Quotes for our Times:

Matt Vespa, Senior Editor at Townhall. com: What the Biden team did to the hotline between DCA and the Pentagon is something out of 'Airplane'.

Again, this hotline was down for three years, and no one in the Biden administration knew. It also doesn’t help that those two incompetent secretaries ran the departments involved, who then reported to a president who was braindead. The Biden mental health cover-up and the overall incompetence of the past regime might have led to the deaths of 67 people.

Mark Lewis has taught history and English in America, South Korea, and China, and is an author: Why do democrats protect criminals?

Next time you talk to a Leftist and he/ she tell you they are patriotic Americans, ask them what they mean by “America”. Then quote them the first few sentences of the Declaration of Independence—“all men are created equal, and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights…that to secure these rights [not give them] governments are instituted among men…” See if that is the America they believe in. Quote to them James Madison: “The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded.” This is the America the Left doesn’t want people to know.

Hugh Hewitt, Fox News contributor: About those illegal immigrants in the United States. Could we try some common sense?

In my most recent interview of President Trump I noted to him that he had begun a political realignment, but I also noted past realignments have been begun and also lost for a failure to move to the center, most recently and obviously by President Obama who went left instead of to the center. His legacy is the Democratic Party of today: hard left and going farther left still.

President Trump can cement his legacy with a regularization program combined with the toughest of crackdowns on the criminal and the violent. If he decides to go for that, it’s a domestic equivalent of 'Nixonto- China,' and a guarantee of the realignment lasting as well as his reputation as a one-of-a-kind president.

Dave Marcus, columnist for Fox News Digital: The Left’s sudden epiphanies were obvious to normal folks all along.

The question that nobody can answer except for liberal journalists themselves is whether they actually believed this procession of lies, even when almost everyone else doubted it, or whether they knew they were lies but peddled them anyway, at the cost of their own dwindling credibility.

Put another way, are they liars or just dumb? And make no mistake, there is a plethora of evidence for the latter.

The liberal media thinks it can earn back the trust of the American people with these Johnny-Come-Lately apologies and admissions over things we all knew all along. They can't fool us anymore, but it looks like they can still fool themselves.
