Notable quotables from Donald Trump, Pramila Jayapal, Clay Travis, Ian Haworth, and more.
Dumb & Dumber
“[Elon Musk] was not born in this country. … I think this is just perfectly wonderful for Trump. He can take a nap and let this foreigner, foreign agent — you know, an enemy of the United States — do his job.” —"The View" co-host Joy Behar
“Mr. Musk has just been here just 22 years and he’s a citizen of three countries. I always ask myself the question: With the damage he’s doing here, when push comes to shove, which country is his loyalty to? South Africa, Canada, or the United States?” —Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur
“Elon Musk is not a scientist. He is not an engineer. He is a billionaire con man with a lot of money.” —Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Braying Jenny
“We can’t let them deport the millions of families across this country who have been doing the work that keeps our economy going every day. … If you look at the food that’s on your table, think about who picked it.” —Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal
The Bottom Line
“The vast majority of that spending comes in the form of entitlements, means-tested welfare programs and interest on the national debt. DOGE will touch little of this. The reality is that the United States is in a debt spiral from which it is unlikely to emerge without serious fiscal restructuring.” —Ben Shapiro
“The national debt of $36 trillion is our biggest national threat. Nothing else is a close second.” —Clay Travis
For the Record
“Want to understand how Jeffrey Epstein got away with everything? Watch how Andrew Tate is getting away with everything.” —Ian Haworth
“Countless Americans voted for Donald Trump because he pledged to end human trafficking…and if his administration freed Andrew Tate, it’s an utter insult that will be a stain on his presidency.” —Ian Haworth
“No. Florida is not a place where you’re welcome with that type of conduct.” —Governor Ron DeSantis answering whether the Tate brothers would be welcomed in Florida
“Zero political capital should be spent on rescuing sex traffickers.” —Allie Beth Stuckey
And Last…
“I put out a directive … that they all will be terminated and their security clearances will be revoked.” —DNI Tulsi Gabbard outlining her response to the NSA perverted chat room scandal
