TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! And welcome to Pride Month.  Here’s an original take on the January 6 insurrection that seems especially appropriate for the start of the rainbow month.  One of the hosts of the comedic  “Subway Takes” YouTube channel proclaims J6 was the gayest thing he ever saw.  In the latest segment, he says, “You’ve got all these men standing around the Capitol.  A lot of them shirtless in costumes and face paint.  That’s a gay pride parade.”  Hahahahahaha! Well said.  He also believes that Pride Month should only last a week, which is probably seven days too long for a certain Village People-fan demonically dancing in the Oval Office. Worth noting: The Victory Girls blog also has issues with the 30 days of celebration.  “The birth of this nation gets one day of celebration, LGBTQ+ gets a whole month,” wrote Darlene Click...Public broadcasting needs to do a better job proving its value in the court of public opinion.  So says long-time media thought-leader Stuart Brotman in this essay for Current.  Brotman lists four excellent messaging points that should be amplified on social media to make the pro-public broadcasting case.  His top suggestion: “Public broadcasting has set new standards in children’s news programs, drama, music, science and educational services”...Dept. of Good News: Netflix announced that the final season of the hit supernatural series Stranger Things begins November 26.  And the last episode drops December 31.  I know what I’ll be watching this New Year’s Eve...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! More Pride Month backlash (and it’s not even June yet). The Daily Caller dropped a snarky article pointing out that Washington’s Reagan National Airport is celebrating Pride Month “amid recent safety concerns following a deadly crash and other incidents.” The subtext?  The airport is spending more time promoting Pride Month than on safety...Elon Musk saw the handwriting on the White House wall and knew it was time to get out of DOGE. Trump is holding a press conference today at 1:30 EST to acknowledge the erratic gazillionaire’s selfish service to our nation.  Worth noting: NY Times’ Michelle Goldberg has an insightful column detailing  Musk’s reign of terror and error. Her most recent op-ed cites his legacy of “disease, starvation and death.” I’m with Goldberg on this DOGE damage assessment...Dept. of Corrections: Yesterday I erroneously wrote that RFK demanded that government-funded scientists not publish their research in several respected medical journals. I should have written that he threatened to prevent them from publishing...Weekend Watch: The Netflix three-parter The Tylenol Murders looks back at the 1982 deaths of seven people from taking cyanide-laced Tylenol capsules. The horrifying whodunnit tale had me hooked from the first frames (the murderer has never been found). Check it out and if you have a headache afterwards, my advice is to reach for an Advil...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Anyone Ripping Elon Musk for DOGE Is a Terrible American and Unhinged

source: Outkick

The liberals are way too excited about Elon Musk exiting his role within the Trump Administration. Make no mistake about it, these loony libs would rather have their hard-earned tax dollars continued to be abused by our government than dare give Elon Musk any credit whatsoever as we continue to live in a bizarro world.

Congress Must Ensure DOGE’s Work Not Done in Vain

source: Newsmax

The brief DOGE experiment, which uncovered tens of thousands of combined government contract and grant terminations that would shock the conscience of most Americans with any inclination toward sound fiscal stewardship, is proof that such a "woke and weaponized bureaucracy" isn't merely speculative — it really exists.

The Trump Administration Shouldn’t Stop with Harvard

source: Washington Examiner

Last week’s cowardly murders of two Israeli Embassy staff members by a man shouting “free, free Palestine” are not an isolated tragedy. It is the inevitable result of a campus culture that has mainstreamed hatred, glorified violence, and normalized antisemitic incitement. Nowhere is this rot more concentrated than in the rarefied air of the Ivy League

Trump Is Emasculating the Deep State

Trump could shut down the NSC entirely and nothing would be missed. The Deep State no longer protects Americans against foreign enemies, but instead protects the bureaucracy against the will of the American People.

The president should allow this obscure, but important trade court — the International Court of Trade — have its day in the sun and move on with more pressing matters, like deregulation and drilling, which has created more jobs than those shirt factories lost to China.

It’s Not Easy Being Michelle Obama

source: Victory Girls

If there wasn’t a moment in time where Michelle Obama proved to the world how insufferable she really is, then, that time is now. Michelle went on the record on her flop podcast to say that is SO HARD to be married to a famous man. The perils of being married to the messiah are real. This is “real-world” struggle for Michelle Obama.

The Sexual Revolution Enslaved Us

As Christians, we must resist the temptations surrounding us on every screen and scroll. We must see how broken the porn industry is — and how broken it makes those who produce and consume it. Pornography and casual sex will never satisfy.
