📈 Indictments are still beneficial to Trump's campaign. Four political advertisements centered on the criminal and civil cases against the former president were tested by an anti-Trump PAC. The committee decided not to show the advertisements after concluding that they "failed to move support away from Trump." Three of them even strengthened support, contributing to Trump's campaign's anti-establishment motifs.
📜 Republicans advocate for securing borders. Senate Republicans presented border security demands, with an emphasis on reforming the refugee process, to demand money for Ukraine. They seek to formalize Trump-era rules that compelled migrants to wait outside the United States while asking for asylum, as well as raise the bar that migrants must cross in order to be eligible for asylum. At this moment, hundreds of migrants from Venezuela are traveling to the United States.
🤰 Ohioans support the right to an abortion. A state constitutional amendment guaranteeing the "right to one's own reproductive medical treatment, including... abortion" was approved by Ohio voters yesterday. Now, the state can only prohibit abortion if the fetus is deemed "viable," but the ambiguous language of the amendment shields abortion beyond this threshold if medical professionals deem it essential for the mother's "health."
WASHINGTON D.C
Democrats' worries About Joe Biden
Here is what’s going on: Leading Democrats are growing more concerned about Biden's chances of winning reelection in light of a recent spate of depressing polls. Publicly, a few influential allies are urging the president to withdraw from the contest. Others are preparing the way for a potential successor.
The worries are: Speaking on X, former Obama senior advisor David Axelrod stated that "the stakes of miscalculation here are too dramatic to ignore." Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal of Washington recently said that Biden's 2024 candidacy was "in great trouble" to MSNBC anchor Jen Psaki.
Taking action: For months, there have been rumors that Biden will retire in 2024. However, Axios reported last week that a number of well-known Democratic congressmen have started discreetly putting themselves in position to run for president in 2028— or in 2024, depending on Biden's decision—by subtly raising their national profiles.
Governors: In recent months, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer each established their own national political organizations.
Congress: In early voting states like South Carolina and New Hampshire, Congressman Ro Khanna of California and Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey have been building relationships.
Additionally, Democratic congressman from Minnesota Dean Phillips just resigned from his position in the House Democratic leadership in order to begin his unlikely primary bid against Biden.
Just in case: The aspirational Democrats on the bench, aside from Phillips, maintain that they are fully committed to Biden in 2024. However, it appears from the behind-the-scenes maneuvering that some Democrats recognize the value of having a backup plan.
2024 ELECTION
The Election Day results
Here is what’s going on: The Grand Old Party lost significant races around the nation on Tuesday, making it yet another dismal night for Republicans.
Kentucky: Andy Beshear, the Democratic incumbent governor of Kentucky, easily defeated Daniel Cameron, the candidate favored by Trump, by five percentage points to win reelection.
Pennsylvania: Democrats emerged victorious in a Pennsylvania state supreme court contest, securing a 5-2 majority on a court that may decide significant cases involving election law in 2024.
Ohio: Voters in Ohio approved a constitutional amendment that effectively removes the need for parental consent for children undergoing gender transition procedures, and legalizes abortion up until the time of delivery.
Virginia: Democrats took over the House of Delegates and kept control of the state senate in Virginia, giving them total authority over the government. This was detrimental to Republican incumbent governor Glenn Youngkin, who some thought would have been a surprise contender to unseat Trump in 2024 but wasn't on the ballot.
Money talks: For the second consecutive election year, Democrats have significantly outspent Republicans in terms of funding, which has hurt GOP candidates.
Positive: Despite an otherwise dismal evening, Virginia Republicans are said to have won every district that had gone for Biden +9 or less. It's one encouraging indication that Virginia Republicans may be able to contend in future elections.
The buzz: Some attribute the GOP's poor performance to the unpopularity of abortion restrictions, Trump's influence, issues with voter turnout, or a combination of these factors.
GEOPOLITICS
Canadians are shifting to the right
Here is what's going on: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's party is at 26% approval while the opposition Conservatives are at 43%. His party's polling is so bad that a recovery looks nearly impossible, even though elections aren't expected for another two years.
Bad historically: It is difficult to exaggerate how bad things are for Trudeau. His approval rating is barely above thirty percent, nearly half of his party is calling for his resignation, and a recent survey conducted among Canadians named him the worst prime minister in fifty years.
The bad news is that Trudeau has been in government for eight years, while his father served for roughly fifteen. It's likely that Canadians are just growing weary of the Trudeaus.
Zoom in: However, he has also fallen short on a key campaign pledge—addressing the soaring expense of housing. Additionally, he has promoted an expensive and unpopular carbon tax.
Presenting Pierre Poilievre: With a cunning candidate, the Conservative Party has grasped the opportunity.
The angle: Poilievre has shifted from criticizing Trudeau on social issues to focusing on basic economic issues, pushing "common sense" in place of what he sees as Trudeau's reckless spending. It appears to be working, as seen by his party's popularity and growing approval.
However, Poilievre faces two challenges: first, there are two years until the elections. Secondly, he has to tread carefully: acknowledge the socially conservative members of his party with a wink to keep them interested, but avoid adopting an extreme level of social conservatism because Canada is not a socially conservative nation.
On media:
The right has lambasted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for declaring that his nation will not have elections the following year.
Kim Reynolds, the well-liked Republican governor of Iowa, endorsed Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
In response to Republicans who support the war, Vivek Ramaswamy says he would need presidential appointments to sign a commitment saying "No to Neocons."
A 21-year-old man with a criminal history out of Georgia who was carrying an AR-15 was taken into custody by US Capitol police yesterday close to the Senate building.
During a news conference, family members of the hostages held by Hamas made an emotional plea for American assistance to House Republicans.
A medical examiner in California determined that the death of a Jewish man who was struck by a pro-Palestinian activist constituted a homicide.
Since Hamas's attack on Israel, the Pentagon claims that American forces have been targeted at least 40 times across the Middle East.
According to recent studies, marijuana use increases the risk of heart and cognitive issues.
