TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The MAGA began exactly a decade ago today when the bloviating billionaire reality-TV star descended the escalator of Trump Towers and declared his presidential  candidacy.  Townhall remembers the day calling it the “golden escalator to the golden years.” (Gag)...The dictatorial bromance is back on: Vladimir Putin called Donald Trump Saturday to wish him happy birthday, according to Truth Social... Blood pressure alert! This American Spectator article really got my blood boiling.  It states unequivocally that the “riots in Los Angeles were more protracted and destructive than the January 6th  riot in DC”...Oops! During Newsmax’s coverage of Trump’s poorly-attended multi-million-dollar  military parade, I noticed that Sec. of State Marco Rubio was incorrectly identified as a senator...Trump shamefully gave only the most perfunctory tick-the-box statement about the shootings of two Democratic lawmakers and their spouses in Minnesota on Saturday. The two murders and ensuing manhunt probably irked him for overshadowing his birthday...Several readers sent me images from the protests that also upstaged Trump’s autocratic military parade in DC for his 79th birthday.  The images are posted here.  Special thanks to contributors Arthur Ahrens, Catherine Chayka, Wayno Guerrini, Sean Myers, Kitty Nicholason, Connie Sax, Joseph Stricker, David Zylber and Emily Zylber.  My favorite sign had these words next to an image of Trump: “Does this ass (arrow pointing at POTUS) make my country look small?”...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

“No Kings” Protestors Chose Violence

According to the “No Kings” protestors, it is Donald Trump and J.D. Vance who are bringing violence down upon this Republic. Which is interesting, because there wasn’t any violence from those attending our Army’s 250th Birthday. Instead, the violence was in Portland, Los Angeles, and elsewhere from “No Kings” protestors themselves.

“Signs” of the Times: Images from the No Kings Rallies

Millions of Americans took to the streets in the No Kings demonstrations that stretched across the country on Saturday, June 14.  Several readers of TheRighting sent in images from rallies they attended and here are just a few of the more colorful ones we received. The demonstrations, as these images show, were peaceful.

There are no kings in California, just government bureaucrats who were able to rule more ruthlessly than most kings and forbid even the most ordinary average everyday activities like going to the beach or meeting up with family members or going to school.

Leftists Jeer US Army’s 250th Birthday Parade

What should have been a day of unity turned ugly as leftists used the celebration of the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday to mock, jeer and protest. The so-called ‘No Kings’ rallies were ugly, divisive and in some cases included terrorist flags.

The weekend’s grand military parade in Washington to celebrate the Army’s 250th anniversary was a feel-good patriotic triumph and a rebuke to Democrats and their mean-spirited, small-minded anti-Trump protests.

We need to send a message that this kind of anarchy won't be tolerated anymore. We need to ID each and every one of these violent, ignorant ingrates. Then arrest them and deport them.

Rioting Mainly for Fun and Profit

The summer of 2025 has not yet officially begun, but it already looks like another long, hot one. Los Angeles has faced days of anti-ICE protests and rioting, which have spread to dozens of other cities, provoking clashes with local, state, and federal law enforcement.

We Voted to Deport Every Single One of Them

By Kurt Schlichter: We tried tolerance, and 20 million uninvited Third World peasants settled here. It wasn’t just without our permission. It was against our express will, as manifested by our elected representatives passing laws and our elected president signing them.

The Liberal Media’s Trump Authoritarian Fantasy

It’s ridiculous, of course. Trump has been duly elected in a thorough going democratic election - and twice at that. And as with every other President, Trump’s actions as President are subject to checks and balances supplied by the Constitution, the Congress and the Courts.

The Smithsonian Institution Audit Is Only the Start

The Smithsonian has wholeheartedly enlisted in the leftist imperative to “decolonize the American mind” and to change America’s narrative from one that made citizens proud of this nation’s astonishing achievements to a counternarrative that focuses on where America has fallen short and drums shame into citizens.
