Poll: Biden’s approval rating on economy stagnates despite slowing inflation

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:11:12 GMT

By Josh Boak and Emily Swanson | Associated PressWASHINGTON — President Joe Biden has devoted the past several weeks to promoting the positive impacts of his policies — but his efforts have yet to meaningfully register with the public.Only 36% of U.S. adults approve of Biden’s handling of the economy, slightly lower than the 42% who approve of his overall performance, according to the new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.Both figures are close to where Biden’s approval numbers have stood for about the past year and a half, including just two months ago. Signs of an improving economic outlook have done little to sway how people feel about the Democratic president as he gears up for a 2024 reelection campaign that could pit him against his predecessor and 2020 opponent, Republican Donald Trump.Job growth has stayed solid with the unemployment rate at 3.5%, while the pace of inflation has slowed sharply over the past year to the annual rate of 3.2%...

Movie Review: ‘Strays’ is furry, foul, filthy, feculent — and occasionally funny

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:11:12 GMT

Hey there, fellow obsessive dog owner. Ever wonder what your beloved pooch is thinking? Of course you do. If they could only tell us what’s on their minds, right?Well, in “Strays,” an aggressively raunchy, gleefully gross and only occasionally truly funny comedy voiced by Will Ferrell and Jamie Foxx, we find out. Turns out our canine friends are endlessly curious about why we collect their poop in little plastic bags. It must be for something really important, they surmise. But what? And why do we keep needing more?It’s actually one of the film’s cleverer jokes, and Foxx’s Boston terrier, Bug, has an opinion on the matter — but we won’t elaborate because it’s kinda gross. There’s a lot of gross, both kinda and mega, over this film’s 93-minute running time. Also a lot of poop jokes, and penis jokes, both canine and human. You get the picture. Although some of these pictures may stay in your mind for way longer than you’d like.“Strays,” directed by Josh Greenbaum with a script by Dan ...

And the team knows that.”The Sky are tied for eighth with the Los Angeles Sparks at 12-18 and are 5-9 since Vatansever took over. They’ve lost three straight after winning three in a row. With 10 games remaining, they have some work to do if they’re going to grab one of eight postseason spots and make the playoffs for the fifth year in a row.“There’s definitely been some ups and downs with the coaching change, injuries early in the season, people coming and going,” forward Morgan Bertsch said. “We definitely hit some adversi...
