“I just want to debate this guy, but you know – and I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way. No, I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union. He was high as a kite. We’re going to demand a drug test.”
Donald Trump demanded on Friday that Joe Biden be drug tested ahead of thetwo debates both candidates have agreed to participate in

“Biden is not so much an octogenarian as an unhealthy and prematurely aging 80-year-old. It is America’s irony that he is fit for almost no other job in the country other than the presidency, which apparently allows for a three-day-a-week ceremonial role while others in the shadows run the country.”
Victor Davis Hanson

“We have one candidate whose doctors don’t want him walking, and one whose lawyers don’t want him talking.”
Dan McLaughlin

“One witness is a woman who has sex for money and has almost as many different stories as erotic partners. Another witness is a convicted perjurer. Both have publicly announced that they’ll do anything they can to harm the guy they are testifying against. It won’t matter – the fix is in, and the jury is all Democrat.

“Trump will be a convicted felon – it’s almost certain because they’ve managed to pick a jury that’s going to convict Trump of anything put in front of it by selecting the jury from 87% Democrat Manhattan.

“Some appellate court will eventually toss this nonsense out. Trump’s poll numbers may even go up after he’s convicted.

“Donald Trump’s imminent conviction is not going to change anything. The polls may flutter for a moment, but Trump will come back stronger than ever. “
Blogger/Columnist Kurt Schlichter

“The Biden administration stood with Israel until late February of 2024, when too many Michigan primary voters voted ‘uncommitted’ in the Democrat primary. Biden began to shift after that, convinced he could lose in November if he did not have the votes of Jew hating Democrats in swing states like Michigan.”
Erick Erickson

“Not even former President Barack Obama, who had been chummy with black supremacists and other antisemites for decades before reaching the White House, cut off aid to Israel. Democrats continue to lurch toward the hard left.”
David Harsanyi

“Like [Chuck] Schumer and many others in power, [Bernie] Sanders is Jewish when it suits his purposes, but first and foremost, he’s loyal to the Marxist wing of the Democrat Party that’s vehemently anti-Israel.”
Brian Mark Weber

“You can count on Joe Biden when the chips are up, but certainly not when they are down. You want to be in a foxhole with Biden only if you are certain that the members of ‘the squad,’ the left-wing faction in the House, approve of his being there. Joe Biden has your back — from a comfortable distance, just in case political circumstances change. The president is a weather vane for the left. That doesn’t mean that Biden himself is a committed progressive or in the ideological vanguard. He’s not. A weather vane doesn’t affect how fast the wind is blowing or in what direction; it just shifts in reaction to larger forces.”
Rich Lowry

“I’m in favor of the Second Amendment. And I believe we need an assault weapons ban. We need universal background checks. We need red-flag laws.”
Kamala Harris

“Today, [illegals] are coming in, aided by cartels to whom they pay huge amounts of money. And they’re not running away from law enforcement. They’re running towards law enforcement because they have figured out that all they have to do is say the magic words, ‘I have a credible fear of persecution,’ and bingo, you’re in the country legally. You get two court hearings. They could take seven years. Meanwhile, you slip into the shadows of the economy. So the whole system is broken. And Biden needs to confront that.”
CNN’s Fareed Zakaria

“People have been screaming about the border for all three and a half years Joe Biden has been president. He’s not done anything to solve the problem of the border. That’s a huge issue for President Trump, I can’t understand why President Biden didn’t tackle this from the beginning. If I were President Biden, I’d be all over that, and instead he served it to President Trump on a silver platter.” The issue of border security and illegal immigration “was not a problem when President Trump was president.”
Mitt Romney

OUTRAGE OF THE WEEK

Workers are cheating on drug tests at the highest rate in more than 30 years, according to one of the U.S.’s largest drug-testing labs. The increase in tampered tests came from samples collected in 2023, a year also marked by rising marijuana positive tests from employees and job candidates in traditional office settings, according to Quest Diagnostics.

Workforce positive drug screens were particularly high last year for jobs associated with office work, Quest said. Marijuana positivity was up last year in 13 out of 15 industries, led by finance and insurance, which increased more than 35%. Public Administration positive tests rose by nearly 24% and real-estate rental and leasing jobs that screened positive were up more than 22%. Positive marijuana screens were also higher in the education sector, as well as professional, scientific and technical services.

The percentage of urine samples that came back positive for drugs among the U.S. workforce remained steady at a two-decade high for the third year in a row. But the substantial rise of tampering, as well as the patchwork of new marijuana laws across the U.S., have intensified challenges for employers seeking to keep drugs out of the workplace.

