TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! As a tumultuous week closes, one constant is that the Wall Street Journal continues to hammer the country’s hapless president. Today’s lead op-ed quite rightly asks whether Donald Trump actually has a China policy. The editorial  forcefully states that Trump is “making it up as he goes.” Looks that way to me too…Michelle Obama refuted rumors of marital discord with her hubby on the “Work in Progress” podcast, reports The Daily Beast.  Still,  don’t expect the interview to quash the catty chatter.  I hope the rumors are just that. I’ve been a big fan of the former first lady since her “Tonight Show” dancing routine with Jimmy Fallon more than a decade ago (YouTube)…I'm 100% in agreement with this headline from staunchly conservative PJ Media: “Can we please stop talking about 2028 already?”…Weekend watch: Hulu's documentary series Oklahoma City Bombing: American Terror, pegged to the April 19 30th anniversary of the attack which killed hundreds. It’s a compelling boots-on-the-ground examination of one of the deadliest homegrown acts of violence in our nation’s history and well worth watching, especially in the current climate where ultra-right extremism is so often normalized. In a related note, I  interviewed JeffreyToobin two years ago about his excellent book on the same subject, “Homegrown: Timothy McVeigh and the Rise of Right-Wing Extremism.”  Toobin makes the case that McVeigh’s transformation into a right-wing radical was shaped by the some of the same forces that brought America’s democracy to the brink of disaster on January 6, 2021…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Trump at the Crossroads

source: The American Conservative

If Trump can end the Gaza war and strike an accord with Iran, he will go down not only as a skilled dealmaker but a transformational peacemaker. And if he can reverse mass migration and end unfettered free trade, he will turn back the tide of globalism and inaugurate a new era of sensible nationalism.

The USA is already showing signs of coming out on top. China needs our markets to survive.

By C.J. Pearson: Let’s get one thing straight: Jasmine Crockett isn’t ‘ghetto.’ She’s not from ‘the streets.’ She’s not the hood-savvy voice of the everyday black American struggling to survive in an America where Democrats have failed them. No, Jasmine Crockett is a fraud.

The Siren Song of the Non-White Vote

It is a fact that whites are the only ethnic group that ever votes majority Republican. By any rational calculus, therefore, Republicans’ sole objective every election should be driving up the white vote, both as a share of the GOP voters and as a share of the electorate. It’s great if minorities vote for you, too, but that’s not what wins elections.
