Tuesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Nate Jackson, Brian Kemp, Kirsten Gillibrand, and more.

The Bottom Line

“Win, lose, or draw, the woke Left isn’t going away. It must be sent away by one powerful American business after another after another. And the only way to put that measure of steel in the spine of corporate America is for consumers to start flexing their muscles and to start speaking the language of sales.” —Douglas Andrews

“The vast majority of Americans want strong border security to go along with a safe system that facilities a reasonable number of legal immigrants. Most Americans sympathize with the Dreamers and want a path to citizenship for them. Most Americans want to welcome those genuinely fleeing persecution. We Americans know what a great country we have, and we’re not stingy or unwelcoming. But we do want law and order, and we want our elected representatives to, you know, represent us.” —Nate Jackson

Political Futures

“We have to tell people, number one, what we’re for; number two, that we’re going to be focused on the future and what we’re going to do for the voters in our state or the American people; and then, number three, we have to do a simple thing. We have to win.” —Georgia Governor Brian Kemp

For the Record

“Why is the race industry blooming? Because it is a lucrative business based on the lie that the United States is the most racist place to live; a lie that has convinced people that more murdered blacks are killed by whites, that unarmed blacks are killed all the time by police, and that straight white men are the worst of oppressors. The reality is far from that. Hatred in a human heart has all skin colors, and that is really what is at the root of racism. This lie is one of the greatest modern facilitators of injustice in this country, and the only way to fight against it is to keep telling the truth to anyone who will listen.” —Emmy Griffin

Demagogue

“When you take away 50% of America’s right to privacy, say women don’t have it during the reproductive years, it is such an overstretch and an outrageous statement.” —Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)

Upright

“I’m not speaking up for myself…I’m done playing sports. I’m not fighting for me. I’m actually supposed to be in dental school this year. But I’ve changed my life plans because I see what’s at stake if someone doesn’t fight for the present and next generation.” —former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines
