    True, but even with this court, I can't see them granting certiorari over one random asshole defying a subpoena.

    Whole bunch of Fox News polls out today. Bottom line, Trump leads everywhere, and is on track to a 400 electoral vote total (including Virginia!). Same polls show abortion rights amendments passing by landslides in Arizona and Florida. Fox has always had reputable polls, no more inaccurate than anyone else's. These seem to indicate voters are absolutely determined to get rid of Biden no matter what they think about anything else. Also, won't they be surprised when the national abortion ban is signed into law in 2025.
    Note: My personal opinion is that polling is now a practical impossibility, but the Fox scenario is as likely as any of the others.

    I don't either, but they've done quite a few things I didn't expect so ... I dunno.

    And probably not a drop of Trump Water to be found at the site.

    Polls are polls and there's at least a 5% abortion tax, probably more, that isn't being factored in yet. There might also be a 3-5% criminal conviction tax which is probably not even in the new polls.

    Wouldn'tn put it it past the Big Bad Wolf to start wishcasting.

    The old Sandy Hook school was torn down and is now a memorial. Probably due to the crisis actors or something. /s

    Whenever I come across a poll that I find interesting - I'll always check into the cross tabs. Find out who they talked to. There is a "secret sauce" to poll where you talk to X number of people then project it out to what you think the voting electorate will be on election day. Those who ultimately swing elections are those voters that pollsters don't think will vote - if they are right, the poll is right, if they are wrong - they are way off.

    Fox News’ polls have always been decent from what I understand, but after 2020 they gutted the entire polling department so they wouldn’t embarrass a Republican again. So maybe they’re Rasmussen-level polls anymore?

    Hate to say it, but pretty soon Phoenix summers will consist of heat dome season, then monsoon season. Both brutal.

    And the monsoon has been dwindling down to nothing the last few years.