“The House has no choice but to impeach Biden based on the Trump-Ukraine precedent of withholding foreign aid to help with reelection. Only with Biden, it’s true.”
Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR)

“Without a doubt, college professors are the most dangerous people in America. They’re not dangerous because they challenge the status quo or encourage their students to think critically. On the contrary, they are dangerous because they encourage impressionable young college students to adhere to the doctrines of the professors they choose without giving them the chance to meaningfully challenge those doctrines.” Armstrong Williams

“Well-educated people are often the least intelligent. They are so confident in their ability to think critically that they have successfully convinced themselves that they can do no wrong. It is only when students have an honest professor who understands their fallibility that they can truly learn.”
Armstrong Williams

“Right now we have, you know, young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is.”

“Democrats are always trying to prove they aren’t racist by talking about how dumb and incapable minorities are.”

“Can you imagine a kid, two years old, saying: ‘Mom, don’t take me across the Rio Grande. It’s against the law.’ Give me a break. These have been model citizens.”
Joe Biden

“Maybe Donald Trump will go away. Maybe he’ll go to jail. Maybe he will die. Not to be too morbid, but maybe — I mean, he’s not a young man.”
MSNBC’s Jen Psaki

“In all the years of the civil rights movement, Martin Luther King, Jr., and other civil rights leaders never lowered the American flag and raised the flag of black power. They embraced America and wanted all the promises of America to be applied equally to them. This movement on our college campuses today is full of hatred for the civilization that these students are blessed to reside in.”
Gary Bauer

“The most direct way for Joe Biden to improve his chances in November would be to become a good president — although it’s unfair to place such unrealistic expectations on him at this juncture in his presidency and career.”
Rich Lowry

“What we’re seeing is raw Jew-hatred. Period. End of story. It’s Jewish students who are being verbally harassed and physically assaulted. But the sad reality is that Joe Biden is so terrified of losing Muslim votes in Michigan and Minnesota that he cannot directly condemn anti-Semitism without giving equal time to Islamophobia, even though much of the anti-Semitism is the result of Islamic supremacism.”
Gary Bauer

“We should add college students who promote terrorism on behalf of Hamas to the TSA No Fly List.”
Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN)

“There’s nothing good about Biden issuing his [National Day of Prayer] proclamation in the wake of his constant promoting of abortion on demand and forcing our daughters to share bathrooms with boys. This is a president who has declared war on men and women who love Jesus and who love America. Applauding this proclamation is like applauding an enemy for his effective use of camouflage.”
Gary Bauer

“In politics, the best way to neutralize a blunder is to own it, whether by admitting it forthrightly, playing it for laughs, or turning it into a virtue. [Kristi] Noem did none of those. The result? A political career some had thought might carry her all the way to the White House is now going nowhere fast.”

“We’ll certainly never forget the dark days of June 6 — January 6, excuse me.”
Joe Biden

“Of course it’s a great American value to protest, but I don’t believe living in a pup tent for Hamas is really helpful.”
Senator John Fetterman (D-PA)

“How do the Democrats, how do all of us on that side, say January 6th was wrong if you can have the same pictures going on on college campuses? You lose the moral high ground.”
MSNBC’s Al Sharpton

“Who would take over our buildings and put another flag up? That may be fine to other people but it’s not to me. My uncle died defending this country. And these men and women put their lives on the line. And it’s despicable that schools will allow another country’s flag to fly in our country.”
New York City Mayor Eric Adams

“These college students say they are fighting genocide, but they subscribe to the same belief system that led to the Holocaust.”
Lisa Boothe

“A key difference between 1968 and today is that protestors then were revolting against an institution dominated by traditional liberals, whereas the radicals have steadily taken over the universities since. Today’s protestors are only crudely expressing the attitudes and tropes that they hear in many of their classrooms.”
Rich Lowry

“The basic formula for fighting back against Hamas’ useful campus idiots is simple: suspend, expel, arrest, prosecute and, as appropriate, deport the abominable mini-jihadis.”
Josh Hammer

“Smashing windows with hammers and taking over university buildings is not free speech. It is lawlessness and those who did it should promptly face the consequences.”
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY)

“This is not complicated: The University of Florida is not a daycare, and we do not treat protesters like children — they knew the rules, they broke the rules, and they’ll face the consequences.”
UF spokesman Steve Orlando

“These ‘Little Gazas’ are disgusting cesspools of anti-Semitic hate full of pro-Hamas sympathizers, fanatics, and freaks. … The terrorist sympathizers in these Little Gazas aren’t ‘peacefully protesting’ Israel’s conduct of the war. They’re violently and illegally demanding death for Israel, just like their ideological twins, the ayatollahs in Iran.”
Senator Tim Cotton (R-AR)

