NOTABLE QUOTABLES (March 7, 2024)

CAN’T FIX STUPID

“I do believe that states should be able under our Constitution to bar oath-breaking insurrectionists. … Ultimately, it will be up to the American voters to save our democracy in November.” – Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold

“I am working with a number of my colleagues … to revive legislation that we had to set up a process by which we could determine that someone who committed insurrection is disqualified.” – Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD)

“The Supreme Court has betrayed democracy. Its members including Jackson, Kagan and Sotomayor have proved themselves inept at reading comprehension. And collectively the ‘court’ has shown itself to be corrupt and illegitimate. It must be dissolved.” – former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann

THE LIGHTS ARE ON BUT NOBODY’S HOME

“[Yesterday], millions of voters across the country made their voices heard — showing that they are ready to fight back against Donald Trump’s extreme plan to take us backwards. Every generation of Americans will face a moment when it has to defend democracy. This is our fight.” – President Joe Biden

“What’s at stake for everyone, and particularly the black voters, is that our very democracy is at stake. … For example, making it harder to vote – [why] do you need an ID card to be able to go vote?” —Joe Biden

“My poll numbers? The last five polls you guys don’t report. I’m winning – five. Five in a row.” – Joe Biden

VEEP THOUGHTS

“I know that one of the best ways we’re going to keep our firefighters safe is to have more firefighters to be able to work on the job with you, to be able to do the work that is about putting the resources into what the communities need.” – Kamala Harris

FOR THE RECORD

“There’s no president in American history who has undermined our valuable legacy of immigration more than Joe Biden. Maybe he’s the one who should be deported.” – Stephen Moore

“Ponder this for a moment: Biden’s open border policies enabled record illegal immigration every year of his presidency. What do you think he will do in a second term when he doesn’t have to answer to the voters ever again?” – Gary Bauer

“Two of the terrorist groups Israel is fighting in Gaza are calling on Muslims to wage jihad during the holy month of Ramadan. Does anybody know of another faith where a significant minority feels that the best way to honor their god in its most sacred time of the year is to kill those who don’t worship that god? It is troubling, to say the least. This is the reason why we should be much more careful about immigration from Islamist nations to America.” – Gary Bauer
