Trump’s Anger over Prices Goes Nuclear as Fresh Polls Show Him Tanking As Trump’s inflation rants grow more unhinged amid brutal new polls for him, an economics writer explains why Trump is ill-suited for the crisis that might be coming—and why the bottom might be about ...

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll:

Overall econ approval: 36-64
On tariffs: 37-63
On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!)

"We’re looking at a really grim downward spiral for Trump," says @timothynoah.bsky.social. All on the pod:

Oh my.

James Talarico is incredibly skilled in dismantling Christian Nationalists.

Get this man in the Senate.

A tweet from “Jack Cocchiariella @JDCocchiariella” reads: “It’s always the people you most expect.” Below it is a tweet from “Right Wing Cope @RightWingCope” that says: “Police busted an ICE agent for sexting minors,” followed by a skull emoji. The attached image shows two uniformed police officers at a press conference. One officer holds up a printed photo of a man, displaying it to the camera.

Ain’t that the truth.

All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why aren’t you celebrating the ceasefire??

Because we knew it wouldn’t last. But even I didn’t think it’d be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.

Always keep your cameras rolling. Federal officials are scheduled to appear in court today, where they’ll face questions over whether the government breached a prior order by deploying tear gas during immigration enforcement operations in the Chicago area.

I am done with all performative politicians. Tell me you have drafted a bill that prevents this bullshit in the future. Start with NO SALARY FOR ELECTED OFFICIALS DURING A SHUT DOWN.

A tweet from MeidasTouch reads: “She can’t work for her constituents because you won’t swear her into her job. My god these people.” Below, a tweet from Aaron Rupar quotes Mike Johnson saying: “Rep. Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office.” The image shows a CNN broadcast with two men in split-screen — anchor Jake Tapper on the left and Mike Johnson on the right — with a headline reading: “GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN DRAGS INTO 16TH DAY.”

The Epstein Files must be really bad for his boss.

There’s nothing more patriotic than voting – and our democracy is stronger when more Americans participate.

Today is the last day to register to vote before the November 4th election, so head to pa.gov/vote to check your registration and ensure you can make your voice heard.

In the middle of all Trump’s distractions, pay attention to the fundamental issue:

While the richest people are getting richer, tens of millions of people are struggling to pay for rent & groceries.

Now 15 million Americans are going to be thrown off health care. Unacceptable.

No Kings Day message to Trump: Other than your coterie of ass-kissers, nobody likes you.
