Hood County Democrats

Hood County Democrats Hood County Democrats. We live by the core Democratic Values — Liberty, Equality, and Justice.

We believe that the Democratic Party, with its great diversity, its flexibility of organization, its historic adaptability to fruitful change, and its instinctive responsiveness to human needs and aspirations, can provide the leadership required in these challenging times. We further believe:

- That we must join together with a renewed faith in our country, in our state, and in our Party to provi

de our people with responsive, responsible government;

- That the government functions best when it is closest to the people;
that our government is and should be of laws and not of favoritism or of arbitrary caprice, and therefore we condemn any resolution or conflicts, save through legal processes;

- That all citizens, no matter what their religion or race or how humble or exalted their origin or station, have the duty to participate fully at every level of government and are entitled to an equal voice and to equal treatment at its hands; and

- That, as Democrats, we are proud and upright citizens of the United States, that we are determined not only to serve our country, but also to stand shoulder to shoulder with citizens of other states in providing meaningful, responsible, and constructive leadership for our great nation.

The biggest divide in this country is not left vs. right. It’s top vs. bottom. Billionaires want us looking left and right at each other instead of looking up at them.

The people at the top work so hard to keep us angry and divided because our unity is a threat to their wealth and power. So their cable news networks and their social media algorithms tear us apart.

They divide us by party, by race, by gender, by religion so we don’t notice they’re defunding our schools, gutting our healthcare, and cutting taxes for themselves and their rich friends. It’s the oldest strategy in the world: divide and conquer.

As of March 18, 2026, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reported that 46 people died while in their custody or detention facilities since the start of the second Trump administration in January 2025.

The number of deaths of people in detention during 2025 exceeded the highest seen in over two decades, and deaths in 2026 are on track to meet or exceed that number.

President Trump implemented immigration policy changes focused on increasing interior enforcement efforts to support mass deportation, which increased the number of immigrants detained by ICE to over 68,000 as of February 7, 2026, an increase of over 70% from the 39,000 immigrants held in detention at the end of the Biden administration in December 2024.

This brief provides an overview of deaths in ICE custody and detention centers under the Trump administration based on KFF analysis of ICE detainee death reporting and news releases and reviews recent reports of health care issues in detention centers.

The post-2024 narrative that Latino voters shifted right is facing its first real stress test — including in districts Republicans thought were safely red.

Why it matters: The biggest immediate test is in Texas, where Republicans drew new maps assuming continued Latino gains. But GOP House seats are also at risk in California, New York, Colorado and Nevada.

Latino swing may reshape 2026 midterms.

The president’s poll numbers are in the toilet. He is struggling to stay alert during key events. An overseas conflict is dampening enthusiasm among his base. Voters are furious about rising inflation.

That was the narrative around former President Joe Biden when he exited the presidential race in mid-2024. And every sentence applies now to President Donald Trump, whose recent polling is as bad as Biden’s was when he threw in the towel — or in some cases worse. But the two presidents’ reactions — and that of their parties — could not be more different.

This week’s Economist/YouGov poll, just by itself, made for rough reading for the White House: 36% approval versus 58% disapproval, for a net approval rating of -22%.

The president is now more unpopular than Joe Biden ever was
