Monday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Devin Nunes, Jeff Zucker, Nancy Pelosi, and more.

Insight: “My fellow Republicans, we are the change!” —Ronald Reagan

Upright: “The pandemic of ‘wiped’ phones among the Mueller team requires a criminal investigation of this destruction of evidence and potential obstruction of justice and other crimes. The DOJ and FBI hid these records for nearly two years — which only adds to appearance of a cover-up.” —Judicial Watch

Observations: “It’s an amazing coincidence that all these professional investigators kept accidentally wiping their phones. You’d think these people could come up with a more believable excuse for hiding evidence.” —Rep. Devin Nunes

For the record: “America’s colleges, media, and cultural institutions are being swept by the ideology of ‘anti-racism.’ It openly advocates racial discrimination against white people, and promotes bigoted, lower expectations for black people. ‘Rationality’ and ‘hard work’ are vestiges of racism, declared the ‘anti-racism’ web site of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture. It claimed that virtues like ‘hard work,’ ‘self-reliance,’ being ‘polite,’ and being on time are all a product of the ‘white dominant culture.’ So, too, are normal grammar, the scientific method, and its emphasis on ‘objective, rational linear thinking,’ according to a chart the Smithsonian posted.” —legal scholar Hans Bader

Hindsight is 20/20: “You’re missing the boat on how it works going forward. You cannot be elected president of the United States without CNN.” —CNN President Jeff Zucker to Donald Trump’s attorney ahead of the 2016 election

Dezinformatsiya: “The Creepy Conservative Obsession With Netflix's Cuties, Explained.” —Slate headline (So leftists put out a pedophilic movie and are “celebrating” it, but it’s conservatives that have the problem. Got it.)

Non compos mentis: “Jussie [Smollett] faces false charges of felony disorderly conduct and is still being forced to fight back against a relentless and vicious smear campaign initiated by the Chicago Police Department and uncritically disseminated by the media. We believe Jussie, not the CPD.” —an open letter of which Linda Sarsour is a signee

Braying jackass: “Good for [Trump] for having a distraction on a day when the numbers of people who are affected and the numbers of people who are dying from this virus only increases.” —Nancy Pelosi disparaging the president’s Middle East peace agreements

And last… “BLM is one of the most morally depraved political movements in American history. Rarely have we seen a group that is so cartoonishly evil with no redeeming qualities at all. They have no valid points. They should not be listened to or respected. They deserve scorn and only scorn.” —Matt Walsh