“It should not go unnoticed that President Biden has the ability to stop all of this on a dime. All he’s got to do is call the college presidents and say, look, if you don’t get control of your campuses, I’m going to withhold your federal money. The president hasn’t done that.”
Senator John Kennedy (R-LA)

“Law and order was a key theme that drove the 1968 election, which resulted in Richard Nixon’s victory over Hubert Humphrey. Another key event that came to symbolize 1968 and Humphrey’s defeat was the utter chaos at the Democrat National Convention, which was held in Chicago. Well, guess where Democrats are holding their national convention this year? That’s right — Chicago.”
Gary Bauer

“This is not complicated. Hamas committed the worst attack against Jews since the Holocaust. Hamas still has hostages, including five Americans. For defending itself and for going after an enemy that imbeds itself with civilians, Israel stands accused of ‘genocide.’”
Larry Elder

“The FBI director said that he worries about the Right. Don’t worry about the Right. The Right’s fine. Worry about the Left, because this is a movement from the Left. These are radical-left lunatics, and they’ve got to be stopped now, because it’s going to go on and on, and it’s going to get worse and worse.”
Donald Trump

“I will pay for any gay or trans anti-Israel protesters on campus to travel to Gaza and march for gay and trans rights there. I’ll rent out a plane, fly there and accompany you on a bus to the border of Gaza. I’m sure your arguments for tolerance will be well received there.”
Clay Travis

“When the Supreme Court says, ‘No prayer in school,’ ‘Abortion on demand,’ and ‘Men can marry men,’ the left insists that we follow and respect the court. But when the court says, ‘Abortion isn’t in the Constitution’ or ‘Christians can’t be forced to violate their faith,’ those same people scream, ‘The Supreme Court is illegitimate! It should be ignored!’”
Gary Bauer

“[People] need [comedy] so badly and they don’t get it. … Where is it? This is the result of the extreme Left and PC crap and people worrying so much about offending other people.”
Comedian Jerry Seinfeld

“Imagine being such a strong feminist that you cheer for men to physically dominate women in sports.”
Tim Young

OUTRAGE OF THE WEEK

The Open Borders Administration is collecting illegals who are ineligible for asylum and distributing them all across the country under the laughable terms of what they call their “migrant parole program.” As Fox News’s intrepid Bill Melugin — one of the only network journos covering Biden’s intentional 10 million-and-counting border invasion — grimly reports: “During an eight-month period from January through August 2023, roughly 200,000 migrants flew into the U.S. via the program. Of those, 80% of them, (161,562) arrived in the state of Florida in four cities: Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa Bay, according to DHS data obtained via a subpoena by the House Homeland Security Committee and provided to Fox News. The policy was first announced for Venezuelans in October 2022, which allowed a limited number to fly or travel directly into the U.S. as long as they had not entered illegally, had a sponsor in the U.S. already, and passed certain biometric and biographical vetting. The program does not itself facilitate flights, and migrants are responsible for their own travel.” Melugin adds, “By the end of February 2024, more than 400,000 nationals have arrived under the parole program, according to Customs and Border Protection data.” Imagine that. Illegals don’t even have to make the perilous trek to our southern border anymore. They can simply bypass our immigration laws and invade our country by plane.

HEROES OF THE WEEK

Conservative states across the country—Florida, Iowa, Louisiana, Tennessee, Georgia, and Oklahoma—are taking border security matters into their own hands, proposing or passing legislation targeting illegal immigration.

The Oklahoma legislature just passed a bill designed to prohibit illegal immigrants from entering or living in the state.

Texas’ law, Senate Bill 4, makes it a state crime to enter Texas outside legal ports of entry.

Earlier this month, Iowa’s Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds signed Senate File 2340 into law. The new law, which goes into effect July 1, makes it a misdemeanor to be in the state or attempt to enter the state after being deported, denied admission to the United States, or if an individual has an outstanding deportation order.

Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signed a new this month that requires law enforcement agencies to communicate with federal immigration authorities if they discover people are in the country illegally, requiring in most cases cooperation in the process of identifying, catching, detaining, and deporting them. The law takes effect July 1.

In Georgia, lawmakers passed House Bill 1105 that would require jailers to check the immigration status of inmates. Thebill is part of an ongoing political response to the February slaying of nursing student Laken Riley on the University of Georgia campus, allegedly by an illegal immigrant from Venezuela.

Texas’ neighbor, Louisiana, is considering the passage of SB 388, a GOP-led bill that would allow state police to arrest suspected illegal immigrants within the state.

The battleground state of Arizona passed a law similar to Texas’ HB 4, but its Democratic Gov. Katy Hobbs vetoed it. That inspired the Legislature to draft a ballot measure to be put to voters in November that would require businesses to use E-verify. E-verify is a voluntary federal online service for employers to check an employee’s eligibility to work in the United States against Department of Homeland Security and Social Security records.

