Wednesday Short Cuts

The BIG Lie: “If you wonder why the President of the United States, the junior senator of the United States, Mr. Rubio, the sitting Governor of the state of Florida are fighting like you know what to stop a vote count, that ought to tell you something.” —Andrew Gillum, who wants to establish a “stolen election” narrative (No Republican wants to not count every vote. Republicans do, however, want to stop voter fraud and Demo election tampering.)

Hypocrite: “Think how demeaning our politics has become in terms of how we talk about one another. There’s the opposition, not the enemies. In a week following another contentious political season, the presentation of the Liberty Medal is a critical reminder that neither Republicans nor Democrats hold a monopoly on the values and the ideals that define us as a nation.” —Joe “Put Y'all Back in Chains” Biden

Pre-election: “I will serve my six-year term.” —Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)

Post-election: “I’m thinking about.” —Kirsten Gillibrand when asked on “The View” if she’s running for president

At least she’s honest: “I do have my own biases, specifically to blond women. Blond hair on white women just triggers me, and I’ve had to catch myself. … We, even as black women, have to be willing to look at our biases that keep us from being able to bridge the gap.” —actress Jada Pinkett Smith
