Most accurate pollster gives Trump latest approval rating: Live updates

White House Press Secretary Karoline spoke to reporters about ’two horrific cases of antisemitic violence in our country these last two weeks,’ calling it ‘unacceptable to this president and this White House.’

She said Trump ‘is not going to allow anyone to take part in violent terrorism, acts of terrorism in our country, and that’s what this case in Boulder, Colorado was investigated as,’ she said.

She also blamed the Biden administration for granting a tourist visa to the suspect.

‘We know that this individual, this terrorist, was allowed into this country by this previous administration foolishly given a tourism visa and then was illegally allowed to stay.

A DHS spokeswoman has said the suspect entered the country from Egypt in 2022 on a tourist visa and overstayed following its expiration, and an ICE official said the suspect had an expired work permit.

Top pollster Nate Silver revealed that President Donald Trump has a positive rating on just one key issue, according to his latest analysis.

Silver, who pens the Silver Bulletin polling blog, shared in his most recent entry that the Republican president is receiving negative marks on trade, the economy and inflation.

The only area where Trump is polling above 50 percent is on immigration, the polling guru wrote.

Averaging out the results from many recent surveys, Silver has data pointing to Trump garnering a +2.5 percent approval rating on immigration amid the president’s crackdown on immigrants in the country illegally.

Since the beginning of the Trump administration, ICE has arrested over 80,000 illegal immigrants and counting.

White House officials have said they want to increase the pace, too, eventually getting to 3,000 arrests per day, up from the current average around 650.

Free market grassroots advocacy group Americans for Prosperity is putting money as well as their political muscle behind efforts to pass President Donald Trump’s budget bill in the Senate.

One of the ads features Melody, a small business owner who runs Oak City Cabinets in Raleigh, North Carolina. In the ad, she notes,

‘President Trump’s tax cuts have put thousands of dollars back into my family’s pocket and helped me grow my business and invest in my employees.

. . Main Street businesses and working families need permanent tax cuts—not uncertainty. The clock is ticking, Congress can’t get distracted. They need to save our tax cuts now.’

The ads will air on both cable tv and digital platforms.

Donald Trump condemned the horrendous terrorist attack in Colorado where at least six pro-Israel demonstrators were set on fire by an undocumented alien.

The president broke his silence Monday afternoon in a post to Truth Social where he placed the blame on his predecessor.

‘Yesterday’s horrific attack in Boulder, Colorado, WILL NOT BE TOLERATED in the United States of America,’ Trump wrote.

His comments came nearly a full day after the firebombing took place on Sunday afternoon at the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a speech at the California Democratic state convention, but political observers are not sure she’s interested in running for governor.

Stephen Miller launched another intriguing tweet correcting Elon Musk, his wife’s employer, shortly after touting his happy family life.

‘The Big Beautiful Bill decreases total spending over the budget window by nearly $2 trillion,’ the top adviser to President Donald Trump wrote on X Sunday.

The tweet comes after an interview aired with Musk on CBS This Morning in which the Tesla founder admitted to differences with the administration.

Senator Lindsey Graham sent social media users fuming after he slammed green energy activist Greta Thunberg for trying to enter Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war.

The Swedish woman who grew to fame for her climate activism is inserting herself in the years-long conflict to try and break the Israeli naval blockade on the Gaza Strip.

She and her crew debarked from Sicily on Sunday aboard a sailboat named the Maldeen on the journey that could take several days.

She burst into tears while addressing reporters over the weekend, sharing: ‘We are doing this because, no matter what odds we are against, we have to keep trying.’

Taking a swipe at the potentially dangerous escapade, Trump ally Senator Graham shared a tongue-in-cheek message for the voyagers.

‘Hope Greta and her friends can swim!’ Graham posted on X alongside a report about the 22-year-old activist’s latest stunt.

President Donald Trump’s administration rounded up nearly 1,500 migrants in Massachusetts alone – the the biggest ICE sweep yet, officials said Monday.

A total of 1,461 have been arrested in the state and 277 of them have been deported. 790 of them are criminals.

President Trump is expected to speak to Chinese President Xi Jinping ‘very soon’ amid rising trade tensions.

Trump on Friday accused China of ‘violating’ a trade agreement amid a 90-day pause in his tariffs.

