Trump’s Approval Hits New High – Democrat’s Approval Dips to New Low


Posted originally on Mar 18, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Trump Can you Hear Me Now

Americans believe their country is on the right track, according to a recent NBC poll. President Donald Trump received a higher favorability rating than any other time during his two terms at 47%. Americans have not had this much confidence in the direction of their nation since 2004. The media claims the people hate the current administration and disagree with their efforts to undo the past four years of politics. Yet, it is extremely rare to see any president receive over 50% support.

Securing the border seems to be the most popular policy, receiving a 56% approval rating, followed by government cuts that 47% of Americans agreed are necessary. DOGE received 46% favorability, and even Elon Musk saw a 39% approval rating. Around 41% of Americans agree with Trump’s handling of the Ukraine war and NATO, while 40% do not. Overall, 40% of respondents believe the Trump Administration is having a positive impact on the economy compared to the 30% who disagree.

Democrat v Republican

Obviously, this is widely skewed as 90% of Democrats support Donald Trump compared to a mere 4% of people still backing the Democratic Party. NBC noted that this is the largest gap in approval in the past 80 years. We are living in highly divided times.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party’s favorability hit a record low at 29%. Elon Musk has a higher approval rating than the entire Democratic Party. Even Democrats can no longer support their own party. Only 63% of Democrats and left-leaning independents back their own party. No one seems to know what the Democratic Party stands for, as it is now split between the far-left progressive extremists who openly want a socialistic society and the power-hungry neocons who are desperate to virtue signal any cause that would lead the US into a conflict.

Everything comes down to the economy. If the cost of living continues to rise, the people will blame those in charge. The Republicans are united as a party on every issue besides the Ukraine war. The Democratic Party has completely fragmented and cannot last. The growing divide between establishment and neocon Democrats (corporate-backed politicians) and the progressive left (socialist policies, climate agenda, and social justice movements) has led to internal conflict that will eventually lead to the death of the Democratic Party.

CNN’s Katie Hunt Attempts to Debate Constitutional Law with Stephen Miller, Over Criminal Alien Deportation


Posted originally on CTH on March 18, 2025 | Sundance

CNN’s Katie Hunt cannot fathom the plenary power provided by the U.S. constitution that separates the power of the executive branch from judicial review on all determinations of ‘national security’.  Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller attempts to educate the leftist media who stand jaw agape at the power contained within a nationally elected President Trump.

What follows in the debate is typical of what you would hear from a college student who recently exits the indoctrination program of a leftist university.  Hunt tries to argue ‘separation of power’ which is exactly the point Miller is making.  Judge James Boasberg is overstepping his authority within the judicial branch by attempting to instruct the executive branch about ‘national security’ determinations.

The producers are trying to send Hunt instructions electronically, and while Hunt is checking her devices for instructions, she struggles to hear the arguments presented by Miller and organize counterpoints. CNN looks silly.  WATCH:

Stephen Miller Rejects DC Judge Boasberg Legal Authority Over “National Security” Matters


Posted originally on CTH on March 17, 2025 | Sundance 

Deputy Chief of Staff and Senior Advisor to President Trump, Stephen Miller, holds a press gaggle outside the White House.

During the Q&A session, Mr Miller discussed the administration’s position against the extrajudicial ruling of DC Judge James Boasberg, who attempts to inject himself into the ‘national security’ authorities of President Trump and direct both national security and foreign policy as it relates to criminal illegal aliens.

Simultaneous to this presser, Judge Boasberg – who previously celebrated President Trump being dragged into court – was questioning DOJ lawyers about the criminal alien deportation process.  President Trump’s lawyers are correctly using the ‘national security’ argument that removes Judge Boasberg’s ability to inject himself into the issue.  Boasberg is furious.

As noted by Margot Cleveland:

Judge Boasberg: So, you’re saying we were outside of airspace so no jurisdiction?

DOJ: No, “removal” happens when they left US, so that means they were already removed, which is what the Court order pertains to.

Judge Boasberg: Equitable power has extraterritorial reach; you can’t violate it.

As noted by Politico:

[…] Deputy Associate Attorney General Abhishek Kambli said the foreign policy concerns related to the operation were paramount.

“These arrangements were the result of intensive and delicate negotiations between the United States and El Salvador,” he said.

