TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Things may not be so great at the right-wing website American Greatness.  The site has gone dark and there’s a message that says, “This site is for sale.” When I reached out to American Greatness via X, I was told that the “site is being updated.” Not a good sign...Shortly after Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) announced that he won’t seek reelection in 2026, Lara Trump, the POTUS daughter-in-law and wife of Eric, was mentioned as a possible GOP candidate for the Tar Heel state.  Toni Williams of the Victory Girls blog thinks it’s a bad idea because she’s fervently opposed to political dynasties...According to a NewsBusters study, 99% of late-night comedy guests in the first half of 2025 were left-wing.  The survey revealed that there were appearances by 106 Democrats and liberals, and just one conservative on the late night shows on the three broadcast networks and Comedy Central....Have to agree with this National Review headline: “Even Presidents Have to Obey the Law.” It’s sad that it needs to be stated...Wanna see the worst portrait of Trump ever?  Check out this image of a painting he posted on Truth Social by Christian worship artist Vanessa Horabuena.  It truly looks like the face of evil (or even a cartoon-like blonde James Bond villain)...Dept. of Corrections: The new POTUS fragrance Trump 45-47 sells for $249, not $199 which I wrote yesterday. No matter what the price, his naked ambition to monetize his presidency still stinks...If you keep reading, I’ll keep writing.

For all the fallacies in her Trump v. CASA dissent, Jackson is fulfilling the job she was tasked with: advancing leftist ideology from the bench.

Justice Jackson’s Troubled Close to the 2024 Term

Ketanji Brown Jackson is a justice seeking to establish her legacy. But it is doubtful that her prolific and eccentric performance at the close of the 2024 term has helped her legacy.

That Europe’s leftist-liberals come out in force for both Islamists and the LGBT agenda speaks volumes about their self-destructive incoherence.

Bill Moyers Was the Face of Taxpayer-Funded Propaganda

source: NewsBusters

Moyers was the “signature figure” of everything wrong with “public” broadcasting. He savaged conservatives and also lined his own pockets with revenues of his programs being sold on PBS Home Video. He used his PBS fame to sell expensive coffee-table books, just as Ken Burns does today

Trans people aren't a fringe group in American society: they're the fringe of a fringe. Yet at no time in history has such a small segment of a population commanded so much attention, all they while complaining that it wasn't getting any.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings from California! Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill isn’t the only thing that stinks around his administration. POTUS took time off from his autocratic pursuits yesterday to drop a post on Truth Social promoting Trump Fragrances for men and women.  The product is called Trump 45-47 and each 3.3 ounce bottle sells for a stomach-clenching $199.  However, his e-commerce site needs to be updated.  It features a video touting a previous product “Fight, Fight, Fight” for Christmas...The lefty group, The People’s Union USA, is urging Americans to boycott July 4th festivities.  That doesn’t sit well with the Victory Girls blog.  “Here we go again, another wannabe revolutionary whining in vague slogans with zero receipts to back it up. Not one real example, not one actual freedom under attack. Just empty word salad, designed to sound deep enough for the AOC and Zohran Mamdani fan clubs to nod along like sheep”...Dept. of No Surprises: A new poll from Emerson College predicts J.D. Vance as the clear MAGA successor in 2028. (American Spectator)...Rock music great Elvis Costello has joined the Trump resistance based on a recent performance in Denver. (Hollywood in Toto)...Mommy and daddy are still fighting.  The Trump/Musk feud heats up again.  My dilemma is that I don’t know who to root for.  NBC News has the ugly details....Greenland is interested in becoming part of the United States.  At least according to writer Nick Solheim who spent 24 hours there for The American Conservative... If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Sorry Mamdani-Fearing Dems, Florida Is Full

source: NY Post

By Karol Markowicz: Since Zohran Mamdani won last week’s Democratic primary and put himself in pole position to become New York City’s next mayor, a fresh cohort of Gothamites seems to be eyeing the exit ramp toward the Sunshine State. This Floridian says: Sorry, we’re full.

Did Mamdani Really Say He Was Going to Tax White People?

He certainly did. Apparently, being a Muslim Democrat Socialist allows you to be an overt racist, yet the Muslim community is claiming that any criticism of Mamdani is racist.
