Greetings! Dept. of Good News:  Yesterday I noted receiving a record  number of unsubscribes. That was a bummer. But today, I’m happy to report that many of you made unsolicited donations to our coffers.  Frankly, I’m extremely humbled by the support, generosity and belief in the mission of TheRighting. Anyone else who’d like to contribute to keep TheRighting’s beacon shining a light on right wing media, please visit our  Donation page…Funniest right wing headline of the week, courtesy of the Babylon Bee: Biden Calls Trump to Concede Election…Wondering if the political text-messaging assault will finally stop.  I may vote for any candidate in 2028 who promises an end to the spam bombardment...If things start to go fatally sideways during Donald  Trump's second White House occupancy, here’s a roundup of the 10 best survival magazines for doomsday preppers, including  Offgrid and Ballistic magazine. For serious survivalists, I  recommend Auerbach’s Outdoor Medicine by the renowned Dr. Paul Auerbach…Weekend Watch: Endurance now streaming on Hulu.  In compelling fashion, the documentary revisits legendary explorer Ernest Shackelton’s survival tale, chronicling his dangerous search for the South Pole, only to have his ship, the Endurance, crushed by polar ice. Shackelton’s  story of resilience resonates especially today in its depiction of how hope and courage can triumph against adversity, even when all seems lost…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

The Trans Issue Is a “Drag” on the Ticket: Dems Lost It With Walz

source: PJ Media

Under Tim Walz’s watch, Minnesota became a “trans refuge” state. Now, even if a judge from another state determines that a parent has the right to decide what kind of medical care their child receives, Minnesota law ignores the judge and proceeds instead with their own “gender-affirming care.”

Dems Became the Party of Controlling Scolds and Lost

source: Newsmax

By Lanny Davis: It’s time we liberal Democrats faced up to the truth. We have become the party of intolerance and shaming, and a lot of ordinary Americans who once reliably voted Democratic and shared our Franklin Roosevelt-era liberalism that viewed government as a force for good now look at us as out-of-touch elites.

The Death of Obamaism

Republicans Are Showing the Democrats What Joy Looks Like

When Trump came millimeters from being a new verse along with Abraham, Martin, and John, the Right knew that there was a higher power watching over them. There is no other explanation for Trump turning his head and losing a piece of his ear and not his brain.

The outcome of the Tuesday vote represents a significant blow to the climate agenda in California and reveals how left-wing activists are struggling to persuade even the most liberal communities to embrace harsh climate measures.

Democrat Introspection? Don’t Count on It

source: Victory Girls

One might think that after almost nine years of relentless “resistance” against Trump — lawfare, violent protests, FBI raid (including the fondling of Melania’s underwear), and including two assassination attempts — that only resulted in Trump’s reelection by large margins, would result in a moment of pause and reflection. One would be wrong.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Yesterday’s newsletter set two records. One bad, one good.  First, the election results triggered the largest number of one day unsubscribes in TheRighting’s seven-year history by a wide margin.  My guess is these subscribers understandably can’t take the rhetoric from the right anymore along with the grim reality of the next four years.  As one reader told me, “What you do is so important.  I just have to shut down the poison from the right. Reading the headlines in the email today physically hurt.” Another subscriber simply stated, “I have to limit my news consumption for the sake of my health. I’m sorry.”  On the flip side, I received a record number of emails thanking me for the work I’m doing and encouraging me to keep on Righting. From time to time, I toy with the idea of halting publication (or selling), but earth-shaking events like Tuesday’s election keep me in the game…Yesterday, a distraught pre-school principal send me this note and I want to share part of it with you: “Given my past life as the head of a school for children, it feels like the school bully just punched all the nice kids in the gut after telling us we were all dumb as hell and just plain trash, as all the other kids cheered.  Feels like the principal got punched too, as well as all of the teachers who tried so hard to instill values of kindness and the golden rule. Feels pretty awful”…It’s 1460 days until the 2028 White House race. Readers, pace yourselves. It’s gonna be a long four years, but I’m with you on this journey….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.  Howard

Election Results Were Only a Shock to Smug Elites
