DESCRIPTION
Iran is declaring victory. President Trump is calling the Strait of Hormuz “American territory.” China publicly rejects Washington’s economic pressure while Chinese shipping interests push deeper into an Arctic route designed to bypass vulnerable global chokepoints.
Back home, Anthony Fauci’s attorneys have established a legal defense fund, Trump’s White House ballroom won a temporary Supreme Court reprieve, the president is threatening a $5 billion lawsuit against a progressive think tank, Democrats are preparing a new wave of investigations, and Bernie Sanders is campaigning alongside the Democratic Party’s expanding progressive wing.
But buried underneath all of it is one number that could matter far more heading toward November: 72%.
Today we follow the headlines until they converge on the issue Republicans and Democrats may both have reason to fear — the extraordinary amount of money flowing through American politics.
