Wasn’t expecting to see that.

Yup - same here. Thought it was going to be something like “went from 60% to 56%”

No realli!

The 2024 election saw Trump win 63 percent of rural voters, up from 60 percent in 2020, according to AP VoteCast.

According to the poll, just 46 percent of rural voters now approve of Trump’s job performance, while 45 percent disapprove. In February, 59 percent approved and 37 percent disapproved.

That’s a pretty significant drop in a little more than a month.

Glad to see some red folks are finally starting to open their eyes.

Well since there’s a new logo, I guess I need to watch it.

I really wish some of these reporters would dig in and challenge him. I get that its uncomfortable, but that’s your job.

His questions should have been:

• Do you think he has MS13, marijuana, smile, cross, skull tattooed on his hands? And not added with Photoshop later?
• Are you saying this combination of tattoos is a code to identify him as a member of MS13? Because gang experts have cast doubt on this interpretation.
• How many other MS13 members have this exact combination of tattoos on his hand? If its a sign of being a member of the gang, others should have it as well.
• Do you think a vague and symbolic tattoo is proof of belonging to criminal organization?
• Does this make your Secretary of Defense a white supremacist? Because he has numerous tattoos associated with that ideology.
• Do you have any real proof Abrego Garcia is a member of MS-13? And if so why did your administration appeal his protected status in 2019?

To keep tabs on the real impact of these tariffs, does anybody know of some good price trackers?

The investigation revealed that upon examination in Ukraine, it was discovered that several internal organs were missing, including the brain, eyeballs, and part of the larynx.

According to the investigative team, the body showed signs of an autopsy conducted in Russia. An international expert suggested that the missing organs could have been removed to obscure evidence of death by strangulation or suffocation.

Sounds like they mutilated the body to cover up how she died.

While it sounds like Amazon already capitulated, I’m guessing they’ll switch gears when their customers start complaining about the rise in prices.

Take the MAGA cult out of the poll and it’s more like high 60s to low 70s.

ICE officials have repeatedly referred to them as leaders or senior members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, but judges have repeatedly said the government has produced no evidence to support the allegation.

“They have gone through four different judges, none of whom thought they should be detained. They have deep ties to their community in the United States. They have three minor children. They’ve been living peacefully in our country since 2022,” Benoit said.

Pro-Life Party in action.

“Much has been said over the last three months about Mexico and Canada,” Trump said. “But we have very large deficits with both of them. But even more importantly, they have allowed fentanyl to come into our country at levels never seen before, killing hundreds of thousands of our citizens and many very young, beautiful people, destroying families. Nobody’s ever seen anything like it.”

My, how quickly they abandoned the ‘we must protect our people’ reasoning used to justify tariffs.

Good. They should keep doing this for everything he does illegally.

Even if it won’t amount to anything, we’re getting Republicans on the record as saying they support Trump.

Makes it tough for the inevitable “I didn’t side with Trump” statements we’ll hear when he is finally gone.

Missed an opportunity to make Leia either Melania or Ivanka.

Somebody needs to put a picture of Trump in one of those posters and stick it on the lawn …

Not just a judge. An elected judge.

Dugan won her seat on the Milwaukee County bench in 2016, defeating a judge who had been appointed in the heavily Democratic county by then-Gov. Scott Walker ®.

Any time you hear Republicans argue 18 year olds shouldn’t be able to vote, and they want to increase the age to 21/25, tell them “OK - then anybody over 65 isn’t allowed to vote either.”
