After the midterm elections, attention will turn to the 2028 race for the White House. What is on voters’ minds as they look ahead to the next presidential election?Most Republicans want the next president to follow President Donald Trump’s policies, if not his style. Nearly 4 in 10 MAGA Republicans want Trump’s successor to emulate both, and about half want the next president to follow his policies alone. Non-MAGA Republicans are less enthusiastic: 45% want his policies to continue, but only about 15% of non-MAGA Republicans want a president with the same style.Independents prefer something entirely different: 6 in 10 want the next president to break with both Trump’s policies and his style. Likewise, few Democrats want to see either his style or his policies repeated.Even as the Democrats have won control of the Senate and the House of Representatives, and Trump finds his approval rating at 39%, a bloc of voters remains loyal to the president and is likely to influence the 2028 campaign. While half of voters want a successor who does not emulate his style or follow his policies, 26% want a president who will carry on his policies, and another 12% want the next president to copy his policies and his style.FOX NEWS VOTER POLL: 2026 MIDTERM ELECTIONS USHER IN A BLUE WAVE AS DEMOCRATS WIN CONTROL OF CONGRESSLooking ahead, voters across party lines say improving economic conditions is the most important issue for the country to address over the next five years. Six in 10 voters feel they are holding steady financially while about 3 in 10 feel they are falling behind. Few, about 1 in 10 voters, feel they are getting ahead financially. Voters who describe their own financial situation as less than satisfactory, or say they are falling behind, are more likely to name the economy as the top issue.What should tonight’s winners prioritize once sworn into office? When asked which of the following is most important for newly elected officials to work on first in 2027, 3 in 10 voters want elected officials to address grocery costs. About 2 in 10 want action on gas prices, and a similar share say they should work on healthcare and prescription drug costs.Slightly fewer are concerned about housing costs, while about 1 in 10 want officials to address electricity and other utility costs.Voters are closely divided on whether the country can look forward to better days or if the good days are behind us. And it’s linked to how they’re feeling financially. About two-thirds of those who say they are getting ahead financially are optimistic about the future. However, about two-thirds of voters who are falling behind financially think the country’s best days are in the past.Beyond the economy, priorities diverge. About 1 in 5 Democrats point to access to affordable healthcare, while about a similar share of Republicans say protecting individuals from government overreach is the top issue. About 1 in 10 independents say the country should address the affordability of healthcare, and about the same share say government overreach.Voters are divided over AI’s effect on the U.S. economy during the next 10 years. About 4 in 10 say it will be harmful, while 3 in 10 expect benefits. About 1 in 10 expect AI to make no difference while slightly more, about 2 in 10, are unsure. About 4 in 10 expect AI to negatively affect the environment and the arts and entertainment industry.About half of voters want substantial changes in how the country is run. Party identification shapes how much change voters want and which branches of government they think most need reform. Democrats are about three times as likely as Republicans to want complete and total upheaval of how the country is run. Half of democratic socialists favor complete and total upheaval, compared with about 1 in 10 MAGA Republicans.In the 2024 Fox News Voter Analysis conducted for the presidential election, most Republican voters said they wanted substantial change or total upheaval. Now, with a Republican in the White House and their party controlling both houses of Congress, they are less eager for major change.FOX NEWS VOTER POLL: HOW DEMOCRATS TOOK CONTROL OF THE SENATEOverall, 4 in 10 voters think Congress should be substantially reformed, including three-quarters of MAGA Republicans and half of non-MAGA Republicans. Democrats are less likely to say Congress needs reform, but half say the executive branch should be improved. Few voters in either party want changes to the Constitution. Democrats are more likely than Republicans or independents to say the Supreme Court needs reform.Voters across party lines support term limits for Congress and Supreme Court justices. Democrats favor abolishing the Electoral College, but Republicans and independents are less enthusiastic. Most Republicans support limiting mail voting to people physically unable to vote in person. MAGA Republicans are more supportive of limiting mail voting than non-MAGA Republicans (63% vs 40%). Democrats oppose the idea, regardless of whether they support the Democratic Socialists of America.AMERICANS CLASH OVER SUPREME COURT EXPANSION AS FIGHT OVER 9 JUSTICES HEATS UP: ‘LET’S PACK IT NOW’The expansion of artificial intelligence has triggered some public backlash against AI data centers. Voters are divided on whether AI will help or hurt during the next 10 years. More Democrats say the technology will be harmful while more Republicans expect benefits.Among Republican voters, MAGA Republicans are more enthusiastic about AI than non-MAGA Republicans. Forty-five percent of MAGA Republicans believe AI will help the U.S. to compete with other countries and another 4 in 10 feel AI will do more to help the economy.Among Democrat voters, supporters of democratic socialism and those who do not support the movement are similarly likely to feel AI will help aspects of American society. However, supporters of democratic socialism are more likely than other Democrats to feel AI will do more to hurt than help.Overall, 6 in 10 voters are extremely or very concerned about the effect of data centers on the price of utilities in the communities where they are being built. About half are concerned about the effect of data centers on pollution of natural resources, land development, or the health of the local population, regardless of whether they live near a data center. Democrats are more concerned about the effects of data centers than Republican voters, again regardless of their proximity to the facilities.Voters across party lines support requiring companies to pay for electric grid upgrades needed for their data centers, increasing government regulation of AI, and limiting AI in schools. Most Democrats and independents oppose building a data center in their community. Most voters also oppose local construction, whether their county already has a data center.AMERICA’S MULTI-BILLION TECH BOOM COMES INTO FOCUS AS 7 KEY STATES PUT IT TO A MIDTERM TESTThe economy is a top issue for most voters, yet 4 in 10 say they could support a candidate whose economic views differ from their own.After the economy and jobs, nearly 6 in 10 voters see healthcare as an important issue, and about 6 in 10 would not support a candidate who disagrees with them on healthcare policy. About half could not back a candidate whose views on Israel and the Palestinians differ from theirs. Overall, about 6 in 10 say they could never support a candidate they disagree with on abortion, guns, or immigration.Explore the results here: https://civichealth.norc.org/crosstabs.htmlThe NORC Civic Health & Elections Project (CH&EP) is a national survey of registered voters conducted October 26 through November 3, 2026 with 113,020 interviews. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish. The margin of sampling error for the national sample, including the design effect, was ±0.5 percentage points for voters and ±1.2 percentage points for nonvoters. Margins of sampling error for individual states and subgroups vary based on sample size.

