Here's a link if you want to hear me talk politics, polling, and polarization with a couple legends, James Carville and Al Hunt... youtube.com/watch?v=PhAi...

I'm not sure 65-69% of Americans would agree the sun is hot and night is dark, but they apparently agree on this: Americans who say Trump is "very" or "somewhat dishonest" = 69% Americans who say Trump is "very" or "somewhat corrupt" = 65% www.umass.edu/news/article...

those are 😳 numbers... www.umass.edu/news/article...

In April, Trump approval among men = 48% Now = 39% April, Trump approval among women = 39% Now = 35% April, Trump approval among independents = 31% Now = 21% "This is really bad news for Trump, and for Republicans who depend on independents in close elections...” www.umass.edu/news/article...

I’ve worked with worse views…

Wisdom on our broken health insurance system from my brilliant friend @mirandayaver.bsky.social... www.theguardian.com/wellness/202...

A valuable listen from my former HKS professor Elaine Kamarck on the smart and constitutional way to reduce spending/workforce and make government work more effectively. Quite the contrast... www.npr.org/2025/02/26/n...

“If you committed violence on that day, obviously you shouldn’t be pardoned.” -JD Vance Someone understands that Trump's a lame duck & preserving a political career requires distancing himself from some of the boss's most repugnant actions. Worked out great for Mike Pence.

Pardoning the suckers who fell for his scam could be the beginning of the only honorable thing Trump has done during this entire episode—an admission that he is the one responsible and left his pathetic marks holding the bag.

I’ve warned since 2020 that it’s going to get worse before it gets worse. Go to YouTube when I spoke on the House Floor about QAnon (Oct ‘20) my warning in Dec ‘20 about the dangers of conspiracies. My work on the J6 committee, my book THE BREACH There’s no cavalry www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
