out of CONTEXT A compilation of quotations on a variety of issues by national, state and regional writers, well-known personalities, just plain everyday people and from various publications collected by the editors of THE ADVANCE. Quotes for our Times: Matt Vespa, Senior Editor at Townhall.com: There's no way Joe Biden actually tweeted this. 'Happy birthday, Jilly. I love you.' The reactions to the post have been hilarious. Joe Biden’s declining health and ensuing cover-up has been a topic of discussion for years. We knew he was cooked while the media and the Democrats tried to lie about Joe’s condition. The CNN debate obliterated all doubts that Biden could do the job. So, given his mental state, anything is suspect here. Byron York, chief political correspondent for The Washington Examiner: How Trump led GOP from 2021 despair to 2024 triumph. Trump led the party to win more votes from black voters, from Hispanic voters, Asian voters, young voters and voters who rarely, if ever, voted. And he did it while emphatically rejecting comprehensive immigration reform, which the 2012 GOP leaders believed would be their salvation. Trump rejected some other cherished Republican orthodoxies, too. Most importantly, though, Trump succeeded among Republicans and then nationally by being a strong leader. It is safe to say he is a unique individual, both as a leader and as a man. There's no telling whether GOP gains will last beyond Trump's time in office. But for more than a decade, Trump has been building a Republican coalition that accomplished things the earlier GOP leaders thought impossible. Sarah Arnold, Townhall.com: Why people are upset over AOC's response to the horrific Boulder terrorist attack. In a social media post, AOC said she was 'horrified' by the attack and declared that Americans have a “moral responsibility to confront and stop [antisemitism] everywhere it exists.” At first glance, her response appeared sympathetic to the incident, in which an illegal immigrant threw Molotov cocktails at demonstrators calling for Hamas to release the remaining hostages. However, [World Series champion Kevin] Youkilis criticized her statement as more “virtue signaling” than a genuine commitment to addressing the rise of antisemitism in the U.S. Dave Marcus, columnist for Fox News Digital: Sens Fetterman and McCormick show Washington how to work together again. It may be lonely in the center left for Fetterman right now, but I suspect it won’t be for long. Recent polling puts the favorability of the Democratic Party at a record-low 19%. If it gets much lower, we will have to add an asterisk and 'if necessary,' to references to the 2028 primary. The far-left approach, with its oligarchy tours on private jets and old 60s folk songs sung by folks in their 70s, and the constant cursing, none of it is working, it's all making things worse for the Democrats. Progressives understand this. That is why they blame sexism for former Vice President Kamala Harris’ defeat last year, instead of her horrible candidacy and their failed policies, it is exactly why they are terrified not of Trump, but of more moderate Democrats who could kick them out of power in the party.
