Trump Leads Biden in ANOTHER National Poll, While DeSantis Sinks to Just 7%

Donald Trump is leading Joe Biden in another national poll, by 52 percent to 48 percent, as the elderly Democrat’s approval rating plummets to an almost 20-year low. Trump also dominates the GOP primary field, with a 59-point lead over Nimarata ‘Nikki’ Haley and a 65-point lead over Ron DeSantis.

According to the new poll, the 45th President enjoys the support of 72 percent of GOP primary voters from January 16th to January 15th. Haley is in a distant second place, at 13 percent. DeSantis, once considered Trump’s most credible rival, is in single digits at just seven percent.

Trump’s lead over Biden among independents is even stronger than his overall lead, at 46 percent support versus 35 percent.

When third-party candidates are included, Trump’s advantage over Biden shrinks only slightly, from four to three points.

Democrat-turned-independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. leads among the also-rans, on 11 percent, while far-left candidates Jill Stein and Cornel West each pick up two percent.

Biden Campaign Plans Rallies, Op-Eds, TV Ads to Demand Mass Murder of American Babies.

The Joe Biden campaign plans to put abortion “at the forefront of its reelection campaign,” vowing to “restore” Roe v. Wade and the “reproductive freedom” to kill unborn children with few or no restrictions.

Pro-abortion television and digital ads are planned for around January 22nd, the anniversary the Roe‘s ruling in 1973. Rallies featuring the President, the Vice President, and their spouses are also planned.

“Trump directly paved the way for Republican extremists across the country to enact draconian bans that are hurting women and threatening doctors,” said Biden-Harris campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez, acknowledging Trump should be credited for the pro-life advances since Roe v. Wade was overturned. Within six months of Roe being overturned, an estimated 32,000 babies’ lives had been saved by Trump and the Supreme Court Justices’ actions.

Trump has long argued that Democrats, rather than Republicans, are the extremists on abortion, condemning state lawmakers for having “cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth” during one of his State of the Union speeches.

Washington D.C., Colorado, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont, all run by Democrats, allow abortion up to birth, along with Republican-run Alaska.

BlackRock Chief: 2nd Trump Term Pushes Europe Away from Dependency on US or China.

Philipp Hildebrand, vice chairman of the nine-trillion-dollar asset management firm BlackRock, says Donald Trump’s reelection in 2024 could help the European Union learn to stand on its own feet.

Hildebrand made the remarks at the World Economic Forum (WEF) summit in Davos, Switzerland, when asked if he agreed with European Central Bank (ECB) chief Christine Lagarde that Trump is “clearly a threat” to the EU.

“Christine speaks for herself. I think the flip side of it is that this is perhaps also a wake-up call for Europe,” said Hildebrand, suggesting a second Trump administration might prompt the EU to decide whether it wants “to be a kind of independent sovereign” or to have “great dependencies, whether on China or on the U.S.”

“I see it as an opportunity for the construction of Europe,” he continued. “Clearly, if [Trump’s election] were to lead to a rupture, which I think is what President Lagarde has in mind as a risk, then that would challenge Europe fundamentally.”

He was particularly critical of the EU’s weakness in the field of defense, despite having a significantly larger combined economy and population than the U.S.

Audio Reveals SecDef Austin Staff Tried to Hide Medical Issue, Asked Ambulance to Turn Off Lights, Sirens.

An audio recording obtained by The Daily Beast suggests that at least one close aid to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin conspired with Austin to hide his condition from the White House and the public at large. In the recording, taken of the January 1 911 call Austin’s aid made on his boss’s behalf, the aid can be heard urging responding authorities to be “subtle” in their response and not to attract attention.

“Can I ask—can the ambulance not show up with lights and sirens? Uhm, we’re trying to remain a little subtle,” the aide said. “Usually when they turn into a residential neighborhood, they’ll turn them off,” a dispatcher assured the aid.

Austin, who was released from the hospital on Monday, has come under fire for hiding his hospitalization following cancer surgery from the proper authorities, including the White House, for days. The Defense Secretary’s behavior has resulted in some, including former President Trump, calling for him to be fired.

Biden Presidential Approval Rating Drops to Near 20-Year Low.

Joe Biden’s presidential approval rating has plummeted to a near 20-year low, according to a new ABC/Ipsos poll.

