TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! If you missed yesterday morning’s 45-minute press briefing by SecDef Pete Hegseth and General Dan Caine, you can watch it on YouTube. The jittery Hegseth looked and acted especially oily, like he slathered on an extra application of hair gel. He oozed arrogant false bravado. While crowing about the dominance of the U.S. military in the conflict, he said, “God deserves all the glory,” which made me wince.  His counterpart, Gen. Dan Caine, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, projected calmness and sanity. However, after reading Tuesday’s superb investigative NY Times article about how Trump took the U.S. to War in February, the General came off as wishy washy and unable to advocate a position for or against going to war...RFK Jr. is getting into the podcast game. Yesterday afternoon, the head of the Dept. of Health and Human Services announced on X that his program will be launching soon. Its name: “The Secretary Kennedy Podcast.” Yawn. Little was disclosed about the focus of the program...NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo and guest Bill O’Reilly got into a heated on-air exchange last night regarding Iran’s nuclear capability.  Cuomo ended the scuffle by reminding the disgraced former Fox News anchor that it was his show and he could take a hike if he didn’t like it. My question: why is Cuomo even legitimizing O’Reilly by having him on his prime time program? The NY Post has more details...Amanda Carpenter, former staffer for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), revealed on X yesterday that she read the novel American Psycho. “Imagine my surprise to find that the lead sociopathic character idolizes Donald Trump,” she wrote. “The book mentions Trump dozens of times.” Not a surprise to me!...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Calm down, Chicken Littles.

By All Means, Let the War Crimes Trials Begin

source: American Greatness

Trump’s critics cry “war crimes” while ignoring decades of U.S. precedent—revealing less a legal argument than a reflexive, and deeply selective, political outrage.

Nothing Has Changed for Lefty Film Director Michael Moore

He still to this day maintains a credibility level roughly on par with Gas Station sushi and that email from the Nigerian prince offering you several million dollars, if you could give him your bank account number so he could deposit it. Mysteriously, the left still takes him seriously.

NFL Head Coach Caught on Camera in “Intimate Moments” with Married Leftist NYT Reporter

The head coach of the New England Patriots, Mike Vrabel, was photographed with a married reporter tied to far-left The New York Times. The photos show the married Patriots boss hugging, holding hands and relaxing in a hot tub alone with Dianna Russini, a reporter for The Athletic (the sports arm of the failing New York Times).

Once Respected NFL Coach Might Have Ruined His Life Over a Female Reporter

It’s likely this was just an innocent interaction, and the tabloids are turning it into something that it is not. Regardless, the fact that people are talking about it is an incredibly bad look for Vrabel.

The Democrats have done their best to hide the data, but it is possible to use available information to extrapolate just how bad illegal alien crime is.

Why did we stop going to the moon? Well, the short and most direct and correct answer is liberalism. The early stirrings of "Woke."

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Nailed it! Politico has the newsletter subject line of the day on the 11th hour ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran: “Better TACO Tuesday Than World War III.”  ICYMI: TACO is shorthand for “Trump always chickens out”...Book news: Get ready for Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump by NY Times scoopmeisters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan.  The book focuses on the first year of Trump’s second presidency (although I’m not sure I want to relive it. PTSD etc).  “Regime Change” drops June 16, two days after The Donald’s 80th birthday, and just in time for Father’s Day gifts...The National Pulse has a long list of possible candidates that Trump might name to replace his recently fired Attorney General Pam Bondi.  Among those players being considered to become the newest Trump White House cast member: Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO); Mark Whitaker, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations;  Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton; U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro; Counselor to the President Alina Habba, and Todd Blanche, Acting U.S. Attorney General and former Trump defense attorney.  Altogether, there are 23 names on the Pulse list ...."The Charlie Kirk Show,” the podcast of the popular right-wing activist who was slain last September, is one of the fastest-growing right-wing podcasts, according to TheRighting’s just released research. The show, now hosted by producer Andrew Kolvet, drew nearly 30,000 new subscribers in the first quarter. Ultra-right looney Candace Owens’ program ranked as the fastest-growing podcast on my list for the second quarter in a row.  I shudder to think about what that says about certain factions in our country....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

No, Trump Is Not Committing War Crimes

source: Washington Examiner

Still, the accusation of war crimes, now accepted as fact by the New York Times among others, is ignorant, hypocritical, and overblown.  

Donald Trump, War Criminal?

The “war crime” outcry is simply another collaboration between America’s enemies, the media, and the Democrat Party

Trump Ignores Experts’ “War Crimes” Bluster and We Should Too

source: NY Post

Leftist experts, as usual, are reacting viscerally to Trump’s heated rhetoric — but while his language gets a lot of attention, it’s not a crime.

While Critics Root Against America, the U.S. Military Delivers

source: SteveGruber.com

As critics rushed to declare defeat, a high-risk U.S. military operation delivered a decisive win—rescuing American pilots, striking enemy leadership, and forcing Iran to rethink its position

The Left Is Livid That Trump Got a Win in Iran

source: Victory Girls

Bless their ugly black hearts. The Left is spitting mad that both airmen from the F15-E were rescued in Iran without any Jimmy Carter-like catastrophes and deaths
