Quotes for our Times:

Guy Benson, Townhall.com's Political Editor and author: Losing in multiple new polls, Stacey Abrams continues election lies.

She's lying, again, about the new Georgia elections law, and her lies have already been debunked by actual reality — in which voter participation and turnout smashed all previous records in the 2022 primaries. As for 2018, the fact is that she lost, fair and square. There was no malfeasance or suppression or fraud. Her ego and her 'brand' wouldn't allow her to admit defeat, so she repeatedly stated that she was rightful winner of that 2018 race. Her party and many in the media cheered her on, turning her into a cult figure on the Left, which has also made her rather wealthy. Now that she's been back in the fray, her quality as a candidate is again being tested, and it looks like she's failing that test pretty badly this time around.

Leah Barkoukis, online features editor at Townhall.com: Biden will no longer be able to tout falling gas prices.

For the first time in nearly 100 days, gas prices rose, up to $3.681 on Wednesday from $3.674. …

Part of Biden's strategy for bringing prices down includes depleting the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which is now reaching crisis levels. …

Republicans have also been hammering Democrats' messaging on gas prices given that they're still well above where they were on the day Biden took office, when the national average was $2.39, according to AAA.

Greg Gutfeld, host of Gutfeld! and co-host of The Five: Martha's Vineyard exposes liberal hypocrisy.

So all is white. I mean, right in Martha's Vineyard again. Oh, it was a close one. After a frightening interaction with 50 happy migrants, the brave citizens of the rich liberal enclave handled the monumental crisis by calling in the National Guard and shipping them off to an Air Force base.

But damn, Trump didn't even call in the guard when cities were burning to the ground. And here they're called in for 50 migrants. But I get it. You know, what If somebody wanted to use the bathroom? Oh, and they'll probably want some food, right? A glass of water. We don't want that. So within 48 hours, those migrants were off Martha's Vineyard faster than a Kennedy fleeing a submerged vehicle.

Tucker Carlson, host of FOX News Channel’s flagship primetime cable news program, Tucker Carlson Tonight: Tucker Carlson shreds Biden over the border crisis: 'It's all his fault'.

But the bigger story and the one that affects the rest of us, the other 340 million people who live here, is that what we saw in Martha's Vineyard is, in fact, just a taste of what is absolutely the official policy of the Democratic Party and it is this: If your town votes the right way, then you get military protection. The military shows up immediately. 50 people not hurting anybody and the army comes to remove them. Can you imagine? Talk about a 911 call. That's pretty great. All you need to do is vote 80% for Joe Biden and you can do that and throw some donations this way too. But what about everybody else? Well, everyone else is SOL, and that would include all of us.
