Insight: “It is not the function of the government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the government from falling into error.” —Justice Robert H. Jackson (1892-1954)

Nailed it: “I really felt how much @KamalaHarris values ‘great investigative journalism’ when her 11 armed CA DOJ agents were traipsing through my apartment, seizing my undercover footage but ignoring high-dollar invoices for fetal body parts.” —David Daleiden

For the record: “They’re trying to protect Biden. Everybody is.” —Donald Trump on the virtual debate rules

Race bait: “Hate groups heard the president’s words not as a rebuke but as a rallying cry, as a call to action.” —Governor Gretchen Whitmer

Having your cake and eating it too: “You’ll know my opinion of court packing when the election is over.” —Joe Biden (A trip down memory lane: “We have to pass the [ObamaCare] bill so that you can find out what is in it.” —Nancy Pelosi, March 2010)

Non compos mentis, Part I: “When you think about the very deliberate, concerted effort by one political party to basically try to own Christianity and it overlooks the role of the African American church, it overlooks … a lot of theology, a lot of history. It also overlooks this moment in time. You know, Black Lives Matter I view as, you know, very profoundly as a theological statement.” —Hillary Clinton

Missing the forest for the trees: “A lot of young people are leaving the church, in part because the way they understand what Christianity has become is, you know, so judgmental, so alienating that they think to themselves, ‘Well, I don’t need that. I don’t want to be part of that.’ So this should also be a time for the church to take a hard look at itself and try to figure out how it can be a real partner in this moment of moral awakening.” —Hillary Clinton (While there’s an element of truth to this, it’s unequivocally also true that many young people are leaving orthodox churches because they don’t like what the Bible has to say about repentance and living a moral life.)

And last… “If Trump is somehow responsible for the Whitmer terror attempt, then Bernie is responsible for the Congressional baseball shooting, and Obama is responsible for the Dallas police massacre. This is a stupid and dangerous game.” —Ben Shapiro
