Observations: “The more Mueller searches for hypothetical lawbreaking, the more he is inadvertently underscoring that actual lawbreakers must be subject to the same standard of justice. Ironically, Mueller’s investigation has reminded America that it is past time to call Comey, McCabe, and a host of Obama-era DOJ and FBI officials to account. For over a year, we have had two standards of legality when there can only be one. A reckoning is near.” —Victor Davis Hanson

Please hold while we process your request… “Please resign so that I won’t have to keep up this fight of your having to be impeached, because I don’t think you deserve to be there. Just get out!” —Rep. Maxine Waters to Donald Trump

Hypocrite: “With the Republicans, I’m not mad, I’m just terribly disappointed in what they’ve done to the institution. I believe the federal government has been so harmed — the legislative branch has been decimated, judicial decimated, checks and balances sliding out the door.” —former Senate leader Harry Reid

Braying Jackass: “There are a number of really fine journalists at Fox News who are doing an outstanding job, but the prime-time shows and the ones that really have the big audience — it’s almost like a state propaganda organ.” —Al Gore

Belly laugh of the week: “I think [James Comey is] clearly a pillar of integrity. I think he’s a truth-teller. I think whatever flaws have been manifested — and he, himself, has written about some of them — will be for history to judge.” —Al Gore

And last… “Without the 90-plus percent black vote, the Democratic Party, at the national level, is in deep trouble. This explains why they race-bait. Constantly.” —Larry Elder
