TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Jalen Brunson, President Trump holding on line 2. Will The Donald invite the NBA champion NY Knicks for a White House photo op? If he does, will they go? (Hope not!!!!) Worth noting: Last year’s NBA champs, the Oklahoma Thunder declined Trump’s invite...Speaking of NY athletes, House Republicans are eagerly awaiting the election of former NY Yankee All-Star first baseman Mark Teixeira to become the representative in Texas’ 21st  Congressional district north of San Antonio. The Trump-endorsed Teixeira won the GOP primary and is considered a lock to win in November since no Democrat has held the position since 1978, And the power-hitting politician is expected to boost the fortunes of the GOP’s Congressional baseball team, which has already beaten the Democrats six years in a row, according to The Hill...Desecration: There’s no other word to describe my feelings about the South Lawn of the White House lawn being used last night for UFC’s violent cage fights in celebration of Trump’s 80th birthday. I watched the first hour of this grotesque spectacle and that was enough. This morning on Truth Social, Trump described the event as “One of the most exciting days in the History of our fabled White House!” (Cue the gagging)...Bowing tonight: Fans of MS NOW’s fast-talking Ali Veshi will want to catch tonight’s debut of the weeknight show The 11th Hour with Ali Veshi. Veshi takes over from Stephanie Ruhle, who I liked but never matched the pizzazz of her predecessor Brian Williams. Williams helmed the 11 PM slot from  2016 to 2021, most often pegged to the perpetual  craziness of the Trump 1.0 administration, laden with his trademark wry wit...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Greed and envy. Not good looks for the Left, but they are all running with that since SpaceX’s IPO launched Elon Musk into the trillionaire stratosphere. The whining and screeching over the IPO has been something to behold.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings. Number of the day: 80.  Donald Trump turns 80 on Sunday.  Other prominent personalities will also celebrate their 80th birthday later this year including Sylvester Stallone (July 6), former Biden Sec. of the Treasury Janet Yellen (August 13), Bill Clinton (August 19), Tommy Lee Jones (September 15), Laura Bush (November 4), and Steven Spielberg (December 18)...VP JD Vance will parachute behind enemy lines on Tuesday, June 16.  That’s when he’s set to appear on ABC’s liberal-leaning yakfest “The View.” He’ll be  promoting his new book Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, which drops early next week.

UFC 250 is slated to be televised Sunday at 8 p.m. (EDT) live from the lawn of the White House in honor of the nation’s 250th birthday and the president’s 80th birthday.  The desecration of the White House grounds will be streamed live on Paramount+.  If I were a TV programmer, I would immediately schedule a screening of the 2006 Mike Judge film Idiocracy, which essentially foretold the idiotic low-brow instincts of the Trump administration a decade before The Donald took office. Available on Tubi for free. Also worth watching: Game 5 of the NBA finals featuring the miracle NY Knicks vs the San Antonio Spurs. Saturday, 8:30 p.m. EDT ABC...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
