Monday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from James Freeman, Tulsi Gabbard, Michelle Obama, and more.

Re: leftist logic: “Sixty-seven years after he moved out of Scranton, Pa., and 47 years after he began working in Washington, D.C., Joe Biden seems to have trouble remembering that there’s an economy outside of political subsidy programs. In a … ‘town hall’ on CNN, the former vice president was asked several times in different ways about encouraging job creation and economic growth. Each time his answer involved federal schemes to redistribute wealth.” —James Freeman

A blind squirrel finds a nut: “Banning ballot harvesting is not a partisan issue. It’s been used & abused in states like North Carolina and California & is ripe for fraud.” —Rep. Tulsi Gabbard

For the record: “I would go forward with the confirmation process as chairman. Even a few months before [a] presidential election. … Just as the Constitution requires.” —Joe Biden in 2016

Yikes: “If Donald Trump has his way, the complications from COVID-19, which are well beyond what they should be, it’s estimated that 200 million people have died probably by the time I finish this talk.” —Joe Biden

The BIG Lie: “If the president had done his job, had done his job from the beginning, all the people would still be alive. All the people — I’m not making this up. Just look at the data. Look at the data.” —Joe Biden

Judicial benchmarks: “Let me be clear: If Leader McConnell and Senate Republicans move forward with this, then nothing is off the table for next year. Nothing is off the table.” —Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer

Thanks, Caption Obvious: “I think, overall, we can likely push Vice President Biden in a more progressive direction across policy issues.” —leftist puppeteer Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Braying jenny: “When we were in the White House, we could’ve never gotten away with some of the stuff that’s going on now. Not because of the public, but our community wouldn’t have accepted that.” —Michelle Obama

Race bait: “When you’re born in this country, we all drink the poison that is white supremacy. Social justice is not just a literacy; it’s a lifestyle.” —Lady Gaga

Straight from the horse’s mouth, Part I: “We’re shutting this country down if Trump and McConnell try to ram through an appointment before the election.” —playwright and screenwriter Beau Willimon

Straight from the horse’s mouth, Part II: “If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire f—ing thing down.” —professor and producer Reza Aslan

And last… “The fascist left regularly typifies the very qualities it professes to abhor. The only thing more pronounced than its totalitarianism is its stunning lack of self-awareness.” —David Limbaugh
