We say: Uh, that “individual” was a . . . knife-wielding lunatic who tried to stab people and wound up getting shot by a cop.
Facing blowback, Wu defended her remark, noting “every loss of life is a horrible tragedy.”
But given her uber-woke record, you’ve got to wonder if she’d have actually preferred if the wacko had succeeded in stabbing someone.
“[Elon Musk’s] worldview is inseparable from his rearing in apartheid South Africa.” — William Shoki, The New York Times, Feb. 28

Shoki slams Musk for the crime of having been born in apartheid South Africa and even says “his ideological commitments” bear apartheid’s “trace.”

We say: Memo to comedian John Fugelsang: The Confederacy was established and dominated by Democrats, in order to maintain slavery.
And it was Republican President Abraham Lincoln who went to war to destroy the Confederacy and who later abolished slavery.
If this is the best the left can do to tar Republicans, no wonder they’ve lost so much ground with voters.
“We are gonna continue to speak lies to [Trump’s] truth.” — Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D), Tuesday
We say: OK, everyone occasionally misspeaks.
But this slip-of-the-tongue by Kamlager-Dove, who bolted rudely from the president’s speech to Congress a few hours later, marks a rare instance when a Dem actually told the truth about what lefties do: They “speak lies to truth.”
