#midtermelections #republicans #democrats - Trump's Low Approval Rating Pressures GOP Ahead of 2026 Midterms: Bloomberg Television

18 September 2026

With the US midterm election about six weeks away, President Donald Trump's approval rating is near record lows. Voters now trust Democrats more than Republicans on a laundry list of issues: to handle the economy, health care, immigration, the deficit, cost of living and foreign wars, according to a fresh New York Times/Siena poll. "Inflation is still high, consumers are feeling it" and come polling day, voters will be thinking about "affordability, affordability, affordability", says Timothy O'Brien, Senior Executive Editor for Bloomberg Opinion. O'Brien joins "The Pulse with Francine Lacqua" to discuss what's at stake for the Trump administration, and what voters are most concerned about heading into the election.

Trump wrote the playbook for how to make billions while assuming power. But with his popularity declining and the midterms approaching, he now faces a more daunting challenge: figuring out how to hang onto all the money the presidency has provided.

Goldbug: #meta #socialmedia #trial - The Meta Trial That Co...: 22 August 2026 Meta is facing what could be its most consequential trial yet, as 29 state attorneys general accuse the tech giant of knowing...

18 August 2026

Meta - the operator of social media platforms including Facebook and Instagram - and its boss Mark Zuckerberg are facing their biggest trial yet, with the tech giant being sued for the value of the company: $1.4 trillion. The trial, in Oakland, California, stems from a lawsuit filed in 2023 by 29 American states accusing Meta of being responsible for alleged social media harms to young people. As the lawyers for California told the jury: Meta's entire business model was to hook the users, hold them as long as they can, harvest their data and then hide the truth from the public. If found guilty the company will not just face a potentially crippling fine it may also be required to change the way it uses social media. It has been described as big social media's big tobacco moment. The reckoning in the courts comes at a time when the backlash against AI is also gathering steam. Meta is accused of designing psychologically manipulative features, designed to lure young people in and then maximise their time on the apps. Zuckerberg's company is ultimately accused of contributing to the US mental health crisis. Meta denies all allegations. ------- 0:00 - Meta stands trial over claims Instagram and Facebook are addictive 3:20 - Social media addiction trial has same ‘resonance’ as Civil Rights movement

Meta Platforms (META) "is turning into one of our favorite names," says CFRA's Angelo Zino, who says the core business and growth prospects both appear healthy.

The cheapest valuation among the Mag 7 and new products are other key factors he sees buoying the social media giant. Austin Lyons says Meta can use its own AI models to improve ad efficiency while keeping costs contained.

20 August 2026

The US gross national debt has surged past $40 trillion for the first time, government data showed Wednesday, outstripping earlier forecasts at a pace fuelled in part by President Donald Trump's invalidated tariffs.

The uptick in borrowing is a blow to Trump, who promised to cut public spending during his 2024 presidential campaign, and sparked a backlash from US representatives across the political field.
