The LA River this morning. Not just for car chases in movies! A reminder of the power of nature — it used to regularly flood the surrounding areas during wet winters — and the power of public infrastructure.

New: @RonDeSantisFL has considerable political strengths going into a 2024 primary battle. But here’s a big red flag for the general: most of his policy positions are extremely unpopular according to the new @yahoonews/@YouGovAmerica poll. @AndrewRomano news.yahoo.com/poll-signatur…

Despite GOP criticism of Biden's Silicon Valley Bank response, a new @YahooNews @YouGovAmerica poll finds no sign of populist backlash. Oh and Americans select “the bank’s emphasis on diversity and inclusion” least often as a cause of the collapse. news.yahoo.com/poll-no-sign-…

Ron DeSantis can't stop talking about COVID. Why? Because he thinks he was "right" about it — and both Trump and Biden were "wrong." Will voters agree in 2024? Or are they tired of pandemic politics at this point? My read: news.yahoo.com/why-ron-desan…

Earlier this month, DeSantis led Trump (45-41%) in the @YahooNews @YouGovAmerica poll. Now Trump leads 47-39%. That’s a big, sudden shift. What gives? One clue: DeSantis used to lead by 9 on who has the “best chance” to win in 2024. Now they’re tied. news.yahoo.com/2024-poll-des…

One on one, DeSantis now leads Trump 45% to 41%, according to the new ⁦@YahooNews⁩ ⁦@YouGovAmerica⁩ poll. But add just one other Republican to the race — in this case, Nikki Haley (11%) — and DeSantis falls to 35%, giving Trump (38%) the lead: news.yahoo.com/poll-desantis…

We’re all accustomed to “woke” vs. “anti-woke” bickering. In schools, the ferocity of the debate is chilling speech, and teachers are missing out on a chance to educate kids because they are afraid of attracting criticism, writes @AndrewRomano. yhoo.it/3YzV9aG

California appears to be barreling toward a Senate contest that could easily become the craziest of the cycle: a civil war between some of America’s top Democrats about what it means to be a progressive in 2024. My latest: news.yahoo.com/the-2024-cali…

In every previous @YahooNews @YouGovAmerica poll, Trump led DeSantis by ~10% or more. No longer. Over the last few weeks, DeSantis has surged to a 47-42% lead among GOP voters — and a 51-40% lead among those who say they voted in the 2016 GOP primary. news.yahoo.com/poll-de-santi…

The combative attitude. The anti-“woke” agenda. The attention-seeking stunts. Even the unusual hand gestures. Great read here from @AndrewRomano news.yahoo.com/ron-de-santis… via @YahooNews
