Thursday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Mollie Hemingway, Chuck Schumer, John Roberts, and more.

For the record I: “We had years where people were saying a couple hundred thousand dollars in barely literate Facebook ads from Russians caused Donald Trump to win. Here you had a guy spend nearly $1 billion and he went nowhere. It’s a humiliating defeat for Michael Bloomberg.” —The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway

For the record II: “So Russia influenced the election with $200,000, $300,000 in Facebook ads — and Mike Bloomberg couldn’t get more than 50 delegates with $600 million dollars?” —Fox News’s Bret Baier

Chris Matthews, call your old office: “Bernie Sanders is going to fight. He’s got unlimited resources effectively, he’s going to fight for the next three months. Nothing is going to stop this from being a kind of Bataan Death March over the course of the next three months, with each of these candidates going at each other hammer and tongs. That is not avoidable I think.” —MSNBC analyst John Heilemann (Matthews was just ousted after similar remarks about Sanders.)

Alpha jackass: “I want to tell you, Neil Gorusch, and you, Brett Kavanaugh, you have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you, if you go forward with these awful [anti-abortion] decisions.” —Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (“Justices know that criticism comes with the territory, but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous.” —Chief Justice John Roberts)

Friendly fire: “Having watched the Schumer clip a few times, it really was out of line! Not just for norms reasons (though I think those matter) but also because idle threats are dumb and expose impotence.” —MSNBC’s Chris Hayes

And last… “Chuck Schumer violated US law by making threatening statements on the grounds of the Supreme Court. He’s not above the law. He’s not special. I don’t want to hear verbal condemnations from Republicans. Arrest him and hold him accountable. The law is the law.” —Matt Walsh
