The most incompetently-used quote is probably Dick the Butcher’s “The first thing we do is, let’s kill all the lawyers” in Act IV, Scene II of William Shakespeare’s “Henry VI, Part II.” Quoted out of its proper context to suggest that lawyers are the bane of society, the actual quote means the exact opposite. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens explained in a 1985 decision: “As a careful reading of that text will reveal, Shakespeare insightfully realized that disposing of lawyers is a step in the direction of a totalitarian form of government.”
Now our Secretary of Education has secured a niche in the false quotation Hall of Shame with his recent gaffe referring to the resources and technical assistance his department can provide state governors, “I think it was President Reagan said, ‘We’re from the government. We’re here to help.’ ” As anyone with a working knowledge of Reagan’s political philosophy and his memorable quotes—Wait, this guy is in charge of our education?— should know, the context of that quote was Reagan mocking the ability of big government to muck up anything it touched. The full quote was, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.’”
Of course, given the proclivities of the Biden administration, Cardona might have known the actual quote’s meaning, but was deliberately misrepresenting it anyway assuming most of the public are ignorant dupes

On the other hand, if President Biden were to quote President Reagan’s quote, it would go like this:
“The six most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.’”
My wife just looked very strangely at me, wondering why I was laughing so hard. I about coughed up a lung…
The political left, their lapdog Pravda-USA media, and their woke consumed bureaucracy create one false narrative after another.
I’m honestly thinking of collecting that nifty little group of symptoms and calling it a “Santos” or “Santos Syndrome” in honor of the pathological liar George Santos that took the left’s tactical pattern of constantly lying to the public to an absurd extreme.
I really can’t trust a word I hear from the left as truth, it’s always some kind of bastardization, twisted propaganda, outright lies.