New Hampshire, which is Republican-led, passed SB 504 allowing police to bring criminal trespassing charges against people suspected of illegally entering the United States from Canada. The measure must be approved by the House to advance.

“Four more years. Pause.”

“Columbia President Minouche Shafik canceled in-person classes Monday. [Tuesday], she announced that classes to indoctrinate students will be hybrid only for the rest of the semester. So, unable to protect Jewish students and staff on Columbia’s campus, her solution is to shut it down and force all students back into Zoom indoctrination classes. In other words, she surrendered to the mob. President Shafik has been morally tested, and she has failed.”
Gary Bauer

“The Ivy League has truly lost its mind. … If I had a kid at Columbia, I’d be livid. It’s simply mind-boggling that the president of this university would rather consign her students to another crucible of remote learning, than permanently expel the protesters. I mean, seriously, what does it take to get expelled from Columbia? … That’s what you get for $68,000 a year at Columbia — an administration who cowers in the face of thugs and bullies, and a university president who would rather make your kids try to learn off campus, than take a truly hard line with those students calling for the murder of Jews.”
Television host Mike Rowe

“Iran has attacked U.S. and Israeli diplomatic posts off-and-on for decades, most recently in 2023, when Iran helped plan an attack on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad. For this reason and several others, Iran’s justification for sending 170 drones, 30 cruise missiles, and 120 ballistic missiles into Israel on the grounds that Israel had bombed an Iranian diplomatic post is completely ridiculous.”
Victor Davis Hanson

“All the woke colleges that banned comedians because ‘speech is violence’ are camped out on the lawn chanting ‘death to Israel.’ This is the dumbest time there’s ever been to be alive.”
Jimmy Failla

“When I hear a bunch of American college kids and adults who should know better chanting ‘Death to America,’ I take it personally. What they’re really saying is, ‘Death to me and you.’ I’m an American. You’re an American. We’re all Americans — or used to be.”
Michael Reagan

“Hey remember like 5 years ago when colleges were building safe spaces full of fainting couches and trauma counselors in case a student saw somebody wearing a sombrero at a Halloween party? Good times.”

“Immediately deport all foreign students studying in the USA that support Hamas. We should also revoke federal student loans for any American student arrested for supporting Hamas.”
Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN)

“One of the wealthiest Jews in the world [George Soros] is responsible for the fact that we can’t keep street thugs in New York and other big cities in jail. And now he’s funding the thugs attacking young Jews throughout America. He must really be proud of himself.”
Gary Bauer

“The threat facing our country is from the far-Left and the drift that’s been occurring toward really a socialistic system and one that brooks no opposition, that cancels people, that has only one viewpoint taught in colleges, that tries to push parents out of the picture when it comes to the education of their children. It’s a heavy-handed bunch of thugs, in my opinion, and that’s where the threat is.”

“Time to make crime illegal again.”

“[Biden] subscribes to the idea that if you parry enough blows, eventually the man who is pummeling you will recognize the error of his ways and move on. He believes that a combination of economic penalties and shaming or embarrassing or chastising rogue regimes in the fictional court of international public opinion will lead to peace. He is wrong. Biden’s reluctance to unleash our allies — what the press calls his fear of escalation — has produced the disaster in Afghanistan, the slow-motion advance of Russia in Ukraine, the standstill in Gaza, and a Greater Middle East where Hezbollah, Iranian proxies in Syria and Iraq, and the Houthis do as they please. And there are eight months left in his term.”
Matthew Continetti

“I just don’t think people should have to go to jail for smoking weed.”

“Wouldn’t the WNBA need to generate more revenue to pay women more, or is the plan to have taxpayers subsidize their salaries? Also, what is a woman, and why do you think it’s fair for men to receive women’s awards and dominate their sports?”
Seth Dillon

“The [WNBA] has been in existence for 30 years and has never once turned a profit. … The league is a charity case, kept afloat by the NBA which generates well over 100 times the revenue and gives some of it to the WNBA so that we can all feel good about the fact that a women’s basketball league exist.”
Matt Walsh

“Most people boasting about the gleaming economy are inside the Washington bubble or nested inside college faculty lounges. … When nearly two of three Americans say things aren’t going well for their personal financial situation, the ‘don’t worry, be happy’ bromide isn’t the response most voters are looking for.”
Stephen Moore

“In less than four years, Trump changed the face of the Middle East — the most challenging diplomatic terrain in the world — for the better. All without violence or aggression. … It seems clear that Trump is totally justified in his claim that we would not have today’s turmoil if he still held office.”
Star Parker

“Yes, it was bizarre to watch the sitting president of the United States threaten other world leaders with his ‘nuclear button,’ which Trump assured those leaders was ‘much bigger and more powerful.’ … But Joe Biden doesn’t understand deterrence. In fact, he is deterred. … The image of the United States under Joe Biden is one of unending cowardice.”

