DATA: Joe Biden’s Favorability Just Hit ANOTHER RECORD LOW.

Joe Biden‘s favorability rating among Americans has hit a record low. According to a new survey from Gallup, just 37 percent of Americans say they view the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent favorably. This is the lowest Biden’s rating has been since 2007, prior to his tenure as Barack Obama‘s vice president. Meanwhile, nearly two-thirds of Americans view Biden as unfavorable.

The favorability trends among independent voters are even more concerning for Biden ahead of the 2024 presidential election in November. In June, just 33 percent of independents said they had a favorable view of the Democrat incumbent, with 64 percent saying they viewed him unfavorably.

Meanwhile, former President Donald J. Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican nominee, scored his highest favorability among Americans at large since April 2020, with 46 percent. Trump’s unfavorability sits at 52 percent. Even more concerning for Biden is Trump’s strengthening position with independent voters. In June, 41 percent of independents said they viewed Trump favorably, while 55 said they viewed him unfavorably.

Additionally, the survey found that six in ten Americans say they disagree with Joe Biden and his government’s stances on key issues that matter most to them. Conversely, respondents were evenly split on whether they agreed with former President Trump on key issues. For months, national polling data has shown significant voter anger with Biden’s handling of illegal immigration, border security, inflation, and the overall economy.

The National Pulse recently reported that election data guru Nate Silver acknowledged the 2024 presidential race is no longer a toss-up, with former President Trump now being the statistical favorite to win. Silver’s election model currently has Trump’s odds of victory in November at 65.7 percent.

Democrat Steals Election Machine Keys, Security Fob in Maricopa County.

Election worker Walter Ringfield Jr. was arrested for stealing keys and a security fob used to access voting tabulation machines in Maricopa County, Arizona. Ringfield, an Arizona State University political science graduate, is “a registered Democrat who ran for Senate this cycle as a Democrat,” according to Kari Lake advisor Caroline Wren. She cites local news reports showing Walter Ringfield Jr. running in this year’s Democratic Senate primary.

The Ringfield incident raises further suspicions about election security in Maricopa County. Maricopa officials insist their election processes are secure, but the fact Ringfield was able to lift crucial security equipment lying in the open on an abandoned desk suggests this is not the case.

After the gubernatorial contest between Kari Lake and Katie Hobbs, evidence emerged showing Maricopa officials verifying mail-in ballots without checking signatures, often from their private offices and homes, without election observers present.

The Arizona Senate has previously threatened the Maricopa County Board with contempt for failing to comply with an investigation into its election equipment.

DEMOCRAT SPIN. 

The far-left MeidasTouch Network claims Ringfield is an “apparent Trump supporter.” The White House-linked group responsible for the bloodbath hoax against Donald Trump notes that someone has wiped all of Ringfield’s social media profiles, except for what they claim is his Truth Social account.

The @imjustheresoiwontbefined account has “reposts from pro-Trump MAGA accounts like The Epoch Times, Gateway Pundit, The Babylon Bee, and Catturd,” MeidasTouch asserts. However, Wren notes that “the header on [Ringfield’s] Truth Social account is literally a picture of him and [CNN analyst] Bakari Sellers.”

A post on the account shows Ringfield criticizing Trump for ending the Iran nuclear deal. Most of the account’s posts are short non-sequiturs such as “We are a nation built upon enslaved immigrants,” “BIPOC,” and “TERF you’re whack.”

Data Guru Says U.S. Election ‘No Longer Toss-Up,’ 65% Chance Trump Wins.

Data guru and the former head of the election analysis website FiveThirtyEight, Nate Silver, has unveiled his 2024 presidential election model. Silver’s analysis suggests the 2024 election contest between the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent Joe Biden and former President Donald J. Trump isn’t a toss-up—with the model giving Trump an over 65 percent chance of winning in November.

At the heart of Silver’s notion that the election is no longer a toss-up but leans toward Trump is that while national polls show a close popular vote race, state polls show a race tilting away from Biden. He writes: “…if Biden loses Georgia, Arizona and Nevada — and he trails badly in each — he’ll need to win all three of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and not just one of them.”

