For the Record

“The bank records show the Biden family, their associates, and their companies received over $10 million from foreign nationals and their companies.” —House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY)

“President Biden has claimed since the 2020 election that his family has not received money from China. That was a lie in 2020 — and he continues to lie to the American people now.” —James Comer

“So the department of justice arrested George Santos for relatively minor campaign finance violations on the same day Republicans in the house detailed millions of dollars in illegal payments from China & Ukraine to the Biden crime family. Probably a total timing coincidence.” —Clay Travis

“They’re deliberately charging Santos in the middle of the House GOP conference detailing the Biden family’s corruption to make clear to you that they are in charge and that they will arrest (or run interference) for anyone they want, and there’s nothing you can do about it.” —Sean Davis

Insight

“Among the several cloudy appellatives which have been commonly employed as cloaks for misgovernment, there is none more conspicuous in this atmosphere of illusion than the word ‘Order.’” —English jurist Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832)

The BIG Lies

“[Mike Pence] did something wrong. He should’ve put the [2020 election] votes back to the state legislatures and I think we would’ve had a different outcome.” —Donald Trump

“We have seen the effectiveness of our [immigration] approach.” —DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas

“We are making it very clear that our border is not open, that crossing irregularly is against the law.” —Alejandro Mayorkas

Non Compos Mentis

“Those folk who are coming across [the border] are the ones who are helping to put food on our table. Without them, we’re not able to eat. If you turned them away — if all of them were turned away, and then this legislation passed making it easier to get at people who are already here legally, and you had no immigration, then we would have no food on our plates. We would have nobody taking care of the building, the construction of our homes. We would have nobody cleaning up in the hospitals.” —Congressman Hank Johnson (D-GA)

Other Notables

“The median age of the nation’s white population is 43.7; of Blacks, 34.6; and Hispanics, 29.7. The growing debt burden over time will fall disproportionately on these younger black and Hispanic Americans. A legacy of massive debt, bloated government, sclerotic economic growth, and life on an ever-expanding government plantation is the future Biden is laying out for the minority Americans he allegedly cares about.” —Star Parker

“A person who ‘chooses’ street living, instead of shelter or hospitalization, is exposed to hypothermia, disease and crime. On average, a homeless person survives only to age 48, losing 30 years of a normal lifespan. It’s worse for women. Allowing that choice is neither compassionate to the homeless nor fair to the rest of society. … It dooms the homeless to short, brutal lives, and the rest of us to filth, crime and chaos.” —Betsy McCaughey
