TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The ultra-right Victory Girls gave a big thumbs up to the Rededicate 250 prayer event in Washington over the weekend.  The  gathering, tied to the nation’s 250 anniversary, was held on the National Mall and featured an unsettling mix of Christian nationalism and MAGA politics. Among those who addressed the throng: Donald Trump (via video), J.D. Vance, Sec. of State Marco Rubio, and SecDef Pete “Hairgel” Hegseth. “Celebrating and worshiping how we choose isn’t icky White Christian Nationalism,” opines Victory Girls contributor Nina Bookout. “It is our First Amendment in action.” The headline of the iconic progressive publication Mother Jones captured why so many U.S. citizens see the event as a threat to democracy: Trump Begins Framing America’s 250th Anniversary as a Christian Celebration...Dept. of No Surprises:  A NewsBusters study of “Saturday Night Live’s” just concluded season found that 91%  of “Weekend Update jokes targeted the right. The study found that 81% of characters lampooned in the show’s cold opens were Trump 2.0 looney luminaries.  Those most mocked included, The Donald, Kristi Noem, and RFK Jr... Agree! Jesse Wegman’s NY Times op-ed argues that “three decades on the Supreme Court is too long.” (Looking at you Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito)...Another reason to lose sleep: Admiral Brian Christine, Trump administration cast member in charge of hantavirus response, is a penile implant specialist.  Christian, whose title is Assistant Secretary of Health for the DHS, once hosted a YouTube show called “Erection Connection,” reports People.com.  Trump undoubtedly likes him because of his colorful track record of pro-conspiracy remarks, that probably help boost the president's drooping popularity.  I’ll leave it to ChatGBT or Jimmy Kimmel to come up with sophomoric penile implant jokes...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Liberals Disappointed to Learn Transgender Man’s Stabber Is Black

source: FrontPage

The media and the usual activists were very excited when a University of Seattle student, who is a man, but claimed to be a woman, got stabbed to death. Not because you know the media wants transgender people to be murdered, but because it would be a politically useful story.

source: Hollywood in Toto

While Stephen Colbert is being feted for his “truth-telling” decade at CBS’s “The Late Show,” Maher actually did something about this rise in bigotry. His May 15 “Real Time with Bill Maher” monologue skewered anti-Israel rage. No punches pulled.

Nothing Says America 250 Like Having the Two Top Gun Movies Back in Theaters

source: The Federalist

The Top Gun movies evoke the patriotic fervor that comes with America’s 250 celebration. They give us an appreciation for the U.S. service members who put on the uniform and take on risky jobs like these to continue defending the God-given freedoms the founding generation bled and died for.

NBC Miscasts CBS Ownership as Partisan Actor as Colbert Eulogies Begin

source: NewsBusters

In an effort to cast Stephen Colbert as a martyr for free speech ahead of the imminent cancellation of The Late Show, NBC’s Sunday Today sought to cast the owner of CBS’s parent company as "a prominent Trump supporter.” Except that this isn’t true.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The conservative-leaning Campus Reform has developed a list of universities that are holding private graduation ceremonies for illegal alien students.  According to Campus Reform, many of these institutions are restricting attendance in the ceremonies to approved guests and keeping the location of the event a secret to the public.  Among the universities that are holding what’s termed “Undocugraduation” events are: University of Washington, California State University Long Beach, and Rutgers (Newark)...Business news: Salem Media, a leading multi-platform media company focusing on Christian and conservative content, announced last week that it will be acquired by Waterstone, a company that helps donors contribute non-cash assets like real estate into a Christian-oriented fund to receive an immediate tax deduction. No immediate word on how this transaction will impact Salem’s holding in media like podcasting, where voices like CNN’s Scott Jennings and Lara Trump are featured, radio and publishing, including assets like Townhall and RedState...Sanity Alert! Trump has posted at least a dozen violent and bizarre images on Truth Social in the last 24 hours.  One features him walking with a handcuffed alien (like from outer space) and a few others depict him sitting in front of a high-tech control console blasting missiles from sky.  Completely bonkers...Dem congressional candidate in Michigan, Shelby Campbell, is drawing fire from the right for a video showing her twerking on her kitchen counter.  The Daily Wire describes the video as “twerking her way onto the campaign trail”...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Blue Cities Like Portland Prioritize the Antisocial Over the Law-Abiding

source: Daily Signal

Like many of America’s once-great metropolises, Portland, Oregon, has seen better days. Drug-addled homeless continue to ravage the streets, and businesses have left for greener pastures. The reason Portland has become such a disaster is simple: It prioritizes the needs of its most destructive residents over those who follow the law.

NYC Must Be Part of the ’26 and ’28 Plan

source: Conservative View from NH

New York City has gone far left and elected a self-proclaimed Socialist as Mayor. Zohran Mamdani has taken the reins of The Big Apple and is quickly watching it rot away. In five short months, Mamdani has done enough damage to the city that it will take decades to correct, if ever

Spencer Pratt Is Showing Conservatives How It’s Done in His Bid to Become LA Mayor

Whatever the fate of Pratt’s campaign, he has hit on a messaging strategy that right-wing candidates would do well to emulate going forward if they want to be successful in the digital age.

The Left Wanted the Culture War They’re Now Losing

source: American Spectator

A long time ago, the 20th Century, Hollywood knew how to make movies that entertained and enlightened. Their writers weren’t young saps indoctrinated by academia-boosted French Theory with disdain for more than half the audience, or DEI hires filling a quota.

Kamala’s Dangerous Brainstorm

source: American Spectator

Her ideas suggest that the Democratic Party can’t be trusted with real power until it is divested of the radical leftists who now control its agenda. All of the braying about “our democracy” notwithstanding, it could hardly be more obvious that the Democrats want to eliminate the constitutional foundations of the Republic so they can establish one-party rule.

Anthony Fauci Can’t Escape His “Origin”al Covid Lie

source: NY Post

Dr. Anthony Fauci deserves to be indicted — but he probably won’t be, because his role in the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic that he fought so hard to cover up opens a can of worms that nobody wants to confront.
