Donald Trump has been running propaganda ads starring, well, himself as a way to help the GOP in the midterms. The ads are government-funded, and one official even suggested that the payment scheme is partly designed to get media attention to the ads, amplifying them further. It's appallingly corrupt and potentially illegal. But, amusingly, they're backfiring: A new Quinnipiac poll shows that Trump is more toxic for the GOP than we thought. It finds his approval at an abysmal 34 percent, and at 31 percent on the economy, a record low for him. Worse, Democrats now lead Republicans on the economy, international conflicts and immigration, three traditional GOP strengths, underscoring just how big a drag he's become. We talked to David Corn, author of the new book How Russia Won and a New Republic piece on Trumpian propaganda. We discuss how badly Trump is screwing the GOP, why those TV ads are destined to fail, why he'll grow more dangerous as Election Day approaches, and how to prepare for it.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to a new poll of Democrats showing way too many lefties would be happy if President Trump died or was removed in a military coup, the strangely chummy relationship between Trump and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the latest bizarre twists in the Nikole Hannah-Jones saga with NYC schools, and new attempts at major fraud in Minnesota.First, they're disturbed by a new poll of Democrats showing a majority would like to see President Trump die in his sleep or be removed by a military coup. A third would be happy to see Trump assassinated. Jim also notes the huge chunk of lefties who say they wouldn't care either way if those things happened.Next, they scratch their heads after another oddly friendly meeting between Trump and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. What benefit does Trump see in that considering how often he bashes other Democrats? Jim also explains why the timing of Monday's meeting was not ideal for New York Republicans.Then, they highlight a couple more ironic elements of the Nikole Hannah-Jones story involving NYC schools, including her husband's role with the school system and the arrogrant comment that Hannah-Jones could get any problems fixed because she wrote for the New York Times.Finally, they discuss the latest attempt at rampant fraud in Minnesota - this time for money designated for businesses impacted by ICE operations earlier this year.Please visit our great sponsors:BetterHelpSign up and get 10% off at http://BetterHelp.com/3ML and start feeling better.New episodes every weekday.

The host expresses enthusiasm for cooler autumn weather following extended 90-degree summer heat before transitioning into political and local issues. Highlighting a recent poll, the speakers detail a surge in extreme views within the Democratic Party, noting that majorities support a military coup or impeachment to remove Donald Trump, and a growing percentage identify as socialist. The discussion emphasizes a population exodus from major democratic-led states like New York due to taxes and living costs, pointing out that local governments are falling under socialist leadership—such as Nithya Raman's plan to co-govern Los Angeles with the Democratic Socialists of America. Lastly, the broadcast addresses a critical situation in California, where Chinese gangs affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party have allegedly taken control of an entire county to illegally grow marijuana contaminated with banned toxic chemicals, polluting local water supplies while state leadership allegedly refuses to intervene.

For nearly a decade, President Donald Trump's popularity in Missouri was a boon for the state's Republican Party.

St. Louis University's Steven Rogers joins “The Politically Speaking Hour on St. Louis on the Air” to talk about the poll results and what they could mean for the Nov. 3 elections.

Opportunity's not letting polling figures get it down. The latest Taxpayers' Union-Curia poll has the Party slipping below the Parliament threshold - on 4.5 percent. National leads at 29, Labour's down to 25.9, but the Greens have climbed to 13.9, ACT is at 10.5 percent and NZ First is on 8.4. Opportunity leader Qiulae Wong says they'll keep working to earn Kiwis' trust. "If we can't get anywhere with that largest party, if they're not going to agree to those things, then we will go and speak to the next largest party."

Both major parties took a hit in the recent Taxpayers' Union-Curia poll, with both Labour and National dropping below 30 percent. National holds the lead at 29 percent, while Labour has tumbled to 25.9 percent - and the Greens have jumped to 13.9, ACT is on 10.5 and Opportunity has fallen all the way to 4.5 percent. National's Nicola Willis says the party is committed to reminding voters that it aims to fix the basics and build the future - and to highlight the proposals of the opposition parties. "We've been delivering a lot of policies, whether that's universal KiwiSaver, extending paid parental leave, extending eligibility for first home loans, reducing the student loan repayment rate - we've been delivering a lot."

This episode of the podcast is a wild ride, covering everything from calendar adjustments to pheromone maxing, and even a possible Garth Brooks sighting at the Grizzly Rose. Ross and Jeana start off by thanking a listener for sending in a tip about a quirky national day, Calendar Adjustment Day, which commemorates the switch from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar in 1752. The host shares an interesting fact about how the British stayed on the Julian calendar until 1752, and how this led to a 11-day adjustment. The episode also delves into a fascinating conversation with a writer who's been researching the ethanol industry and its impact on the environment. Ross and guest discuss the pros and cons of using ethanol as a fuel source, and how it's been a contentious issue for decades. They also touch on the recent increase in gas prices and how it's affecting the midterms. But that's not all - the episode also covers some lighter topics, like a creepy TikTok trend called pheromone maxing, where some Gen Zers are embracing their natural body odor as a way to attract the opposite sex. Ross shares a humorous anecdote about his son's experience with cologne and the surprising trend of young men buying expensive fragrances. The episode wraps up with a discussion about a new poll from the Colorado Polling Institute, which reveals some interesting insights into Denverites' attitudes towards the city's mayor, transportation, and business. Ross also shares some data about the state's reliance on fee revenue and how it compares to other states.

