Quotes for our Times:

Spencer Brown, managing editor for Townhall: Nikki Haley slams 'self-loathing' dems, calls for 'moral courage' to defend American principles.

The increased will of these barbarians to harm America at home and deal blows to freedom abroad is the fault of President Biden and his disastrous and deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan. 'The fall of Saigon and the Iran hostage crisis rolled into one' gave the world its cue, explained Haley, that their time to wait was over. 'The fall of Afghanistan has every one of them thinking America’s era has ended and theirs has arrived,' she said.

'Everyone saw it coming, except the president,' Haley said, 'who promised it would never happen. Where I come from, that’s a fireable offense,' she quipped.

J. Robert Smith, writer for American Thinker and political blogger: Biden is brewing a national crisis.

With Democrats likely facing awful elections prospects, might the Biden administration push COVID lockdowns?

Draconian blue state lockdowns led the way in crippling the national economy last year, which had as an aim hurting Trump’s reelection prospects. The lockdowns were, in part, a pretext to blast out ballots across states (so much for chain of custody and ballot security). Proof that Democrats want rigged elections in perpetuity is found in their “For the People Act of 2021.”

Greg Gutfeld, host of Gutfeld! and cohost of The Five: Well done, Joe, you really are a unifier. We all think you're nuts.

So now the FBI will split their time between tracking down men in Viking hats, and irate parents who were rude to teachers. As for the legitimate daily threats we get from al Qaeda, we’ll get to them right after we raid the home of this mouthy soccer mom at dawn and arrest her in front of her kids because she had her own thoughts about how her kids should be educated.

So while they target parents, you can still follow a woman into a bathroom and film her — and the president will defend it. Not only will he defend it, he’ll probably ask what kind of shampoo she uses.

Tucker Carlson, host of 'Tucker Carlson Tonight': The left will now use armed agents to enforce their radical ideology.

Last week, prosecutors in Chicago announced they wouldn't pursue murder charges because a teenager who was stabbed to death was, they said, engaging in 'mutual combat.' Again, it’s totally fine. Some kid got stabbed to death. Not a big deal. That's nothing like disagreeing with a school board.

And on some level, it's not. Gang members can shoot each other, they can stab children to death, but that's not the same as challenging Joe Biden's authority to document your children. That's what they fear.