The Democratic president currently sits at 58 percent disapproval and only 33 percent approval — the worst presidential approval numbers since George W. Bush between 2006 and 2008. The poll also revealed that just 57 percent of voters who lean Democratic would be satisfied with Biden as the Party’s nominee in 2024.

A deeper dive into the poll results sheds some light on why. As the border crisis rages on, only 18 percent of respondents support Biden’s handling of immigration — the lowest number on record since ABC began polling the issue in 2004. Biden is also facing high disapproval numbers due to his mishandling of the economy. Seventy-one percent of those polled said the economy was bad, with nearly half saying they are worse off now economically than when Donald Trump was president. Overall, 56 percent of people disapprove of Biden’s handling of the economy.

President Biden is also hemorrhaging support among younger minority voters. While Biden maintains a 65 percent approval rating among Black people aged 50 and up, he has only a 32 percent approval rating among Black people younger than 50. His approval rating with Black people in general is 21 points below average, and among Hispanic people, it is 15 points below average, according to the poll. Biden has also seen women abandon him. Although he received the vote of 57 percent of women in 2020, he now only has the approval of 31 percent.

Poland’s New, Gay Deputy Justice Minister Announces Laws Banning ‘Hate Speech’ Against Gays and Transgenders.

Poland’s new deputy justice minister, a gay activist, has announced new laws outlawing “hate speech” on the basis of sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, and disability.

Krzysztof Śmiszek says the “hate speech” regulations will be finalized by the end of February. The populist Konfederacja (Confederation) party has expressed grave misgivings about the planned speech restrictions, which were included in the coalition agreement between the three globalist political alliances that have combined to govern Poland.

“In practice, this means nothing more than criminal prosecution for expressing views that are inconsistent with a specific ideology that is close to the new coalition,” warned Konfederacja politician Konrad Berkowicz.

“This is obvious censorship, an obvious attack on freedom of speech and obvious, creeping totalitarianism,” he added.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk is moving swiftly to completely undo the legacy of the previous conservative government, which governed Poland from 2015 to late last year. Not only have illegal aliens formerly turned away at the previous government’s border wall been invited to meet the Speaker, but conservatives working for state media have also been fired en masse, and former government ministers have been jailed and expelled from the legislature.

The process has been lawless, with the new government ignoring the Constitutional Tribunal, Supreme Court judges it disagrees with, and presidential pardons to implement its agenda. Nevertheless, President Joe Biden and his ambassador in Warsaw have signaled their approval of the regime.

Allianz CEO Raises Risk Barometer, Warning Out of Touch Elites Are ‘Number One Risk for Societies’.

Allianz chief executive Oliver Bäte has lifted the insurance giant’s Risk Barometer to a five-year high, warning “the political elite” have lost touch with the working class and risk losing power to populists in the many elections slated for 2024.

“You’ve seen recent elections in the Netherlands, you’ve seen it in France, and societies are polarizing because our leaders are not addressing the needs of the people,” said Bäte, referring to Dutch elections which saw anti-mass migration populist Geert Wilders place first and the increasing unpopularity of France’s globalists president, Emmanuel Macron.

“Italy elected a party with neo-fascist roots, Hungary re-elected Viktor Orbán, and the far-right Sweden Democrats took over 20 percent of the votes in a general election,” the German continued.

“We have an increasing detachment of the political elite from the working class and the people that actually go to work every day, and that, I see as the number one risk for our societies,” he added.

The Allianz boss urged the “elite” to remember that “a lot of people are going to vote” this year, not only in the United States and the United Kingdom but in roughly 40 nations worldwide.

“[W]e need to make sure that they vote for the right things and are not just venting anger,” he warned.

Bloomberg has adopted a similar tone to Bäte in terms of the need to ensure people vote for “the right things”, recently publishing an article suggesting elections represent “a threat to democracy,” because voters may elect Donald Trump and other populists.

Kamala’s Own 2020 Campaign Staff Declare of VP: ‘This Person Should Not be President.’

A former staffer on Kamala Harris’s 2020 campaign has harsh words for the prospect of a Harris presidency: “This person should not be president of the United States,” said the staffer.

