TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Dept. of Sticks & Stones: There’s an entire Wikipedia page devoted to the derogatory nicknames that Trump gives his adversaries.  An astonishing 120 nicknames are listed including “Nikki “Birdbrain” Haley, Gavin “Governor Newscum” Newsom, and Adam “Pencil Neck” Schiff. It’s a shameful compilation of low-brow insults from the former leader of the free world and it reflects poorly on the United States…Dept. of Surprises: Red Sox player Jarren Duran has the top-selling jersey on the Major League Baseball website after calling a belligerent fan a homosexual slur, according to Breitbart.  He was suspended for two games and then sales started taking off.  “Despite the team’s woke response to the incident, many fans seem to have had the opposite reaction,” Breitbart wrote…Job with least security: Ivy League university president.  Five presidents have left their jobs in the last year, most due to campus unrest.  Columbia’s Minouche Shafik is the latest. (Politico)…Trump’s rallies may have become political losers.  That’s the opinion of the Wall Street Journal’s Daniel Henninger because they do nothing to expand his base. Henninger suggests town halls instead….Not good news for female Secret Service agents.  Susan Crabtree of Real Clear Politics tweets this morning that a female agent left her post without permission at a North Carolina Trump rally to breastfeed her baby.  Alarm has spread among right wing outlets like The Gateway Pundit, Hot Air and RedState….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Greetings! Got 125 minutes to kill?  If so, check out Elon Musk's chat with Donald Trump that was botched so terribly Monday night.  Be sure to note Trump’s lisp which is quite pronounced at time. It’s posted here…Meanwhile, on his website, Trump is crowing that the interview “broke the internet.”  Trust me, the Dark Duke of Mar-A-Lago was referring to the hundreds of thousands who tuned in, not the broken technology that marred the conversation…The Washington Examiner thinks that JD Vance is doing a fine job running for VP, and  gushes that he “hits his stride and defines Kamala Harris while swatting away talking heads.”  Seems like they may have confused Vance with Kamala’s running mate Tim Waltz…The National Review is pleased that feminist breakdancer Raygun didn’t win a medal at the just-concluded Olympics…The Free Press claims Planned Parenthood has become a leading supplier of testosterone which is used in gender transition therapies. Last year, roughly 40,000 patients went to Planned Parenthood for this purpose, per TFP..…Neo-com commentator Eli Lake says America needs a new national anthem because “The Star Spangled Banner” doesn’t capture the nation’s rock n’ roll soul.  Lake has some soft rock in mind to celebrate the United States 250th birthday in 2026, including  Elton John’s “Philadelphia Freedom.”  He also campaigns for “We Are the World,” which he argues is appropriate because we are a nation of immigrants. Not a bad idea. (The Free Press)…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

The Deep State Still Wants to Kill Trump Before the Election

Donald Trump is still a target because the Left wants him to be a target. There has been nothing to indicate that the alleged incompetence that allowed a disturbed young man to take a shot at Trump won't happen again.

Of Course They Tried to Kill Trump

Now who “they” are is yet to be answered, but it is clear this was a perfect setup -- from their perspective -- but the dang shooter missed! This seems to be the only flaw in their plan

Trump Needs a New Playbook…Fast

source: Daily Caller

Forget about national earned media coverage. Presidential elections are not popularity contests anyway, as the Trump campaign well knows. Focus on local markets in battleground states and invest heavily in paid media instead.

Musk’s Billion-Viewed Interview with Trump

Elon Musk’s interview with Donald Trump on Monday has been viewed or heard a billion times. By comparison, the typical audience on Fake Tapper’s CNN is less than a million viewers.

CNN Seethes with Anger as Trump-Musk Interview Crushes Ratings

CNN and other liberal media outlets could hardly contain their jealousy on Monday after Donald Trump's much-anticipated interview with immigrant job creator Elon Musk, owner of X (formerly Twitter) and other successful tech companies, enjoyed historic ratings.

Trump-Musk Interview Shatters Viewership Milestones with Numbers Mainstream Media Only Dream of

source: Western Journal

All things considered, the Trump-Musk conversation, which lasted for more than two hours, represented one of the greatest victories for freedom and the will of the people over hyper-authoritarian elitism in recent memory.

Iran Is Helping the Kamala Campaign

The Mullahs create pro-Kamala site, hack Trump accounts, leak materials to media.

For Queen Kamala, Media Are Trying to Create “Hope and Change,” Version 2.0

source: Daily Signal

This isn’t the “reintroduction” of Harris; it’s a rebranding. It’s an almost complete fabrication of a presidential candidate whose strategy appears to be maintaining a royal detachment from politics and policy.

Kamala Is Anti-Family

source: Washington Examiner

The Democratic Party’s obsession with raising the cost of energy, as it has successfully done in Harris’s California and Walz’s Minnesota, is anti-family. More importantly, so is the version of an expanded child tax credit pushed by the Biden-Harris administration.

Kamala Should Conduct Her First Major Interview as Dem Nominee with NY Post

source: NY Post

You’ve got to appeal not just to your progressive base, but also to moderate ­Republicans and conservative-leaning independents. Having George Stephanopoulos or Anderson Cooper slobber all over you won’t bring you new ­voters.

Behind Walz’s “Hunter” Facade Is a Plan to Take Your Guns

In just a few sentences, Gov. Tim Walz made false claims about assault weapons, background checks, CDC research, and reciprocal carry.

Kamala Harris made an odd choice of running mate if she wanted to appear tough on crime.

A Kamala Harris presidency threatens the roots of American order.

They Told the Ultimate Lie

source: Conservative View from NH

We had a Manchurian President who they propped up a few days a week when he was in Washington to look coherent, and then they sent him off for three or four days to lie in the sand in Rehoboth. When they were successful with a deceit of this magnitude, it was easy to forget that you despised Kamala Harris a few weeks ago, and now you revere her as the second coming of Barack Obama.

Globalists Plan to Use Migrants as a Mercenary Army Against the West

source: Infowars

Migrants from the third-world are not merely being used as unwitting tools for cultural saturation of the west. They’re not being shipped in by the millions to simply live off the fruits of our labor and our ancestors’ labors. They are being brought into the US, the UK and Europe as enforcers for the establishment.