Send us Fan MailBill Bartholomew talks with Katie Sonder, Associate Director and Fellow at the Salve Regina University Pell Center, about the center's August 2026 Voices of Value poll and what it says about Rhode Island's Democratic and Republican primary races. The conversation focuses on the headline McKee-Folkes result, the unusually high number of undecided voters, and how academic polling can fill a gap left by shrinking local media polling.Bill Bartholomew frames the poll, questions the methodology, and argues that academic polling is becoming more important as traditional outlets poll less often. Katie Sonder explains the survey design, the likely-voter screen, the two-step question process for undecided respondents, and why the Pell Center launched the project in the first place.Key topicsIn this episode, the main headline is the Democratic gubernatorial primary poll showing Helena Folkes ahead of incumbent Governor Dan McKee, 48% to 28%.Katie Sonder says the most surprising finding is the size of the undecided bloc, especially in down-ballot races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General, where nearly half of likely voters are unsure.Sonder explains the poll's two-question method for undecideds: respondents first pick among candidates, then are asked again if they have to choose.The Pell Center's Voices of Value project is designed to track Rhode Island views on state issues and national issues, including democracy, polarization, media habits, legislation, and bridge reconstruction.Bill and Katie discuss the broader role of academia in polling and journalism as local media budgets shrink and fewer outlets produce their own statewide polls.Sonder says the Pell Center sees the poll as a public good and a bridge between the university and the community.On the Democratic side, Sonder points to crowded fields and lower name recognition as reasons for uncertainty in races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General.Bill notes that in the Lieutenant Governor race, Sabina Matos and Zay Collin are near the top, but the undecided share remains very high.In the Attorney General race, Kim Ahern leads the pack, but 46% of voters are still unsure.The Senate discussion turns to the three-way race involving Jack Reed, Connor Burbridge, and Dr. Luis Daniel Munoz, with Bill arguing that Burbridge's 12% reflects real campaign momentum.On the Republican side, Sonder explains that the smaller sample size means a larger margin of error, but Elaine Poirino still holds a notable lead over Aaron and Jukian.Bill emphasizes the transparency of the Pell Center's materials, including the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions.Timestamps00:00 - New Pell Center poll and the McKee-Folkes Democratic primary headline00:44 - Katie Sonder on the biggest surprise: the undecided vote02:30 - How the poll's two-step undecided question works04:49 - Why the Pell Center launched Voices of Value06:03 - Academia, journalism, and the shrinking local polling ecosystem07:14 - Why the Pell Center sees polling as a public service10:48 - How Katie thinks about reliability and academic rigor11:30 - Why down-ballot races have so many undecided voters12:40 - Using the poll to inform voters and candidate research13:10 - Jack Reed race, Connor Burbridge, and campaign momentum14:10 - Lieutenant governor race read: Matos, Zay Collin, and weak showings14:40 - Republican primary polling challenges and Elaine Poirino's lead15:28 - Sample size, margin of error, and confidence on the GOP side16:44 - Why the Republican race remains too fluid to call18:39 - Where to find the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions19:24 - Transparency, expertise, and why the poll matters in the civic landscape Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Trump just reinstated the naval blockade on Iran and declared the United States the guardian of the Strait of Hormuz — with a 20% charge on cargo for the protection service. You need to see what this changes before it starts showing up at the pump. The Strait of Hormuz carries one-fifth of the world's seaborne oil every day. Iranian threats and attacks on ships are driving up energy prices and hitting working families. After the June deal collapsed and Iran resumed harassing commercial traffic, Trump ordered strikes and brought back the blockade with this 20% cargo reimbursement policy. It's America saying we're done footing the bill alone while allies with navies do little — the ships using the strait should help cover the security costs. Pat also covered: Bronko Nagurski — the toughest football player of all time.

Do you think this 20% cargo fee is a fair way to share the burden of protecting the Strait of Hormuz?

B-52 Bomber Crashes In California. Trump At NYC Parade? Knicks At White House? Primaries Tues In Alabama, Dc, Georgia And Oklahoma. NYPD Rise To The Moment. Independents have hit 47% of the country. Republicans are at 26%. Democrats at 27%. That's not a trend line — that's a tectonic shift, and the new CNN poll out today confirms what this show has been saying for years: the angry middle isn't homeless, it isn't tribeless, it's free. Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the numbers, what they mean for the 2026 midterms, and why younger voters, male voters, and white voters without college degrees are walking away from the GOP — and not running to the Democrats. From there, it's a full no-BS briefing. Iran has de facto control over the Strait of Hormuz and Trump is negotiating what looks like a surrender. Eight crew members are dead after a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base — a story buried under the noise. Closed primaries on Tuesday continue to disenfranchise nearly half the electorate. The NYPD is rising to meet a wild week of Knicks, World Cup, and parade security. And the big question hangs over Thursday: will Trump show up and shit on New York's joy, or stay in his tower?
