Oct. 30, 2025

Greetings! JD Vance is speaking at a Breitbart event November 20 in Washington, DC.  The website’s Washington bureau chief Matthew Boyle will interview the Veep. Boyle is quoted in the Breitbart article about the event as boasting, “Breitbart News is the publication of record for the America First movement.”  Or to put it another way, Breitbart is just a mouthpiece for the movement…When Bill Gates backtracked on his position on climate change, Trump (naturally) had to crow about it in this Truth Social post. “I (WE!) just won the War on the Climate Change Hoax,” he wrote. “Bill Gates has finally admitted that he was completely WRONG on the issue. It took courage to do so, and for that we are all grateful. MAGA!!!”…Wikipedia watch your back! Earlier this week, Elon Musk launched Grokipedia, an AI-powered competitor to the extremely popular free online encyclopedia. Wired magazine has already charged  Grokipedia with promoting far-right ideology.  For example, Wired reports that Grokipedia claims that social media promotes transgenderism… Another right-wing outlet takes on  Tucker Carlson.  FrontPage accuses the right-wing chatterbox of lying about Israel and betraying Christians…Kashing in on the perks of the job? FBI Director  Kash Patel  is  accused of using the bureau’s jet to attend his girlfriend’s musical performance at a pro-wrestling event held at Penn State’s Bryce Jenner Center, according to theDaily Beast. Snarky me can’t help but add that Patel is 45, and gal-pal singer Alexis Wilkens is 26…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