“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg warned Democrats on Wednesday after they regained control of both chambers of Congress that they need to “take care of business.””A note to the Democrats, we put you in to take care of business. We don’t want to know what your back-biting fighting is, we don’t want to hear it. You can kvetch at each other after you take care of the people’s business,” Goldberg said.Democrats recaptured majorities in the House and Senate in Tuesday’s midterm elections, riding a massive blue wave that will give them control of both chambers in January 2027.STATE OF PLAY: BLUE WAVE SWEEPS DEMOCRATS INTO POWER, WITH KEY RACES STILL HANGING IN BALANCEThe co-hosts also interviewed Democratic Texas Sen.-elect James Talarico during the show, after he flipped a Republican-held U.S. Senate seat.Talarico told the co-hosts that he wanted to work with President Donald Trump to provide some “affordability crisis relief” to Texans, suggesting a suspension of federal gasoline and diesel taxes.”I want to work with both parties, I want to work with President Trump to try to provide some relief to working Texans in the middle of this affordability crisis,” he said. “I think we could suspend the federal gas tax and the federal diesel tax. That would provide some immediate relief at the pump for working families. Everybody, when you fill up your tank, you are paying a hidden tax, and this federal gas tax, if we suspend it, it could drop the price of gas by 18 cents a gallon immediately.” “And I know that’s not everything, we’re not going to be able to get the prices lower until we end this disastrous war in Iran, but it could provide necessary relief in the short term for the hard-working families in our state,” Talarico added.TRUMP’S GAMBLE ON KEN PAXTON BACKFIRES AS DEMOCRAT PULLS OFF HISTORIC TEXAS SENATE UPSETAt the end of the interview, Goldberg told Talarico, “Senator-elect, congratulations, man. We were thrilled with your win, you are where you should be.””Whoopi let her excitement get the better of her. It’s another instance of ABC’s purported ‘bona fide news program’ boldly saying the quiet part out loud and admitting that the show is 100 percent meant to be [a] vector to push Democratic Party propaganda to the American people to influence elections,” the Media Research Center’s NewsBusters associate editor Nicholas Fondacaro told Fox News Digital in a statement.”In the months and weeks leading up to the midterms, ‘The View’ was actively telling people to not only vote for Democrats but also vote for specific candidates like James Talarico. The use of the public broadcast spectrum to electioneer for a party or candidate by a licensee is a violation of federal regulations,” he continued. “The View and ABC were already under intense scrutiny from the FCC before Whoopi’s comments and they’re likely to be used against the network in any potential action by the commission.”ABC did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.Talarico also expressed a willingness to work with Trump during an interview on “The Diary of a CEO” podcast, released Monday.REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: DEMOCRATS FACE AN IMPEACHMENT TRACTOR BEAM THAT COULD DERAIL THEIR AFFORDABILITY MESSAGE”I would love, as the next U.S. senator from Texas, to work with Donald Trump to actually fulfill some of the promise of his political project,” Talarico told host Steven Bartlett.”The promise of MAGA was that we were going to transform this government so that it delivered for the people who have been left behind, the people who have been forgotten in this country. And there’s still time to do that,” Talarico continued.The co-hosts of “The View” agreed with comments from former Vice President Kamala Harris during a podcast appearance last month, saying that Democrats should not pursue impeachment proceedings against Trump if they won control of Congress.”In terms of Trump, no, I don’t think that’s what should be on the agenda,” co-host Sunny Hostin said. “Hakeem Jeffries — who I believe will be the next speaker of the House, after November — he has a plan for 100 days, which includes tax credits, taking care of the tax credits, limiting ICE and also stock trades.””And then he’s got a plan for the first 100 hours, which would include, you know, just undoing a lot of unpopular Trump policies. So, I think there is a plan in place that Democrats have, and it may not include impeaching Trump,” she added.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURECo-host Ana Navarro agreed, arguing that Democrats would be limited in what they could accomplish with Trump in the White House, saying that she was “completely against impeachment.”

