TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Bring back Karoline? The White House press secretary job has been vacant for more than a month after Karoline Leavitt voluntarily left the position.  Since then, the prickly POTUS has banned CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House.  Never would have happened on her watch, according to MSNOW.com. White House sources who spoke to MS NOW believe Leavitt would have been able to talk Trump out of the ban...Week’s most accurate right-wing headline. I wish this wasn’t true but I’m afraid I have to agree with The Federalist: Legacy Media Implode Over Losing White House Passes While the Rest of America Shrugs...Conservative pundit and columnist Ann Coulter has a bone to pick with Trump rebranding AI as “Super Intelligence.” She thinks a more accurate term is “Artificial Stupidity.” “Grok simply refuses to punctuate columns, and Google A.I. insists on capitalizing ‘Black,’ lower-casing ‘white,’ and cutting any sentences it doesn’t like, without telling me,” she writes in her latest column. “That’s despite my express request: ‘Correct the punctuation without changing any of the language’”...Weekend watch: For fans of true-crime docuseries, the three-part Netflix show Death of the Pastor’s Wife delivers a first-rate journey into the twisted marriage of a controlling, sexually obsessed bible-thumping pastor and his shockingly compliant young wife.  My only complaint with the show is its title.  We’re rooting for the wife to escape the clutches of her domineering husband, but the title has already signaled to viewers the tragic outcome. Worth wondering: This is pure speculation on my part, but is Netflix already in pre-production for a documentary series on Lindsay Clancy?...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard


Today's Headlines From the Right

Greenland Triumph Is Trump’s “Art of the Deal” in Action and It Drives His Critics Crazy

Again and again, Trump’s critics freak out over his rhetoric, lambaste him as a lunatic or a tyrant (or both), and then watch as he gets basically what he wanted.

How Green Is His Island

The moment Trump began talking about annexing Greenland, it was clear that this was one more example of the art of the deal: Trump started by rattling sabers and hinting at the possibility of waging war on a NATO ally; he ended up at a friendly sit-down at the UN with the prime ministers of Denmark and Greenland, both of whom celebrated it as a boon for all three parties.

How the West Lost Its Will to Reverse Mass Migration

source: The Free Press

Can a country allow mass lawbreaking and retain its integrity? For almost any crime you can think of, the answer is no. No country would allow people to walk into another person’s house or let them drive on the wrong side of the road. Yet many politicians behave as if they have no choice when it comes to mass illegal immigration.

CNN’s Entire Newsroom May End Up Working for Elon Musk as Paramount-WBD Merger Steamrolls Lefties

source: Western Journal

Billionaire Elon Musk has the chance to make one of the most hilarious, stunning, and impactful moves since his 2022 purchase of Twitter.  Where X was once a cesspool of leftist propaganda in which voices on the right were suppressed or banned, it now functions as an arena for free speech. Another cesspool of propaganda, CNN, could find itself under Musk.

Reporters from CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, barred from the complex Friday, were ushered back onto the grounds after a U.S. District Judge  granted a 14-day temporary restraining order. Colleagues greeted them as if they had returned from war, complete with applause, selfies, and solemn behind-the-scenes footage of reporters walking into the White House.

Judge Restores White House Pass for Fake News, But No One Has to Hand Them a Microphone

CNN, MS NOW and Politico are getting their White House press passes back after a federal judge temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s decision to ban the three outlets. But getting through the gate doesn’t guarantee a question at the next press briefing.

Last Ditch Lesbian Bar Tries Leaving 2020

source: Victory Girls

It is 2026 everywhere except, apparently, one lesbian bar in western Massachusetts. Less than a year after opening, Last Ditch Bar is already struggling financially, yet its patrons are still masking up inside the bar like it’s 2020. So the owners tried something truly daring to bring in more business: one mask-optional night a week. You can imagine how well that went.
