DEAD HEAT: Stunning New Poll Shows GOP Drawing Even With Dems Ahead of Midterms

A stunning new survey conducted by the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard (CAPS), the Harris Poll, and HarrisXsuggests that the GOP has drawn even with the Democrats with eight months to go until the midterm elections.
The poll of 1,999 registered voters, which was conducted online between February 25 and 26,found that 50% of Americans would vote for the Republican candidate in their congressional districtand 50% would vote for the Democratic one if the midterms were held today.That marked an enormous improvement for the GOP, which trailed the Democrats 54%-46% on the same question last month.
When presented with the following hypothetical campaign message from the GOP, 54% of respondents said they found it “believable”:
Republicans say that they are returning responsibility to government by arresting criminals, closing the borders, keeping tax es low, and lowering energy costs. We can’t go back to the Democrats who were allowing our cities and way of life to deteriorate and prices on energy and food to soar while fraud took billions and billions of dollars of their giveaway programs.
Just 48% of respondents, meanwhile, said they found this hypothetical message from Democrats credible:
Democrats say we are for affordability. Free government services. Free housing and transportation. Healthcare for all. Free student loans. We have the money and can provide these services if you elect us to office and we will bring down the billionaires
Sixty-one percent of Americans, though, indicated that they would be receptive to an overtly anti-Trump message from Democrats along the lines of:
Suppose the Democrats say we need to stop Donald Trump. He is a runaway dictator,
and we need a check on his power by returning the Congress to the Democrats. His
tariffs are increasing prices, and he is off on foreign adventures.
For his part, Trump’s net approval rating ticked upward from -6 last month (45%-51%) to -3, (46%-49%).

Israel’s Iron Beam laser: What can it do, and was it used against missiles from Lebanon?analysis
Israel, the US, and other countries have worked on this technology. However, recent advances in technology have enabled lasers to finally become more practical for military uses.

On Monday morning, a number of social media accounts circulated what they believed was an example of lasers intercepting Hezbollah rockets. The video showed rockets being launched from Lebanon, and many of the rockets appeared to explode soon after lift-off. The video did not show lasers intercepting rockets, but the mass interest in the new technology is clear.

Araghchi yelled at Witkoff after hearing US demands - NBC
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi began yelling at US envoy Steve Witkoff after the USdelegation laid out its demand that Iran not enrich uranium for the next 10 years during last Thursday’s talks in Geneva aimed at averting war, NBC News reported, citing a senior Trump administration official.
“If you prefer, I can leave,” Witkoff responded, according to the report.
Afterward, the US delegation reported back to President DonaldTrump what had happened. Trump was “nonplussed,”the report quoted the senior official as saying.
Seems to be the last line of trying to negotiate!

Defiant Khamenei loyalist blasts Trump's 'delusional fantasies' as he warns US: 'We will not negotiate' 1/3
A veteran powerbroker loyal to Iran's slain Supreme Leaderhas ripped Trump's 'delusional fantasies' and warned the US that he is not willing to negotiate.
Ali Larijani, a close ally of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,delivered the blunt message on Sundayafter announcing the formation of a provisional governing structure within hours of the airstrike that killed the supreme leader.
Larijani accused the United States and Israel of seeking to 'plunder and disintegrate' Iran and warned so-called 'secessionist groups' within his country. (Isn’t that what Iran does, “plunder and disintegrate?”)
He delivered a direct rebuke to President Donald Trump and warned: 'We will not negotiate.'
'Trump plunged the region into chaos with his "delusional fantasies" and now fears more American troop casualties,' Larijani wrote on X.
'With his delusional actions, he turned his self-made "America First" slogan into "Israel First" and sacrificed American soldiers for Israel's power-hungry ambitions.'
Larijani vowed that theIranian regime would retaliate while claiming the US was the aggressor.
'Today, the Iranian nation is defending itself. The armed forces of Iran did not initiate the aggression.'
Larijani said Tehran did not wish to attack neighboring countries in the Middle East.But he felt Iran had no choicebut to respond when they are hosting American military bases which are being used to attack Iran.
'To the countries of the region: We are not seeking to attack you,' Larijani wrote (==Why to hell did you attack them! Iran’s biggest mistake of all time.)
'But when the bases located in your country are used against us, and when the United States carries out operations in the region relying on these forces, then we will target those bases.For these bases are not part of the land of those countries; rather, they are American soil.'
Larijani warned that any rogue elements in the country would face a harsh response if they moved against the state.
A former parliament speaker and veteran member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, he has overseen portfolios ranging from nuclear diplomacy to regional alliances and internal security.
His appointment came after last year's 12-day air war between Iran and Israel that drew in the United States, returning him formally to the core of Iran's security establishment - a post he had also held two decades earlier.
In Tehran,with a leadership vacuum opening at the very top of the Islamic Republic, Larijani has moved swiftly to fill it.
Born in Najaf, Iraq, in 1958into one of Iran's most prominent clerical families, Larijani holds a doctorate in philosophy. (Did he forget his philosophy training?)

