“Apparently, the XX/XY chromosomes are insufficient because when we wake up in the morning, we exaggerate whatever feature we want to portray the gender of our choice. Either the one you’re assigned, the one you choose to be — whatever it is. … Suppose no matter my chromosomes today, I feel 80% female, 20% male. I’m gonna put on makeup. Tomorrow, I might feel 80% male. I’ll remove the makeup and I’ll wear a muscle shirt. Why do you care? What businesses is it of yours to require that I fulfill your inability to think of gender on a spectrum?” —astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson

“As you know by now, former President Donald Trump was indicted yet again … by Joe Biden’s Special Campaign Manager, I mean Special Counsel Jack Smith.” —Gary Bauer

Observations

“So many good policies Trump enacted came from people now backing others. At the end of his administration, he was surrounded by insane sycophants. A second Trump Administration would see the Island of Misfit Toys in charge, not the competent people who started with him.” —Erick Erickson

“Unless there are a few issues where you at least slightly disagree with your political party, then you are not in a political party, you are in a cult.” —Elon Musk
