Quotes for our Times:

Matt Vespa, Senior Editor at Townhall. com: Joe's lying has destroyed his empathy image.

Only a Democrat suffering from dementia could think that brain cancer and a lineof- duty death are comparable. Joe can’t even remember when Beau died, which could partially explain why he is dragging his dead son around, hoping to score political points. Or it’s a pathetic attempt to keep that compassionate reputation alive when it's dead. Admittedly, that’s not because Biden keeps invoking dead Beau — it’s largely over his failed economic agenda and his refusal to recognize the damage it has caused to America’s working families.

Byron York, chief political correspondent for The Washington Examiner: Trump faces troubles, but Biden campaign is dead in the water.

Think about it. In the past six months, Biden has traveled the country, touting what he believes are his economic accomplishments. He has spent zillions of dollars on advertising, focusing specifically on the key states. And at the same time, Trump was either preparing to go on trial or, since April 15, actually on trial in New York, facing a maximum of 136 years in prison. And Biden is still unable to catch Trump.

Greg Gutfeld, host of Gutfeld! and cohost of The Five: There's no shortage of parasites out there living off the brains of others.

So as the brain worms continue to burrow their way into our culture and our kids, just remember they all have a common ancestor. You can call it progressivism or cultural Marxism, whatever it is, you got to ask, how did it get there? I mean, look who's acting crazy today and who isn't and that should tell you something. True, there are a few zanies on the right, but that bubbles up from below. This mass hysteria on the left is purely top down. It comes from professors, the media, the hard left organizations that have money and no scruples. This isn't QAnon, it's CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post, Media Matters and the like. That's why we don't have the worm. They do.

Gregg Jarrett is a Fox News legal analyst and commentator: NY vs Trump: Liar Michael Cohen can run but can't hide from the truth even though lying is in his DNA.

Anyone who has ever had the misfortune to deal with Cohen describes him in the most detestable ways. Nasty, vile, and loathsome. A churlish bully bereft of morals. It’s consistent with his seething hatred — as seen on the videos. In one, he’s wearing a T-shirt with a photo of Trump superimposed behind prison bars. He was forced to admit in court Tuesday that he wants Trump convicted.

That alone is a motive to lie, which is second nature to Cohen. It’s in his DNA. He’s pathological. It’s compounded by another motive — greed. His livelihood is dependent on trashing Trump. He has no other source of income. Without Trump to fulminate against, he’d be a pauper.
