TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings.  Commenting today from Florida, a place I love, yet saddens me because it’s ground zero for the nation’s anti-vax movement. Still, upon my arrival in the Sunshine State last night, I was pleased to read the Wall Street Journal editorial that shredded Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. for his unhinged testimony during a Senate hearing yesterday.  The WSJ editorial board  rightly called him out for his lie-laden defense of his undermining of his department and other government agencies, such as the CDC, entrusted with the public’s health. “Is Robert Kennedy suffering from Covid,” they asked cheekily.  “His memory was foggy”... Chicago University political science professor Robert Pape wrote a must-read NY Times op-ed  describing the Windy City as a “powder keg” because of the impending occupation by federal troops. Among Dr. Pape’s reasons for his fears: (1) The occupying forces don’t call their incursion an occupation; (2) The occupation is often extended longer than intended; (3) Protests often occur leading to suppression; (4) The purpose of the occupation often changes beyond its original purpose...The Department of Justice is considering a gun ban for transgenders to “prevent mentally unstable individuals from committing an act of violence.” (Daily Wire)...The Daily Caller says it’s time for those on the right to stop  underestimating Gavin Newsom...Weekend Watch (retro edition): I’m more than a decade late to this TV tea party, but I just became completely hooked on Downton Abbey, the 52-episode British historical drama that debuted in 2011. The brilliant upstairs/downstairs drama, chronicles the travails of an aristocratic British  family between 1912 and 1926.   If you haven’t watched it yet, brew a cuppa tea, munch a biscuit and settle in for a treat on Peacock...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Rumors of Trump’s Demise Were Greatly Exaggerated

source: SteveGruber.com

If you believed the Left’s Labor Day weekend rumor mill, Donald Trump had kicked the bucket somewhere between a golf swing and a Diet Coke. Sorry to disappoint the Dems, but the president was and is very much alive – and, in fact, doing what he always does: driving his enemies into a froth without lifting a finger.

Greetings! Dept. of What Else Is New? The Trump administration favors Fox News. Here’s the proof.  For the third month in a row, the White House Wire, the Drudge-Report-like mini-aggregation newsletter featuring good news about the Trump administration, has showered far more links on Fox News than any other news website.  According to TheRighting’s just-released analysis of the White House Wire, it linked 22 times to Fox News in August, almost twice as its closest competitor....Speaking of Fox News, rival Newsmax just filed an antitrust lawsuit against the right-wing juggernaut alleging major violations. In the three months TheRighting has been tracking the White House Wire, Newsmax has been linked to twice, while Fox News has been linked to 73 times...Good question:  The National Review wonders if we’re at war with Venezuela after the U.S. military’s lethal strike of a powerboat suspected of carrying illegal drugs...A new nonfiction book by right-wing podcast superstar Ben Shapiro dropped Tuesday.

American Thinkers describes them as Affluent, White, Female Liberals...The right-wing website Human Events declares that America is in a sex recession.  Here’s why (in case you’re wondering)....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.
