes, who support abolishing your police, who support abolishing private prisons, who support … reopening our southern border and our nation’s borders to illegal alien criminals all over the world.” —White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

“Woke 1: Racism causes capitalism, imperialism, colonialism, and the Constitution (The 1619 Project). Woke 2: Capitalism causes racism, imperialism, colonialism, and the Constitution (Lenin).” —Ben Shapiro

“Too many progressives believe racial equality is best achieved by demolishing standards for everyone.” —Daniel McCarthy

“Woke progressives and Islamists both think the other are their ‘useful idiots’ to eventually get what they want. The Islamists are correct.” —Nick Freitas

And Last…
“We can respect every human being without pretending biology has disappeared. Women fought too long and sacrificed too much for their own place in competitive athletics for society to suddenly become embarrassed by the word ‘women.’” —Armstrong Williams
