Monday Short Cuts

“I do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do. I do believe in a fate that will fall on us if we do nothing.”

The Gipper: “We are too great a nation to limit ourselves to small dreams. We are not, as some would have us believe, doomed to an inevitable decline. I do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do. I do believe in a fate that will fall on us if we do nothing.”

Braying Jenny: “The blue wave is African-American. It is white. It is Latino. It is Asian-Pacific Islander. It is made up of those who’ve been told that they are not worthy of being here. It is comprised of those who are documented and undocumented.” —Georgia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams

The BIG Lie: “The census is supposed to get a full and accurate count of the U.S. population. By weaponizing the census, this Administration is violating the idea that everyone counts.” —Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) on a question asking about respondents’ citizenship

Hot air: “Climate change is real, it is being driven by human activity, it is happening right now. These are facts; they are not in dispute. Our scientists know it, our businesses know it, the world knows it, and the American people know it. But, too many senators on the other side of the aisle just put their head in the sand. … If we would do more on climate change, we’d have fewer of these hurricanes and other types of storms. Everyone knows that, except a few.” —Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY)

Civility: “There are babies being ripped away from their parents at the southern border in the name of the American people. Make no mistake, this is part of an evil plot by the Trump administration, and it has to stop.” —Rep. Donald Payne Jr. (D-NJ)

Non Compos Mentis: “[Donald Trump] is just trashing American values the way he talks about people, the way he makes fun of people, the way he denigrates folks. I got to tell you, I think there is a method to his madness because he wants you to get down in the mosh pit with him.” —Joe Biden, just days after Democrats’ brutal character assassination of Brett Kavanagh

Dezinformatziya: “President Trump says ‘Robert E. Lee was a great general’ during Ohio rally, calling the Confederate leader ‘incredible.’” —NBC News, which TWO DAYS LATER issued a correction: “An earlier tweet misidentified the general President Trump described as ‘incredible’ at a rally in Ohio. It was Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, not Gen. Robert E. Lee.”

And last… “If the Left will accept [Sen. Elizabeth] Warren as ‘Native American’ because she might have had one Native American in her family tree sometime between 180 and 300 years ago, then they have embraced the end of identity politics. By that measure almost everyone in America is a minority.” —Matt Walsh
