While President Biden's daily "Job Approval" rating is down to just 38%, voter's "Economic Confidence" in Rasmussen's latest poll is down nearly 2% from December's already low numbers.

As Consumer Prices increased by the the largest annual rate since June 1982, experts now say they fear a wage-price spiral could raise costs even more in the future – heaping further pressure on President Joe Biden and Congressional Democrats to address what has become the biggest threat to the U.S. economy in decades. Home Food Prices have risen 6.5% over the last 12 months.

And believe it or not, it gets worse from there.

People are dying, and President Biden not only has no plan to stop it, he doesn’t even seem to care. Two Hispanic Texas women – a 59 year old mother and her 21 year old daughter who were sitting in their car at a Stop Sign last Saturday morning, going about their daily lives – were killed at 11:30am by an Illegal Immigrant Smuggler, T-Boned while Joe Biden’s Immigration & Border Policies are failing.

Biden's decline has occurred mainly in the states he won in 2020. A 60% majority of Americans say they feel “worn out” by how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted their daily lives, and 45% feel “angry” about it. And perhaps most important politically, support for Face Mask & Workplace Vaccine Mandates has declined since the fall when the Delta Variant started to dominate.

Heading into the 2022 Mid-Term Election Year, voters are lacking confidence in President Biden's leadership abilities, are concerned about Inflation, the economy and the Democrat Party's "agenda," and are pessimistically running short of patience on all of the above according to new Wall Street Journal Poll.

"We are going to continue fighting for them, because at the end of the day, they're the ones doing the tough work in our stores," said Gump.

In the spirit of the holidays, I wanted to bring attention to certain efforts in Texas and the Coastal Bend that benefit many families during the holiday season.

As 52% of Registered Voters say they “Strongly Disapprove” of Mr. Biden’s performance in office, just 18.2% “approve.” And if that isn't enough to worry Democrats, those identifying as "Independents" – who often provide the winning margin in elections – say they'd support a GOP candidate over a Democrat 50%-to-32% in the Generic Congressional Ballot question, their largest lead since 1981.

​​​​​​​"Samsung's new semiconductor manufacturing facility in Taylor will bring countless opportunities for hardworking Texans and their families, and will play a major role in our state's continued exceptionalism in the industry.

Every time there are bad new numbers on inflation, remember back to President Biden’s angry, defensive assertion on July 19th: “There’s nobody suggesting there’s unchecked inflation on the way.” Well, the Labor Dept. announced this morning that inflation is up 6.2% compared to a year ago, confirming why polls show the vast majority of Americans are concerned it. Inflation is a tax that affects everyone.

After spending the first 24 hours after the Nov. 2nd Election pretending that Virginia Republicans didn’t elect a black woman as Lt. Governor – the second-highest office in Virginia – mainstream media hacks went full-metal stupid trying to diminish the significance of it. ​​​​​​​Since they can’t even handle winning the presidency gracefully, it was obvious things would get rough and ugly when they lost again.
