                            July 12, 2024Our Monarchical Presidency By Michael Barone
   Fourteen days after his disastrous debate, President Joe Biden is still in the race for reelection. Multiple elected Democrats, New York Times editorial writers and columnists, and Democratic Party megadonors -- "elites," sneers the perceptive David Dayen -- have called on him to step aside. A secret ballot of congressional Democrats, the procedure under which they choose their own party leaders, would surely go against Biden, probably by a wide margin.

Most voters don’t think Joe Biden is actually doing the job of president, and few are very confident that he is capable of doing the job.
July 11, 2024How Current Presidential Polling May Impact House Races By J. Miles Coleman
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE— On Monday, Rep. Angie Craig (D, MN-2) became the first House Democrat from a marginal district to call for President Joe Biden to drop his reelection effort.
— With Biden intent on continuing his campaign, we thought it would be worth examining how his current polling could impact the House playing field.
— If the national popular vote were tied, we would expect Donald Trump to carry 10 additional House seats, compared to his 2020 result.
— If Trump won the popular vote by closer to three points, about where national polling suggests he is now, he could be positioned to flip about two-dozen previously Biden-won districts.
— It is possible that, even though the practice has been on the decline for some time, ticket-splitting may make something of a comeback in 2024.

   The latest official employment report finds once again that the federal government and state-local hiring spree is still in full gear. Over the past year, health care and government hiring has outpaced every private sector industry. It isn't just the IRS bringing on thousands of new workers. The bloat is everywhere.

   Last week, presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. asked me to moderate what he called "The Real Debate."
   Kennedy was angry with CNN because it wouldn't let him join its Trump-Biden debate.
   His people persuaded Elon Musk to carry his Real Debate on Twitter. They asked me to give RFK Jr. the same questions, with the same time limits.
