Re: “‘Big Guy’ Biden’s Family ChiCom Bucks Bonanza

“The repair shop owner who made a copy of the Hunter Biden laptop hard drive before turning the device over to the FBI should get a medal. Without his release of the contents of that hard drive, the FBI would have ‘lost’ the laptop and the whole thing would have been swept under the rug. Indeed, the FBI employee in the IT cybersecurity division has testified that he has no idea where the laptop is located. He also declined to offer advice on what person in the FBI might know where it is. That repair shop owner is a hero! He knew what the government would do!” —Alabama

Re: “Ketanji Brown Jackson Stumbles

“Biden’s SCOTUS nominee is clearly a Democrat partisan hack who intends to read every leftist tyranny into the white space of the Constitution. Her answers to tough questions were evasive and sometimes outright lies. Just one example was her disingenuous defense of Guantanamo’s terrorist inmates. She claimed they are entitled to defense counsel as if they were criminal defendants, knowing they weren’t charged under criminal statutes but rather were being held as foreign combatants under rules of war. Her claims of being a constitutionalist are ludicrous.” —Illinois

Re: “Free The Babylon Bee!

“I often hear people having been censored say they want to stay on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. for the purpose of being able to convey their views in hopes some on the Left will be brought to their senses. As long as this censorship goes on, good luck. I say, like The Babylon Bee, so be it. Move on. If enough people do this it WILL harm these leftist social media platforms. We ARE the majority and need to use that strength. I’m in agreement with Kyle Mann — if you don’t like what ANY business is doing, don’t do business with them. We still have this ability, but if we don’t stand up, our choices will evaporate. I am no fan of Section 230, but if we stand up, it won’t be much of an issue.” —Texas

“Kudos to The Babylon Bee’s officers for standing up to the blatant prejudice and hypocrisy of the Twitter twits and others such as USA Today who strive to establish their own alternative reality. All who value real truth must stand up to the truth deniers and their agenda to fundamentally transform our nation with their cancel culture actions. The future of our nation depends upon rejecting the ‘woke’ element and their false and malicious belief system.” —Florida

Re: “Disney’s Deep Disgrace

“Chapek wants to speak to ‘the pain’ of a community, yet his argument fails. In the study of logic we recognize this quickly as an emotional plea. He has shifted the conversation from the content being discussed to how someone feels about the content being discussed. Going this route shifts us from the use of logic to the distribution of pacifiers.” —Tennessee

“Disney’s most recent political posturing (and pontificating) are eliciting about the same level of compassion and empathy for their espoused causes as Hannibal Lecter pointing a gun to his head while standing over a pile of his dead recent ‘main courses’ and shouting, ‘Don’t come any closer or I’ll shoot!’ The collective viewer response is a disinterested yawn followed by clicking the remote to change the channel. I worked at Disneyland in the early 1970s. Things now are looking more like a thing birthed in a bizarre evil-twin universe.” —Virginia

Re: “The Southern Baptist Convention Pushes Back

“Indeed! The world is watching, but far too many are following the father of lies to destruction. We prohibit and/or dismiss our Creator from public discourse but expect unalienable rights endowed by our Creator. Worse, we are shocked when government abuses the authority we forfeited to it. 
'Seek first His … righteousness’ (Matt 6:33). Wise men still seek Him.” —Missouri

Re: “Wednesday Short Cuts

“Does anyone else find it ironic that the so-called ‘party of free speech’ is trying to ban students and teachers from discussing sexual orientation, gender identity, or America’s history of racism?” —former Labor Secretary Robert Reich

“Does anyone else find it ironic that the discussions Reich identifies as ‘free speech’ are those most likely to face the brunt of cancel culture, the shouting down of opposing speech, and the removal of opposing voices? That this is occurring on the campuses of ‘higher learning’ is the epitome of irony!” —Maryland

Re: “In Brief: Why Not Trump in 2024?

“I thought Trump was a great president. He kept his promises and moved us in the right direction in a number of areas, from the Supreme Court to energy production to strengthening the military. However, when he discouraged Georgians from voting in the Senate election, that was really stupid, and it led to the mess we have now in the Senate. And it also led to a lot of good work that Trump did getting undone by the next administration. He’s never expressed any regrets for that and it’s hard to forgive him for it.” —New York