“Foreign policy isn’t complicated. When you signal you might pull support for an ally like Israel, you diminish deterrence. When you diminish deterrence, the enemy feels emboldened to strike. Then you have to ACTUALLY consider getting involved in a war.”

“The pro-Hamas side is literally chanting ‘Death to America’ — in America. If Biden believes his reelection chances rest on getting votes from that crowd, he should run for office in the Gaza Strip, not the United States.”

“Reasonable minds can debate whether a massive cancellation of student loan debt is a sound idea or a reckless and unfair one.

“O.J. Simpson was an abusive liar who abandoned his community long before he killed two people in cold blood. His acquittal for murder was the correct and necessary result of a racist criminal legal system. But he’s still a monster, not a martyr.”

“O.J. Simpson was one of the greatest running backs of all time who had severe issues that led to him allegedly killing two people. He likely did it. Everyone knows he did it. But he was acquitted—that doesn’t make him a good guy.”

Joe Biden has created this open-border policy that has allowed illegal immigrants into our country to appeal to and to appease the far leftists in the Democrat Party … in hopes of trying to win their support while at the same time destroying the country that he’s in charge of. He is the commander-in-chief in charge of national security for our country. Our country is being invaded in ways that put our country at risk because of the political games that Joe Biden has played. And Mayor [Eric] Adams is just aiding and abetting that by having a ‘sanctuary city’ status, welcoming in anybody from across the world to live there or stay there in New York City.”
Texas Governor Greg Abbott

“Squatters have no rights. How can you even pretend that this is anything other than you’re just breaking the law?”
Senator John Fetterman (D-PA)

“Everybody who defends open borders by telling you ‘America was built on immigration’ fails to mention that they weren’t getting off the boats at Ellis Island and chanting ‘death to America.’”
Jimmy Failla

“I can safely walk my dog to the Capitol today in a way that you couldn’t do when we all got here.”
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who is guarded by security

“We got a solar eclipse. We’ve got the earthquake. … Also, I learned that cicadas are coming for the first time in like a hundred years. … All those things together would maybe lead one to believe that … climate change exists.”
“The View” co-host Sunny Hostin

“The fundamental problem with many of today’s Democrats is their embrace of radical leftist ideology. … Just because one person has more than another doesn’t mean that the first one is somehow guilty of oppression or of succeeding through ill-gotten means.”
Thomas Gallatin

“[Trump] will take a hammer and break the glass where the Constitution is, and he will tear it up in our faces and say: ‘Now I’m the king of the f—ing world. You will bow down, b-tch.’ He will punish everybody that didn’t vote for him. … [Trump] will have us in camps.”
Actress Jenifer Lewis

OUTRAGE OF THE WEEK

From Larry Elder, bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio talk-show host:

Consider this proposition: “Suppose that your favorite candidate loses a close election. However, people on the campaign know that they can win by cheating without being caught. Would you rather have your candidate win by cheating or lose by playing fair?” Just 7% of Americans said, “Win by cheating.” This is from a startling new Scott Rasmussen poll.

Rasmussen then put this question to those the pollster calls “the elite 1%.” They make over $150,000 per year, have a postgraduate degree, live in densely populated areas and give President Joe Biden an 82% approval rating. Why poll this group? Rasmussen said: “A heavy concentration of them went to one of 12 elite schools. … [H]alf the policy positions in government, half the corporate board positions in America, are held by people who went to one of these dozen schools.”

Thirty-five percent of this group said they would rather their candidate win by cheating than lose by playing fair. It gets worse. Rasmussen put the question to a subset of this elite 1%, whom the pollster calls the “politically obsessed,” defined as those who talk about politics every day. Among this group, the number who would rather win by cheating jumps to 69%.

“Former President Donald J. Trump still leads President Biden in the battleground states likeliest to decide the presidency, according to polls from the Wall Street Journal in seven key states.The findings echo other recent surveys. Over the last five months, Mr. Trump has led nearly every poll in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada and North Carolina — states that would give Mr. Trump more than the 270 electoral votes needed to win.”
The NY Times

“No, he’s not losing in all the battleground states. He’s coming up. … It’s obvious that Joe will win this election.”
First Lady Jill Biden

