Friday Short Cuts

Insight: “For liberalism, the individual is the end, and society the means. For fascism, society is the end, individuals the means, and its whole life consists in using individuals as instruments for its social ends.” —Alfredo Rocco (1875-1925)

Dezinformatsia: “Today the story isn’t the election, it’s Prince. The passing of Prince. Does this freeze the race a little bit, and maybe benefit Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump coming off of big wins?” —CNN’s Jon Berman

A vote for Trump is a vote for… “There have been very few complaints the way it is. [Transgender individuals] go, they use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate. There has been so little trouble. And the problem with what happened in North Carolina is the strife, and the economic punishment that they’re taking.” —Donald Trump, who apparently is not all that opposed to political correctness

Tax and spend: “I do — including myself. I do.” —Donald Trump when asked, “Do you believe in raising taxes on the wealthy?”

Demo-gogues: “We should understand that when we are encountering these children at the border, these children are just like our children, with the same hopes. They have the same dreams. They have the same wishes, and we should understand that and treat them with compassion.” —Rep. Eliot Engel

Non Compos Mentis: “For too long, our national parks have ignored important parts of our nation’s story. … Right now, there’s not one national park or national monument focused on the struggle for LGBT rights.” —Interior Secretary Sally Jewell

Village Idiots: “America has portrayed holding a Koran in such a different way to what it actually is. We all believe in something and at the end of the day it all ties to a god or a spiritual adviser. … It’s good to be open-minded.” —Lindsay Lohan

And last… “Today is Earth Day! Tomorrow, at those same event locations, will be Massive Trash Pick-up Day.” —Twitter satirist @weknowhwatsbest
