Quotes for our Times:

Matt Vespa, Senior Editor at Townhall. com: MSNBC guest spreads a massive lie about the stranded astronauts.

It took less than two months to do what Biden could never do, which was secure the release of hostages and bring these two astronauts [Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita Williams] back.

Yet, on MSNBC, they tried to spin this tremendous win for Trump and the nation, adding that Wilmore and Williams were never stranded despite that being the national media consensus. Even the fake news media writ large couldn’t say they weren’t. The pair were up in space much longer than their original mission. PBS, ABC, BBC, CSPAN, and even Live Science all described their situation as being stranded

Tim Graham, director of media analysis at the Media Research Center and executive editor of the blog NewsBusters.org: CBS paints Trump as worse than Venezuelan gangs.

The Left touts the 'civil liberties' of illegal immigrants as if they were uniformly sympathetic Trump victims. When some of these people commit violent crimes — and the raped and/or murdered people lose their civil liberties — networks like CBS ignore or downplay them because that would feel like positive coverage for Trump, and that cannot be allowed.

Liz Peek, Fox News contributor: Democrats 'resist' Trump but go nowhere.

Unions are prodding the change of heart, with the UAW (which endorsed President Joe Biden last fall) saying last month, 'We are glad to see an American president take aggressive action on ending the free trade disaster that has dropped like a bomb on the working class.' Pennsylvania Rep. Chris Deluzio recently published an op-ed in the New York Times entitled: 'I’m a Rust Belt Democrat From a Swing District. Anti-Tariff Absolutism Is a Mistake.'

Deluzio wrote, 'Democrats need to break free from the wrong-for-decades zombie horde of neoliberal economists who think tariffs are always bad.'

Here’s the reality: Democrats need to break free of a whole bucketful of 'wrongfor- decades' policies. Until a real leader emerges, it is not clear they will.

Gregg Jarrett, Fox News legal analyst, commentator, and author: The law supports Trump's deportation of violent gang members, despite judge's errant ruling.

Fatigued with violent immigrant crime, the American people are substantially in favor of deportations. They expressed their desire at the ballot box. Does any serious person believe that dangerous foreign gangs like Tren de Aragua who have terrorized innocent victims should be allowed to stay here? President Trump is utilizing every tool that the law affords to evict enemy aliens who pose a constant threat. …

Lower court judges are duty-bound to follow Supreme Court precedent. On that basis alone, Judge Boasberg’s precipitous ruling is wrong as a matter of law.
