1. Americans' confidence in U.S. courts hits record low
Tue Dec 17, 2024, 01:24 PM
Dec 17

Driving the news: Thirty-five percent of respondents said they had confidence in the U.S. judicial system and courts, per Gallup's poll. That's a drop from 42% last year.

By the numbers: Confidence in the courts has dropped for both those who approve and disapprove of U.S. leadership under President Biden.

2024 also marks the first time that confidence in the courts has been below 50% among both those who approve and those who disapprove of U.S. leadership.
Only 44% of those who approve of U.S. leadership under Biden expressed confidence in the judicial system and courts in 2024.
This year is the first on record that confidence in the judiciary among those who approve of U.S. leadership has dipped below 60%. Sentiment among this group remained steady between 2021 and 2023 before dropping this year.

Wonder if they have done a poll on the DOJ ? Bet the DOJ would be even lower. IMO

46 months and counting
34 days for the release of an un-redacted Smith report. Count down as suggested.
