TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Searching for the perfect holiday gift for that MAGA-loving loved one? Consider a wine from the Republican Red Winery.

Time for a National Conversation About Lefty Violence

source: WND

Even before we knew the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was politically motivated, many leftists were justifying, celebrating and rationalizing the shooting. There's a real debate going on in some quarters of the progressive Left over whether slaying CEOs is a bad thing. And it's unsurprising.

Why does it seem that a vengeful bloodlust runs perpetually through progressives? The short answer is that murderous violence in the service of revolutionary justice is the beating heart of Leftism.

Failed Smears of Trump’s Cabinet Picks Proves Biased Media’s Irrelevance

source: NY Post

If legacy media had the influence they once did, one would expect these nominees to have zero shot at being confirmed. But here’s the disconnect: Not one Republican senator is on record saying he or she opposes Gabbard or Hegseth or Patel. Not one.

Journalists Deserve All the Angst That Trump Win Brings

source: NewsBusters

With Trump, they have been like the opposite of the Humpty Dumpty rhyme. The media are all the king’s horses and all the king’s men -- and they couldn’t tear Humpty Dumpty apart. All of their screeching about his menace only makes him successful.

The Evaporation of the Obama Mystique

source: Townhall

Obama emerged from his comfortable retirement to hit the 2024 campaign trail, schooling the country that Trump was a dictator, a fascist, a tyrant, and, of course, a "racist." The more Trump polled even with, or ahead of, Harris, the more an exasperated and ignored Obama talked down to supposedly low-information voters.

Dems Need to Ghost Obama to Stay Relevant

Barack Obama might still be the Democrats’ golden boy, but his gilded touch appears to be tarnishing the party’s future. From identity politics to progressive overreach, the Obama legacy has become an anchor dragging Democrats into political quicksand.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Fox  News is showering praise on Donald Trump’s gatekeeper Natalie Harp.  The right wing news machine’s website published a glowing profile of The  Donald’s 33-year-old assistant, who seems to hold significant sway on who has access to the POTUS-elect. Interesting detail: she received an MBA from Liberty University, a private evangelical institution. Here’s the story (with images)…Dept. of No Surprises, Part I: Time magazine names Trump its person of the Year.  If Kamala Harris won the White House, I’m sure she would have been the choice…Dept. of No Surprises, Part II:  Newsmax names 2024 biggest political losers.  The list includes Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Tim Walz and Attorney General Merrick Garland ... .It's official.  Matt Gaetz will host a 9 PM ET  show on One America News. The ex-Congressman’s program debuts January 2 and will be based primarily in Los Angeles. That will put Gaetz up against Sean Hannity. Good luck with that. (OAN announcement)…Snark attack! The Washington Free Beacon has an article about convicted sex offender and tabloid punchline Anthony Weiner running for a minor NYC council office.  You may recall that Weiner’s ex-wife Huma Abedin was a senior aide to Hillary Clinton.

For once, I agree with Bolton...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Good Riddance to Wray

source: Washington Examiner

Wray has been a dissembler since he took over the bureau in 2017. He came into office promising transparency, candor, competence, depoliticization, and systemic reform. He has produced none of it, acting instead as an obfuscator and excuse-maker.

Bye Bye Wray

Having completed the destruction of the FBI, the Bureau Director leaves the stage.

Christopher Wray Is Preparing to Sabotage Trump and Patel

source: PJ Media

If you assumed Wray’s resignation meant a quiet exit, think again. Reports suggest Wray is actively promoting loyalists within the bureau, embedding establishment figures even deeper into the FBI. The move appears to be a calculated effort to sabotage Patel’s expected plans to overhaul the agency.
