Staff Reports
Joe Biden appears to be sharpening his knives for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Recent reports indicate that the president has taken issue with Netanyahu’s approach to the hostage situation in Gaza, claiming he is not doing enough while remaining silent on the real villains, Hamas. The irony of Biden throwing shade from the comfort of his political perch while Israel is under relentless attack feels lost in translation.
As Biden critiques Netanyahu, Vice President Kamala Harris is finding herself in a bit of a political pickle. A recent poll reveals that her standing among Muslim voters has plummeted, and in a shocking twist, she has apparently fallen back in line behind Jill Stein and even Donald Trump in swing state popularity. The far-left Council on American-Islamic Relations commissioned this survey—in a move that raises eyebrows, it seems even the left-leaning organizations can’t prop up Harris when the people have spoken.
I’m def not a green party girlie myself, but Kamala is pretty clearly communicating that she doesn’t need Muslim and anti-genocide voters, so if this data is accurate, Kamala has no one to blame but herself. Go yell at her, not voters she’s abandoned. Arms embargo now. https://t.co/4d5rFiAgcH

What does this survey have to say about the standing of the Vice President? In battleground states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona, Jill Stein appears to be taking the lead with numbers that have Harris sweating bullets. It’s reported that she’s trailing Stein, who is clocking in favorability at a staggering 44% in Wisconsin while Harris clings to survival. Georgia and Pennsylvania still show some glimmers of hope for Harris, but the fact that in key states she’s competing with a Green Party hopeful is no joke.
Digging deeper, the poll highlights some insightful numbers when the votes are dissected by race among Muslim Americans. It turns out Harris nets a respectable majority among Black Muslim voters while struggling significantly with White, Arab, and Turkic Muslims. Dr. Jill Stein is picking up steam, especially from the latter group, hinting that the VP’s popularity is beginning to evaporate in front of our very eyes. And then there’s Trump, whose support among various Muslim demographics isn’t as negligible as one might think—demonstrating that even though Democrats take certain voting blocks for granted, there could be a sizable portion ready to explore alternative options.
Adding to the Democratic drama, noteworthy figures such as Alan Dershowitz are unjustly leaving the party in droves, disillusioned as they witness the heavy-handed influence the radical left continues to wield over Democratic leadership. Dershowitz recently critiqued Harris for overlooking Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as a running mate, suggesting that her choices have been influenced by leftist pressure. In a party that once prided itself on diversity of thought, their apparent aversion to moderate candidates is driving a wedge between them and important voter demographics—something they might want to bear in mind as elections loom on the horizon.
In summary, Biden’s criticisms of Netanyahu and Harris’s apparent struggles among Muslim voters indicate a significant rift within the Democratic Party. The grassroots sentiment reflects discontent that could prove damaging to their 2024 aspirations. Instead of focusing on issues that matter—from foreign policy crises to unresponsive leadership—Democrats seem to be losing their grip on voters and are caught in an introspective tailspin that could be their undoing come election day.