“I can make the argument that President Biden is a much worse threat to democracy, and the reason for that is President Biden is … the first president in history that has used the federal agencies to censor political speech, so to censor his opponent. If you have a president who can censor his political opponents, he has a license for any kind of atrocity. That is a genuine threat to our democracy. If you have a president who can censor his political opponents, he has a license for any kind of atrocity. That is a genuine threat to our democracy.”
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“It’s horrifying. Our numbers among younger voters, particularly younger blacks, younger Latinos. We’re not shedding them. They’re leaving in droves.”
Democrat strategist James Carville

“Transgender Visibility Day started 15 years ago. In the history of mankind, that’s about a second ago. And Joe Biden was under no obligation to issue a proclamation recognizing it. Meanwhile, the world has been marking the resurrection of Jesus Christ for over 2,000 years. The words used to describe transgender individuals are words the Biden/Harris regime would never say about Jesus Christ. They were described as ‘extraordinarily courageous,’ ‘part of the fabric of our nation,’ and deserving of ‘dignity and respect.’ They would never say that about Christians.”
Gary Bauer

“Like a number of Catholics, [Joe Biden] picks and chooses dimensions of the faith to highlight while ignoring or even contradicting other parts. … There is a phrase that we have used in the past, a ‘cafeteria Catholic’ — you choose that which is attractive and dismiss that which is challenging. … Especially in terms of the life issues, there are things that he chooses to ignore, or he uses the current situation as a political pawn.”
Washington, DC Archbishop Wilton Gregory

“Earlier this year, an ABC news poll found that an astounding 86 percent of Americans think Biden is too old to serve another term. For perspective, 81 percent of Americans have positive feelings about Thanksgiving, and 78 percent have positive feelings about Christmas and Mother’s Day.”
Jim Geraghty

“Seeing those three presidents [Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton] on the stage, these are the things that popped in my head: honesty, decency, integrity. Those are three servant leaders.”
DNC Chair Jaime Harrison

“In nearly four years in office, President Joe Biden has let in nearly the same amount of illegal foreign citizens that Ellis Island accepted legally in 60 years.”
Brianna Lyman

“I periodically marvel that a former U.S. president hung around with a notorious sex trafficker for years, that sex trafficker committed suicide under suspicious circumstances, and that former U.S. president … never got asked about it in interviews for years afterward. Because if there’s anything history can teach us, it’s that Bill Clinton would never lie about inappropriate sexual relations with much younger women.”
Jim Geraghty

“In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls. … I’m currently out of the country, but if what I’ve written here qualifies as an offence under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment.”
Author JK Rowling

“Anyone who really believes that men can become women, and that affirming biological reality is tantamount to genocide, is eventually going to throw you in prison. That’s why they use terms like ‘genocide.’ It’s not to accurately describe what you’re doing, it’s to justify destroying your life by force, through any means necessary.”

ALSO: The ‘hot’ March jobs report released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics is not as positive as the Biden government and corporate media are billing. It actually shows that in the past 12 months, the U.S. economy has seen the number of full-time jobs decline by 1.3 million while adding 1.09 million part-time positions.

One of the areas that did see full-time job growth was public sector employment. March saw an increase of 71,000 government jobs — outpacing the prior 12-month average of  54,000. Other sectors that added jobs last month — most known for their reliance on part-time employment — were the construction industry (39,000), leisure and hospitality (49,000), and retail (+18,000). The healthcare industry also saw significant growth, with 72,000 jobs added. However, again, this growth appears to be in areas of the industry reliant on part-time workers, including outpatient care (28,000), hospitals (27,000), and residential care facilities (18,000).

QUOTES OF THE WEEK

“We can’t take the chance of having a dominant news platform in America controlled or owned by a company that is beholden to the Chinese Communist Party, our foremost adversary.”
Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), author of the TikTok legislation

“My team and I conducted a thorough, independent investigation. We identified evidence that the President willfully retained classified materials after the end of his vice presidency, when he was a private citizen.”
Special Counsel Robert Hur, who subsequently decided not to charge Biden

 “So this lengthy, expensive and independent investigation resulted in a complete exoneration of President Joe Biden.”
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA)

“I did not exonerate him. That word does not appear in the report, Congresswoman.”
Robert Hur

“Mr. Hur, you cannot tell me you’re so naive as to think your words would not have created a political firestorm. You understood that … when you decided to go beyond specific references to documents, you understood how they would be manipulated by my colleagues here on the GOP side of the aisle by President Trump. … That was a political choice. It was the wrong choice.”
Rep. Adam Schiff, who manipulated evidence to help impeach Trump twice

“I could have written my report theoretically in a way that omitted references to the president’s memory. But that would have been an incomplete and improper report.”
Robert Hur

“Biden doesn’t have a stutter. He has dementia. You know it, I know it, and everyone with eyes and ears knows it. He’s a senile, demented old man who has no idea who or where he is half the time.”
Sean Davis

