Donald Trump and his administration haven’t hidden their desire to use the power of the executive branch to manipulate the system to favor Republicans in next year’s midterm elections.

The president recently called for Texas to gerrymander its voting districts to net Republicans an additional five GOP-friendly districts ahead of next year’s elections, and a new report from The Washington Post shines a light on other actions Trump officials and allies have taken recently that could threaten free and fair political races in 2026 and beyond.

As the Post reports:

> The Trump administration and its allies have launched a multipronged effort to gather data on voters and inspect voting equipment, sparking concern among local and state election officials about federal interference ahead of the 2026 midterms.

The Post reports one of these “unusual” efforts has been led by a pro-Trump consultant named Jeff Small, a former chief of staff to Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., who has claimed to be working with the White House as he’s reached out to county election officials to ask whether they would let the feds physically examine their election equipment. Multiple Republican clerks in Colorado have expressed outrage at Small’s request and said it would be improper. (Small did not immediately respond to MSNBC’s request for comment on his reported work on behalf of the Trump administration.)

TEL AVIV, Israel — Israel on Wednesday conducted airstrikes in downtown Damascus, the Syrian capital.

The Israeli military said the targets included Syria's military headquarters in Damascus as well as another military target near the Syrian presidential palace.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz posted a video on X of a TV news live shot in Damascus in which a building is seen exploding behind the presenter. "The painful strikes have begun," Katz wrote.

Syria's Health Ministry said one person was killed and 28 injured from the strikes.

The strikes came amid ongoing tensions in southwest Syria, home to the minority Druze, whose community straddles the border between Israel-occupied Golan Heights and Syria. The Syrian military joined Bedouin militias in clashes against the Druze.

Israel struck the Syrian military there on Monday and Tuesday in what they said was an effort to protect the Druze and keep the Syrian side of the border demilitarized.

Earlier Wednesday, U.S. special envoy to Syria Tom Barrack said the administration condemned the violence in southern Syria's city of Sweida and called on all parties to de-escalate and negotiate a ceasefire.

Fifa had to give Chelsea F.C a replica of Gold Club World Cup Trophy after President Donald Trump has stolen the geniune Gold Club World Cup Trophy

The new federal spending bill is expected to boost sales of private jets, as owners take advantage of faster write-offs of the purchase price.

Jet brokers and advisors said they’ve seen a burst of activity from clients who were holding off on purchases until the bill was signed. Among its many new tax provisions is the reinstatement of “bonus depreciation,” which allows businesses to immediately write off 100% of the purchase price of capital equipment, including private jets.

Individuals, who typically own a jet through their private business or holding company, can now write off the entire cost of a new or used jet in the first year of ownership for any plane placed into service in or after Jan. 19, 2025.

The tax benefit only applies to business jets, not jets used for personal use. It revives a provision of the 2017 tax cuts and replaces the current phased-out depreciation percentages of 60% in 2024 and 40% in 2025.

“We’ve had a number of owners who were looking to upgrade and have been waiting for this,” said Barry Shevlin, CEO of FlyUSA, the aviation solutions company. “And I have at least a half-dozen others who are looking to buy after this was passed.”

The tax stimulus comes at just the right time for the private jet industry, which has seen a slowdown in growth from its feverish pitch in 2020 and 2021. The industry saw a surge in new owners, charter fliers and fractional owners after Covid, but many of the wealthy who bought planes then for the first time have started selling them or moving to fractional ownership due to higher-than expected maintenance and pilot costs.

The number of pre-owned business jets for sale increased to an average monthly rate of over 1,800 in the first half, according to JetNet. That’s up from 1,744 in the first half of 2024. The average time on market has also increased, to 418 days from 386 days, the data firm said.

The marching orders have been received, and some of Donald Trump’s most loyal foot soldiers in the MAGA media ecosystem are already dutifully falling in line.

After the right-wing uproar over the Justice Department’s Jeffrey Epstein memo hit a crescendo this weekend after the president’s Truth Social post calling for the MAGA base to let it go and leave Attorney General Pam Bondi alone, key Trump ally Charlie Kirk declared Monday that he was “done talking about Epstein” for the time being.

Kirk’s announcement comes a day after he spoke to the president on the phone to express his support for Bondi, according to CNN. Bondi has come under extreme fire from MAGA critics, including Kirk, who have blasted the attorney general for releasing an unsigned memo last week concluding that Epstein had no “client list,” died by suicide while awaiting trial and did not blackmail prominent figures who allegedly took part in his underage sex trafficking.

“Members of the president’s inner circle have also reached out to some of Bondi’s critics to essentially ask them to ramp it down, noting that Trump, at this moment, was not getting rid of his attorney general,” CNN added. “Sources cautioned that while Trump was currently still supporting Bondi, things could always change.”

Trump privately doubling down in his support for Bondi comes after he took to his social media site on Saturday afternoon to complain about his “boys” and “gals” continuing to obsess over the Epstein case, adding that files related to the disgraced financier were “written by Obama” and “Crooked Hillary” and were therefore not worth “caring about.” He added that his supporters should cease calling for Bondi to be fired over the memo.

Donald Trump's standing with America's middle-income earners has taken a sharp hit, with new polling showing that recent gains in approval among this crucial voting bloc have reversed course.

Trump made inroads with middle-class voters in the 2024 election, who previously broke for the Democrats by around 56 percent in 2020, with 42 percent of voters on incomes between $50,000-$100,000 voting for Trump.

But by 2024, that had reversed almost completely, with middle-class voters breaking for Trump by 52 percent and 46 percent choosing the Democrats.

However, polling now suggests Trump's support among middle class voters may be crumbling.

According to the latest YouGov/Economist polling, conducted between July 4-7 among 1,528 adults, net support for Trump among adults earning between $50,000 and $100,000 a year—a key slice of the middle class—has fallen to a low of -14 points.

In May, 44 percent of middle-income respondents approved of Trump's job performance while 52 percent disapproved, giving him a net rating of -8 points. By June, that gap had narrowed significantly, with approval ticking up to 49 percent and disapproval dropping to 48 percent, bringing his net approval to just -1 point—the best level he'd seen with this group in months.

But that momentum has now evaporated. In the latest YouGov/Economist poll only 42 percent of Americans in the $50,000—$100,000 income bracket approve of Trump, while 56 percent disapprove—pushing his net approval among the middle class back down to -14 points.

Experts told Newsweek that economic anxieties seem to be increasingly driving down Trump's poll numbers among middle-class voters.