The blunt assessment of Harris is reported in the upcoming book The Truce: Progressives, Centrists and the Future of the Democratic Party, by Hunter Walker and Luppe B Luppen.

This isn’t the first time Harris, who has been plagued by accusations of toxic pettiness, ineptness, and dysfunction, has been criticized by former staffers.

“Game of Thrones,” were three words used by another staffer in the VP’s office to describe Kamala Harris’s management style, according to the book which will be published later this month. The book details in part the internal schisms created by Harris’s most loyal adherents and her detractors — including First Lady Jill Biden who reportedly pushed her husband not to select Harris as VP.

Former Harris staffers emphasized her inability to move beyond her personal narrative and discuss policy in concrete detail. Harris’s story of growing up the daughter of Indian and Jamaican immigrants is compelling, though as one staffer put it: “But you’ve got to back that up with: ‘What are you going to do?'”

Her lack of direction and rambling public speeches have made Harris a figure of derision among some Democrats and many Republicans. However, the VP has forged a tenuous political alliance with Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, leading some to believe they’re eyeing a Harris-Buttigieg ticket for 2028.

Whether now in 2024 — should Joe Biden, 81, be forced to bow out due to declining health — or later in 2028, Harris appears determined to make another run for the White House. And despite her being deeply unpopular amongst voters — there may be little the Democrats can do to head off a Harris candidacy.

America’s Globalist Junta Openly Brags How It’ll Stop Trump in 2nd Term.

With Donald Trump regularly beating Joe Biden in national and swing state polls, a “loose-knit network of public interest groups and lawmakers is quietly devising plans” to stop the America First leader from implementing his Agenda 47 policies.

“We’re already starting to put together a team to think through the most damaging types of things that [Trump] might do so that we’re ready to bring lawsuits if we have to,” explained Institution for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection executive director Mary McCord.

Democracy Forward president Skye Perryman said her organization was also “preparing for litigation and preparing to use every tool in the toolbox that our democracy provides to provide the American people an ability to fight back” against a second Trump administration.

“We believe this is an existential moment for American democracy and it’s incumbent on everybody to do their part,” she added – although a reelected Trump would have a democratic mandate, while her organization has none.

Anti-Trump activists and nonprofits are already using lawfare tactics to try and stop Trump from running for the presidency at all, successfully having him removed, at least temporarily, from primary ballots in Colorado and Maine.

The “network” is particularly concerned about Trump using the military to execute his policies, which include immediately securing the border and mass deportations of illegal aliens, by invoking the Insurrection Act.

The leading Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, Rep. Adam Smith, issued a crass warning that Trump is “going to be one creative motherf***er when it comes to trying to figure out how to abuse [power].”

“Whatever your guess is, open up your imagination a little more,” he said.

Biden Regime Signals Its Approval of Poland’s New Globalist Govt Jailing Its Opponents.

Poland’s Minister of Justice, Adam Bodnar, says Joe Biden’s White House “positively assesses” authoritarian measures taken by the country’s new, globalist government to restore what they euphemistically term “the rule of law.”

In the past few weeks, Poland’s new globalist Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, has shut down state television and radio, firing the conservatives appointed to it under the previous government. A judge has deemed this move unlawful, but Tusk is pressing on with the “reforms.”

Tusk has also had the former interior minister, Mariusz Kamiński, and his deputy Maciej Wąsik jailed and expelled from the Sejm – roughly equivalent to the U.S. House of Representatives. They were dragged to prison from the presidential palace, despite having been issued with pardons by President Andrzej Duda. The authoritarian move sparked mass protests in Warsaw this week.

“I am glad that Ambassador Mark Brzezinski positively assesses the ministry’s activities leading to the restoration of the rule of law in Poland,” Bodnar boasted in an official statement, after meeting with U.S. Ambassador Brzezinski.

Brzezinski is the brother of MSNBC morning host Mika Brzezinski and Bush-era appointee Ian Brzezinski. The three are the offspring of Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski.

Tusk’s regime, backed by the EU, is also attempting to disregard all the judicial appointments and reforms of the previous government, ignoring decisions by the Constitutional Tribunal and by Supreme Court judges it dislikes.

The U.S. Embassy has been actively funding globalist-left politics in Poland, providing grants to a nonprofit that brought illegal aliens to meet the Sejm’s new globalist speaker, for example.