“President Biden treats the taxpayers as though we are limitless ATMs. Every dollar taken by the government from those who earned it is a dollar not spent on a family’s dinner table, a child’s education, or a retirement plan.”
Senator Rand Paul

“The president isn’t simply raising taxes to close the deficit, he’s raising it to expand government.”
Manhattan Institute’s Brian Riedl

“Notice Democrats never suggest cutting a single dollar in spending, or eliminating programs that don’t work, or have exceeded their ‘sell-by’ date. Instead, they demand more from the successful to subsidize and buy votes from people who pay no taxes, many of whom receive government checks.“
Cal Thomas

“Joe Biden has more respect for the dignity of illegal aliens crossing our border than he does for the victims of criminal illegal aliens. Where was Laken Riley’s dignity when her skull was being crushed?”
Gary Bauer

“[Laken] Riley’s murder should ignite demand for rigorous vetting of migrants entering the U.S. Riley is dead because the Biden administration lets anyone in and lies about it.”
Betsy McCaughey

“When people, especially older people who have grown accustomed to talking in a particular way, are unscripted, they often say what they think. [Joe Biden] doesn’t think that [the word ‘illegal’ is] offensive. … I think that it’s so silly to suggest that anyone should have a problem with the use of the word ‘illegal’ when illegal is what those people are. They are illegal immigrants, as distinct from immigrants who are here legally.”
Charles C.W. Cooke

“The real threat to democracy is the guy saying we are a threat to democracy. Biden and his neo-Marxist allies are working 24/7 to attack every liberty we have.”
Gary Bauer

“The President’s $850 billion request for the Pentagon in 2025 is a mere 1% increase over 2024. That’s a cut after inflation, the fourth in a row Mr. Biden has proposed.”
The Wall Street Journal

“Virtually every purple-haired vegan that you ever meet will support abortion. They oppose the killing of irrational animals as inhumane, but they support the killing of human babies as a human right. Go figure.” Michael Knowles

“I’m writing on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) … to respectfully suggest an appeeling way to modernize the White House Easter Egg Roll. … Instead of promoting the deleterious factory farming and slaughter industries, will you please initiate the annual White House Potato Roll?”

“He spent most of the night shouting, speeding through his speech and clearly overcompensating from the normal “everyday Joe” that can barely string two sentences together. At times it became uncomfortable watching him screaming and yelling and speeding through that speech. The AP affectionately called it feisty. I guess that’s one way to describe it. Tonight, America saw, let’s say, a very different Joe Biden. I might call him jacked up Joe. And that’s being charitable. He sounded like a hyper-caffeinated, angry old man.”
Sean Hannity

“I was saying back when it was not at all fashionable to say it, that he is senile. And now I think he is palpably senile and the country sees it.”
Political analyst Brit Hume

“The reason [Trump] doesn’t look old like Biden looks older: the presidency ages you when you do the job. … Donald Trump looks the same as when he ran because he was playing golf the whole time.”
MSNBC’s Joy Reid

“If I see a black person walking around with [a] Trump mugshot, I’m gonna punch him in the face. … Oh, I mean that sincerely.”
Former NBAer Charles Barkley

“What’s at stake for everyone, and particularly the black voters, is that our very democracy is at stake. … For example, making it harder to vote — [why] do you need an ID card to be able to go vote?”
Joe Biden

“The right to vote is still under attack. And that is why the Justice Department is fighting back. … That is why we are challenging efforts by states and jurisdictions to implement discriminatory, burdensome, and unnecessary restrictions on access to the ballot, including those related to mail-in voting, the use of drop boxes, and voter ID requirements.”
Attorney General Merrick Garland

“Look, the president is — he’s terrific. … Just a wonderful, thoughtful person. Always shows that empathy and warmth, and he surrounds himself with a great team that I think is doing well with record-low unemployment, and I think inflation is on its way down. And those fundamentals will help his reelection.” Colorado Governor Jared Polis

“I think the president is an incredibly compelling figure. And I would hope that the White House will send him out all over the country to just be who he is.”
Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT)

“Remember that Joe Biden is handling the complexities of the world. … The man is doing yeoman work.” Illinois Governor JB Pritzker

“It is impossible to deport every undocumented person in this country. There simply are not the resources, nor is it advantageous to us.”
Congresswoman Veronica Escobar (D-TX)

“Joe Biden campaigned on open borders. He campaigned on saying: ‘I will not deport people. I will not enforce our laws.’ And as president, that may be the only campaign promise he has honored.”
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX)

“There’s no president in American history who has undermined our valuable legacy of immigration more than Joe Biden. Maybe he’s the one who should be deported.”
Stephen Moore

