NOMINEES: 

 

Don Lemon: “Our Democracy Can Be Gone In a Second” Under Trump 

“We are watching an administration right now that treats the Constitution not as a covenant but as an inconvenience. That they don’t have to abide by. ‘This is inconvenient and this is getting in our way.’ It’s authoritarianism and we need to be careful because the very little that’s left in our democracy can be gone in a second – if it’s not too late already.”
— Former CNN anchor Don Lemon’s speech at the Human Rights Campaign dinner, February 7. 

 

Kathleen Parker: Trump Has “Taken a Page” from Hitler’s Mein Kampf

“He’s [Donald Trump] still clinging again to the 2020 — we know it was a fully regular election he lost. And he can’t let it go because I think he’s taken a page from Mein Kampf, frankly, you know, the saying that if you say — tell a big lie often enough and repeat it, then people will believe it.”
— Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker on PBS’s News Hour, February 6. 

 

Jimmy Kimmel: Republicans Are Protecting “Pedophiles” and “Rapists,” While Attacking Illegals Who Are “Raising Your Children”

Rep. Lisa McClain: “And you know what the Democrats want to do? Let’s release them into your communities. And let’s celebrate the criminals. Let’s villainize the ICE agents and celebrate the people who are raping your children.”
Host Jimmy Kimmel: “I think she meant to say raising your children? I mean, listen, could you imagine how ignorant these people are screaming about pedophiles and rapists while members of their own party seem to be doing everything they can to protect the pedophiles and the rapists in the Epstein files.”
— ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, February 10.
