Friendly fire: “Earth to Democrats: Republicans are telling you something when they gleefully schedule votes on proposals like the Green New Deal, Medicare for all, and a 70 percent marginal tax rate. When they’re more eager to vote on the Democratic agenda than we are, we should take a step back and ask ourselves whether we’re inadvertently letting the political battle play out on their turf rather than our own. If Trump’s only hope for winning a second term turns on his ability to paint us as socialists, we shouldn’t play to type.” —Rahm Emanuel

If work is irredeemable, what does that make socialist handouts? “To me capitalism is irredeemable.” —Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Non Compos Mentis: “We should not be haunted by the specter of being automated out of work. We should be excited by that. But the reason we’re not excited by it is because we live in a society where if you don’t have a job, you are left to die. And that is, at its core, our problem.” —Ocasio-Cortez

Oh, that must be it: “I don’t think our colleague [Rep. Ilhan Omar] is anti-Semitic. I think she has a different experience in the use of words, doesn’t understand that some of them are fraught with meaning that she didn’t realize.” —Nancy Pelosi

Trafficking hate: “Absolutely not. … One is human the other is not.” —Ilhan Omar asked if Barack Obama and Donald Trump are the same (“Anti-Semites who dehumanize their opponents? Who could have predicted that?” —Ed Driscoll)

“I think Islamophobia is very much among the Democratic Party as well as the Republican Party. And I know that’s hard for people to hear, but there’s only been four members of Congress that are of Muslim faith. Three of them currently serve in this institution. More of us need to get elected, but more of us need to understand as we come into this institution that I have a lot of work to do with my colleagues.” —Rep. Rashida Tlaib

Dezinformatsiya: “I think the question should be, is Fox [News] state-run TV or is the White House state-run government by Fox TV? … The fact is [Fox anchors] work at a place that has done tremendous damage to this country.” —CNN President Jeff Zucker

The jack of all trades: “I’m trans. I’m a person of color. I’m an immigrant. I’m a lesbian. I’m a gay man. I’m the disabled. I’m everything.” —Alyssa Milano (You’re also a nut.)

The BIG Lie: “Women aren’t the only people who get pregnant or the only people who need to access abortion. The fight for reproductive freedom is a fight for ALL.” —NARAL

And last… “I remember a time when you could enjoy — or not enjoy — a movie based on its merits. Now we have to worry about the politics of casting, the social implications of the film and even the validity of the reviewing process. The joy is being sucked out of pretty much everything.” —Pat Sajak
