Greetings! Make America jog again?  Breitbart.com is running a banner ad for Black MAGA Shoes which was advertised as “must have a collectible item for every Trump supporter.”  In true Trump merch fashion, the sneakers cost $179, a high price for such an ugly shoe. Sporting a garish stars and stripes motif, the running shoes feature a silhouette of a man holding a rifle in firing position, along with other soldiers and for good measure, what appears to be a military vehicle.  Patriots Inspired, the manufacturer, claims Trump is not affiliated with the footwear…Boo! Steve Bannon has been released from the slammer just in time for Halloween….The Daily Signal claims Kamala Harris has an indirect connection to the Menendez brothers’ case… Good News for Bruce Springsteen fans: Jeremy Allen White will portray the rock superstar (and  vocal Kamala Harris supporter ) in a biopic now in production, according to multiple reports… NewsBusters has compiled a comprehensive list of the “all-time, worst celebrity tirades against Donald Trump.” Famous “offenders” include Stephen Colbert,  Peter Fonda, Linda Ronstadt and “Seinfeld’s” Jason Alexander…Dept. of Confessions: I don’t eat or drink anything pumpkin-flavored this Halloween time of year nor do I consort with  anyone who does.  Does that make me un-American?...Here’s a phrase I don’t need to hear any more in 2024 from political pundits: saying the quiet part out loud…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.  Howard

To paraphrase the late great Texas pundit Molly Ivins, covering Pat Buchanan’s abhorrent 1992 GOP convention address: It sounded a lot  better in the original German…Comic Tony Hinchcliffe was the worst of the rally’s speakers with his racist routine.  Here’s just one sample: “These Latinos, they love making babies too.  There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country.” (Read full transcript of his speech.) I agree with the National Review’s assessment that Hinchcliffe didn’t do Trump “any favors”…I watched the rally at the ultra-right RSBN.  The stream was sponsored by The Wellness Company that hawks Ivermectin, which the Right has embraced as a drug to combat the effects of Covid-19, despite respected medical opinion, such as the Mayo Clinic which warns the drug  could cause serious harm...Tucker Carlson’s vile comments about Democrats needing a spanking from big daddy Donald Trump managed to even trigger the Baptist News. The fundamentalist news outlet’s publisher Mark Wingfield posted an opinion piece under the provocative headline: Tucker Carlson is a danger to American families.  “Taken as a metaphor for Trump returning to the White House, it’s clear Carlson is endorsing Trump’s pledge to weaponize the Justice Department and courts to go after his own political enemies. They are the ones who need to be spanked hard by Daddy Donald,” writes Wingfield…Last Week’s Craziest Headline: Townhall’s The Media Are the Scum of the Earth.