“In much the same way that gun-grabbing Barack Obama became our nation’s top firearm salesman, Joe Biden has become its leading border wall pitch man. Unfortunately, nine million horses have already left the barn.”
Douglas Andrews

“Ponder this for a moment: Biden’s open border policies enabled record illegal immigration every year of his presidency. What do you think he will do in a second term when he doesn’t have to answer to the voters ever again?”
Gary Bauer

“When will we realize that the real racism belongs to liberals who see every Black American as a liberal mannequin, denying their uniqueness, integrity and individuality?”
Star Parker

“Two of the terrorist groups Israel is fighting in Gaza are calling on Muslims to wage jihad during the holy month of Ramadan. Does anybody know of another faith where a significant minority feels that the best way to honor their god in its most sacred time of the year is to kill those who don’t worship that god? It is troubling, to say the least. This is the reason why we should be much more careful about immigration from Islamist nations to America.”
Gary Bauer

“If a Republican were to show up in a church and talk about voting, he’d be accused of the supposedly rank sin of Christian Nationalism, flagrantly breaking down the Left’s sacred ‘wall of separation’ and thus threatening democracy. Yet Democrats can do that in black churches all day, every day. So not only do we have two-tiered justice … but we have two-tiered religious liberty.”
Nate Jackson

“When it comes to Washington (the city, not George), if you never trust a politician you will never be disappointed.”
Cal Thomas

QUOTES OF THE WEEK

“[Laken Riley] would be alive today if we had a secure border. Period.”
Clay Travis

“The important thing to focus on is any one instance shouldn’t shape our overall immigration policy.”
Congresswoman Katie Porter (D-CA) regarding Laken Riley, who was murdered allegedly by an illegal immigrant

“Republicans obviously seizing on this horrific tragedy at the University of Georgia. This girl, this nursing student, killed by an undocumented Venezuelan migrant, and they’re seizing on this as an example of Biden’s failure to protect the American people and to secure the border.”
CNN’s Jake Tapper

“When someone dies in a school shooting, the Left works to take away guns from everyone, including law-abiding citizens. But when a young, 22-year-old is murdered by an illegal immigrant that their policies let into the country, their first inclination isn’t to deport all of the migrants who pose a danger to Americans — it’s to dismiss it as random. Their outrage is obviously selective, based on their preferred political narrative of that moment.”
Suzanne Bowdey

“[Biden’s] stuttering is what caused a lot of his speech impediments, and we know that. It has nothing to do with his brain. He stumbles one time and everybody says, ‘He’s too old to be the president.’”
Congressman Jim Clyburn (D-SC)

“Joe Biden has gotten more done in three years than most presidents get done in eight years.”
DNC Chair Jaime Harrison

“Black voters — particularly black female voters — would resent a ploy to cast [Kamala] Harris aside, but there is one caveat: The substitute would have to be a popular black female. Only two fit the bill: Oprah Winfrey and Michelle Obama. Winfrey does not want the gig and, despite the hopeful speculation, neither does Obama. She hates politics. So, Harris it is.”
Larry Elder

“Democrats never seem to think it’s greedy when they demand higher tax rates on corporations or the rich so they can ‘afford’ their income redistribution schemes.”
Nate Jackson

“If the economy was doing well and our southern border was secure, more Americans would be willing to help fund Ukraine. But as long as Americans effectively see Biden putting the country last, they’re not going to support spending billions on an apparently unwinnable war.”
Thomas Gallatin

“The unions have never answered a simple question: If the union label is so beneficial to workers, how come you need to force them to join?”
Stephen Moore

“In like ’08, ’09, smartphones came in and kids stopped living their lives and started watching people live their lives. So we saw the biggest spike and the highest levels of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and suicidality since records have ever been kept. And it’s just continued on and on and on. And then COVID hits 10 years later and the same agencies that knew that are the agencies that shut down the schools for 2 years. Who does that? Who takes away the support system for these children? Who takes that and shuts it down? By the way, when they shut it up they stopped the mandated reporters from being able to see children that were being abused and sexually molested and in fact sent them home and abandoned them to their abusers. And referrals dropped 50%.

“I’m saying it was the safest group. They were the less vulnerable group. And they suffered, and will suffer, more from the mismanagement of COVID than they will from the exposure to COVID. And that’s not an opinion, that’s a fact.”
Dr. Phil on the impact COVID lockdown procedures had on children

“The function of this [bump stock] trigger is to cause this kind of damage — 800 rounds a second or whatever.”
Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

“We gotta jump on this abortion issue. We gotta jump on this book-burning issue. Run ads on these Nazi hags at school board meetings trying to ban Rosa Parks.”
Democrat strategist James Carville

“Black people can’t be racist.”
Former WNBA player Sheryl Swoopes
