There’s a reason that this place is fun. There’s a reason why we have a 49-yearlow crime rate.

- Glenn Greenwald, Fox News, talking about how the media lied about Capitol Hill Police Officer Brian Sicknick being killed on January 6

Let’s be clear about reparations— the theory is that we have to pay great-greatgreat-great-great-great-great grandsons and granddaughters, eight generations of people who were enslaved 150, 160 years ago, and I believe we’ve paid those reparations. I think 330,000 white Union soldiers were killed in the Civil War and another 30,000 Blacks. Those were pretty strong reparations.

– Dick Morris, Newsmax

The messaging on this has been horrific. The message should be “get a vaccine because it’s good for you to do it. It works. You’re not going to have to be doing anything like, abnormally. You can live your life.” I mean that has got to be what the message is. Unfortunately, I think the message has been very muddled. When you tell people, “Oh yeah, yeah, this important. Go get the vaccine,” but then you’ve still got to social distance, you can’t do this, you can’t do that, you can’t eat in a restaurant. Some of the people are still saying that kind of stuff…. My view is, if you get a vaccine – vaccines are effective – you’re immune, so act immune.

We have got to fight for justice. I am very hopeful, and I hope that we are going to get a verdict that will say guilty, guilty, guilty. I don’t know whether it’s in the first degree, but as far as I’m concerned it’s first degree.

I’ll give you that Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned.

- The judge presiding over the Derek Chauvin trial, responding to the defense team’s request for a mistrial based on Rep. Waters’ threats

The irony of what Congresswoman Waters did, she borrowed the playbook of the Ku Klux Klan from the 192os, the 1930s. They would stand outside of courtrooms and they would threaten violence if any juror would ever acquit a black person or convict a white person. Now we’re seeing exactly the opposite –we are seeing mobs outside the courthouse and we’re seeing members of Congress just like the Klan had governors and senators and very prominent public officials demanding verdicts in particular cases, and now we have a member of Congress demanding a verdict in the case.

- Attorney Alan Dershowitz on Newsmax
