Monday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Gary Bauer, Ralph Northam, Raphael Warnock, and more.

Insight: “We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.” —Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968)

Good questions: “We’re being told that … Chinese spy [Fang Fang] was compromising Rep. Swalwell for nefarious purposes. At some point the FBI approached the congressman with disturbing information about her true identity. One would expect that the FBI would have arrested and charged Fang relatively quickly. But that’s not what happened. She fled the country. So inquiring minds want to know: Was she tipped off that the FBI was on to her? Was it Rep. Swalwell who tipped her off? Is that why he doesn’t say anything negative about her because he knows what she knows about him? Swalwell would have a really good reason for wanting her out of the country because a trial would expose him as well as her. We need a special prosecutor.” —Gary Bauer

Missing the point: “Is it the worship or the building? … You don’t have to sit in the church pew for God to hear your prayers.” —Virginia Governor Ralph Northam

Alpha jackass: “While others were sleeping, members of the United States Senate declared war, launched a vicious and evil attack on the most vulnerable people in America. Herod is on the loose. Herod is a cynical politician who’s willing to kill children and kill the children’s health program in order to preserve his own wealth and his own power. … The United States Senate decided by a slim majority to pick the pockets of the poor, the sick, the old, and the yet unborn in order to line the pockets of the ultra-rich. Don’t tell me about gangsters and thugs on the streets. There are more gangsters and thugs … in the Capitol.” —"Reverend" Raphael Warnock in 2017 regarding the GOP Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

Non compos mentis: “The coronavirus is the third-leading cause of death for black Americans. So the most vulnerable and marginalized communities, because of the comorbidities of structural racism, because of unequal access to healthcare, because of transportation deserts and food apartheid systems, have been the most vulnerable to contracting this virus and have the highest rates of fatality.” —Rep. Ayanna Pressley

And last… “It’s important to understand that the media didn’t make a mistake by failing to cover this [Hunter Biden] story. They intentionally failed to cover this story. They knew that the Hunter Biden drama would affect Joe Biden’s prospects of winning the election and they didn’t want him to lose and so they suppressed this in every way.” —Mollie Hemingway