Don Mancini, the creator of the Child’s Play franchise, took to social media Wednesday to brag that his murderous possessed doll, Chucky, would vote Democrat.
The comments came after rapper Nicki Minaj shared an AI-generated image of Chucky wearing a pink suit and a “Vote Red” badge on Election Day.

HAPPY ELECTION DAY!!! https://t.co/XpmJOkCnew
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) November 3, 2026

Mancini replied that the image was an “imposter” and that “Chucky is part of the blue wave that will wash away all the corruption.”

@NICKIMINAJ IMPOSTER. CHUCKY IS PART OF THE BLUE WAVE THAT WILL WASH AWAY ALL THE CORRUPTION
— Don Mancini (@RealDonMancini) November 4, 2026

In a separate post, Mancini spelled out why the stunted, possessed serial killer would supposedly align with Democrats.
“Chucky has a trans kid. Chucky protects the dolls. Chucky is anti-ICE,” he wrote. “Chucky says ‘A BLUE WAVE is coming, as BLUE as my f-ckin’ eyes!’”

Chucky has a trans kid. Chucky protects the dolls. Chucky is anti-ICE. Chucky says “A BLUE WAVE is coming, as BLUE as my fuckin’ eyes!” https://t.co/rQIS6sErCh
— Don Mancini (@RealDonMancini) November 4, 2026

Mancini followed up with a photo of Chucky with blue hair, writing, “Too bad, Nicki! No AI, by the way!” along with the hashtag #bluewave.

Too bad, Nicki! No AI, by the way! #bluewave https://t.co/XFpRdjsR9k
— Don Mancini (@RealDonMancini) November 4, 2026

The “trans kid” reference is about Glen/Glenda, the genderfluid offspring of Chucky and Tiffany, first introduced in the 2004 film Seed of Chucky.
In the later Chucky television series, the killer doll tells a teenage character that he has a “queer kid” and claims he is “not a monster.”
Mancini has previously described the franchise as one that “honors the trans experience.”
The line “protects the dolls” is a reference to support for transgender people, particularly transgender women.
Minaj, who has publicly described herself as Donald Trump’s “number one fan,” posted the AI image with the caption “HAPPY ELECTION DAY!!!”
The music icon has often used Chucky imagery for her social media posts.