‘I am confident that when President Trump and Party Chairman Xi have a call, that this will be ironed out,’ Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CBS ‘Face the Nation’ Sunday.

CNBC quoted a White House official saying the call would take place ‘very soon’ but probably not today, while also reporting the conversation was expected this week.

A group of pro-Gaza protesters stormed the stage during a national security forum in Washington, D.C., as Secretary of the Navy John Phelan was speaking.

Protesters left on stage waving a Palestinian flag and signs protesting tech group Palantir as security officials struggled vainly to remove them from the stage.

President Trump faces his latest ‘TACO’ test as markets open for the first time since he announced a new 50 percent tariff on imported steel.

U.S. steel and aluminum prices rose Monday following the president’s threat during a speech in Pittsburgh to double his existing tariff. Shares in U.S. steel companies were rising in pre-market trades, while shares in top Korean exporters dropped.

Trump erupted last week when a reporter asked him about the term ‘taco trade,’ which stands for Trump Always Chickens Out, and describes a theory of investing on the assumption that the president will ultimately back off on his trade pronouncements. Trump called it a ‘nasty’ question and said it was a negotiating tactic.

China hit back over the weekend after Trump accused it of ‘violating’ a trade agreement and vowed not to be ‘Mr. nice guy.’

China said the U.S. had imposed ‘discriminatory restrictive measures.’ Trump and his administration have said he may speak to Chinese President Xi Jinping on trade this week amid the tensions.

Florida Republican Rep. Randy Fine is calling for Trump to label additional groups as terrorist organizations.

The freshman Republican has posted on X aggressively his distaste for Gaza and how he wants to nuke the relatively small area.

Over the weekend, Fine called for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) to be designated a terror group in addition to ‘Students for Justice in Palestine,’ a leading pro-Gaza activism group on scores of college campuses nationwide.

President Donald Trump has not yet publicly spoken out against the Boulder, Colorado terrorist attack.

It’s been 18 hours since a man threw Molotov cocktails at civilians at a pro-Israel event honoring hostages still being held in Gaza.

Trump’s Justice Department and FBI called the horrific incident a ‘targeted act of terror.’

But the president has not posted to social media or released any public statements condemning the deadly attack that left eight people injured, including one still in critical condition.

There are no events on Trump’s schedule today besides having a private lunch with Vice President J.D. Vance.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared to dismantle a seasoned CBS anchor’s prior warnings about inflation during a national TV interview on Sunday, brushing aside months of skepticism on Trump’s economic policies.

Appearing on Face the Nation, Bessent faced questions from anchor Margaret Brennan about the Trump tariffs and their threat to Americans’ wallets.

Brennan had posed similar questions months earlier as she told how economists were forecasting prices to skyrocket and inflation to surge.

Elon Musk has officially stepped down from his role in Donald Trump’s administration bringing an end to one of politics’ most unconventional partnerships.

Musk, 53, joined the Trump administration four months ago to lead the newly created DOGE aimed at increasing governmental efficiency and productivity.

Backed by nearly $300 million in political spending to help re-elect Trump, Musk was granted sweeping authority to slash federal bureaucracy and reshape government operations.

However, behind the scenes, their relationship was riddled with mistrust and miscommunication.

‘Was it all bull****?’ Trump reportedly asked, expressing doubt over Musk’s pledge to slash $1 trillion in government spending.

Ashley Biden slammed critics of her father Joe saying ‘I am so grateful. Too grateful to be angry about all the bull****’

‘Hit the jackpot with these two,’ she added.

Last week, Trump amplified circulating conspiracy theories online suggesting that Joe Biden was a clone.

Almost immediately, social media erupted, with supporters and critics alike grappling with the surreal suggestion.

‘We all knew something was completely off,’ one commenter wrote. ‘Although Trump has said repeatedly that Joe Biden was shot.’

Others reveled in the uncanny nature of the moment: ‘Wow! President Trump just re-truthed this post,’ exclaimed one astonished user.

Another chimed in: ‘I cannot believe President Trump just reTRUTHED this.’

The president’s replies section rapidly devolved into a torrent of wild speculation about what surprises may be ahead.

‘Well you just went there! Go you! The truth is coming! Buckle up!’ one supporter cheered.
