TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Oct. 22, 2024

Greetings! Required viewing for conspiracy theorists:  Excellent “60 Minutes” segment Sunday featuring Jeff Howell, Emergency Management Coordinator for a storm-ravaged North Carolina county. Howell called bullsh*t on right wing conspiracy theories about how the federal government supposedly geo-engineered the storm and that FEMA was seizing the property of county residents…Finally! New York Times conservative columnist Bret Stephens relented and admitted in a column yesterday that he will reluctantly vote for Kamala Harris.  A never-Trumper in the past, Stephens has floated that he might write in a name on his ballot because of his disdain for Harris.  I don’t care if he holds his nose and gags while checking the Harris block…Good news for Dancin’ Donald Trump: Hip Hop artist Porsche Truck Ruk just released his pro-Trump music video Say What You Mean. According to the promotional material, “the rapper unapologetically fuses his support for Trump with the raw energy of rap”… More good news for Trump: Maxim Magazine, the feisty, slightly risqué young men’s editorial brand, just endorsed The Donald.  “Trump is becoming more socially acceptable,” observes the Daily Caller’s Gage Clipper.  “He’s no longer radioactive. We’re starting to see institutions cater to the interests of their actual audience — in this case, young men — rather than conform to the elite corporate hivemind. So it’s a good sign that normie culture mags like Maxim now feel safe endorsing Trump without the fear of being boycotted out of existence”…If  you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
