'Whoo!' CNN host astonished by bracing poll numbers showing Trump as an 'anchor' for GOP

A new polling analysis suggests Democrats' uphill battle to flip the four seats needed for Senate control may be more winnable than previously thought — thanks largely to a dramatic drop in President Donald Trump's popularity in the states that matter most.

CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten examined six pivotal Senate battlegrounds — Alaska, Maine, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio and Texas — and found Trump's net approval rating has swung nearly 20 points in the negative direction since 2024, when he carried these states by an average of eight points, and some by double digits.

'Deep irony': Expert says Supreme Court just rug-pulled core obsession of MAHA movement

President Donald Trump brought anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. into his coalition in 2024, creating the so-called "Make America Healthy Again" movement by wooing a broad swathe of health activists and medicine deniers to join his cause. But the Supreme Court he helped appoint just dealt a massive blow to that movement, Dr. Vin Gupta noted to MS NOW's Jonathan Lemire on Thursday's edition of "Morning Joe."

Specifically, they blocked lawsuits from going forward against Bayer-Monsanto, over an herbicide at the heart of years of cancer litigation. While the actual scientific evidence that glyphosate-based herbicides cause cancer is limited, the legal crusade against it, and in particular against Bayer-Monsanto's Roundup weed killer, has been a fixture in health circles.

Who has a 401(k)?”

Analyst stunned by 'subtle' line in lawsuit against Trump admin: 'Scathing thing to say'

Scott MacFarlane, the chief Washington correspondent for MeidasTouch, was stunned on Wednesday after reading a "subtle" line tucked away in a new lawsuit against the Trump administration.
