TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Weird. The free Trump White House daily newsletter that I receive every day featured a salute to Mother’s Day showcasing The Donald’s mother Mary Anne MacLeod Trump with this caption: “The Mother Who Saved America.” The president has quite a Jesus complex brewing...Funny. Killer Saturday Night Live open this weekend featuring Kash Patel (played by Aziz Ansari), Pete Hegseth (Colin Jost) and Brett Kavanaugh (Matt Damon) in a DC bar doing shots.  The jokes were extremely unflattering and I wonder how they landed with the trio, especially the thin-skinned Hegseth....Former TIME magazine editor and writer Richard Zoglin makes some stark comparisons between the media maverick Ted Turner, who died last week, and Donald Trump, especially as it pertains to philanthropy. “(A)s he grew richer and more famous, Turner plowed his money into public-spirited ventures that never would have occurred to Donald Trump,” writes Zoglin in a column for TheRighting. “(Turner) was open-minded, naïvely optimistic, confident in his ability to affect the world in positive ways. He had the life spirit. Trump is the death star”...The Trump-controlled Truth Social platform outperformed by a wide margin all other news websites monitored by TheRighting in April.  According to TheRighting’s research, year-over-year visits ballooned 45% last month.  All other news websites decreased except for a very modest increase at the Epoch Times.  The surprising three-month trend shows that the war with Iran is not driving more eyeballs to news websites...Kash Patel has penned an op-ed for Fox extolling the virtues of his agency's “AI overhaul” which he claims is producing record-breaking results for the bureau.  He concluded his essay writing, “America is safer than we’ve been in decades.” (Cue the gagging)...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Barack Obama’s Desperate Need to Hog the Spotlight

He was our 44th President. His time was done at noon on January 20, 2017. He won’t leave the spotlight. He can’t. Time in the spotlight has become his oxygen. He’s not trying to prove a point. He just needs it. He is desperate. He’s got nothing else. He’s got nowhere else to go

Gavin Newsom Offers Diaper Service

California’s government can’t keep homeless off the streets, keep energy prices low, or do much of anything else well. But never fear, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s state diaper service is here. The California Governor said Friday that the state will soon begin providing every “newborn delivered in a participating California hospital” 400 diapers at no cost.

Why Won’t Barack Obama Go Away?

He apparently admitted that his politicking is causing "genuine tension" in their marriage. It hardly seems like Obama's antics are helping his party, either.

If Missourians think the debate about gender-neutral bathrooms is isolated to states like California, they should pay attention to what recently happened at Kansas City International Airport.

The Hollywoke Strain

Mega-bomb exhibits A to Z: brown Snow White, Latino heavy West Side Story, girl power The Marvels, all-female Ghostbusters, gay Eternals, feminist Charlie’s Angels, gay-environmentalist Strange World, black The Little Mermaid, etcetera. Clearly, audiences have had enough of their traditional values getting displaced by delusion and degeneracy.
