WEEKEND QUOTABLES

"President Trump, please don't fire Sean Spicer"-- CNN

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) to Howard University students

 “You are graduating into a very different time than it was when you arrived a few short years ago,” said Harris, a graduate of Howard. “We have a fight ahead. It’s a fight to determine what kind of country we will be. And it’s a fight to determine whether we are willing to stand up for our deepest values.” -- Washington Post
Carl Bernstein

"It's a different dynamic than we've ever had to deal with before. Richard Nixon was a criminal president. Donald Trump is a president with whom there is grave question about his fitness and ability to conduct the office of the president -- and that's going hand-in-hand with the possible coverup into collusion with a foreign power." -- 
CNN
 NYU Prof. Nouriel Roubini ("Dr. Doom")

"Now, the biggest elephant in the room is the United States," Roubini argued that the "biggest uncertainty in the world and biggest tail risk comes from the economic, foreign and security policies of the Trump administration." -- CNN
Henry Scott Wallace

Nonsense, my grandfather said in that speech: We Americans “are no more a master race than the Nazis.” -- American Fascism, in 1944 and Today (NYT)
 Donald Trump at Liberty University

“In America we do not worship government, we worship God.”  -- The Atlantic