DOJ further frustrated Boasberg by refusing to provide almost any details about the deportation operation, repeatedly invoking national security to defend the secrecy.

“Why are you showing up today and not having answers to why you can’t even disclose it to me?” the judge asked.

As the hearing neared its conclusion, Boasberg demanded that the government answer — by noon tomorrow — a series of questions about the flights and their passengers, as well as exactly when Trump signed the proclamation calling for the alleged gang members to be expelled from the country. He also ordered the filing of more briefs on the legal arguments in the case.

Judge James Boasberg sits at the center of judicial activism within Washington, DC

During a review of the Kennedy Center in Washington DC, President Trump held a press gaggle to take questions from the traveling press pool.  President Trump began his remarks by announcing the JFK files will be released tomorrow, Tuesday March 18th, after being assembled for public release by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

President Trump notes he has not personally seen all of the documents related to the Kennedy assassination; however, there is “a lot of paper” to review by the media.  President Trump also notes he anticipated all of the documents to be released “without redactions.”

The release of the JFK files was a promise made during his 2024 campaign. The president remarked, “I am a man of my word.”  WATCH:

President Trump will Speak with Russian President Putin on Tuesday


President Trump will Speak with Russian President Putin on Tuesday

Posted originally on CTH on March 17, 2025 | Sundance

Some interesting developments in the aftermath of special envoy Steve Witkoff spending four hours in discussions with President Vladimir Putin.

After Witkoff relayed the substance of the lengthy Putin meeting, the White House and President Trump announced a phone call between Trump and Putin is scheduled for Tuesday.  The Kremlin have confirmed the call schedule.

It is important to stay focused on the factual aspects to these ongoing negotiations.  President Putin’s public statements after the Witkoff meeting essentially said Russia agrees in principle with the need for a ceasefire, and the details of coordinating a 2,000km long point of conflict need to be worked out.

Meanwhile, in somewhat of a surprise statement, Vladyslav Vlasiuk, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s commissioner for sanctions policy, said they are open to the removal of economic sanctions against Russia as part of a negotiated peace deal.

(Via Politico) – Western sanctions on Russia could ultimately be dropped if it helps deliver security and justice for Ukraine, Kyiv’s top sanctions official told POLITICO, as United States President Donald Trump steps up bilateral negotiations with Moscow in a bid to end the war.

Vladyslav Vlasiuk, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s commissioner for sanctions policy, said in an interview that a return to countries doing business with Russia in one way or another is simply “a matter of time,” but had to take place under the right conditions.

Economic restrictions, embargoes and bans on importing Russian energy, he said, “have their own objectives, which might be pushing Russia to stop its aggression and to make them make a deal on lasting peace,” rather than simply being a “punishment of any kind.” (read more)

Former UFC Champion Conor McGregor Visits White House to Give Voice to the Irish People Being Ignored by Irish Government


Posted originally on CTH on March 17, 2025 | Sundance

Conor McGregor, former UFC two-weight world champion and Irish businessman, is at the White House on Saint Patrick’s Day to meet with President Donald Trump for what McGregor called the “most important meeting” for Ireland’s future.

“I’m here to raise the issues the people of Ireland face,” McGregor said while addressing reporters with White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. “It’ll be music to the people of Ireland’s ears because never on the main stage [have] the issues the people of Ireland face been spoke.”

“There are rural towns in Ireland that have been overrun in one swoop,” he said. “That have become a minority in one swoop. So, issues need to be addressed, and the 40 million Irish-Americans, as I said, need to hear this because, if not, there will be no place to come home and visit.” WATCH:

President Trump Calls Biden J6 Pardons Null and Void Following Revelations of Auto Pen Use


Posted originally on CTH onMarch 17, 2025 | Sundance

President Trump sends a shot across the bow to those who received a preemptive pardon from the administration of Joe Biden, noting the use of an autopen could nullify the issuance.

Via Truth Social – “The “Pardons” that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen. In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them! The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden. He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime.

Therefore, those on the Unselect Committee, who destroyed and deleted ALL evidence obtained during their two year Witch Hunt of me, and many other innocent people, should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level. The fact is, they were probably responsible for the Documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the Worst President in the History of our Country, Crooked Joe Biden!” (Source)
