Tuesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Nate Jackson, AOC, Roger Helle, and more.

Observations

“The ideology pushing gender confusion has become a cult. … Without this ground-level recruitment, the gender cult would die out. Because the grooming is working, however, a political party sees a lot of gain to be had, marketing campaigns are raking in big bucks, and the cult grows exponentially. The alarming truth is that the Rainbow Mafia and members of the gender cult don’t really care about children or other gender-dysphoric individuals. These unfortunate people are just a means to the cultists’ twisted ends.” —Nate Jackson

“When Harry Reid blew up the judicial filibuster, it was to preserve the republic. When Republicans use that very precedent for themselves, they are power-hungry partisans. When Democrats throw congressmen off subcommittees, they do it for democracy. When Republicans follow suit, they are bigots. When a Republican governor retaliates against Disney for involving itself in educational issues, it’s 1933 all over again. But when a Democrat governor punishes companies like Walgreens for their stand on abortion drugs, it is a blow against injustice.” —David Harsanyi

“Lock Donald Trump up, or don’t lock him up, but don’t tell me that ‘no one is above the law.’ It’s one of the most ludicrous fantasies peddled by the left.” —David Harsanyi

Non Compos Mentis

“I admit it is very difficult to see a path in the Republican Party that refuses to hold itself accountable and, in fact, breaches the law itself. For all of their talk of a crime wave … the crime wave is within the Republican Party.” —Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Upright

“Americans on the Right are desperately worried about the future of their country and want a political savior to save it. But so many of them are working so hard to save their country that they risk their souls. Americans on the Left are so desperate to be their own gods that they’ve turned secularism into its own religion with its own priests, prophets, kings, liturgies and sacraments, and this religion will allow no competing religions in the public square. But Christ is Truth. Truth came out of the grave. Truth cannot be killed. It will pierce the hearts of those grown cold and make them warm and it will crush lies. Truth wins in the end and all our idols will turn to dust.” —Erick Erickson

“Scripture tells us we’re to walk by faith, not by sight. While I believe the spiritual warfare we’re experiencing in America today is the most intense in my lifetime, Jesus is still sitting on the throne. Our hope has never been in Washington; it has always been in Heaven. Don’t give up! Because of Calvary.” —Roger Helle
