Tuesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from David Harsanyi, Erick Erickson, Kyle Mann, and more.

Non Compos Mentis

“Man allegedly shot and killed his pregnant boyfriend and then himself in murder-suicide.” —Law & Crime headline

For the Record

“Sure, it’s fun to talk about salacious parts of the Hunter case, but the far bigger concern should be finding out why companies operating in authoritarian nations sent the Bidens $17 million. It would be a fair question even if there had been no criminal investigation. Now, I’m not saying the feds were covering up proof of Joe Biden’s illegality — though circumstantial evidence and common sense say the family business couldn’t function without his participation. I’m saying it’s increasingly clear the Justice Department didn’t want to find out if there was any evidence. No one wanted a replay of the Hillary illegal server scandal. And that’s how Hunter got his sweet deal.” —David Harsanyi

“Attorney General Merrick Garland owes the country an explanation for why the Biden investigation has been sabotaged from within, even as he maintains publicly that it was conducted with independence and integrity. … Garland knew there could be no more profound conflict of interest than a Biden Justice Department investigation of a corruption scheme involving the first family. The scandal is that, instead of doing his duty, the attorney general manacled his own Justice Department’s investigation.” —National Review

Turnabout Is Fair Play

“When oil spills kill birds, the feds come after them. The GOP needs to turn the tables and go after windmill farms for kill birds using the same standards the gov’t uses against oil fields.” —Erick Erickson

Belly Laugh

“Buying the rights to the letter X was genius, as Musk will now receive royalties every time libs say latinx or womxn.” —Kyle Mann
