Wednesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Cory Booker, Adam Schiff, Candace Owens, and more.

Insight: “The state represents violence in a concentrated and organized form. The individual has a soul, but as the state is a soulless machine, it can never be weaned from violence to which it owes its very existence.” —Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869-1948)

Friendly fire: “Today, I’m a little angry, I have to say, that we started with one of the most diverse fields in our history, giving people pride. And it’s a damn shame now that the only African-American woman in this race … is now no longer in it, and we’re spiraling towards a debate stage … that could have six people with no diversity whatsoever.” —Sen. Cory Booker

Bluster: “The evidence is overwhelming that [Trump] abused his office to leverage your taxpayer dollars to have a foreign government try to cheat an election.” —Rep. Eric Swalwell

Facts are stubborn things… “I think what we have produced in remarkable short order is so overwhelming that it ought to be presented to the Judiciary Committee now without any further delay. … There is, I think, grave risk to the country with waiting until we have every last fact when we already know enough about the president’s misconduct to make a responsible judgment.” —Rep. Adam Schiff

Race bait: “Anyone who supported this president is at best looking the other way on racism. At best.” —Pete Buttigieg

Tone deaf: “It’s f—ing upsetting that I can’t allow my son to listen to our President because our President is inappropriate, misogynistic and unpresidential. So unfair to parents.” —Alyssa Milano, who did not censor her own vulgar profanity

Hot air: “The fossil-fuel industry has damaged the whole globe, all of humanity, and nature.” —Jane Fonda

Alarmism: “Warmer temperatures wrought by climate change could put women at risk for giving birth early, according to new research.” —ABC News (So they’re trying to save babies now?)

And last… “Any black kid from the projects available to shout ‘how dare you’ about six times in front of the UN? Maybe then these virtue-signaling, good-for-nothing, leftist politicians and celebrities will jump to fix the neighborhoods that have been devastated by their policies.” —Candace Owens
