Greetings! The Democratic National Convention opens tonight in Chicago, putting me in a Windy City state of mind. And to help you get in the mood for four nights of political fanfare in Chi-town, here’s a random sampling of songs, books, films and TV that showcase the heart and soul of the City of Big Shoulders: Songs: My Kind of Town, Chicago Is(Frank Sinatra) and Sweet Home Chicago (Blues Brothers version of the Robert Johnson classic);  Books: The Jungle, by Upton Sinclair and Boss: Richard J. Daley of Chicago, by Mike Royko; TV: The Bear; Movies: The Untouchables. And most on point, Medium Cool, filmed during the tumultuous 1968 DNC…Just in time for school! In his latest column, John Stossel, former resident libertarian at Fox Business News and ABC News, is promoting the tome  Lies My Liberal Teacher Taught Me, by Wilfred Reilly…NewsBusters has a bone to pick with the current issue of Time magazine featuring a drawing of Kamala Harris with the cover line “Her Moment.”  They describe Time’s depiction of her as “somewhere between Miss America and a religious icon.”  My issue with the cover is the quality of the artwork because it looks more like an unfinished sketch…Pat Boone just released a new song that should be music to the ears of MAGA-world and a certain resident of Mar-a-Lago.  The title says it all: Where Did America Go?  The 90-year-old crooner, who decades ago was a Top Ten sensation with limp versions of classics by Little Richard and Chuck Berry,  belts out the song draped in a baggy American flag shirt….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Biden Should Resign

America’s adversaries are aware of what Biden’s mental state is. They know he is compromised to the point of being incapable. If a national security emergency were to arise, the president should be able to communicate leadership and direction, a function Biden clearly is no longer able to perform, even between his peak operating hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Trump decided to get help from Tulsi Gabbard because she scorched Harris in a 2019 primary debate where she hammered Harris for jailing hundreds of Californians for weed violations, yet bragged about her own use of the drug. Gabbard’s low opinion of Harris hasn’t changed.

Outkick also offers images of GOP Congresswomen Anna Paulina Luna and Nancy Mace in skimpy swimwear…Word of the day: “Hicklib.”  Politico defines it as “a derogatory term used by some online conservatives to refer to a certain type of rural progressive.” A cousin of the hicklib, per Politico, is the “woke yokel”…The Donald just announced the formation of the Jewish Voices for Trump coalition.  According to the announcement on his website, the coalition is “for those in the Jewish community who feel politically homeless, for those who have been betrayed by the Biden administration’s many flip-flops on the safety and security of the Jewish community and the State of Israel, you do have a home. It’s with the Republican Party, and with President Donald J. Trump” Asking for a friend: Are the Dark Duke of Mar-A-Lago’s dining companions Nick Fuentes and Kanye West part of the coalition?…Got an extra $299?  The far-right Big League Politics is hawking emergency medical kits that include Ivermectin, 28 Amoxicillin tablets and 12 tabs of a generic antibiotic. One only needs fill out a short questionnaire before receiving the prescription-only meds….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Despite the best efforts of the campaign and the mainstream media to brand him as a midwestern centrist and "America's dad," among other things, it's hard not to wonder if Walz will be the next candidate the campaign will force off the ticket to make for someone less controversial and with less baggage.
