Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : Judges have temporarily blocked executive orders to end birthright citizenship, fire en masse probationary civil servants, kill government diversity programs, stop federal support for gender-affirming care, move transgender prisoners, and suspend asylum and refugee resettlement.
39% : And House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, according to Axios, urged his colleagues to remain calm on the floor during the speech, avoiding disruptions and props. Many backbenchers, dismissive of the idea that resistance to Trump should be calibrated, ignored the counsel and held protest signs.
39% : (As I wrote last month, a reasonable and defensible demand from Democrats is to insist any bill to keep the government open requires Trump to spend what's in the bill.
35% : Trump -- who won the Tar Heel state by 3 points -- has a disapproval rating 1 point higher than his approval rating.
29% : With its expansive view of unitary executive power, this conservative Supreme Court may still give Trump more wins than losses.
27% : Congressional Democrats have hammered Trump for failing to lower the price of eggs and siding with Russian President Vladimir Putin over Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
23% : They have blistered the House Republican budget resolution as devastating to Medicaid and savaged Elon Musk as an unelected billionaire gutting the federal government and threatening Social Security.
23% : This suggests that Trump is getting scuffed up in the swing states, not just Blue America.
19% : Representative Al Green heckled Trump early and was removed from the chamber.
