CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten, in a recent segment, expressed astonishment at the surge in President Donald Trump's approval ratings during his second term. "Holy smokes," Enten exclaimed, highlighting that Trump has maintained a positive net approval rating every day since taking office for his second term, a stark contrast to his first term where he achieved this for only 11 days.

Enten noted that Trump's current approval stands at 53%, significantly higher than at any point during his initial presidency. This data, drawn from a CBS News/YouGov poll, shows Trump's net approval rating at plus 21 points, compared to a minus 5 in 2017. 

"Every single day of Trump's second term so far, he has been on the positive side of the ledger, 21 days, all three weeks," Enten said, attributing this shift to a perception among Americans that Trump is fulfilling his campaign promises more effectively this time around. This analysis underscores a notable change in public sentiment towards Trump's leadership in his second tenure.

YOU’RE FIRED! Rogue FEMA agents who sent $59M to NYC for migrant’s luxury hotels get canned!

Four Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) employees are set to be fired Tuesday for sending $59 million to New York City to house and care for illegal migrants, according to the Department of Homeland Security. 

"Four employees are being fired today for circumventing leadership and unilaterally making the egregious payment for hotels for migrants in New York City," DHS officials stated. This payment was made without proper authorization, leading to what some have described as a misuse of funds intended for disaster relief.

The controversy arose after Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency, highlighted the payment on social media, claiming it violated laws and executive orders. He emphasized that the funds should have been used for American disaster relief rather than luxury hotel accommodations. 

The incident has sparked a fury, especially in the context of the migrant crisis in New York City and FEMA’s slow response to the North Carolina Hurricane Victims. The serious repercussions, and the speed they were enforced, for the involved FEMA employees underscore the administration's stance on unauthorized financial decisions.

Elon Musk threatens to cut Elizabeth Warren’s favorite agency, and she is PISSED!

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), an agency established during the Obama administration, is the latest target in President Donald Trump's efforts to reduce the size of the federal government. Russ Vought, the newly appointed director of the Office of Management and Budget and acting director of the CFPB, has directed all 1,700 agency employees to "stand down from performing any work task," according to a report by the New York Post.

The directive comes as part of Trump's broader push to downsize what he views as an overzealous federal bureaucracy. The CFPB, created in 2010 to protect consumers from financial abuse, has been criticized by Republicans for its perceived lack of accountability and aggressive regulatory actions against businesses.

This move parallels recent actions taken against other federal agencies, including USAID, where significant staff reductions were announced. The future of the CFPB under Vought's leadership remains uncertain, with potential implications for consumer protection regulations and the agency's workforce.

The damage of Biden’s DEI mandates EXPOSED in air traffic control numbers!

A critical shortage of 3,800 air traffic controllers has been attributed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hiring practices, according to Michael Pearson, the lead attorney in a class-action lawsuit against the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Pearson argued in an interview with The New York Post that the FAA abruptly introduced "biographical assessments" which led to the removal of over 1,000 qualified candidates from the hiring pool.

"These students were too white and the schools too elite, so in 2013, they were knocked off the preferred hiring list," Pearson claimed, noting that 95% of those assessed failed the new criteria. This shift in hiring standards, he alleges, has left a "gaping hole" in air traffic control staffing.

The FAA has not yet responded to these allegations. However, the claims have sparked a debate on the balance between diversity initiatives and maintaining rigorous professional standards in critical safety roles.

CNN Reporter whines about the "shock to the system" of Trump after the Biden “calm”

CNN chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins expressed her frustration over the fast-paced nature of President Donald Trump's administration, which she says has forced her to work weekends.

Speaking on "Late Night with Seth Meyers," Collins, 32, described the return of Trump to the White House as a "shock to the system." She contrasted the current administration's pace with what she described as the more "comparatively calm" presidency of Joe Biden, suggesting Trump's style has been "mercurial and volatile."

Collins remarked on the constant stream of executive orders from Trump, which she said necessitates round-the-clock coverage. "He likes to sign things on camera," she noted, that keeps newsrooms busy.

The interview highlighted the challenges journalists face under Trump's second term, with Collins humorously noting she now has to skip breakfast due to the hectic schedule this presidency imposes. This sentiment was echoed in social media posts, indicating a broader acknowledgment among journalists of the demanding nature of covering Trump's administration.
