Greetings! The truth about Truth Social. The Donald Trump-controlled platform was by far the fastest-growing right-wing news website in October.  Year-over-year Truth Social traffic rose a whopping 84%, according to TheRighting research.  Another right-leaning site, The Free Press, which was just purchased by Paramount, also saw dramatic growth. The Free Press and Truth Social were outliers in a month that saw news sites on the left and right experience declines. Read more here....The editorial board of the normally Trump-friendly NY Post has taken The Donald to the woodshed over fueling the affordability crisis. The editors are irked over Trump doubling down “on his obsession with tariffs”....Legendary former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s retirement announcement yesterday brought waves of insults from the right. The Washington Free Beacon was particularly nasty, alluding to her breast size (with an image taken on the beach in 2022), in this article by Andrew Stiles.  Of course, Trump, spewed on Truth Social, calling her an “old and broken political hack” and accusing her of “illegally” making money, playing the stock market...Weekend Whiff: “It” girl Sydney Sweeney stars as a boxer in the dark drama Christy opening today to somewhat tepid reviews. Memo to Sweeney’s agent: moviegoers are unlikely to attend in droves to see her play against type as a struggling pugilist. Hilary Swank already did it, delivering an Oscar-award-winning performance in the 2004 “Million Dollar Baby,” directed and co-starring right-wing Hollywood icon Clint Eastwood.  Weekend Watch: Try the five-part Apple+ documentary series Mr. Scorsese about the acclaimed director Martin you-know-who. It’s a knock-out...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

The Left never seems to find rock bottom when it comes to smear campaigns and moral bankruptcy.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Donald Trump naturally blames the GOP’s coast to coast Election Day defeats on his absence from the ballot. The Wall Street Journal’s conservative op-ed board  believes otherwise.  This WSJ headline says it all: Trump Really Was on the Ballot...Book Critic-in-Chief: In a Truth Social post, Trump showers praise on ex-FBI agent and current Fox News contributor Nicole Parker for her tome The Two FBIs. The book, which drops November 11, charges the agency had two sets of employees: dedicated, honest agents, and other ones pushing an anti-Trump agenda...Speaking of Truth Social, The Donald was a busy boy on his favorite platform last night, posting 12 videos relating to his 2024 November Election Day triumph.  Worth noting: senior citizens love to remember their past glories....Here’s how the Washington Free Beacon positioned its obituary of Dick Cheney: “Dick Cheney entered the kingdom of heaven on Monday to avoid watching New York City be overtaken by a trust fund communist who loves terrorism.” Not sure the Beacon got its facts straight about George W. Bush’s warmonger Veep entering “the kingdom of heaven”...In the massive coverage of Zohran Mamdani’s earth-shaking election victory in NYC, most media outlets on the right and left failed to mention that the mayor-elect used the Arabic phrase ana minkum wa alaikum (“I am one of you and I am responsible.”) He used it while referencing the neighborhood of Steinway, Queens, where he lived and worked as a politician. It is home to a mix of immigrants from all over the world. I wish he used two or three other languages as well.  The Arabic-language usage, although only four words long, probably did not land well with many Jews in NYC and around the world who are jittery about his stewardship of the Big Apple. Here’s the full transcript of his speech, per the Guardian....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Zohran the Barbarian Takes NYC

This will not end well.

Cometh the Hour, Cometh the Zohran

He did not give a “let’s see what we can accomplish together as New Yorkers” speech, nor a “even if you disagree with me speech my door will always be open to you and I want to hear your views” speech. It was more a “we won and we are going to crush you” speech.

Mamdani’s Plan Includes Free Money and Orwellian Government

For all those in New York City who voted for this Orwellian change, enjoy your free stuff while it lasts. Because, eventually, the NYC government WILL run out of other people’s money.

Mamdani Rips Off His Smiling Mask

source: Washington Examiner

His victory speech was downright sinister, glorying not just in his achievement but in having laid low his vanquished enemies and stuck it to others besides. He took off his smiling campaign mask and revealed his venomous self.

Mamdani’s Win Is a Tribute to Mass Migration

source: Human Events

On Election Night, common sense and Americanism lost all over the nation. Most notably, mass migration took over New York City as Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of America's most iconic city with the ardent support of the vast majority of New York's foreign-born population.

Zohran Mamdani and Jay Jones, two Democrats noted for their extreme views, both won major electoral victories on Tuesday night. Mamdani will lead America’s most populous city, and Jones will be the chief law enforcement officer in one of America’s most influential and prestigious states — a stark reminder that the left’s most radical elements are in the driver’s seat.

Only when compared to a corrupt, sleazy, nepobaby with blood on his hands, and a beret-clad, narcissistic cat-man whose own friends begged him to step aside, did voters view Mamdani as a much-needed alternative.

Socialism Didn’t Win in NYC. Social Media Did

Mamdani didn’t win a policy debate. He won a personality contest.

Say Goodbye to MAHA in NYC

From the Soviet Union to Venezuela, Cuba, Hungary, and Poland, state-run grocery stores mean long lines, empty shelves, corruption—and even black markets peddling expired food. Hard pass.
