TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Veteran  GOP consultant Karl Rove gives Donald Trump some unsolicited advice choosing a running mate: “Don’t sweat it because it doesn’t matter that much,” he opines in a Wall Street Journal op-ed.  Nonetheless, my money is on The Donald selecting Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) because of her epic  beat down of the elite college presidents last December.  Many voters are discouraged by campus protests, and Stefanik’s anti-elitist vibe might resonate with millions and could be a plus for Trump…New York’s Celebrate Israel Parade is scheduled for June 2 with revelers marching up Manhattan’s posh Fifth Avenue.  The parade is considered the largest confab in the world supporting Israel. Sad to say, but it seems like an inevitable target for pro-Palestinian protesters.…Conservative political consultant and scribe Ryan James Girdusky’s National Populist weekly Substack newsletter is gaining fans on the right…She may have a point: On her hit podcast, Megyn Kelly blasts Stormy Daniels’ sex romp courtroom testimony, according to the NY Post. On her podcast, Kelly calls it “bullshit #MeToo revisionism.”  I’m glad Daniels is pulling back the covers on her alleged tryst with Donald “you remind me of my daughter” Trump, but her courtroom  recollections made it seem darker and more sinister than previous descriptions over the past several years….Weekend Watch:  The Netflix series, A Man in Full, based on the bestselling Tom Wolfe novel about an unsavory Atlanta real estate developer, got slammed by critics. I’ve watched four episodes and I beg to differ…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Netanyahu Is a Magnifying Glass on Biden’s Pathetic Weakness

source: PJ Media

The way it's supposed to play out is that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is supposed to have Israel capitulate to Biden's whims, giving Biden a diplomatic flex and making it appear that he's in charge of something.  Thus far, it's not working out that way. That's because Netanyahu is a strong, focused leader who has principles.

Ivy League Schools Polarize Students About Israel, Palestine War

If you believe a land is yours, you are free to attack it, terrorize its residents, and claim it. Looking at what is going on at U.S. campuses, that seems to be what Ivy League schools are teaching to their students today.

College Professors Are the Most Dangerous People in America

source: Daily Signal

They are dangerous because they encourage impressionable young college students to adhere to the doctrines of the professors they choose without giving them the chance to meaningfully challenge those doctrines.

The Dumbest Kids on Campus

source: MacIver Institute

It was altogether fitting that the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee students who set up a pro-Hamas protest camp erected a “No Cops Allowed” sign reminiscent of the “No Girls Allowed” warnings on a young boy’s treehouse: These protesters are childishly naïve rubes at best and dangerously misinformed bigots at worst.

NAACP Refuses to Provide Evidence After Smearing Ole Miss Students as Racists

source: Outkick

The University of Mississippi NAACP chapter is refusing to provide evidence or answer questions after accusing multiple students of racism, despite repeated inquiries from OutKick.com. Ole Miss was engulfed by protests last week as anti-America/anti-Israel/pro-Hamas rallies on college campuses hit a boiling point. After one such protest formed on campus, a large group of mostly young men gathered in response to make it known sympathizing with terrorists wouldn't be tolerated in Oxford.

Colleges Prioritize Unrest Over Students and Education

source: Newsmax

The Left and their media allies want you to believe the protests roiling college campuses are spontaneous uprisings of morally fervent students worried about Gaza war victims. Don't fall for that claim. It's a scam.

Fraternities Are a Cure for What Ails Higher Education

Greek culture stands for patriotism, civility and camaraderie, virtues embodied by the courageous young men who defended the flag at UNC.

Stormy Daniels Self-Destructed Under a Devastating Cross-Examination

Stormy Daniels is only casually acquainted with the concept of truth. She massages it or offends it whenever it suits her.

Trump Trials Falling Like a House of Cards

source: Conservative View from NH

Why should we be surprised? The multiple trials and 91 counts of indictments were Biden’s equivalence of Iran shooting hundreds of missiles and drones into Israel.

Judge Drops Charges Against Illegals Rioting at Border and Busting Through the Fence

If they were conservatives, they'd get more than ten years in prison.

The Bastardization of the Boy Scouts

The transmogrification of the Boy Scouts is just the culmination of a long-running war on all-male spaces.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Watch yer’ back Pulitzer Prizes.  You’ve got competitor on the right. On Tuesday -- the day after the Pulitzers were announced – the conservative Media Research Council (MRC) unveiled the winners of its third annual Bulldog Awards, “honoring conservatives in the media who truly deserve accolades yet will never receive them from the news media establishment.”  Among the winners: Best Podcast, Ben Shapiro (good choice but Steve Bannon and Megyn Kelly might be fuming), Outstanding Columnist (Selena Zito, solid pick but Townhall’s wicked and wickedly funny Kurt Schlichter would have received my vote), and Best Social Media Personality (The Babylon Bee’s Seth Dillon nabbed the crown leaving Donald “Truth Social” out in the cold).  Here’s why the MRC created the awards, according to its president Brent Bozell III: “Like everything else the left controls, major journalism awards are rigged to reward people who advance their most radical agenda priorities. If you want to win a Pulitzer, write about 'climate change' or 'systemic racism' or 'reproductive health' or promote ‘Russian collusion.’ If you want to win a Bulldog Award, tell the truth”… The conservative Free Press has an exclusive interview with the Columbia University custodian trapped by an angry mob who fought back against one protestor…I’m guessing Kristi Noem hasn’t had any trouble this week getting her kids to do their chores or eat their vegetables…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Biden’s Bully Diplomacy Disgraces America

source: WND

If voters do return Biden and the Democratic Party to power, world leaders from Japan to Saudi Arabia are going to be making alternative plans that do not include the United States of America. The re-election of Joe Biden would change world alliances and attitudes and result in the isolation of America.

Never Trumpers Dump Biden After Israel Betrayal

source: FrontPage

Biden’s people bet that they could slap an arms embargo on Israel and still draw in Never Trumpers. That’s proving to be a bad bet.

Biden’s Silence on Campus Protests Beyond Disturbing

source: Newsmax

Pro-Palestinian followers have committed heinous acts including destroying property, injuring Jewish citizens and students who are simply trying to get to class, and occupying our hardworking police forces, when they have their hands full enough as it is. Biden hasn't said a word.

CNN’s Hyped Biden Interview Was a Tongue Bath

source: NewsBusters

CNN’s press release announcing anchor Erin Burnett’s sit-down with President Joe Biden promised an interview. Clearly, that didn’t happen. Instead, we got pure, unadulterated Regime Media sycophancy.

Biden’s Insane Interview with Erin Burnett Should Be the Last Straw for American Voters

source: RedState

Biden is something other than a senile old man who wouldn't know the truth if it punched him in his botox-stretched face. He is objectively evil.

Biden Offers to Turn U.S. Military Personnel into Saudi Royal Bodyguards

source: The American Conservative

Biden took office talking of his commitment to human rights and determination to turn MbS, as the crown prince is known, into a “pariah.” Now the administration is proposing to turn the U.S. military into a modern Janissary corps, a bodyguard for the thousands of royal princes who rule over their countrymen. It is well past time to stop deferring to the KSA.
