TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The Washington Free Beacon dropped a snarky satire imaging what an early draft of President Biden’s farewell address looked like.  Here’s just a sample: “We oversaw the most successful gender transformation of America since FDR, the invalid war hero.  We endured so that NATO would be part of Finland”…SteveGruber.com suggests without any evidence that there’s trouble in the marriage of Barack and Michelle Obama.  The former first lady’s decision not to attend the Trump inauguration with her husband helped trigger the speculation.  “Then again,” wrote the site’s Liberty Paige,  “does anyone really care about these washed-up, divisive relics of political theater now that we have MAGA on the way to save America?”…Incoming autocrat Donald Trump named over-the-hill stars Mel Gibson, Sylvester Stallone and Jon Voight as his ambassadors to Hollywood, whatever that means. Actor James Woods, one of the entertainment industry’s most vocal conservatives, must be seething with jealously….Dept. of Sticks & Stones: Conservative podcaster Megyn Kelly called Jill Biden a “geriatric mean girl” on her latest program…”Real Time with Bill Maher” returns to HBO tonight for its 23rd season.  Gotta wonder how the outspoken, independently minded comedian will handle references to the Los Angeles fires that have devastated his hometown of Los Angeles.  And will he attack California’s liberal politicians?…Weekend Watch: American Primeval on Netflix.  This action-filled series set in 1850s Utah follows a woman and her crippled son as they trek across the deadly landscape in search of her husband encountering dangers around every corner. It may be too dark and violent for some, especially on the eve of Trump 2.0, but the show’s fast pace, intriguing characters, and magnificent outdoor settings kept me glued…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Starbucks Is No Longer a Homeless Shelter

source: SteveGruber.com

It looks like Starbucks got tired of their stores turning into makeshift homeless shelters. After a 2018 policy that allowed anyone to hang out in their cafes without making a purchase, the coffee giant is now stirring things up with a reversal. In the new Trump era, you’ll need more than free Wi-Fi and a dream to occupy one of their coveted armchairs.

The Shrill Post-Menopausal Scolds of the Senate Were No Match for Pete Hegseth

source: Human Events

Between Gillibrand shrieking at Hegseth that he wasn’t allowed to say such “brutal and mean” things about women in the military, Hirono’s audition to play the prosecutor in the world’s worst Chekhov adaptation, Duckworth’s arrogant and high-handed attempt to humiliate Hegseth over his resume, and Warren’s badgering smugness, America got a veritable buffet menu of loathsome ex-wife archetypes to choose from.

As Commerce Chairman, Ted Cruz Plans to Make Sure Big Tech’s Change of Heart Is Real

Cruz has long accused Big Tech of anti-conservative bias. Now, he’s going to make sure they live up to their word on free speech.

U.S. Doctors Denied Jobs as Foreign Grads Flood Hospitals

America's medical system is failing its own citizens – thousands of qualified, debt-burdened U.S. medical graduates are being denied residency positions every year while taxpayer-funded slots are handed to foreign doctors through exploitative visa programs

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Word of the day:  Oligarchy, which the dictionary defines as (1) government by the few, and  (2) a government in which a small group exercises control especially for corrupt and selfish purposes.  Here’s the full transcript of President Biden’s farewell address last night where he warned of an oligarchy in the United States…Dept. of No Surprises: Right on schedule, Trump takes credit for the Hamas/Israel cease fire.  Here’s his boast that he posted yesterday afternoon on Truth Social: “This EPIC ceasefire agreement could have only happened as a result of our Historic Victory in November, as it signaled to the entire World that my Administration would seek Peace and negotiate deals to ensure the safety of all Americans, and our Allies”… The Los Angeles wildfires have now been branded the “Newsom Fires” by American Thinker.  “He is responsible for a state that did not allocate sufficient money and resources to police and fire departments and preventive fire measures. Newsom is also responsible for always having money for illegal aliens and kowtowing to environmental extremists”…The Washington Examiner is calling for the end to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which was created by President Johnson in the 60s.  The CPB helps fund 1,400 public radio and TV stations…The Federalist lists five reasons why corporate America is abandoning DEI.  Reason #5: DEI doesn’t champion people; it infantilizes them…Will Pam Bondi be the nation’s first Attorney General who wears fake eyelashes.  I’m pretty sure that Bill Barr never wore them….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Biden Tries to Take Credit and a Victory Lap for Hostage Deal

source: Victory Girls

Flanked by Kamala Harris and Antony Blinken as props (also to grab him if he keeled over), Joe Biden shuffled out to declare that this entire deal was due to HIM and HIM ALONE. Not that he can remember the finer details of what the hell this deal is about.

President Trump Secures Gaza Ceasefire Deal

source: DonaldJTrump.com

Make no mistake: it was President Donald J. Trump and his historic electoral victory that drove the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal. President Trump repeatedly said there would be "hell to pay" if the hostages weren't released before he took office — and this agreement is a reflection of President Trump's unwavering commitment to securing America's interests.

Good riddance.

Your Favorite Moment of the Biden Presidency Has Finally Arrived

The East Coast might be invaded by drones. And okay, the West Coast’s on fire. But finally, we can close the page of the Biden presidency. At long last, our favorite moment of the Biden presidency has finally arrived: The end.

No One Will Remember Biden’s Low-Energy, Small-Minded Farewell Address

source: Washington Free Beacon

It was read from a teleprompter (with considerable difficulty) by an 82-year-old man who is clearly unfit to serve another four days in office, let alone the extra four years he felt he deserved.

The Biden Era Wheezes Its Way to a Fittingly Deluded End

Americans will remember nothing about his Oval Office farewell address a day from now. Thus ends the Biden presidency.

Surge in Gays Buying Guns So Trump Can’t Put Them in Concentration Camps

source: Conservative News Zone

Good grief! Someone should tell them that the Village People will be performing at the inauguration. And we even let them have a gay president for eight years.

Who Cares If Michelle Obama Is at Trump’s Inauguration?

source: Townhall

Michelle has likely not been proud of this country since her husband left office because she hates Donald Trump and who in the world could be proud of anything Joe Biden is associated with?

Trump’s Right About Seth Meyers and Late-Night “Comedy” Shows

source: WND

Meyers could easily put his show on MSNBC and no one would be able to tell much difference between his show and Lawrence O'Donnell's. I wouldn't call Meyers "untalented," but most of these late-night hosts strive to be "relevant" in their anti-Republican messaging. Sadly for them, it didn't keep Trump from winning again.

Time for Hollywood Lefties with Trump Derangement Syndrome to Make Good on Vow to Leave the Country

source: Washington Times

Donald Trump will be sworn back into office in days, so presumably, Cher, Streisand, and all of the other Hollywood lefties who vowed to flee the country have by now printed their boarding passes.

These Hearings Are More Retribution Than Confirmation

source: Conservative View from NH

The Democrats have no intention of rubber-stamping Trump’s selections. They will use their time to berate the character and qualifications and remind people of what they had to do in Trump’s first term to keep him under control. They understand their job to confirm, but they will get some retribution.
