‘Sick’: MAGA stunned after pollster reveals Trump admin’s move ahead of military operation

Data journalist and pollster Richard Baris claimed on Saturday that ahead of the unprecedented U.S. attack on Iran, the Trump administration had reviewed polling on how many American casualties voters would be “willing to accept in a war with Iran,” the findings of which rattled a number of MAGA loyalists.

“Polling reviewed by the administration asked how many American casualties voters were willing to accept in a war with Iran,” Baris wrote in a social media post on X Saturday morning, several hours after President Donald Trump had authorized strikes on Iran.

“The answer was ZERO. Americans demanded ZERO casualties because Americans did NOT support a war. That's how stupid this was.”

Marjorie Taylor Greene, the former Republican member of Congress from Georgia and devout MAGA faithful, responded to the apparent revelation with shock, claiming that Trump’s efforts to enact regime change in Iran were counter to what MAGA stood for.

“The Trump admin actually asked in a poll how many casualties voters were willing to accept in a war with Iran???” Greene wrote Saturday in a social media post on X. “How about ZERO you bunch of sick f------ liars. We voted for America First and ZERO wars.”

Efforts are currently underway to halt the Trump administration’s military operation in Iran – dubbed Operation Epic Fury – including a War Powers Resolution – a legislative tool to check the president’s authority to declare war – that has steadily grown support among both Democratic and Republican lawmakers.

Baris is the editor at People’s Pundit Daily and the director of Big Data Poll, and has been cited by some analysts for having produced the most accurate poll ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

Golden Trump statue holding Bitcoin appears outside U.S. Capitol

The post Golden Trump statue holding Bitcoin appears outside U.S. Capitol appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A 12-foot golden statue of Trump gripping a Bitcoin was placed outside the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday evening in Washington. The installation appeared just before the Federal Reserve’s latest interest rate announcement. It stood along 3rd Street from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., pulling crowds as D.C. tried to make sense of a foam version of the president staring down Congress with a crypto in hand. At 2 p.m., the Fed cut its benchmark interest rate by 0.25 percentage points, bringing the short-term rate from 4.3% to 4.1%. It’s the first rate cut since December, after a year of concerns about slowing job growth and rising unemployment. The Fed also outlined plans for two more cuts before the end of this year, but said it only expects one cut in 2026. That didn’t sit well with Wall Street, which had priced in five cuts by next year, as Cryptopolitan extensively reported. Crypto organizers livestream token to support Trump statue The statue was funded by a group of cryptocurrency investors, most of whom are staying anonymous. Their goal was to make a loud, unavoidable point about the future of crypto and government power. Hichem Zaghdoudi, who spoke for the group, said: “The installation is designed to ignite conversation about the future of government-issued currency and is a symbol of the intersection between modern politics and financial innovation. As the Federal Reserve shapes economic policy, we hope this statue prompts reflection on cryptocurrency’s growing influence.” To push the message even further, the group launched a memecoin on Pump.fun. They used multiple livestreams to pump the token and tie it directly to the statue stunt. One organizer, speaking during a stream on Tuesday, said the statue was built using “extremely hard foam” to make it easier to move. Posts on their X account…
