TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Trump is once again sticking his beak into places it doesn’t belong. He’s upset about pitcher Roger Clemens’ omission from the baseball Hall of Fame.  Clemens, who won more than 350 games in his career, had his legacy tarnished by serious accusations of drug use that may have enhanced his performance on the mound.  Trump wrote in a Truth Social post last night that he’s not in the Hall “because a bunch of jealous people with far less Talent, voted that he shouldn’t be there.” (Memo to Natalie Harp, Trump's ghostwriter:  perhaps you can explain at some point why you decided to capitalize “Talent.”) My suggestion to Trump is that he should spend more time trying to solve his Middle East quagmire and let MLB and baseball scribes worry about the far less consequential Hall of Fame... Crash! Far-right conspiracy theorist and Trump buddy Laura Loomer reports that Angie Nixon, described by Loomer as Florida’s communist state representative, crashed her car four times between 2009 and 2013. Nixon is running as a Democrat for a Senate seat in November.  It appears that the opposition research is just beginning to heat up......DSA the Movie: That's what the conservative entertainment blog Hollywood in Toto is calling the upcoming theatrical movie “How to Rob a Bank."  “The trailer all but screams DSA, the radical wing of the modern Democratic party that doesn’t believe in law enforcement, let alone capitalism,” writes editor Christian Toto.  “Here’s betting New York’s own Zohran Mamdani will likely be first in line on opening day.” The film opens September 4....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.
