Dems Have 11-Point Lead on Generic Ballot
11
A new Emerson College survey of likely 2026 voters finds the Democrats with an 11-point advantage over the Republicans on the generic congressional ballot, leading 53% to 42%. President Trump holds a 39% job approval rating, consistent with the past two months, whereas his disapproval increased another point, to 57%.
Is This Election Rigging?

A new round of Trumpian tariffs are making the news,
And Republicans are singing those “lost Midterm Blues.”
Gas prices are high and affordability’s low,
And there’s something both parties want to know:
Is Trump deliberately trying to make the GOP lose?
A Fair Trade

With Burmese pythons the Florida Everglades are overrun,
We’re killing some, but what do you do with a dead one?
Well, a guy in Fort Myers takes the dead snakes
And using every part of them, products he makes,
So he’ll trade you a free “specialty” pizza for a dead python.
Only 30% Approve of Trump’s Handling of Presidency
30%
A new American Research Group poll finds just 30% of Americans say they approve of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president and 67% say they disapprove.
Hot Gas — Cheap!

The Freedom Gas Network mystery has been solved,
Almost overnight in PA and NJ the stations evolved.
So, we wonder, how do they keep
Gas prices so relatively cheap?
Some think that 200,000 gallons of stolen fuel is involved.
Dishonest to a Fault

From Trump’s “stolen election” lies, we can’t get no relief,
He carps on about stolen votes, but he never names the thief.
Somebody needs to tell this guy
Americans aren’t buying his lies,
And that he’s turned us into the United States of Disbelief.
Hegseth’s War on Hypogonadism

Though Pete Hegseth seems overly focused on makeup and hair,
He also wants his troops to be battle-ready and fully prepared.
To be at their “absolute best,”
They’ll take a testosterone test,
And if found deficient, will receive gender-affirming health care.
Iconic and Ironic

Donald Trump has done a heckuva job leading our grateful nation.
For his many projects and interior designs, he deserves an ovation.
So what to give a guy who has everything —
Another plaque, or a medal or a signet ring?
How about a 10-foot-tall gold trophy for “Iran War Participation.”
