TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

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

Biden? Trump? No, consider this...  

Are Trump’s Polls Understating His Lead?

Taxpayers Subsidize College Extremism

Nearly every student loan taken in the U.S. is either given by the government or fully guaranteed by taxpayers. This sounds wonderful in the abstract since it allows every student a chance at higher education. The reality, however, is that we have incentivized universities to create hordes of debt-ridden, credentialed nitwits.

A Jewish woman was beaten to unconsciousness by pro-Hamas occupiers at UCLA while campus security refused to intervene. A group of Jewish students exacted revenge and then, only then, did Mayor Karen Bass (D) finally find a voice to condemn “detestable violence on campus”. How convenient. How transparent.

College students are marinated in readings, lectures, and group sessions teaching them to banish impure thoughts about race and ethnicity, yet many of these activists are quick to resort to the basest barroom racial, ethnic, and religious taunts.

Why Is the Media Running Interference for Professional Pro-Hamas Thugs

NY Post

Members of the press wanted to stick to the narrative that the protests come solely from a wellspring of youthful outrage — which made it easier to obliquely cheer the pro-Hamas occupiers from the sidelines while conveniently staying out of the political violence where they might get hurt.

The "Free Palestine" campus Hitler Youth have become a real pain for Joe Biden and the people running what's left of his brain. The plan was to have Biden tucked away from the spotlight in a modified basement strategy, hiding behind the news of Trump being in court and finally having the walls close in on him.

One of America’s two major political parties — the Democrat Party — has not only become the command central platform for today’s outbreak of antisemitism; for those who came in late, antiisemitism has always had a home on the left and specifically in the Democratic Party.
