This is why I have doubts about a "blue wave" in November.

Iran has shaken Trump's support - is his loyal base sticking with him?
He believes Trump and the administration are "doing a great job" but there are "too many people trying to fight him."
"[He said] he would get the gas prices under control, and they were for a while," says Overstreet. "He said he was gonna get food prices down, but he has no control over that. The president is basically a puppet for Congress and the Senate.
"His hands are tied, to a certain extent."
It's not that people here don't complain about high gas and food prices, inflation and other economic woes - it's just they don't blame Trump for any of it.
"He's done good on some things; I think he needs to check his advisers and see on some things," says Robinson. "I think he's advised wrong on some things."

Munitions for the war are made in Kingsport, Tennessee, where some of the president's most loyal supporters are wrestling with higher prices.

It was not a lack of Intel, he fired the people that would have told him the truth and fired those remaining that would tell him the truth, he refused to listen to them.

I have doubts is because we are in August now.
To DATE who have I heard from via e-mail or texts or even seen ads from of those who are running. Talarico.
NOTHING from anyone else running for office including the guys running for the House seat in the district that I live in.
Heck NOT even a peep from the GOP guys running.
How are you this silent? Harris and Beto were running ads and promoting non-stop at the this time in most areas.
And I STILL don't trust folks. All these Democrats who I have seen win in special elections seem to share one COMMON trait.
They don't look like a black person. I have seen blacks win primaries like Allred and Justin in Tennessee. I am NOT seeing some win the big one.
Will all these folks who complain SHOW UP or sit the couch because we STILL got folks wanting to teach Democrats a lesson by not voting or having an issue with a biracial woman running for president.
I am STILL waiting to hear what lesson Kamala Harris was suppose to learn? Was it worth all the damage we have seen?
Same here.

Iran says the Strait of Hormuz is shut down. The Trump administration says 9 million barrels a day are still getting out 
The U.S. and Iran remain deadlocked over reopening the Strait of Hormuz as each side tries to see how long the other can hold out, and signs of significant oil flows out of the Persian Gulf indicate President Donald Trump is betting he has additional leeway.
In the past week, the administration has pushed back against the narrative that Iran has virtually shut down the critical choke point with the threat of missiles and drones.
That’s as traffic data since the U.S.-Iran ceasefire collapsed has shown just a trickle of ships are openly transiting the strait, suggesting another supply shock ahead for global energy markets. But more tankers are sailing “dark,” meaning their transponders have been turned off and are no longer broadcasting their location.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright said on Tuesday that the seven-day average for oil leaving the strait was almost 9 million barrels per day and credited the U.S. military as well as Gulf allies.
When combined with another 5 million to 7 million barrels per day shipped via newly upgraded pipelines and export facilities, total oil flows average about 15 million barrels per day, he added in a post on X. That compares with 20 million barrels that were exported daily before the war.
Similarly, a U.S. official told Axios on Sunday that about 8 million barrels are quietly exiting the Gulf each night through a southern lane in the Strait of Hormuz with help from the U.S. military.

There is noting wrong with wanting or demanding something for your vote as far as policies goes, but a person have to actual talk to be people on the local and state level to communicate this without naming calling and thinking that their one vote should be consider the difference maker in a politician forming a policy. Getting on social media may not be the best way to communicate with politicians to get your point of view across though. I will never forget that I had to set up for a local council person for an open forum and no one showed up, but yet people will get on social media and complain about a politician doing something (locally).

The supremes bended the knee to the orange devil!
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is allowing the White House to continue construction on President Donald Trump’s $400 million ballroom project for now. Roberts signed a temporary order on Friday allowing work to continue while the court considers an emergency appeal from the Trump administration. Lower courts had ordered a halt to the project, finding that it must have congressional approval.

Farmers still vote for him!
The president said his administration will allow up to 300,000 metric tons of ground beef to be imported without an “out-of-quota tariff” in the next 90 days.
The imported product would be sold at 25 percent below market price — a move Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie (R) called a “slap in the face to American cattlemen & consumers.”
“Worse than socialism! Dumping foreign beef in U.S. markets can temporarily lower prices but it won’t incentivize American farmers to raise more beef,” Massie wrote on social media.
The GOP lawmaker urged the Trump administration to bring back labels indicating which countries products were imported from and called on Congress to pass his Processing Revival and Intrastate Meat Exemption (PRIME) Act.
The PRIME Act would permit states to allow farmers and ranchers to slaughter their livestock at local slaughterhouses and reduce reliance on the select meat processing centers approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

By the time it gets to the court for them to hear it, it'll be done.
