TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! It’s the battle of the podcasts.  On Sunday, Kamala Harris was interviewed on “Call Her Daddy,” a six-year-old podcast with a huge female audience.  Not to be outdone on the podcast front, Trump appeared yesterday on the most popular right wing podcast, “The Ben Shapiro Show” (here’s the full transcript of the interview).   Based on information I’ve pulled from the podcasting platform Castbox, Trump potentially reached twice as many listeners as Harris. “The Ben Shapiro Show” has 637,318 Castbox subscribers, while “Call Her Daddy” has 290,216.  Those are big numbers in the pod world. Keep in mind, Castbox has less than 2% of the podcast platform market, dominated by Spotify and Apple…Fall movie star Mel Gibson has a TV series in development. The Gibson project is about the 1565 Siege of Malta, when an outnumbered army of Christians held off Muslim invaders (The Western Journal)…The American Conservative calls newly sworn-in president of Mexico Claudia Sheinbaum “the dangerous radical on our southern border”…Right wing entertainment blogger Christian Toto gives thumbs down to The Apprentice, a new theatrical film about Trump’s early adult years and his tutelage under the much reviled lawyer Roy Cohn.  Toto concludes that “partisan rage” sinks the “The Apprentice” (lousy title, BTW).  “The screenplay, by Fox News critic Gabriel Sherman repeatedly echoes 2024 amidst its talking points,” writes Toto in his Tinseltown blog Hollywood in Toto. “Sherman loathes Fox News, but he’d be better served by turning off MSNBC.” The film opens Friday…If  you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

The Vibes Have Run Out for Kamala

Harris struggles to find footing in softball media appearances.

Kamala Goes Full Cringe with Awkward Beer Stunt

source: Outkick

Fresh off trying to convince people she has a Glock she takes to the range (an obvious campaign talking point to connect with regular dudes), she's now trying to convince people she likes cold beer. Guns and beer! What's not to love? Harris appeared Tuesday night on Stephen Colbert's show, and they decided to crack open some beers.

How Is Anyone Backing Kamala?

source: Townhall

She lacks substance in almost every way, but because she's presented as if she's the messiah for democracy, a lot of the lemmings who simply do as the media tells them will trot out to vote. How can anyone look at her, follow the campaign, and still decide she's the best choice? It boggles the mind that anyone could be that stupid.

Kamala’s Priority Is Expanding Welfare, Not Strengthening the Middle Class

source: National Review

Harris’s agenda: big new welfare checks for nonworkers and inevitably higher taxes for everyone else who has to pick up the tab.

Kamala’s “Joy” Is Quietly Turning to Panic for Dems

source: Fox News

It is hard to say exactly when the shine started wearing off the Harris penny, when joy gave way to frustration, but the failure of the Teamsters to endorse her, and the massive union’s internal polling showing Trump with a lead seems significant.

Anti-Domestic Violence Groups Oddly Silent on Emhoff Accusation

source: Daily Signal

Left-leaning domestic violence prevention groups and legacy media figures have touted Doug Emhoff, the husband of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, as a positive example of masculinity, yet they have remained silent after Emhoff faced an accusation of domestic violence.

Doug Emhoff’s Former Colleagues Claim He Was “Misogynistic”

The husband of Kamala Harris was described as a sexist and obnoxious by his former colleagues at his Los Angeles law firm, Venable. Other staffers say Doug Emhoff cursed co-workers was vindictive towards female staff who rejected his advances and hired pretty assistants who weren’t qualified for the job at the office.

How Trump Can Win the Popular Vote

Democrats should brace for a shock four weeks from now — the possibility not just of a victory for former President Donald Trump but a win so big Trump even beats Vice President Kamala Harris in the popular vote.

Bank Your Vote Early for Trump to Avoid Hurricanes, Hackers and Dem Shenanigans

Election season has rolled in and the Left has been shouting that the future of the country is at stake. We certainly have been a “sick” country ever since Biden and Kamala started ruling over us. That’s why, it’s time to get off the couch, shake off the disease of the Democratic Party, and cast your vote early for the Orange Man

Gullible Biden Gave Putin Back the “Merchant of Death”

The “Merchant of Death” is back to selling arms to the world’s worst, just two years after getting sprung from a US prison in the Biden-Harris deal with Putin to get WNBA star Brittney Griner released from a Russian internment camp.So much for the dealmakers’ promises that Viktor Bout wouldn’t go back to his deadly work

CBS Anchor Gets Dressed Down by Editorial Bosses for Confronting Liberal Extremist

CBS’s cowardly capitulation to the far-left anti-Semites explains their disturbing coverage of the October 7 anniversary on CBS Mornings, in which foreign correspondent Elizabeth Palmer lamented the Israeli bombings of Hamas hideouts and lied about there being no hostages rescues pulled off by the Israeli Defense Forces.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! If you missed last  night’s “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris, you can watch it here…I suggest you also check out Harris’s controversial Sunday interview on the hugely popular “Call Her Daddy” podcast that was just posted  According to the NY Post, “Daddy”  is best known for “sex revelations.” Still, it’s a podcast that reaches tens of thousands of Gen Z and millennial women that Harris is smart to woo. She’s savvy enough to go on Howard Stern’s show too – he’s endorsed Harris – and put herself in front of an audience that has plenty of folks that went with MAGA-nation in 2020….The Free Press, the fast-growing right-leaning news outlet, gives a beat-down to CBS News for criticizing their anchor’s challenging September 30 interview with award-winning author Ta-Nehisi Coates.  CBS Morning co-anchor Tony Dokoupil peppered Coates with questions about  his new book “The Message,” which The Free Press called “a one-sided polemic against Israel.” For the way Dokoupil conducted the interview with Coates, CBS News said yesterday that it  did not meet company standards. That drew the ire of  The Free Press which charged that  CBS bowed to the pressures of an “elite consensus”…Donald Trump’s former hometown newspaper, The New York  Post, gets the tome-treatment in an oral history of the scrappy tabloid. The book drops today. Paper of Wreckage (great title, BTW) was penned by Page Six alums Frank DiGiacomo and Susan Mulcahy.  In other publishing  news, Melania Trump becomes a woman of letters with her memoir Melania (what else would you call it?).  It was blurbed by The Donald (natch!) who wrote with apparent zero self-awareness, “I wouldn’t be the man I am today without her by my side.”  And how many times have we seen them side-by-side during this 2024 White House run?…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Of Course Kamala Hates Men

She doesn’t seem to associate with any men worth respecting.

Why Men Won’t Vote for Kamala

Male are put off by Cacklin’ Kamala, and the media talking heads can barely conceal their panic over this as the election looms nearer, especially because black men are fleeing the Democrat plantation to align with Trump, whom they see as a badass who has their economic interests at heart.
