Biden Sinks Lower but Gas Still Soars

From the Wombat's In The Mailbox: 05.20.22 (Morning Edition), Don Surber sees GOP Primary Vote Up 30%, Democrat Down 6%. Even across da pond at Da Mail they notice Biden's approval drops to lowest of his presidency at 39% and just TWO in 10 adults think US is heading in the right direction: 100 days after president's last press interview, teacher asks if it can get 'any worse' in latest dire poll with inflation and baby formula crisis. AP, Biden's approval dips to lowest of presidency: AP-NORC poll. NewsMax, AP Poll: Biden Approval Drops to Lowest of Presidency. Sundance at CTH prefers the Quinnipiac Poll, 60 Percent of Hispanics Disapprove of Joe Biden, 61 Percent of Young Voters Feel Same, Overall Approval Drops to 35 Percent. VodkaPundit at PJ Media, Even Democrats Are Getting Sick of Presidentish Joe Biden. A word of caution, just remember that about a quarter of those who disapprove don't think he's fucking things up fast enough. A thought piece from Joh White on Da Hill, Democrats think in the moment. Republicans think in decades; instant gratification is for children.

As a Florida Appeals Court reinstates congressional map approved by Gov. DeSantis the fretting over the Democrat loss of the New York Gerrymander continues, Thunderdome: New York's new congressional maps are creating 'chaos' for Democrats, (John Sexton at Haut Hair). Ace, Disaster for Democrats As Judge Strikes Down Their Highly Gerrymandered New York District Map

Democrats spent 2021 doing two things: 1, complaining piously about Republican congressional gerrymanders (a "gerrymander" being the redrawing of congressional district boundaries in a census year to favor one party or the other), and 2, drawing the most grotesquely partisan and bizarre gerrymander borders imaginable in the states they controlled, especially in New York State.

Maryland is a pretty close second, but we don't have a law that guarantees non-partisan districting. Politico whines about The primary battles of Dems’ uncivil war


Atop Da Hill Keith Naughton opines Ron DeSantis and Tim Scott are the ticket to beat Trump and Michael Barone at Town Hall notes It's Not Exactly Trump's Republican Party. Not it's not, but we loaned it to him, and it came back in better condition than when he took it.

Kevin Downey at PJ Media, Creep-fest: 135—Oops, 137—Teachers Arrested for Sex Crimes So Far This Year. To be fair there are an awful lot of teachers, and an awful lot of students, so bad things are bound to happen. I'll be only one in ten makes the news.

At Da Wire, Nationwide Gas Prices Could Hit Staggering New High By August, Top U.S. Bank Analyst Says. Da Caller reports Biden Admin Quietly Admits Math Error Is Causing Massive Oil, Gas Permitting Delays
Richard Spinrad, the head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), said a subagency “discovered a miscalculation” that has caused a massive backlog in permitting, in the April 29 letter obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation. Spinrad acknowledged the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) — the subagency tasked with analyzing the impact of offshore drilling projects on wildlife — has used faulty modeling on such impacts and, as a result, overestimated wildlife effects, delaying permitting on existing leases.
