Dumb & Dumber

“I know there are millions of Americans … who feel disappointed and discouraged, or even a little bit angry, about the Court’s decision today on student debt. … I didn’t give any false hope. … But the Republicans snatched away the hope … they were given.” —Joe Biden

“I disagree with today’s decision from the Supreme Court. Today, the Court substituted itself for Congress. It’s outrageous to me that Republicans in Congress and state offices fought so hard against a program that would have helped millions of their own constituents.” —Education Secretary Miguel Cardona

“I think it’s very revealing that there’s no evidence that this web designer [Lorie Smith] was ever even approached by anyone asking for a website for a same-sex wedding. Matter of fact, it appears this web designer only went into the wedding business for the purpose of provoking a case like this [303 Creative v. Elenis].” —Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg

“We have justices saying that the Supreme Court is going themselves much too far. They are expanding their role into acting as though they are Congress itself. And that, I believe, is an expansion of power that we really must be focusing on. … There also must be impeachment on the table.” —Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)

For the Record

“If Hillary Clinton had won in 2016, the Supreme Court would have mandated the covid shot for all employees, allowed Joe Biden to unilaterally end student loan debt, forced a woman to make websites for gay people, kept affirmative action the law of the land and Roe v Wade would still exist too. Staggering to even think about, honestly.” —Clay Travis

Village Idiots

“He [Clarence Thomas] is such a mutilated version of a black justice."—The Nation legal correspondent Elie Mystal

"The GOP is trying to recruit Muslim Americans, a community that makes up less than 2% of the U.S. population, against another tiny marginalized group of Americans, transgender people.” —MSNBC’s Jen Psaki

“Our country is trash in so many ways and instead of using our resources to make it better we continue to oppress Marginalized groups that we have targeted since the beginning of times.” —WNBA’s Natasha Cloud

“Ah, the Fourth of July. Who doesn’t love a good parade, some tasty barbecue, and a stirring fireworks display? The only problem with all that, though, is that it can distract from an essential truth about this nation’s birth: The US was founded on stolen Indigenous land.” —Ben & Jerry’s

“The Declaration of Independence was written by enslavers and didn’t recognize Black people as human. Today is a great day to demand Reparations Now.” —Congresswoman Cori Bush (D-MO)

Upright

“As a black man born to a woman living at the poverty line, I’m so thankful my mama chose life. Today, we thank God Almighty for the Dobbs decision.” —Senator Tim Scott (R-SC)

“I’m living proof that America is the land of opportunity. Made in America. That’s my story. To the radical Left that says we’re an evil declining country, I say the truth of my life disproves your lies. I have faith in America & our president should too.” —Tim Scott

“If you are able-bodied, you work. If you take out a loan, you pay it back. If you commit a violent crime, you go to jail. If you’re a man, you should play sports against men. These aren’t just conservative values, they are American values.” —Tim Scott

And Last…

“The road to hell is paved with Ivy League degrees.” —Thomas Sowell
