Quotes for our Times:

Louie Verrecchio, Renew America:

MISSING: The seasonal flu.

Even in cases where a patient may test positive for both the flu and the COVIDS, guess which one is being reported as the cause for their hospitalization? Before you answer, bear in mind that the $2 trillion CARES Act passed by Congress in March increases per-patient Medicaid reimbursements to hospitals by 20% for patients listed with a “principal or secondary diagnosis of COVID-19.”

CONCLUSION: Barring new evidence, I’d say this case has been solved.

Monica Showalter, American Thinker Journalist: Another Democrat indignity for the National Guard: Toddler snack meals.

First it was the questioning of Guard loyalty and professionalism. Then it was the garage floor. Now it's the toddler snacks. They wanted a show of troops as a means to falsely claim that they are in danger from 'terrorist' conservatives, yet they managed only to show their contempt for the military. All for their own self-aggrandizement, no less.

Brian C. Joondeph, M.D., physician and freelance writer: Right on schedule, COVID pivots for Biden.

Would anyone be surprised, now that Trump is out of office, if hydroxychloroquine is given a second look? Or ultraviolet light? We’ll see. A new president means new rules.

Watch the numbers now drop, cases and deaths, all because of the brilliance of Joe Biden compared to the buffoonery of Donald Trump. COVID guidelines are changing right before our eyes, just as the news reporting has morphed from orange man bad to senile man good. Was it ever about the virus or just about the election?

Christopher Paslay, Philadelphia public schoolteacher, counselor, and coach: Anti- white racism pervades major academic publisher's teacher resources.

That's how identity politics and Critical Race Theory work. Divide good people up by race, religion, sex, and sexuality, and then polarize them against each other. And the ones who share your political agenda? Gloss over all of their egregious behavior and pretend it doesn't matter. And for those who demand equal treatment and colorblindness? Brand them all as white supremacists, and discredit their worldview as evidence of domestic terrorism.

Eddie Zipperer, freelance journalist:

Chuck Schumer urges Biden to grab power and shred the Constitution.

The fact that Schumer’s interpretation of the Constitution is dependent upon who lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue provides a lot of insight into the four-year temper tantrum that we were all witness to. Those things that were existential threats to our entire way of life are simply good government in the Biden era. Nothing to do now but sit back and discover what else is only dangerous when Republicans do it.
