Reuters Doesn't
Like Their Poll on President Trump's Approval Rating
Looks like Reuters
is in bed with CNN and MSNBC. Get a result you don't like and simply
push it away.
A poll shows that
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has spiked since April 27
— prompting the Reuters/Ipsos polling team to quarantine their
data.
“Every series
of polls has the occasional outlier and in our opinion this is one,”
the pollster announced. “So, while we are reporting the findings in
the interest of transparency, we will not be announcing the start of
a new trend until we have more data to validate this pattern.”
Go ahead, whine all
you want about the source, it won't change the results one bit!
The Wall Street
Journal, New York Times, and Washington Posts the Only 3 Newspapers
to Survive
According to Warren
Buffett. seems all of the 28 papers he bought in 2011 are in the
tank. All one has to do is enter a public dining facility and look
around to see how many, if any are reading print newspapers or
magazines. Usually just old coots like me who don't own smart
phones.
Buffett’s
latest pronouncement on the newspapers was actually an improvement
from his previous position. Earlier this year, the billionaire told
CNBC that only two newspapers had an “assured future” at that
time, leaving the Washington Post off of his list. In the months
since that appearance, Buffett’s opinion of the Jeff Bezos-owned
paper has risen.
The 2016 election
was far from a fluke
This is a very
interesting piece that describes who voted for Trump in 2016 and who
will turn out to support him in the midterms. These are not people
who pollsters can't easily identify. I have a hunch that, like me,
when a pollster calls, will give responses directly opposite to what
I/they will do.
On the back roads
and side streets of places like Erie, Pa., and Kenosha, Wis., emerge
blue-collar optimists, evangelical pragmatists and suburban
vacillators who turned the dials just enough to shock the body
politic, leading to an emerging populist-conservative alliance that
wrecked the old partisan framework.
Far from a fluke,
the 2016 election was a product of the tectonic plate-grinding of our
society — a backlash against globalism, secularism and coastal
elitism. An August 2017 survey of 2,000 self-reporting Trump voters
in the Rust Belt, commissioned by me and my co-author, revealed their
motivations, priorities and decision making, and reinforced what we
had found in our interviews.
These are the Trump
cadres:
Hidden in plain
sight
Rough rebounders
Christian soldiers
Red blooded and blue
collared
Girl gun power

Would You Believe
a Rambo 5?
It's official.
Stallone's on board for yet another John Rambo blood-soaked, kick-ass
flick. Can we hardly wait?
Stallone is
officially on board return as the titular super-soldier in the fifth
installment of the 36-year-old blockbuster franchise, according to
Screen Daily; although it’s unclear who will direct the next
installment, production is expected to begin in September. But does
does that really matter? It’s Rambo: we know what we’re going to
get — even if this installment comes with a very modern plotline.
Here’s the
basic premise of the film, according to Screen Daily: Our favorite
aging Vietnam war hero has settled into pseudo-retirement, living on
a ranch in Arizona and taking the odd job when and where he can until
Maria, a long-time family friend, comes to him for help. Her
grand-daughter has gone missing after traveling to Mexico for a party
— and, because it’s Rambo, he goes right back to war, this time
against agents of the country’s nefarious drug cartels.

The cure for
obesity, heart disease, and anxiety? Puppies!
Another one of these
high-flautin scientific studies to tell us what we already know. Pets
make us feel better about life and that improves our health. But,
just to play by the rules, here's a snippet:
Virginia
Commonwealth University offers therapy dogs to students during finals
week. Experts there found that the dogs significantly reduced
pre-exam jitters.
All this research
exemplifies the interconnection between human health, animal health,
and the environment. That interconnection is the foundation of the
One Health movement, to which a number of universities, including St.
George's, adhere in their teaching and research efforts.
Medical research
shows that pets are the perfect antidote to all sorts of illnesses
and ailments. It's time to unleash this knowledge across our
healthcare system.

Trump Set to
Unveil $15 Billion Spending Cut To Congress
Everybody talks
about the Omnibus Bill the President signed but ignore his comments
at the time about a lot of spending not being right. It was either
sign or shut down the government. So, what is he doing? He's
following the leads of Presidents Ford and Clinton by sending a bill
to Congress to rescind federal funding.
“Over 1000
rescissions have been sent to congress under this authority,” said
a Senior Administration Official. “This is the largest proposed by
a President.”
The money comes
from unused funds from places like the Innovative Tech Loan program,
a railroad program that expired in 2012, excess funds from the 2015
Ebola outbreak and tech assistance after hurricane Sandy.
"The Tax Cut
Will Decimate Government Income! Balloon the National Debt."
So claimed the
DimocRATs when it was passed into law. They also whined that it would
hurt individual taxpayers and cause the National Debt to soar -
Ignoring the gigantic rise under Obama.
But it isn't quite
working ot that way.
U.S. Budget Just
Made History: Best Month Ever
In April, the
federal government took in a record sum of $515 billion in taxes,
according to a newly released Congressional
Budget Office report. During that time, we spent $297 billion.
Yes, you read that correctly: We actually took in more than we spent
— a lot more. That $218 billion surplus is, in fact, a new record,
beating the previous record set back in 2001 ($190 billion) by $28
billion.
As The
Washington Times points out, the surplus surprised CBO analysts,
who were predicting about $40 billion less, though some of that has
to do with a shift in timing of payments. In its report, the CBO
suggests that the unexpectedly high tax revenues was a result of
"stronger-than-expected" economic growth last year and in
early 2018.
"Those
payments were mostly related to economic activity in 2017 and may
reflect stronger-than-expected income growth in that year,"
reads the summary. "Part of the strength in receipts also may
reflect larger-than-anticipated payments for economic activity in
2018. The reasons for the added revenues will be better understood as
more detailed information becomes available later this year."

news for the DimocRATs @
