The BIG Lies

“Have they pointed to anything to suggest that Joe Biden engaged in corrupt behavior? No!” —Congressman Jim Himes (D-CT)

“They have found no evidence whatsoever that there are impeachable crimes.” —Jim Himes

“You can’t even say slavery was bad now in the Republican Party. That’s how far it’s gone.” —MSNBC’s Joy Reid

Grand Delusions

“We have more work to do, which we are doing, which is to inform people about what we have achieved.” —Kamala Harris

Political Futures

“Democrats act as if Biden is a once-in-a-generation political talent when he’s an 80-year-old man whose foremost political achievement is beating an unpopular incumbent in the midst of a pandemic with a basement campaign.” —Rich Lowry

“As the 2016 election demonstrated, running two candidates who are deeply unpopular is a recipe for volatility. And Trump-Biden would make Trump-Hillary look like the halcyon days of widely admired, consensus political leaders. … One of Clinton’s serious vulnerabilities, the email scandal, was ruled off-limits, just as Biden’s age and his family’s influence-peddling scandal are verboten topics among Democrats now. How did that turn out?” —Rich Lowry

“Who is to blame for the corrosive nature of today’s politics? Some blame the media. Others fault politicians, who often appear more interested in perpetuating their careers and fundraising than promoting the general welfare. The real blame lies with voters. … When did character cease to matter in our political leadership? The answer is when it stopped mattering to a substantial number of voters.” —Cal Thomas

Re: The Left

“Attendance at this year’s [Boy Scouts] jamboree is less than half of what it was at the last national jamboree in 2017. The organization is a shell of its former self. Its membership numbers plummeted as the left destroyed the group, which once encouraged boys and young men to be ‘morally straight.’ For years, it was bedeviled by sexual abuse cases involving homosexual scoutmasters. A massive settlement drove the Boy Scouts into bankruptcy. Now, it’s completely caved to the left by accepting girls and transgendered scouts.” —Gary Bauer

A Broken Clock Is Right Twice a Day

“Sex really is binary. There’s no question about it. You’re either male or female. And it’s absolutely clear.” —evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins
