TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Dept. of Grassy Knolls: FrontPage wonders who ordered the hit last month on Donald Trump.  “The evidence that the assassination attempt took place with the collusion of its top officials is mounting up,” FrontPage’s Robert Spencer wrote without offering any evidence… Hollywood in Toto charges Rosie O’Donnell with spreading “insane Trump conspiracy” theories about the attempt on The Donald’s life. “She suggested the event was staged to make him look heroic,” writes Christian Toto.  “Why else would he pop up after being hit and raise his fist in the air?” Toto believes O’Donnell is taking verbal aim at Trump because the Bedminster Bloviator has a long history of sending nasty insults her way…Toldja: A month ago The Righting  predicted traffic to news sites would rise in July in the wake of the Trump assassination attempt and Joe  Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 White House race.  Our research released this morning from TheRighting shows a majority of the news websites we track on both sides of the aisle generated significant audience increases from July 2023 to July 2024.  Even Trump-controlled Truth Social had a record-breaking traffic boost from the dramatic July news cycle…I’m grabbing a fishing pole and heading to the ocean tomorrow to get an early start on the long weekend so TheRighting won’t be in your inbox Friday.  Wishing you all a peaceful Labor Day weekend. We’re going to need all the rest we can get to face the next 68 days till November election. See you in September. …If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.  Howard

JD Vance Is Crushing It as Trump’s Running Mate

source: Townhall

By Kurt Schlichter: The Democrats may think he's weird, or at least claim he is, but that's only because they are weirdos. JD doesn't think that women can become men, nor does he think that socialism is the answer, nor does he create elaborate reasons for dodging his duty – when duty called, JD Vance, unlike Tim Walz, didn't let it go to voicemail. He’s normal. Like us

The Adept Mr. Vance

He hasn’t made a misstep.

As students return to campus, one thing is already clear: the Left’s radical pro-Hamas activists are back, determined to push their pro-terror agenda and disrupt campus life once more.

Are You Sure an American Holocaust Couldn’t Happen?

source: Washington Examiner

Radical prosecutors are subordinating law enforcement to leftist ideology and ignoring crimes committed by favored groups, such as illegal immigrants. At the same time that America’s commitment to the rule of law has weakened, it has also become harder to say with conviction that the nation is strong, or to disbelieve in the possibility of national disaster

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Trump is practically begging visitors on his website for campaign contributions.  The home page copy reads, “PLEASE please give just $10 to STAND WITH TRUMP ASAP”… The Federalist CEO Sean Davis has a bone to pick with Kamala Harris about the interview she and running mate Tim Walz are doing with CNN’s Dana Bash tomorrow night. “Joe Biden can’t get into a car or up a flight of stairs without a handler, and apparently Kamala Harris can’t even talk to a CNN reporter by herself.  Embarrassing,” Davis  tweeted…The University of Colorado  has appointed a “conservative thought professor” at the famously progressive school.  Prof. Patrick Deneen’s reading list for students in his class includes works by Leo Strauss, Allan Bloom, Wendell Berry, Matthew Crawford, Robert Nisbet and Christopher Lasch. (The College Fix)… Serious concerns continue to be raised from the right about Trump’s campaign appearances that have become increasingly erratic since Joe Biden exited the White House sweepstakes.  The Daily Caller urges the Bedminster Bloviator  to stop with the tired schoolyard name calling schtick before it’s too late. “Trump can’t beat Harris with insults,” advises writer J.D. Foster.  Agreed! … Just in time for back to school shopping!  Tucker Carlson has opened an online store, but you’re going to have to open your wallet wide to order anything.  T-shirts start at $30, and hats, including a MAGA red one emblazoned with Carlson’s mug, sell for $32. There’s even a Kid Rock collection offering two types of t-shirts….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Gold Star Families Still Have Not Heard from Biden or Kamala
