Greetings! Victory Girls mourns the death of New York City’s famed theater district. The blog claims Broadway has turned into a “migrant district.” Pray tell why? Because the Square Hotel adjacent to “the great white way” is being used to house migrants and is staffed by National Guardsmen…Judge Juan Merchan keeps threatening Defendant Donald Trump with jail for being in contempt of court. Merchan’s next step may be to take a page from Dean Wormer’s “Animal House'' playbook and put Trump on “double secret probation” (here’s the 18-second clip from the 1978 hit comedy)… Given the P.R disasters Harvard University has experienced as of late, it’s no surprise it’s looking for a new director of public affairs (job listing here), to help manage crisis communications among other tasks. In a fit of snark, TheWashington Free Beacon offers three possible hires including the former deputy director of digital media and drone warfare for Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City… And speaking of Harvard, this year’s commencement speaker is crusading Filipino journalist Maria Ressa, who compared Israel to Nazi Germany according to The College Fix… New in bookstores: Jen Psaki’s Say More. The subhead says Psaki offers “lessons from work, the White House, and the World.” If you don’t know who she is, this book ain’t for you (but it might be a good Mother’s Day gift for a left-leaning mom)….If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Anti-America morons in New York City disgracefully attacked a WWI memorial. A mob defaced and desecrated the 107th Infantry Memorial in Central Park during unrest targeting the Met Gala Monday night, and one idiot even lit the American flag on fire.

Vicious, Anti-American, Antisemitic “Protests” Should Be Quashed

source: Human Events

It’s disingenuous to observe what’s happening and whine about the First Amendment. Commentators do it because it sounds noble and it’s much easier to discuss than the dark underbelly of these protests that is the rank antisemitic and anti-American sentiments that continues to just cascade from these students.

Dems Use Legal System to Target the Right

source: NY Post

While prosecutor NY Country DA Alvin Bragg leaves no stone unthrown in his assault on Trump’s creatively designed “crimes,” he’s letting thieves, murderers and illegal immigrants who assault cops run free. He’s not policing the streets, he’s policing threats to Democratic power.

Let’s Globalize Conservatism

source: Hungarian Conservative

The global Left’s narratives are easy to summarize because they are ever-present in English-language media outlets and online streaming platforms. This represents a significant advantage for the global progressive Left. Do conservatives have a comparable presence? Regrettably, not today.

Greetings! Society News: Donald Trump acolyte and ex-advisor Hope Hicks is engaged, per the New York Post. Hicks, 35, who tearfully testified Friday in Defendant Trump’s election interference and hush money trial, is set to tie the knot with Goldman Sachs senior executive James Donovan, 58…Another of The Donald’s sycophants, Kellyanne Conway, brought her motor mouth to HBO's “Real Time with Bill Maher” Friday night. In classic Conway fashion, she spewed a perpetual stream of pro-Trump talking points and anti-Biden jabs, punctuating sentences with a coquettish smirk. Still, the Queen of Alternative Facts misstated that Trump was the only president in the last 72 years to not start a war. Props to Maher for correcting her on the spot by referencing Jimmy Carter’s presidency. “I think it’s incorrect, but I’ll give it to you,” she cackled…We’re going to need a bigger gag order: Over the weekend, Trump truthed on Truth Social to “arrest Jack Smith. He is a criminal.” In case you’re not hip to right wing lingo, a “truth” is a tweet on the Truth Social platform. (Somebody call the irony police.)…Celebrity Updates: Jerry Seinfeld’s spouse Jessica kicked in $5,000 to fund last week’s pro-Israel demonstration at UCLA that turned violent (Newsweek). Her traditionally apolitical husband has been drawing heat from the left for statements on the war in Gaza….Yada yada yada: Seinfeld is giving a commencement address at Duke University on May 12. Expect pro-Palestinian demonstrations…TheRighting’s redesigned website launched Friday afternoon. Take a look…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. — Howard
