GOP strategist says Republicans in 'deep trouble' as key voting bloc jumps ship

Image
President Donald Trump and Republicans overall are in "deep, deep trouble," according to one moderate conservative strategist, as Latino voters c ontinue to abandon the GOP in "significant" numbers, with two key issues most likely to blame. Mike Madrid is a moderate Republican political strategist, known as one of the co-founders of the anti-Trump political action committee, The Lincoln Project. On Monday, Madrid made an appearance on CNN , where he was pressed about a recent Pew Research survey, which found that 7 in 10 Latinos disapprove of Trump's performance as president in his second term so far. Among those Latinos who voted for Trump in 2024, nearly a third, 3 in 10, said they disapproved. "This is why we're witnessing all of these dramatically wild swings that happened in the 2024 presidential election with Latinos, Hispanics moving historically to the right for Trump, and then moving one year later in equally significant fashion, back awa...

However, in an op-ed published by The Daily Beast, legal ethics and civil procedure expert Ray Brescia suggests despite Monday's win, Trump is "still in deep legal trouble" when it comes to both of his New York cases.

FBI leaders push back against Trump admin's demand to investigate 6 Democrats over video

Image
President Donald Trump's administration is reportedly making moves to initiate a criminal investigation into six Democratic members of Congress, but some in the FBI are refusing to go along with the plan. Bloomberg Law reported Wednesday that the FBI headquarters is demanding a "seditious conspiracy investigation" into the Democratic lawmakers — who are all military and intelligence veterans — after they released a video encouraging rank-and-file service members to remember their duty to disobey illegal orders. While the investigation has not yet been launched, this would mark a significant escalation beyond the voluntary inquiry the FBI launched in the immediate aftermath of the video. Seditious conspiracy was one of the most serious criminal charges levied against January 6 defendants, and leaders of far-right groups The Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys were convicted on that charge before eventually being pardoned by Trump on the first day of his second term.