He notes that while the three Rust Belt state electorates “are pretty heavily correlated, they aren’t perfectly correlated”—meaning sweeping all three is relatively difficult. ” In our simulations, Biden wins at least one of these states 54 percent of the time. But he wins all three of them in only 32 percent of simulations,” Silver contends.

Silver couches his model, noting that while there is an “[arbitrageable] difference between, say, a 50 percent chance of an event happening and a 60 percent chance,” even the probability of something happening at “a 60 percent chance nevertheless implies a high degree of uncertainty.” He goes on to explain that while the race remains close, it has reached a point where he no longer considers it a toss-up between the two candidates.

Interestingly, the former New York Times journalist and data scientist is refreshingly honest about how preference bias can impact election models—though he claims he has sought to avoid this to the extent he can. “The candidate who I honest-to-God think has a better chance (Trump) isn’t the candidate I’d rather have win (Biden),” Silver writes regarding his predictive model.

Zuckerberg is Attempting to Rig the Election Again. This Time Through Instagram!?

Mark Zuckerberg’s Instagram is limiting users’ exposure to “political content” ahead of the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Instagram had already imposed a requirement to “opt-in” to seeing political content, described in the app as content “likely to mention governments, elections or social topics that affect a group of people and/or society at large,” from users they do not follow. Now, the app restores political content limits every time users exit the app, requiring them to opt back in again through an obtuse series of menus.

A spokesman for Instagram parent company Meta claims users who have previously opted in to political content being opted back out again is an “error,” and the platform is “working on getting it fixed.” However, users were still being opted out of political content each time they exit the app as of the time of writing, 9:55 AM EST.

Zuckerberg and his platforms, principally Facebook, Instagram, and failing X (formerly Twitter) rival Threads, have been accused of election interference for many years.

The Facebook founder’s Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) pours vast sums of ‘Zuckerbucks’ into what are supposed to be improved voter access initiatives, such as new absentee ballot drop boxes. However, the schemes overwhelmingly benefit Democratic-leaning areas, with election integrity groups arguing they grant leftists greater voting access than conservatives and are, therefore, unlawful.

The CTCL is already intervening in this year’s election, directing election officials on how to use public money to “improve election operations.”

Facebook has also censored Americans at the Biden regime’s direction, particularly on the question of vaccine safety.

49 States Are Now Supplying ‘Non-Citizens’ With Voter Registration Forms.

Illegal aliens and other “non-citizens” can receive voter registration forms without needing to show proof of citizenship in at least 49 states. They can use these forms to access welfare benefits and obtain driver’s licenses and mail-in ballots. Only Arizona has passed a law preventing this—but it applies only to state forms, not federal ones.

The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993 mandates that states facilitate voter registration at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and welfare offices. These agencies must provide voter registration forms alongside application papers. Without a federal law requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration forms, migrants can simply claim to be U.S. citizens to register to vote, easily bypassing the official ban on non-citizens voting.

The House Administration Committee has approved the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act to combat this. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) also emphasizes the need for increased enforcement measures. However, with foreign aid and spending bills desired by the Democrat-controlled Senate and the White House already passed, the GOP has little chance of compelling them to pass new election integrity bills.

Federal prosecutions, state investigations, and audits reveal numerous non-citizens registered to vote. Former Federal Election Commission (FEC) member Hans von Spakovsky highlights various instances of non-Americans voting illegally in elections at different levels.

Polling suggests at least a fifth of mail-in ballots in 2020 were tainted by fraud, compromising the legitimacy of an election that came down to a few thousand votes in a handful of states.

DATA: Trump Annihilates Gavin Newsom in Hypothetical 2024 Match-Up.

New data shows former President Donald J. Trump handily defeated Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) in a hypothetical 2024 presidential contest. Newsom has repeatedly been floated as a potential candidate should the 81-year-old Democratic incumbent Joe Biden need to be replaced as the Democratic presidential nominee.

