Greetings and say hello to October.  For the record, I don’t eat anything pumpkin-flavored this month or ever.  And I assure you, my distaste predates the political ascendance of our pumpkin-skinned POTUS...Quite a hair-raising address Donald Trump uncorked on the military’s top brass at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia yesterday.  Hard to choose the most alarming statement from his unhinged hour-plus rant. He dangled the possibility of nuclear war, boasting that “we have more (nuclear weapons) than anyone else.” Trump floated using major Democrat-controlled cities as warfare training grounds for the military. He called U.S. inner city residents “animals” and  journalists  “sleazebags.”  His full spiel along with Sec. of War Pete “Hairgel” Hegseth’s opening act tirade can be seen here. Worth noting: Trump uses the politically incorrect term “paddy wagon,” rightfully considered a slur against  Irish-Americans...Commander-in-Chief for Life: Last night, The Donald posted photos of “Trump 2028” baseball caps on his Oval Office desk (Truth Social).... According to the Daily Wire, which claims this exclusive story from last week, the man  who was just found guilty for the thwarted 2022 attempt to kill Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh identifies as a transgender woman...BTW:  the Daily Wire has announced the expansion of its editorial team with the hiring of three reporters, including one journo focused on  all-important Texas. That seems smart...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Greetings! Dept. of Hyperbole: In his opening remarks yesterday about a possible peace plan for Gaza, President Trump called it “potentially one of the great days ever in civilization.” If it comes to pass, it would be a remarkable achievement, so let’s leave it at that.  Mr. Modesty also added that if the peace plan is accepted by both sides, Gaza would be overseen by what he calls a Board of Peace. Trump will oversee the board.  However, he went out of his way to emphasize that Arabs, Israelis and “everybody involved” asked him to be in charge.  “I’m very busy, but we have to make sure this works,” he said. sounding surprisingly defensive. Here’s the full transcript of his remarks...Worst Trump Truth Social post ever? Take a look at this 30-second AI-generated video of a Sen. Chuck Schumer standing next Sen. Hakeem Jeffries (in a fake-looking sombrero) that Trump posted last night. An obviously digitally altered Schumer says, “We have no votes left because of all our woke bulls***...So we need new voters, and if we give all these illegal aliens free health care, we might be able to get them on our side so they can vote for us. They can’t even speak English so they won’t realize we’re just a bunch of woke pieces of s***.” Truly despicable, but I’m sure it won’t be the worst thing he posts this year because no matter how low he goes, he always goes lower....If you keep reading ,I’ll keep Righting.
