Former President Donald Trump is more likely to be seen as a “patriot” but also “weird” in a new Ipsos poll of seven swing states, while Vice President Kamala Harris is more likely to be seen as “moral” and “intelligent.” ipsos.com/en-us/ipsos-2024-u…

Roughly half of Americans (49%) support bank bailouts, according to a new @Reuters / Ipsos poll fielded after the failure of two banks last weekend. That's up 12 percentage points since 2012, driven largely by increased support from Republicans. ipsos.com/en-us/half-america…

A thread about today’s story: I was about to interview a local restaurant owner about the theft of her Santa from outside her business. Then, she stopped me and said, “He’s sitting right up there.” Sure enough, sitting at the counter up front, was the man responsible.

Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will be the first Black woman nominated and confirmed to the Supreme Court. She will be the first former federal public defender on the Court, & the first justice with extensive criminal defense experience since Thurgood Marshall. It's an amazing day.
