Greetings! FoxNews.com published an op-ed by DNC chairman Ken Martin who wrote that Americans are not better off since Trump took office in January.  Martin specifically cites Trump’s focus on golfing and a new White House ballroom as a reason for Trump’s popularity decline... Another Murdoch-controlled outlet also slammed the Trump administration. In a Wall Street Journal column, Jeff Coller blasted Donald Trump’s HHS chief Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s decision to stop funding mRNA respiratory vaccine research and development. “My work began in the days of basic RNA biology, and it has reached to seeing my graduate student help design the Moderna Covid vaccine,” wrote Coller, a professor of biology at Johns Hopkins.  “I’ve watched these discoveries save millions of lives worldwide. Mr. Kennedy’s decision must be reversed”...Is this our nation? Oklahoma now requires teachers from New York and California applying for positions in the Sooner State to pass a certification test to ensure that they support a MAGA curriculum. According to USA Today, that means they agree with “elements of a conspiracy theory  that the Democratic Party stole the 2020 presidential election from President Donald Trump”...It took guts for MSNBC to rename their brand MS NOW (as in My Source News Opinion Now).  Still, it feels like a stretch (or a MS-take).  My first impression was that the progressive news network is competing with a deadly disease for name recognition.  The antiquated MS-DOS operating system popped into my brain too. The new branding may be even worse than MSNBC, one of the worst names for a cable network. The marketing department is facing a huge challenge and conservative critics are salivating....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Greetings! I have a growing fear that Trump’s federalization of the DC police force is much more than a distraction for the Epstein quagmire he finds himself in.  His end game, I suspect, is to roll out more U.S. army units in our cities with the complete cooperation of SecDef “Hairgel” Hegseth until it ends in a violent clash between military forces and demonstrators.  And then, to restore “law and order,” he will declare martial law and midterm elections will be postponed....Trump spent part of Sunday moaning on Truth Social about how the “fake news” media reported dishonestly about his nothingburger of a summit in Alaska with Putin on Friday.  “I had a great meeting in Alaska on Biden’s stupid War, a war that should have never happened!!!” Trump wrote. And of course, he had to get in a gratuitous dig at Joe Biden....Putin has a pen pal at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.  Melania Trump wrote an anodyne note to Vlad urging him to “put children first,” which Trump posted on Truth Social.  Victory Girls termed the note “an artful piece of diplomacy and PR,” which strikes me as a very generous description....Bad news for Elon: The Free Press compared China’s BYD, the world’s best-selling electric vehicle, to a Tesla. The Tesla came out on top, but BYD is quickly closing the gap. Worth noting: half of BYD’s sell for under $25,000....I’ve posted some images from Saturday’s Fight the Trump Takeover rallies.  If you have any photos, please send to me: Howard(AT)TheRighting.com. I’ll post and credit. Be sure to name the location...If you keep reading and protesting, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
