The 58 percent disapproval for Trump's handling of the economy is the highest disapproval he has ever received for his handling of the economy. The previous high was 57 percent, most recently in Quinnipiac University's December 17, 2025 poll.

Negative 17 points on foreign policy
Negative 13 points on performance as commander in chief

The 58% disapproval for his handling of the economy is his highest ever

The Iran War Shows We've Lost Complexity and It's a Problem The U.S./Israeli attacks on Iran are reminding us once again of the collective failure of public discourse.

Whether in our political affiliations, our stances on divisive issues, or our emotional response to wide-scale suffering, we are being pushed to opposite poles by a common reductive oversimplification that demands immediate agreement and absolute certainty.

Trump’s War to Nowhere In Iran #politics #trump YouTube video by The Intercept

Why is the U.S. in Iran? Unfortunately, “Trump has repeatedly failed to articulate anything even resembling coherent about why the U.S. got into this war.”

That's what they call an Epstienian slip

Who put this MFer in charge of the world?

It’s Monday. Trump is lying. Iran does not have any Tomahawks. Not one.👇

Trump is upbeat while the stock market is trading, but suddenly pessimistic when it closes.

This is brazen market manipulation.

'Ridiculous': Kristi Noem's 28-year-old aide wasted millions on unusable ICE vehicles A former deputy to outgoing Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem saddled the department with millions of dollars in wasted funding for vehicles that cannot be used.U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcem...

A Noem aide spent $3 million on pickup trucks emblazoned with the ICE name & logo, which ICE agents -- notoriously averse to advertising their presence -- will not drive, so they're just sitting in a lot, useless. The contract went to a Trump donor who owns a regional Chevy dealership.

Make some noise for Gov. Janet “took-Trump-to-court-and-won” Mills!

From protecting health care to defending her state against Donald Trump’s attacks, Maine has a real fighter in Gov. @janetmillsforme.bsky.social, the first and only woman to ever hold the position in state history.

Jesus Christ, man, have some self respect.

New Quinnipiac poll shows Trump continuing to crater:

37-57 overall approval
39-58 on economy
38-57 on handling of Iran

The kicker: 55% say Iran did NOT pose an imminent threat to the US, while only 39% say it did

He's really settling in at that 38% number on many fronts, isn't he

unsurprising. the us is the senior power here but it's not calling the shots and seems to have no visibility or veto on actions which may have some military logic but which weigh heavily on civilians.

Today, Trump is attempting to fundraise off “delivering HUGE wins on energy affordability”

To ALL on here daring to denigrate Kamala Harris and Hilary Clinton whose only crime was Misognoir and Gender, THEY were both exceptional candidates.

Trump and Hegseth call it war every single day.

What even is this charade???

I understand that there are a lot of folks on the left who instinctively recoil from religious language, and with good reason given its use by the right.

But please listen to this, and focus on how he's trying to realign "Christian values" so they align with and advance progressive policy goals.

Iran may be activating sleeper cells outside the country, alert says The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as “an operational trigger” for “sleeper assets."

“The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as "an operational trigger" for "sleeper assets" according to alert sent to law enforcement agencies.”

I was called an alarmist when I mentioned sleeper cells. 🤷‍♂️

Wow. Republican Rep Kevin Kiley tells reporters in a virtual press conference that not only will he run as an independent in CA-6, but he will officially be an independent for the remainder of his current term in Congress, @melodykloepfer.bsky.social reports.

Susan Collins has gotten all too comfortable staying silent as the President takes a wrecking ball to our Constitution.

This moment demands someone who will fight back. I've stood up to him before, and I'm not afraid to do it again in the Senate.

Trump tweeted this in 2024.

Idiots elected him.

What do we have?

Oil is up
The world is crashing

We need to get rid of Trump. 25th amendment, impeachment, I don't care. Dude's gotta go.

(I keep telling you, it's ALWAYS projection)

The orange felon made sure to lower US flags to half-staff for fascist propagandist podcaster Charlie Kirk but not for civil rights icon Reverend Jesse Jackson or the 6 soldiers he killed with his war in Iran.

Jesus, Japan’s Nikkei index is down over 4,000 points, over 7%

South Korea’s KOSPI is down 8% and hit a circuit breaker.

Tomorrow is gonna be brutal, but it will probably also eventually make Trump TACO.

The co-presidency continues.
