President Donald Trump dropped a pair of bold-faced boasts among his flurry of social media posts on Friday night dclaring himself the “king” of his most unpopular policy. “Even Fake News CNN is praising the DROP in Mortgage Interest Rates!” Trump wrote in the late-night message. That post included a segment from Thursday’s edition of CNN News Central crediting lower mortgage rates to a Trump policy that some have criticized as a short-term fix. Each post featured a black-and-white portrait of Trump glaring at the camera behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office. PRESIDENT DONALD J.

And so I think that the Trump position is going to be an artificially high indicator of the popularity of MAGA policies, that the actual indicator of MAGA policies is going to be much more indicated by in some senses, although I think issue polling is often kind of quasi garbage.

Democrats are seizing on the moment to demand reforms to ICE as a condition for their support on any new DHS funding. In the Senate, Republicans need at least seven Democrats to vote with them to advance a DHS funding bill, in order to clear a filibuster.

After Fox News pushed the Trump administration’s propaganda in its coverage of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent’s deadly January 7 shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, the network has used its chyrons during the ensuing protests to demonize demonstrators, accuse Democratic officials of inciting violence, and declare “Dems at war with America itself.” Fox’s characterization of the protests serves to suggest a pretext for President Donald Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act, which he threatened to do in a January 15 Truth Social post.
