The Visibility Brigade holds a dozen Signs of Fascism in front of the downtown park in Fort Lee that actually spells out Fort Lee. Signs include using military on civilians, suppressing the vote, rewriting history, etc. at the bottom of each sign and slightly smaller print. It says this is fascism.

The Democrats currently have a 14-point lead against the Republicans among registered voters nationally on the 2026 generic congressional ballot question. This has changed considerably. Since 2022, voters have divided about which partyโ€™s candidate they would support. Asked at the tail end of the nationโ€™s longest government shutdown, a plurality of Americans say they place most of the blame for the shutdown on congressional Democrats. However, President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans do not walk away unscathed, with six in ten blaming either the President or the GOP in Congress.

2026 Midterm Elections
If the 2026 election for Congress were held today, which party's candidate are you more likely to vote for in your district:
NPR/PBS News/Marist Poll Registered Voters. Interviews conducted November 10th through November 13th, 2025, n=1,291 MOE +/- 3.1 percentage points. Totals may not add to 100% due to rounding.
A majority of registered voters nationally (55%) say they would support the Democratic candidate for Congress in their district, if the 2026 congressional elections were held today. 41% would support the Republican, and 3% would back another candidate. Among independents, the Democrats (61%) have a +33-point advantage over the Republicans (28%).

This is the first time in more than three years that Democrats have had a notable advantage on the congressional generic ballot question. When last asked in November of 2024, registered voters divided, 48% to 48%. The last time the Democrats had a noteworthy advantage on this question was in June of 2022 when the Democrats were +7 among registered voters.

39% of Americans blame the Democrats in Congress for the government shutdown. 34% place responsibility on President Trump, and 26% blame congressional Republicans.

While 80% of Republicans blame congressional Democrats, 49% of Democrats blame President Trump. An additional 40% of Democrats point a finger at the Republicans in Congress. Among independenโ€ฆ
