Notable Quotes “Say What?!”

In the beginning of this, he said, “If you have a problem, you blame me. The buck stops at my desk.” He has yet to take any accountability and now we know he is writing a book about his leadership in the middle of the pandemic. I think he actually should be writing condolence cards to people.

- Fox News senior meteorologist Janice Dean, who lost family members in New York due to Governor Andrew Cuomo’s order requiring nursing homes to open their doors to patients with corona

My grandfather’s 99th birthday would have been tomorrow. Growing up, he had to cross the street if a white person was coming. He suffered the indignity of being forced out of school as a third grader to pick cotton, and never learned to read or write. Yet, he lived to see his grandson become the first African American to be elected to both the United States House and Senate. Our family went from Cotton to Congress in one lifetime. And that’s why I believe the next American century can be better than the last.

- Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) addressing the Republican National Convention as the keynote speaker on Monday night If you look at Joe Biden’s goals and Bernie Sanders’s goals, they’re not that different.

- President Obama, in a recent interview

The President did what he said he said he would do: he took action. He formed a School Safety Commission that issued dozens of recommendations to make schools safer. But I’ll bet you never heard about that. Instead, the media turned my daughter’s murder into a coordinated attack on President Trump, Republicans, and the Second Amendment. In fact, when President Trump asked me to sit next to him when he announced the Commission’s findings, the media’s first question wasn’t about protecting kids. It was about the government shutdown. President Trump turned to me and said, “Can you believe these people, Andy? We’re trying to talk about school safety, and this is what they do?”

- Andrew Pollack, who lost his daughter, Meadow, during the Parkland shooting in 2018, speaking at the Republican National Convention

I am... Mrs. C. B. Landau

FOUNDER, REFUAH HELPLINE

THIS IS OUR LIFE’S MISSION!

I am grateful to Hashem that we had the opportunity to dedicate the last 25 years of our life to Refuah Helpline and our ailing brothers and sisters; to stand by their side with all forms of medical aid and provide necessary advice as they make life-altering decisions.

It has been HKB”H’s plan for us to have this form of chesed BE our life. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur and every occasion, our team stands ready to help Cholei Yisroel on their path to a refuah shleimah. We

currently have over 30 staff members servicing thousands of patient files around the world!

With tremendous siyata dishmaya, we are trying to meet the demand, even with 450 calls coming into our office every day. But the lifesaving referral work, the medical research, case management, networking with top hospitals and professionals, the critical hospital transfers, the supporting of patients’ families and more, cost us MILLIONS each year and it’s a burden we can’t carry alone.

Right now, YOU can ensure the continuity of our holy mission! By taking part in our 36- hour campaign this Tuesday-Wednesday September 1-2, you will ensure that these vital services continue to be made available to Cholei Yisroel and their families.

My fellow Yidden, I turn to you today, pleading:

In the names of Acheinu Bnei Yisroel battling for their lives, please help us in this lofty mission! Help us save the lives of our fellow Yidden!

Those who’ve benefited from Refuah Helpline’s efforts know the critical importance of our efforts.

Let’s help those still struggling, and in return, may we never have to ever know of such anguish!

Thank You

- Joe Biden’s coalitions director Ashley Allison on a call with Jew-hater Linda Sarsour and fellow Muslims apologizing to them for the Biden campaign distancing itself from Sarsour after Sarsour spoke at the Democratic National Convention and promising that Biden does, in fact, consider Sarsour a vital partner in his work

Behind me, you’ll see the city of Danbury sewer plant. And we are going to rename it the John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant. Why? Because it’s full of [garbage], just like you, John.

- Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton in a Facebook video after faux-social justice warrior John Oliver trashed the Connecticut town in a HBO monologue

We find ourselves in a unique situation — having an iconic slogan that doesn’t quite fit in the current environment. While we are pausing the use of “It’s Finger Lickin’ Good,” rest assured the food craved by so many people around the world isn’t changing one bit. It is a destruction of our history, something no other First Lady would have had the gall to do. This is the first time I have been furious that [the First Lady] is a foreigner. She has no right to wreck our history. It’s good to see you all. Hope you had a great weekend at your convention.

- KFC announcing it will temporarily halt the use of its “It’s Finger Lickin’ Good” catchphrase because the notso-hygienic prompt feels “inappropriate” in light of the coronavirus pandemic and the need for hygienic vigilance

The world is going to end if we don’t get a green new deal. The world is going to end if we keep on bombing and allowing Israeli brigades to go into Palestine.

MORE QUOTES

Those false promises – spread the wealth, defund the police, trust a socialist state more than your family and your community – they don’t sound radical to my ears. They sound familiar. When Fidel Castro was asked if he was a communist, he said he was a Roman Catholic. He knew he had to hide the truth. But the country I was born in is gone, totally destroyed.

- Cuban-American businessman Máximo Álvarez, who came to the U.S. alone as a child from Cuba under Operation Peter Pan, warning America at the Republican National Convention (RNC) about the danger of socialism

When I watch the news in Seattle and Chicago and Portland, when I see history being rewritten, when I hear the promises – I hear echoes of a former life I never wanted to hear again. I see shadows I thought I had outrun. I heard the promises of Fidel Castro. And I can never forget all those who grew up around me, who looked like me, who suffered and starved and died because they believed those empty promises. They swallowed the communist poison pill.

We could fact-check this convention all night. People were saying you didn’t fact-check the Democrats. They are not lying, the way Trump does. Do politicians lie? Of course, both parties engage in it… But not like Donald Trump. Nobody lies the way this man does, has, and will that I’ve ever seen in politics. So he’s lying to you.

- Chris Cuomo on CNN explaining why his network did not fact-check the Democratic National Convention last week but is doing so to the Republican National Convention