@PopBase the serial killer doll with trans kids is a democrat https://t.co/d3HyC2AR3U

Of course, social media widely mocked Mancini for assigning progressive beliefs to a possessed doll whose favorite activity is stabbing and dismembering people.

Arrests, Prosecutions, & Deportations Fuel Record Drop In Crime

Authored by John R. Lott Jr. via RealClearInvestigations,The United States has been running a real-time experiment on two approaches to criminal justice: the Biden-era emphasis on social justice versus the Trump administration’s embrace of traditional law and order. The results are now in.The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) reported on Oct. 26 that felony violent crime fell by 25 percent in 2025. Rape declined by 13 percent, robbery fell by 27 percent, and aggravated assault dropped by 31 percent. Property crime fell by 19 percent. Except for rape, these are the largest one-year reductions recorded since data collection began 53 years ago.The reductions followed substantial increases during the previous four years, when felony violent crime rose by 59 percent, and violent crime, including misdemeanor simple assault, increased by 42 percent.Murder also declined sharply last year. The United States recorded about 4.1 murders per 100,000 people in 2025, a record low, down from roughly 5.1 per 100,000 in 2024. The murder rate has continued to drop. If preliminary FBI data showing an additional 18.4 percent decline during the first seven months of 2026 hold for the full year, the murder rate would fall to approximately 3.36 per 100,000.”We are witnessing a historic plunge in crime to levels never seen before in the United States,” professor Carl Moody, a crime researcher at the College of William & Mary, told RealClearInvestigations. “As a result, we are all safer in our communities than we ever have been. We should all thank our law enforcement professionals.”These declines go far beyond normal cyclical fluctuations in crime. The murder rate has fallen to record lows. Crime also shows a clear pattern over time. Felony violent crime declined during President Donald Trump’s first term, surged under President Joe Biden, and is now plunging during Trump’s second term. The COVID-19 pandemic can’t explain Biden’s increase: Felony violent crime rose by 59 percent from 2021 to 2024, including a 4 percent increase in 2024.The new Bureau of Justice Statistics data show much steeper declines in 2025 than the FBI figures released on Aug. 14. The BJS recorded a decline in felony violent crime that was 157 percent larger than the FBI’s figure and a decline in property crime that was 32 percent larger. The agencies also reported sharply different trends under Biden: The BJS found that felony violent crime soared, while the FBI reported an 8 percent decline in police-reported violent crime.The difference reflects how the agencies measure crime. The FBI counts crimes reported to police. The BJS National Crime Victimization Survey interviews roughly 240,000 Americans each year, and measures both reported and unreported crime.That distinction matters because most crime never reaches police. In 2024, victims reported only about 48 percent of violent crimes and 31 percent of property crimes. Relying only on FBI data therefore misses most victimization. While the media focus almost exclusively on FBI data, the Justice Department itself describes the BJS National Crime Victimization Survey as the nation’s “primary source of information on criminal victimization” and as the “gold standard.”Several major policy changes coincided with the decline.Federal TakeoversThe FBI dramatically increased enforcement activity in 2025. FBI arrests rose by 184 percent from 2024, while total arrests involving the FBI, including joint operations with state and local agencies, increased by 197 percent.Trump’s federal law enforcement interventions in the District of Columbia, and Memphis, Tennessee, coincided with dramatic declines in murders that far outpaced the national decline. Before Trump intervened, Memphis had the nation’s fourth-highest murder rate among cities with more than 100,000 residents, while the District of Columbia ranked 11th.Trump took federal control of the district’s policing on Aug. 11, 2025. From September through December in 2025, murders plunged by 63 percent, to 23 from 63, compared with the same four months in 2024 – the final four full months of the Biden administration.Trump began a federal law enforcement intervention in Memphis on Sept. 29, 2025. Murders there fell by 42 percent, from 50 during October through December in 2024 to 29 during the same months in 2025.More ProsecutionsProsecution policies also changed in several major jurisdictions. Voters in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Multnomah County, Oregon (which includes Portland), and other jurisdictions