TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Pillow fight? Wacky right-wing firebrand and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has filed paperwork signaling a possible run for governor of Minnesota in 2026. That would put the outspoken election-denier on a potential collision course with MAGA world piñata Governor Tim Walz. Big League Politics breathlessly describes Lindell’s ambitions as “trigger(ing) a political earthquake”...The White House has unveiled a media bias portal designed to reveal what it considers the most biased mainstream media reporting.  Leaving aside the inflammatory content it posts, the site is a confusing and poorly designed data dump of various grudges the Trump administration has against legacy media outlets...Dept. of Sticks & Stones: Trump called Colorado’s Gov. Jared Polis a “sleazebag” in a late-night Truth Social rant. POTUS is peeved because the Dem governor wouldn’t let convicted felon Tina Peters out of jail.  The election conspiracy theorist was sentenced to nine years in prison after she “helped Trump supporters access confidential data about the 2020 presidential election,” according to Fox31 in Denver....It’s about time!

Hegseth’s “Kill Them All” Line Was Just Another Media Invention

No direct quote. No evidence. No wrongdoing. Just partisan operatives feeding rumors to desperate reporters hunting for another scandal that doesn’t exist.

Is It Too Late to Reverse 50 Years of Indoctrination?

source: Conservative View from NH

As if the decline of basic skills in reading and math was not bad enough, our children were no longer taught the true history of America, instead concentrating on the plight of the Native Americans and the scourge of slavery. The curriculum was twisted to make America look like an evil experiment instead of the greatest country in the history of Earth.

A GOP Win Foretells Midterm Trouble

source: Wall Street Journal

Former Tennessee General Services Commissioner Matt Van Epps beat state Rep. Aftyn Behn by about 9 points, with the Democrat pulling 45% of the vote. That’s a lot narrower than the 22-point margin by which President Trump carried the district last fall and the 21-point margin by which Mr. Green was re-elected.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Asleep at the wheel while steering the free world: Mainstream media took note of Trump nodding off at his cabinet meeting yesterday, the second such incident in recent days.

(USA Today).... The NBC Nightly News with Tom Llamas blew it last night.

Minnesota’s Cookie Jar Catastrophe: The Walz Watch Melts Down

source: SteveGruber.com

All but eight of the 86 people charged in the meals, housing, and autism therapy fraud cases are of Somalian descent. That’s just fact—not racism. And it’s so predictable that Gov. Walz  would try to deflect by playing the race card.

The Fieriest Trump Comments in History

source: Western Journal

He called Somalis (and Rep. Ilhan) "garbage." Trump was speaking of the Somali people as a whole — something he rarely ever does when going after somebody. Trump has seldom had issues viciously attacking a person or idea … but an entire people? The president was clearly fired up.

Does Impeachment Loom for Pete Hegseth?

source: Victory Girls

The Liberals/Commies on Facebook and X are jonesing for a scalp. They are so peeved that Trump changed the name of the Pentagon’s head from Secretary of Defense (so gentle and unthreatening) to Secretary of War (lethal and efficient).
