TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Bimbo in Limbo: President Trump revealed yesterday that he’s considering firing Kimberly Guilfoyle, the United States Ambassador to Greece.  She’s under fire because of a devastating Wall Street Journal article  last week alleging that she urged a wealthy GOP donor to give her $100,000 to pay off her American Express bill. She is Don Jr.’s ex-fiancée, and a staunch POTUS ally, although that could change dramatically in the coming days. Until Trump decides her fate, she’s twisting in the wind. (CBS News)...Remembering Trump from the 80’s (and it ain’t pretty): For a short period of time, Spy magazine the satirical Manhattan-based periodical, which first folded in 1994, has resurrected its old articles about Donald Trump, when he was something of a bad joke to New Yorkers in the know.  They’re all available in this Substack for a month in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the magazine’s founding. Sample article: Guess Who’s One of the Most Embarrassing New Yorkers? Spoiler alert: Trump easily makes the list...“The Charlie Kirk Show” is the third quarter’s fastest growing right-wing YouTube channel  according to new research released today by TheRighting. The daily show, hosted by Andrew Kolvet, a friend of the slain conservative activist, added 110,000 new subscribers from June 30 to September 30...Dept. of Surprises: Tyler Cowen, a writer for the right-tilting Free Press, argues that America needs African immigrants in his latest column. He says they are well educated and speak English...Rodent news: A national pest control company just released its list of the 10 most rat-infested cities in America.  Those meanies at RedState note that nine of the cities are controlled by Democrats. Dallas, a Republican-run city, came in at No. 9.  NYC ranks No. 1 on the list and I can personally attest to the accuracy of that claim....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

If Not for Fox News, We May Not Know About Bias

source: Conservative View from NH

In the news business, there is opinion, and there is fact, and the two should never be blurred. In the case of the mainstream media, the bias is obvious and complicit. They are an arm of the Democratic Party, and the agenda always wins out over fact. FOX has given viewers a choice, and the numbers do not lie.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Greecing a palm: U.S. ambassador to Greece and plastic surgery survivor Kimberly Guilfoyle has landed in hot water thanks to a devastating Wall Street Journal investigation two days ago. The page one article charged that Guilfoyle, Don Jr.’s ex-fiancée, and a staunch POTUS ally, pushed a wealthy donor to wire her $100,000 to pay off a large Amex bill.  This is a headache Trump doesn’t need now with the midterms less than a month away....Ready, Aim, Fire! Pete “Hairgel” Hegseth must be dramatically increasing his daily testosterone intake because he’s clearly going into masculine overdrive.  Yesterday, the macho-posturing Sec. of Defense  announced that former Army officer Nidal Hasan, would be put to death by firing squad (!!) and the execution would be live streamed (!!) for everyone to see on a platform to be named. (Major detail, BTW) Hasan was convicted for the 2009 mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, in which he killed 13 people and wounded 32 others.  Hegseth must think he’s living in 18th century London when executions of criminals were regularly held in town squares as a show of state power, according to the London Museum. Wonder if the Trump-controlled Truth Social would want to be Hegseth’s streaming partner....Weekend Watch: HBO Max’s War is a twisty, eight-part divorce drama set among the London elite.  I’m not usually a fan of domestic dramas, but after two episodes I’m hooked. Also See-Worthy: If you remember acerbic comedian Dennis Miller’s early aught’s stint as a commentator for ABC’s “Monday Night Football,” the 30-minute documentary Miller Night Football will put a smile on your face....In recognition of Columbus Day, TheRighting will not publish Monday. We’ll be back in your inbox Tuesday....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

As one watches the footage of students swarming the streets, seemingly with impunity, one has to wonder how the civilization that gave the world Voltaire, Rousseau, Camus and the free public school arrived at a place where schools can burn amid a movement demanding better schools.

MAGA Won’t Die When Trump Leaves Office

source: PJ Media

The Left has a comforting little mantra that they're spreading like fertilizer. "When Trump leaves, MAGA goes with him." All they have to do is wait for one man to leave the stage, and the inconvenient voters will come to their senses, apologize, and resume voting for the people who made them angry in the first place.

Christa Pike and the Left’s Incoherent Argument Against “Human Cruelty”

What Christa Pike endured is unfortunate. She’s a human being too. But then, so was her victim, 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer, who she beat to death so violently that a Tennessee Grounds Department employee thought she was the carcass of a ravaged animal.  So you can understand why some Tennessee residents are shocked by the outpouring of sympathy for the woman responsible.

She must be put to death for the murder of Colleen Slemmer. When Tennessee tries again to do so, it should spare us all the indignity of another lethal injection attempt.Dust off Old Sparky — or Old Smokey, as the electric chair is known.

The comic propagandist routinely misinforms viewers, and this week he marked Fox News’ 30-year anniversary by savaging the channel. And he used the same tired arguments against the successful channel. Fox News divides America. It makes viewers angry. Let’s call his rant what it is — nuclear-level projection.