replaced progressive prosecutors backed by George Soros with district attorneys who have pursued more aggressive prosecution policies and tougher sentences.After taking office as Los Angeles County district attorney in December 2024, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman reversed predecessor George Gascón’s restrictions on prosecuting many misdemeanors. During the first half of 2025, prosecutors charged nearly 70 percent of the low-level cases that police referred. Gascón had imposed blanket “do-not-prosecute” policies for offenses including criminal threats and resisting arrest. Hochman also reversed Gascón’s restrictions on Three Strikes and gun- and gang-related sentencing enhancements, his refusal to prosecute juveniles for misdemeanor shoplifting involving less than $950, and his ban on seeking the death penalty.The shift in leadership from Gascón to Hochman not only resulted in more prosecutions but also led to more arrests by police. Under Hochman, there was an immediate and highly publicized wave of joint law enforcement crackdowns and targeted arrests. Under Gascón, police were demoralized and stopped arresting people because they “didn’t see the point.” Police unions openly noted a sense of futility.Federal prosecutors have also increased charging rates in some jurisdictions. In the District of Columbia, the Biden administration’s U.S. attorney brought criminal charges against about 33 percent of those arrested. Under U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, the charging rate rose to 96 percent. “The fact is, if you put criminals in jail, it helps,” Moody, the crime researcher, said.Immigration EnforcementThe crime decline has also coincided with increased immigration enforcement. While data indicate that legal immigrants commit fewer crimes than native-born citizens, illegal immigrants commit crimes at a far higher rate. The Department of Homeland Security says approximately 70 percent of illegal immigrants deported under the Trump administration had criminal convictions or pending criminal charges.The trend represents a reversal from the Biden years, when felony violent crime increased sharply as illegal immigration also reached record levels. During the Biden administration, at least 12.8 million illegal immigrants were encountered at the border, apprehended after illegal crossings, or classified as known gotaways. The total also excludes undetected border crossings. During some surges, officials pulled 80 percent or more of Border Patrol agents away from guarding the border, while 30 percent of the cameras in Border Patrol’s main surveillance system were broken. These gaps potentially allowed millions more illegal immigrants to cross the border undetected.State prison data also illustrate the potential relationship between illegal immigration and crime. At the end of 2025, 7,113 illegal immigrants were incarcerated in New York, accounting for 14 percent of the state’s inmate population, at least 3.4 times illegals’ share of the state population. That is the best data available, but even that data understates the total because New York does not systematically identify inmates’ immigration status, and federal authorities can deport some illegal immigrants before they complete their sentences.”The increased deportation of illegal immigrants who had a criminal record played an important role in the historic reduction in violent crime in the last two years,” David Mustard, a distinguished professor at the University of Georgia who researches crime extensively, told RealClearInvestigations.At the same time, more Americans report carrying concealed handguns for protection. Surveys show that the share of general-election voters who carry concealed handguns increased to 30.9 percent in July 2026 from 24.3 percent in December 2024. The increase has been especially pronounced among minority voters, who are the most likely victims of violent crime. Hispanic and black voters are 2.6 times as likely as white voters to report carrying all or most of the time.Recent peer-reviewed research finds that right-to-carry concealed handgun laws reduce violent crime by about 5 percent, while constitutional carry laws reduce it by more than 15 percent.Researchers point out that the historic decline in crime coincided with more aggressive law enforcement, tougher prosecution policies, increased deportations of criminal illegal immigrants, and more Americans carrying firearms for self-defense.”The results are unmistakable,” said professor Gary Mauser, who has extensively studied crime at Simon Fraser University in Canada. “Americans experienced unprecedented drops in crime rates in 2025, and rates are continuing to fall in 2026. The government’s most comprehensive measure of crime shows that the improvement was far greater than the FBI’s widely publicized figures suggested.”