According to the survey by Rasmussen Reports, Trump leads a national contest with 50 percent of the vote compared to Newsom‘s 38 percent. Additionally, the California governor only registers a 35 percent approval rating—with 45 percent of respondents saying they hold an unfavorable view of Newsom. Former President Trump leads the California Democrat across several key voter demographics, capturing 44 percent of female voters to Newsom’s 43 percent. Additionally, Trump leads with 56 percent of male voters, with Newsom at just 33 percent. Among Hispanics, Trump leads with 53 percent of the vote to Newsom’s 30 percent.

The National Pulse reported last week that there is a potential plot to replace Biden should he falter during the first presidential debate on Thursday. Biden’s cognitive and physical health has increasingly become a concern among voters and Democratic Party insiders, as the octogenarian has been frequently caught on camera appearing disoriented and confused during public events.

While Gov. Newsom has positioned himself as an influential figure in the national Democratic Party, his path to the 2024 presidential nomination is not just contingent on party leaders turning on Biden. To capture the nomination, Newsom must outmaneuver his fellow Californian, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Harris holds sway over a critical block of Democrat voters, including white and black women. Some Democratic Party insiders fear pushing Harris aside—despite her deep unpopularity—could fatally wound the campaign of any other Biden replacement.

MeidasTouch Chief Likens His Work to Political Arson, Gloats Over Posting Fake Clips.

Ron Filipkowski, Editor-in-Chief of the far-left MeidasTouch Network, has likened his organization’s behavior on social media to criminal arson, “dropping a burning ember in a dry forest” and creating a “big blaze” of fake news within hours.

MeidasTouch, praised by the Joe Biden regime as its “front lines” on social media, launched its most successful arson attack to date in March with the “bloodbath” hoax. The network deceptively edited a clip of Donald Trump talking about a metaphorical bloodbath for the auto industry under Biden and presented it as though he was threatening political violence if he loses the election in November. Biden disseminated the same misinformation.

“Right-wingers have been clipping Democrats, clipping Biden, with deceptive posts,” Filipkowski alleged, implying his own output is deceptive with the rhetorical question, “Why aren’t the Democrats doing this to Trump?”

Founded by brothers Jordan, Brett, and Ben Meiselas, linked to the Hillary Clinton campaign and accused sex trafficker Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, a.k.a. Puff Daddy, one of MeidasTouch’s early funders was the Lincoln Project. The Never Trump group was co-founded by John Weaver, who had to resign after he was accused of sexual harassment and grooming by over 20 young males, including a 14-year-old.

Another controversial MeidasTouch backer is LinkedIn billionaire Reid Hoffman. The portly plutocrat is a Democrat megadonor who has also funded Nimarata ‘Nikki’ Haley’s primary challenge against Trump, E. Jean Carroll’s lawsuit against Trump, and Fusion GPS, responsible for the Russia hoax Steele Dossier against Trump. Hoffman is also a former guest of child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s private island.

MeidasTouch hosts several highly controversial contributors, including Michael Cohen, the convicted perjuror and disbarred lawyer, and ‘Coach D,’ who believes America’s Founding Fathers were all white supremacist pedophiles.

Fact Check

‘Fact Checkers’ Have FINALLY Copped to the Charlottesville ‘Very Fine People’ Hoax.

Leftist fact-checking website Snopes has finally admitted that President Donald J. Trump did not call Neo-Nazis and white supremacists at the ‘Unite the Rally’ in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 “very fine people” and that senior Democrats, including Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer, are lying to this day about what was said.

Snopes, which is regularly pressured into changing its fact-check ratings by the Biden regime, notes that the 81-year-old Democrat “[made] Trump’s comments on Charlottesville a cornerstone of his campaign” and that Senate Majority Leader Schumer has claimed Trump “called white supremacists in Charlottesville ‘very good people.'”

The fact-checkers admitted that this is a misrepresentation because while Trump did say that some of the people protesting the removal of a statue of General Robert E. Lee were “fine people,” he was explicit that he was “not talking about the Neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally.”

