TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Phrase of the week: Constitutional crisis…Question of the week: If the executive branch of our federal government has essentially neutered the legislative branch and ignores the judicial branch, are we still living in a democracy? The answer seems painfully obvious. With apologies to The Washington Post’s famous slogan, democracy is not dying in darkness, but in broad daylight and on prime time television…The Daily Wire’s star podcaster Ben Shapiro has ramped up his efforts pushing for a pardon for Derek Chauvin, the Minnesota police officer who was found guilty in the murder of George Floyd in the spring of 2020.  Earlier this week, Shapiro’s podcast kicked off the new series The Case for Derek Chauvin, which he bills as the “most important multi-part series this company has ever produced.” New episodes drop every Tuesday and Thursday. Shapiro also provides a link to Derek Chauvin’s legal defense fund…Outkick claims that Michelle Obama’s new podcast is already a disaster.  “Despite an all-out media campaign to get attention, she's not really moving the needle. Her most-watched video is at 265,000 (views). No other video comes close,” wrote reporter David Hookstead. “It has ticked upward since its launch, but that's not good for someone with her level of fame and media backing.” The “IMO” program launched earlier this month and is co-hosted with Michelle's brother Craig Robinson…And finally, birthday greetings to my twin sister today.  For some reason, I’ve never failed to send her best wishes on this special day…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

The Race for a Second-Worst Party

By Karl Rove: Resistance sings to the souls of left-wing Democrats. But it’s a dead end. Wiser Democrats know their party must pivot in word, deed and tone to a more centrist, constructive approach.

Anti-Trump De Niro Is Box Office Poison

source: Hollywood in Toto

The star’s latest film, “The Alto Knights,” is expected to bomb this weekend with a $2-3 million haul from 2,800 screens. That’s a far cry from the film’s $45 million budget. It’s disastrous, and there’s no one to blame but De Niro.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! As we approach April Fool’s Day, this headline from the right wing The Babylon Bee seems appropriate: “Federal Judge Orders Astronauts to Be Returned to Space Station.” With acid-dipped tongue planted in cheek, the piece proclaims: “A district judge has issued a ruling saying Trump lacked the Constitutional authority to pick up two astronauts who have been stranded at the International Space Station for several months. Eyewitnesses say the judge then donned a Keffiyeh and spray painted a Cybertruck while screaming ‘Black Lives Matter’”…Another day and more examples of Rupert-Murdoch-controlled news outlets criticizing Donald Trump’s policies. “Defunding the Voice of America is a win for China and Iran,” assert a Wall Street Journal essay. “Trump, don’t heed the dangerous urge to attack the rule of law,” cautions the NY Post. Worth noting: the prime time hosts of Murdoch’s Fox News are still loud and proud supporters of the Trump 2.0 administration…Since Trump was reelected, I’ve predicted that the upcoming Pride Month would be greatly diminished owing to the political chill blanketing the country. Here’s some solid evidence bolstering my contention: Comcast and Anheuser-Busch have significantly cut their funding for San Francisco’s annual Pride March and Festival at the end of June. (Fox News)…Tucker Carlson predicts that JD Vance will be the 2028 GOP presidential nominee, reports The Gateway Pundit.  I’m simply hoping there will be free and fair elections in four years…Dept. of Irony: A heated clash ensued recently at the U.S. Institute for Peace when Elon Musk’s DOGE stooges attempted to enter the organization’s building.  Police were called in. (USA Today)…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Tesla’s Cybertruck Is an American Icon

The Cybertruck is an oxymoron. It’s clunky, but it rides smoothly. It’s a car, but it’s a computer. It’s technologically advanced, but it’s designed with childish simplicity. Behind its stoic exterior lies traditional American curiosity.
