From some Brit:
“I saw Starmer in the White House telling Trump we’ve had [freedom of expression] in the UK for a very long time, and I thought, ‘Yeah, right.’ We can see what’s really going on.”
Read this for an explanation of the above. Then be grateful you don’t live there. (To my several Brit Readers: I’m sorry, folks.)
From SecState Marco Rubio, after revoking a whole boatload [sic] of foreign student visas from pro-Hamas types:
“We gave you a visa to come and study and get a degree, not to become a social activist.”
More like this, please.
From the Reform UK party’s first elected mayor, Andrea Jenkyns:
“I say no to putting [illegal immigrants] in hotels. Tents are good enough for [them in] France, they should be good enough for here in Britain.”
Her logic is irrefutable.
Of course, my suggestion (that the tent encampments should be located on uninhabited islands in the Outer Hebrides, far away from the British mainland) would no doubt be considered too Krool & Hartless, even by Dame Andrea.
From Steve Kruiser:
“Trump is also aware that there is no guarantee that the GOP will continue his work when this term is done, so he knows that he has to assume that making America great again is all on him. It would be nice to believe that he’s getting things moving in the right direction for years to come, but we have all met the Republican Party.”
…which explains all the Democrat screaming about deportations:
REMINDER: The reason Democrat judges are fighting so hard to keep illegals – even the criminal aliens – is all about control of the House. If illegals were removed or not counted for apportionment Democrats would lose 10 seats in the house giving the GOP a 27 seat advantage.
I forget who said it (Bierce and Mencken are the two major candidates), but it’s only half-true:
“When politicians talk, no matter the topic, it’s always about money.”
I’d modify that only slightly, to make it true:
“When Democrat politicians talk, no matter the topic, it’s always about power.”
Sent to me by Reader Greg S., this little pearl from Julius Malema, head of South Africa’s Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) political party:
“I’m willing to condemn murder, but not of white people.”
Fair enough; but I’m likewise willing to condemn political assassination, but not of Julius Malema.
See how that works, asshole?
