If This Is Communism, Then Teddy Roosevelt Was a Communist
The policies under attack today once defined mainstream American leadership from Teddy Roosevelt to FDR and LBJ.

Trump's most recent desperate attempt to change the subject from his involvement with Epstein, Iran, Netanyahu, and the billions he and his grifter sons are making with their sleazy schemes is to call progressive Democrats "communists."
He's even gone so far as to suggest that some should be stripped of their citizenship and deported or thrown into one of his ICE concentration camps.
With Major Pollster
President Donald Trump's approval rating has fallen to the lowest point of either of his terms in office, according to a new Economist/YouGov poll.
The survey, conducted July 25-27 among 1,559 U.S. adult citizens, found 34 percent approve of the job Trump is doing as president, down 2 points from the previous week, while 62 percent disapprove, up 2 points.
It is the lowest approval rating Trump has recorded with the pollster since returning to office, surpassing previous lows notched earlier this year.
Under a new rule proposed by the Trump administration, American scientists might be forced to watch similar discoveries from the sidelines.
The proposal would restrict international collaboration and give political appointees the ability to decide the most important research to fund, and the power to pull the plug at any time, for any reason.
Analyst Nate Silver said Sunday that Americans may be "moving on" from President Trump amid rocky political territory for the president and his party.
"It's kind of striking how, apart from Iran, most of the Trump-related stories this summer have been boring and dumb (reflection pool, White House Correspondents' Dinner) or kind of funny (FIFA), maybe we're moving on from him being the central figure in American politics," Silver said in a post Sunday morning on the social platform X.
With less than 100 days before the midterm elections, Republican pollsters are sounding alarm bells amid a frightening lack of enthusiasm from their base of voters. read more
