TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Donald Trump has one staunch defender of his noxious comments about Rob Reiner: disgraced ex-congressman George Santos. Here’s what the serial liar and convicted conman posted on X.   Lucky for the Looney Tunes Santos, last October Trump pardoned him after he served three months of a seven-year sentence for fraud and identity theft...Olivia who? In one short week, Vanity Fair has flipped the script on its tainted brand identity for platforming the much maligned  and scandal-ridden journo Olivia Nuzzi.  Now the pundit class is praising the Conde Nast outlet for its revealing interview with Trump’s chief of staff Susan Wiles that reveals a dysfunctional White House staff. Worth noting: Check out the two-part article's group photo of The Donald’s senior team and Wiles’ creepy deer-in-the-headlights gaze...Social news: It’s wedding bells for Kyle Rittenhouse! In 2020, when he was 17, Rittenhouse became a right-wing darling after he shot three men, killing two of them, during a BLM demonstration in Kenosha, WI. Rittenhouse, who was acquitted of all charges, got hitched six months ago. PJ Media has the details. More nuptial news: Mazel tov to Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump Jr. (Betcha never expected to see those word in the same sentence.) MTG is engaged to Real America's Voice White House Correspondent Brian Glenn. And Don Jr. is betrothed to socialite Bettina Anderson. The Washington Post has the details on both couples. Worth noting: Ms. Anderson has a degree in art history from that lefty hotbed Columbia University, per this Business Insider profile...Wednesday watch: Trump speaks to the nation tonight at 9 p.m. ET. Maybe he’ll apologize for his monstrous post about the murder of Rob Reiner? Don’t hold your breath...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

The West’s mass importation of Third-Worlders with no emphasis on assimilation has been, is, and will continue to be a complete failure.

The West’s Growing Killing Cult

The West is increasingly in the grips of a killing cult, whose champions mask terminating human life from prebirth to old age and everywhere in-between in the language of compassion and right

In a Perfect World, Merrick Garland Would Be Living in Gitmo

Merrick Garlandvturned the Department of Justice into Biden's personal goon squad. For four years, the nation's chief law enforcement officer had zero respect for the law. Garland's focus was on getting revenge on Republicans for keeping him off the Supreme Court.

His status as a folk hero could influence the verdict more than any evidence in the case.

Thank God Rachel Maddow Only Appears Once a Week

source: Conservative View from NH

By Ray Cardello: I do not understand what attracts MSNOW viewers to Rachel. She is not attractive at all, and wearing the same drab, black attire gives the illusion of watching a rerun. Her facial gestures are annoying and detract from what she is saying, which is often not a bad thing.

The administration’s rollback is another sign that the climate panic is receding.

Trump’s Response to Reiner Murders Was Unnecessary and Awful

source: Victory Girls

The president won no friends or admirers with these comments. We know he is capable of great compassion, but it makes it very hard to convince people of that when he spouts off with this level of unnecessary ugliness. It’s an outright failure all around, and someone close to him with the ability to read the room should tell him so.

There’s No Evidence Australia’s Strict Gun Control Laws Are Effective

source: The Federalist

The supposed benefits of Australia’s gun buy-back rest on flawed statistics. Only concealed carry reduces mass public shootings.

Erasing Masculinity Has Created a Generation in Crisis

source: Daily Signal

America is waking up. After years of being told that gender is fluid, that chromosomes are incidental, and that masculinity is toxic or obsolete, America is rediscovering a truth our culture worked hard to bury: The Y matters.

Minnesota Fraud Proves Welfare Is Broken

source: Fox News

The failure of political leaders on many fronts bears some of the blame. But the main culprit is the massive federal welfare system that annually passes hundreds of billions of dollars down to states to dole out, with the philosophy that the more people on the rolls, the better.

The War on Drugs Just Got Louder and a Lot More Honest

source: SteveGruber.com

The War on Drugs took on a new twist Monday in the Oval Office when Trump declared fentanyl a Weapon of Mass Destruction—ratcheting up his target on drug cartels and the poison they deliver to America’s shores, killing 100,000 or more people a year in this country.

The Labor Market Is Stronger Than Experts Think

source: Townhall

The mainstream media was predictably quick to denounce the labor market as weak according to November’s jobs report, but the talking heads are simply wrong. That alleged weakness is almost entirely confined to government bureaucrats and foreign workers, while private industry is employing more Americans.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Donald Trump is being pummeled from all sides of the political spectrum for his vile Truth Social rant yesterday denigrating Rob Reiner after the murder of the acclaimed director and  his wife Michele. (you can read it here in case you missed the link yesterday). The pathological POTUS failed to recognize that the moment called for a gesture of unity, tolerance and reassurance for a nation shell-shocked by the spasms of violence over the awful weekend. Here’s my suggestion for what Trump should have written if he possessed a single cell of decency.  “Melania and I extend our deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Rob and Michele Reiner who were murdered in their home Sunday afternoon. While Rob Reiner and I had different political views, that never stopped me from admiring the skill and artistry he brought to a decades-long entertainment career on both sides of the camera. He made significant and lasting contributions to one of America’s greatest industries and exports.  His films brought joy and happiness to millions of people around the world, and they deserve to stand the test of time.”  Worth noting: Trump’s ghoulish post prompted thousands of comments on the far-right Truth Social, virtually all negative...Vanity Fair MAGAzine: That’s what  Showbiz 411 cleverly calls Vanity Fair after publishing a gushing group profile of the children of MAGA luminaries Ted Cruz, Kristi Noem, RFK Jr, Lee Zeldin, and Howard Lutnick. “There’s not a bit of reporting involved, just wet kisses,” hisses writer and veteran Tinseltown chronicler Roger Friedman. “No mention of Barron Trump who’s MIA in the world. No talk of the RFK Jr brood’s various issues except to say one of them is ‘a model in Milan’”...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Trump Is Right to Lambaste Europe

source: American Greatness

Trump’s National Security Strategy ditches diplomatic niceties, calling out Europe’s ruling class for decline, cowardice, and surrender—while Washington shows more backbone than Europe’s own leaders.

Venezuela Is Where Trump Aims to Annihilate Our Adversaries

Venezuela is swiftly becoming ground zero of President Trump’s America First reshaping of US foreign policy. The United States seized the oil tanker Skipper off the country’s coast Wednesday, capping off months of heightened tensions.
