Trump is using a "waste, fraud, and abuse" campaign to cut Medicaid: freezing federal payments, labeling home care and autism therapy as fraud, justifying cuts. Lew Blank and I polled voters on what works against it, free messaging briefing, 5/28 @ 1PM ET Register: live.zoho.com/hila-mwe-ufe

Some goods, like utilities, housing, and healthcare, are inelastic — voters report paying more, but show little flexibility in buying less or opting for cheaper versions. However, more voters report cutting back their spending on household goods, gas, and groceries.

Economic pessimism has persisted throughout Trump's second term. A higher percentage of voters today say inflation and the economy in general are getting worse. Voters also feel worse about other employment-related issues, including job security, job availability, and wages.

NEW: Voters continue to report that they are paying more for goods, with a large spike in the percentage who say they are paying more for gas. Voters also say they are paying more for groceries and utility bills. www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2026/5/...

“When voters learn about Kennedy’s efforts to tear down these vital services for millions of American seniors and disabled people, they immediately shift their opinions against him by 26 points on net.” Read the full piece from Matthew Cortland here: www.dataforprogress.org/insights/202...

NEW DFP Insights from @matthewcort.land: “While attacking Kennedy on his anti-vaccine policies is still convincing to voters, there is an overwhelming advantage to attacking him on his administration’s cuts to Medicaid and home care services.”

Why does disability policy matter? Medicaid is the program that pays for the home care services that allow disabled people — kids, adults, seniors — to live in their own homes, with their families, instead of being locked up in institutions. RFK Jr's attacks on home care are incredibly unpopular

and he cites @brettchristophers.bsky.social's The Price Is Wrong!!!

You should read this piece. Adam is right: the core theory behind the anti-ICE mobilization here in Minneapolis isn’t really a political ideology, but that neighbors are neighbors and must be protected.

They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.

ICE is writing secret memos claiming power to invade homes without warrants. They're using children as bait. They're killing. Congressional Democrats are about to vote to increase their budget by $18 billion. Call your House rep tonight. The vote may come tomorrow. www.patreon.com/posts/148814...

good morning, it's a great day to work at @dataforprogress.org -- where we stand firm in our progressive values and use public opinion to lead and persuade, rather than bowing to popularism at the expense of morality.

I have a lengthy video of a long chase yesterday, including one maniacal e-bike rider who was absolutely giving the ICE Wagoneers hell. They’d try to lose us in traffic but the bike didn’t care about traffic
