Friendly fire: “Remember that time when Susan Sarandon said she wouldn’t vote for Hillary Clinton and all hell broke loose in liberal land? … [H]ere’s the thing: If liberals weren’t too busy tweeting abuse at Sarandon and writing think pieces about her white privilege, they might just be able to see that she makes some salient points about the American political system, the media and the Trump presidency. … We’ll never know if Sanders could have beaten Trump, but we do know that Clinton could not.” —Salon’s Danielle Ryan

Non Compos Mentis, part I: “The American people and members have a right to know the full impact of this [health care] legislation before any vote in Committee or before the whole House.” —Nancy “We Have to Pass It to Find Out What’s In It” Pelosi

Non Compos Mentis, part II: “Word of advice to the White House: stick to reality. Health care is a big deal and we can’t afford any #alternativefacts. The truth? ACA resulted from one of the most transparent drafting processes in recent memory.” —Nancy Pelosi

Belly laugh of the week: “There is a real danger, I believe, that the Justice Department could become politicized.” —Dianne Feinstein (Yes, let’s never forget the exemplary precedents set forth by Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch.)

And you’re still wrong: “Trump’s Muslim Ban is still a Muslim Ban.” —Rep. Keith Ellison

Alpha Jackass: “The driving force behind this Muslim ban are the Islamophobes and the white supremacists employed by the Trump administration.” —CAIR national executive director Nihad Awad

And last… “We’re not in the ‘Mad Men’ era anymore, and it’s time to stop pretending we are. Instead of throwing a temper tantrum, er, striking, women who want to change the status quo further likely would be more effective — not to mention more considerate of women and men who need services like schools during the week — by focusing on specific problems at specific companies. Such women also could encourage other women to become their own best advocates.” —Katrina Trinko