The Philadelphia Eagles hope Joe Milton can help make things sunny again.The Eagles are making a quarterback change, as they have benched struggling backup Tanner McKee in favor of Milton, according to ESPN. McKee has started the last three games for the Eagles after Jalen Hurts was ruled out for the season with blood clots, and Philadelphia has lost all three.The quarterback change is relatively surprising because head coach Nick Sirianni gave McKee a vote of confidence on Monday.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE”Tanner’s our guy. We’re not making any changes there,” Sirianni told reporters on Monday.He said the team was committed to finding solutions, as the Eagles have lost their last six games after beginning the season 2-0. Sirianni said whether the issue is scheme, execution or a mental error, responsibility falls on the coaches.Just two days after those comments, the Eagles made the switch to Milton. Philadelphia signed Milton off the Dallas Cowboys’ practice squad on Oct. 16, and Sirianni has praised his work ethic.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE.

I know the developmental periods, those always help to be able to run our plays. He works extremely hard, he’s always in the building doing the extra things and yeah, I like his progression.”Milton began his career with the New England Patriots after being selected in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Tennessee. He spent one season with the Patriots before being traded to the Cowboys, where he served as Dak Prescott’s backup in 2025.Milton has appeared in five games, with his only full-game appearance coming in a meaningless contest for the Patriots in 2024. Against the Buffalo Bills in Week 18, he completed 22 of 29 passes for 241 yards with one passing touchdown and one rushing touchdown.In four games with the Cowboys last season, he completed 15 of 24 passes for 183 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. Milton will be the fourth quarterback to throw a pass for the Eagles this season alongside Hurts, McKee and Andy Dalton. The Eagles released Dalton after he threw an interception on his lone pass during the team’s loss to the Chicago Bears.The Eagles hope he can provide a spark when they play the New York Giants (4-2-1) on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.

Who could forget when the news broke that legendary backup quarterback Devlin “Duck” Hodges was dating Lainey Wilson, who at the time was labeled as having country music’s biggest butt.That’s an honor that has since passed her by. It was more than three years ago now that the months of speculation had finally come to an end. The retired football player and the country star have since married.Duck is now the supportive husband of one of the biggest stars in country music and an inspiration to his buddies who want him to set them up with his wife’s friend Ella Langley.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE.

Ella is on top of country music right now and unless any of these guys had a run like he had with the Steelers during “Duck Mania,” do they really think they have a shot?Not to discourage love or shooting your shot from full court. Hey, sometimes those shots go in. I get you think it’s worth a shot if you’re boys with Duck to at least throw it out there.I say go for it, but don’t expect to land a date with one of the singers on top of country music by hitting up Duck Hodges.

Hakeem Jeffries, the underwhelming House Minority Leader, announced his bid for House Speaker on Wednesday after the Democrats swept the House in the midterm elections.
The Democrats flipped the House and Senate on Tuesday evening.
By Wednesday morning, the Democrats had officially won 228 House seats, and the count will still rise.
The New York Democrat echoed Barack Obama’s message of “change” in his letter to his colleagues.
Jeffries told his colleagues that the Democrat party must deliver “dramatic change” to the American people.
Politico reported:
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is running for speaker, he announced in a letter to colleagues Wednesday.
Democrats have long considered the New Yorker — who has served two terms as minority leader — the heir apparent to longtime leader Nancy Pelosi. If he wins the Jan. 3 floor vote, he would become the House’s first Black speaker.
“Against all odds, House Democrats were consistently successful in the minority,” Jeffries wrote in the letter. “We must now deliver the dramatic change the American people are demanding in the majority.”
Jeffries is well-positioned to lead House Democrats next term. Although an incoming crop of hard-left members has not committed to backing him for speaker, no alternative candidate has emerged, and the size of the Democratic majority appears likely to make a small group of holdouts irrelevant.
Jeffries has not explicitly promised to impeach President Trump if he becomes House Speaker, but he didn’t rule it out either.
“The American people don’t want us to get even. They want us to get things done on their behalf because life is way too expensive,” Jeffries recently told MS NOW when asked about a possible impeachment.
Jeffries did, however, say that the Democrats will “hold the Trump Administration accountable.”
