If you saw today's headline that Gallup will stop measuring presidential approval, they did the same thing in 2018. They do it whenever Trump is president.

They must have gotten a new poll that has the President so underwater that it looks anomalously bad and they are preemptively embracing utter cowardice rather than risk ire. (They'll re-embrace polling if a Democrat ever returns to the White House to get dunked on.) thehill.com/homenews/med...

We are facing a humanitarian crisis here. Each passing day we learn of new neighbors who haven’t left their homes and have fallen through the cracks. Lots of people aren’t connected to mutual aid networks. Just terrible suffering caused by the federal government.

My Norwegian-American sports-fan wife assures me that the girlfriend's statement “It was touching to see that Sivert was included in the victory" should be read as, "I see my good-for-nothing ex is being a narcissist again while the rest of the team mourns the recent death of their teammate."

For the first time, crickets from Donald Trump.

After losing in court multiple times to Illinois and other states, the National Guard was finally quietly pulled out of our streets.

The pressure is working, and we’ve got to keep at it.
National Guard troops were quietly withdrawn from some U.S. cities
The deployments encountered repeated legal setbacks that stymied President Donald Trump’s show of force in Los Angeles, Chicago and Portland, Oregon.

Seems the Pentagon is testing anti-drone high-energy lasers near Fort Bliss in El Paso, and didn't feel this was dangerous enough to close airspace over.

The FAA administrator disagreed.

Last week, these lasers successfully protected the American people from a sinister children's party balloon.
Airspace closure followed spat over drone-related tests and party balloon shoot-down, sources say
Pentagon officials had undertaken planning to use military technology near Fort Bliss, in El Paso, to practice downing drones.

NEW: Arkansas bars public officials who've been appointed by the governor to seek a full term for their position.

The 2 justices appointed by Governor Sanders are using a way around that — they're just running for each other's seats.

I wrote on Arkansas' supreme court races coming up in March:
Conservatives Play Musical Chairs to “Cement” Majority on Arkansas High Court - Bolts
How seat-switching, plus a new state law, is helping gubernatorial appointees reap the benefits of incumbency before they’ve earned it from voters.

The most important thing to understand about the debt:

Yes, spending is rising – due to demographics & health care cost growth

But taxes used to be on pace to match that rising spending

Then we cut taxes and now it isn't

Spending is rising slower than expected, so tax cuts bear 100% of the blame

The S&P 500 has increased by 14.5% in the past year. It's measured in US dollars. The dollar has decreased against the Euro by 13.1% in the past year. That's a mere 1.2% of real growth against global value. (1.145/1.1131)

Inflation, meantime, remains sticky at 2.7%. (You can do the math from here.)

If there was ever going to be any proof that WikiLeaks is essentially dead, it's the Epstein files. Integrating this sort of data and making it searchable is right up the organization's old alley.

The good news is that @ddosecrets.org and @dropsitenews.com joined forces with Jmail to do just that.