Trump was actually referring to peaceful protesters concerned about historical preservation, as The National Pulse has repeatedly noted.

Snopes’s clarification on Trump’s comments vindicates the former president, who holds it up as a major hoax against him, alongside the Russiagate hoax and the more recent bloodbath hoax.

However, Biden has suggested there are “very fine people on both sides” of the ongoing college campus crisis in the U.S., which has often seen anti-Semitic demonstrators protesting against the war in Gaza clash with Jewish and pro-Israel counter-demonstrators.

“I condemn the anti-Semitic protests… I also condemn those who don’t understand what’s going on with the Palestinians,” he said in April, amid crashing support among Muslims, Jews, and younger voters.

Teamsters Union President Sean O’Brien Accepts Trump Invite To Speak At RNC.

Sean O’Brien, the president of the Teamsters Union, has accepted former President Donald J. Trump‘s invitation to speak at the Republican National Convention in mid-July. The National Pulse reported two weeks ago that O’Brien had reached out to both the Republican and Democrat convention committees regarding the prospect of addressing each party’s delegates.

Former President Trump subsequently invited O’Brien to address Republicans, which the union leader has now accepted. “Sean O’Brien, the General President of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, has accepted my invitation to speak at the RNC Convention in Milwaukee,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Friday. The presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee continued: “Our GREAT convention will unify Americans and demonstrate to the nation’s working families they come first. When I am back in the White House, the hardworking Teamsters, and all working Americans, will once again have a country they can afford to live in and be respected around the world.”

Trump concluded the announcement of O’Brien’s speaking slot by adding: “Sean, I look forward to seeing you represent the Teamsters in Milwaukee. Together we can Make America Great Again.”

Earlier this year, the Teamsters—for the first time in several election cycles—made a $10,000 contribution to the Republican National Committee (RNC). Former President Trump has made courting union voters a priority for his presidential campaign, holding a historic rally in Detroit, Michigan, last September where he laid out his vision for ‘Patriotic Protectionism.‘

With 1.3 million members, the Teamsters are one of the largest labor unions in the world. Their backing in 2024 could prove pivotal for Trump in retaking the White House from the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent, Joe Biden.

Pro-Trump Businessman Donates $50M As Trump’s Fundraising Outpaces Biden.

Billionaire mega-donor Timothy Mellon made a $50 million contribution to the pro-Trump MAGA Inc SuperPac on the same day a jury found former President Donald J. Trump guilty in the Manhattan hush money trial. Mellon’s donation makes the single largest individual campaign contribution in the 2024 election cycle. Mellon—an heir to the Mellon banking dynasty—holds an estimated wealth of $14.5 billion, according to Forbes.

A bulk of MAGA Inc.’s $68.8 million in fundraising for May came from Mellon’s donation. Overall, former President Trump and the Republican National Committee (RNC) raised over $140 million last month. Following the Manhattan conviction, the Trump campaign—seperate from the SuperPAC—announced raising nearly $53 million within 24 hours. On June 6, investors David Sacks and Chamath Palihapitiya hosted a fundraiser in San Francisco, where contributions were reportedly up to $300,000 per attendee.

Other key donors supporting Trump include hedge fund founders John Paulson and Robert Mercer, Blackstone Group CEO Steve Schwarzman, fracking pioneer Harold Hamm, and casino mogul Steve Wynn. Fundraising projections indicate this may be the most expensive election in United States history. Mellon has contributed over $100 million to political organizations this cycle, having supported Trump and independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Billionaire backers also support Joe Biden. Michael Bloomberg, former NYC mayor, has donated $19 million to Biden’s SuperPAC and an additional $929,600 to Biden’s fundraising committee. Additionally, Democrat mega-donors James Simons and Fred Eychaner have given $6.5 million to the PAC aiding House Democrats, with Simons contributing $6.6 million and Eychaner $2 million.

Biden’s campaign boasted a higher fundraising total through April, with $192 million in cash on hand compared to Trump’s $93.1 million. Meanwhile, the Trump campaign garnered more in monthly contributions in April and May outpacing the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent.
