The U.S. lost 92,000 jobs in February.
According to our polling, 24% of Americans say Trump has made the economy better since becoming president, vs 53% who say he's made things worse.
Voters say 2:1 Trump isn't focused enough on the things they care about.

Another terrible monthly jobs report for the Trump Administration and they don’t have a pandemic to blame it on.

92,000 jobs lost in February. One has to wonder how much worse it really is?

So, Trump is down to 38% approval in a new YouGov poll?
When Nixon hit just 38% approval in a Gallup poll, he was ~13 months from the eve of being impeached by the House.

πŸ‘‡πŸŽ―πŸ’― This is the inescapable conclusion that <everyone> in πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ politics & the entire national media cannot bring themselves to make. There is nothing Trump can do at this point to un-disqualify himself, & there are no laws Congress can pass to fix it.

The <only> mechanism is impeachment & removal.

Tillis is retiring, and I wish he would have run out of fucks to give long before today. But I'll take this, absolutely. More, please.

The war's limited objectives:
-Destroy nuclear program
-Degrade ballistic missile capabilities
-Bring the armies of the world together to fight at the End Times and bring about the return of Christ

Congrats to these 4 strong law firms that refused to knuckle under. And to Princeton, Harvard, Wesleyan etc who've used their fame and resources to set that example in education. And governors and mayors. And district court and circuit-court judges. AND AMERICANS BY THE MILLIONS, across the country.

One of the weirder rationales for bombing Iran was to protect Americans in Iran, which seems ridiculous on its face. Hundreds of thousands of US citizens do live in the Middle East, and they are more likely to be in locations like this than in Iran.

"No stupid rules of engagement" is how you shoot down three of your own F-15s in one day. Just a shocking display of martial ineptitude.

The U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran are illegal.

Iran's attacks in Gulf States are illegal.

The U.K. defending Gulf States is legal, but allowing the U.S. to use its bases is illegal.

In short, everyone is violating international law and should stop.

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America.

And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.
