NOTABLE QUOTABLES (January 5, 2023)

FOR THE RECORD

“Zelensky is not wrong to seek more American aid; it’s in the interest of his country. The United States is not wrong to provide aid; defeating Russia’s invasion is in the interest of our country. But this does not mean that the Ukrainian and US goals here are identical …” – Ben Shapiro

“Seeing politicians show more patriotism for Ukraine – a country most couldn’t identify on a map one year ago – than our own is a real big bummer.” – Allie Beth Stuckey

“At the present time, China is the greatest threat to world stability, Russia is the world’s premier aggressor-nation and Islamist groups are the primary exporters of terror and (religious) totalitarianism. And, for the first time in history, America is the world’s major exporter of destructive ideas.” – Dennis Prager

“Education is there to teach you how to function successfully in a complex society, and when you lose sight of that, then you start saying, ‘Oh, we’ve got to concentrate on what kind of pronoun you use, and whether you’re really a girl or a boy, and are you a victim?’” – former Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Ben Carson

BELLY LAUGH OF THE WEEK

“Don’t bag on Zelensky for showing up to the White House in a sweatshirt. Apparently a member of the Biden administration stole his luggage.” – Jimmy Failla

THE BIG LIES

“We’ve never seen a major invasion of a European country since World War II.” – Joe Biden (“Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 while Biden was vice president.” – RNC)

“This is a president who has been working since day one to work on border security.”  – White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre

“We do believe in the rule of law, and we will respect it. And we will honor that here from this administration.” – Karine Jean-Pierre

“The president is in good health. He is in  – he’s very active. You see it for yourself with your own eyes.” – Karine Jean-Pierre

AND LAST…

“We reject this woke ideology. We seek normalcy, not philosophical lunacy. We will not allow reality, facts, and truth to become optional. We will never surrender to the woke mob.” – Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
