2026-02-13 14:21 UTC [L..T] Trump 'on the ropes' as he becomes increasingly overwhelmed: analysis «President Donald Trump's MAGA allies were furious when a series of polls conducted in late January or early February found that many registered voters are now giving Trump lower marks than former President Joe Biden. A Harvard CAPS/Harris poll found that 51 percent of voters believe Biden did a better job than Trump, while a poll by the conservative Rasmussen found that 48 percent of voters hold that view. [..] These polls come at a time when the 2026 midterms are drawing closer and Trump is feeling increasingly overwhelmed.»
2026-02-13 [L..T] Minnesota Demolishes Stephen Miller’s Theory of Force «Homeland Security Czar Stephen Miller’s attempt to impose his power in Minnesota, the same guy murderboating fishermen who might be carrying cocaine in the Caribbean in the name of halting fentanyl trafficking — has led to the collapse of drug trafficking cases because his attempt to subdue Minnesota by force has instead destroyed the Federal tools to impose order by law.» The administration's incompetence and "might makes right" approach in pursuing its supposed war on drugs agenda has eroded the tools to actually pursue that agenda. Even if you have a really strong hammer, not everything is a nail.