He is the best liar in Iran
2/2
Several of his brothers have served in senior government roles.Though barred from runningin the 2021 and 2024 presidential elections by the Guardian Council,he has remained embedded in the regime's inner circle.
In recent months,Larijani traveled to Oman to prepare for indirect nuclear talks with Washington, even as US forces built up in the region.
He also made repeated visits to Moscow, meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin as Tehran deepened security ties with the Kremlin.
He has likewise been involved in managing Iran's long-termcooperation framework with China.
At times, Larijani struck a pragmatic tone when it comes to nuclear weapons.
'In my view, this issue is resolvable,' he told Oman state television last month, referring to talks with the United States.
'If the Americans' concern is that Iran should not move toward acquiring a nuclear weapon, that can be addressed.' (So he was lying all the time.)
Larijani previously served as Iran's chief nuclear negotiator from 2005 to 2007 and was speaker of parliament from 2008 to 2020 - a period that included the 2015 nuclear agreement with world powers. (Negotiations with Obama. Why did Obama and Bidan send them money, why?)
Trump withdrew the United States from that deal in 2018 during his first term.
Because once you have discovered a technology, they can't take the discovery away,' Larijani told PBS Frontline in September 2025.
'It's as if you are the inventor of some machine, and the machine is stolen from you.You can still make it again.'
Washington has taken a sharply different view. In January, the US Treasury announcedsanctions against Larijani, saying he was 'one of the first Iranian leaders to call for violence in responseto thelegitimate demands of the Iranian people' during a crackdown on anti-government protests.
Rights groups have said thousands were killed during the unrest - the most serious domestic upheaval since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
Larijani, for his part, drew a distinction between economic protests and what he described as armed agitation.
'Popular protests must be completely separated from these terrorist-similar groups,' state media quoted him as saying on January 10.
'The rioters are an urban quasi-terrorist group,' he was quoted as saying on January 26.
On Sunday, Israel's military said it had killed 40 'key' Iranian commanders in near-simultaneous strikes, including chief of staff Abdolrahim Mousavi, within a minute of hitting Khamenei.
The coordinated assault decapitated much of Iran's top military leadership and triggered retaliatory missile launches across the region.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's grandson, Hassan Khomeini look on as they visit the shrine of the leader of Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, in southern Tehran, Iran, January 31, 2026.
Khamenei's death brings Khomeini's grandson into focus 1/2
March 1 (Reuters) - A grandson of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the late founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran,is likely to figure prominently in the deliberations of the clerics who will determine who replaces Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as Supreme Leader.
The killing of Khamenei, 86, in a U.S.-Israeli attack has broughtnew urgencyto the question of who will be the next Supreme Leader, a long-simmering issue over which there had been no clarity despite his age.
Hassan Khomeini is the most visible of the late Ayatollah's 15 grandchildren and is seen as a relative moderate within Iran's clerical establishment. He enjoys close ties to reformists including former presidents Mohammed Khatami and Hassan Rouhani, who both pursued policies of engagement with the West when in office.
Khomeini, 53, holds a symbolically important rolein public life as custodian of his grandfather's mausoleum in southern Tehran.He has never served in government.
Some politicians inside Iranhave seen him as a rival to hardlinerswho gained sway under Khamenei,notably his son, Mojtaba.
The case for installing a moderate successor to Khamenei gained momentum amongsome Iranian politicians in the wake of unrest that swept Iran in Januaryas a means of shoring up the Islamic Republic in the face of widening dissent.
KHOMEINI DEMANDED ACCOUNTABILITY FOR AMINI'S DEATH
While loyal to the Islamic Republic established after the Shah was toppled in 1979,Khomeinihas a track record of urging reform and has occasionally voiced dissent against authorities.
In 2021, he criticised the Guardian Council -the branch of Iran's theocracyresponsible for vetting presidential candidates - after it barred reformists from running.
The council's move paved the way for the victory of hardliner Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash in 2024.
"You can't pick someone for me and tell me to vote for them!" Khomeini said at the time.
He also demanded accountability after Mahsa Amini, a young Iranian woman, died in 2022after being taken into custody by morality police, accused of violating conservative dress codes - an incident that ignited countrywide protests.
Authorities "must transparently and precisely account for what has happenedto this 22-year-old girl under the pretext of 'guidance and education'," he said.
But, reflecting his loyalty to the system, the mid-ranking cleric also criticised protesters who chanted against Khamenei.
During the unrest that swept Iran in December and January - the deadliest since the 1979 revolution - he rallied behind the establishment, accusing rioters of serving Israel, taking part in a pro-government march, andlikening some of the violence to the actions of Islamic State.
In a condolence letter, Khomeini saidKhamenei would forever "be the hero of the people of Iran and Muslims", adding: "The noble people of Iran will once again walk the path of the Imam (Khomeini) by overcoming this incident."

'PROGRESSIVE THEOLOGIAN'
A close friend of Khomeini's, speaking to Reuters in 2015,described him as a progressive theologian, especially when it comes to music, women's rights, and social freedom. He follows trends on social mediaand is interested in Western philosophy as much as Islamic thought.
His wife, Sayyeda Fatima, is the daughter of an Ayatollah, and they have four children.
Some reformists urged him to run for the presidency in 2012, but he declined.
Khomeini supported the Rouhani government that negotiated the 2015 nuclear agreement, which eased sanctions in return for limits on the nuclear programme - until U.S. President Donald Trump tore it up in 2018.
He has spoken openly about economic hardships endured by Iranians during years of sanctions imposed over the nuclear programme.
BLOCKED FROM RUNNING FOR ASSEMBLY OF EXPERTS
A decade ago,Khomeini sought to run in an election for the Assembly of Experts, the body responsible for picking the Supreme Leader.
He secured an initial nod of approval for his candidacy from Khamenei, who reportedly gave his blessing while also cautioningKhomeini against doing any harm to his grandfather's name. But he was later disqualified by the Guardian Council.
Though his religious credentials were cited for the disqualification -Khomeini holds the clerical rank of Hojatoleslam, one notch below Ayatollah- the move was seen as intended to head off a potential challenge by the reformist camp.
In 2008, he was widely regarded as criticising Iran's powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) when hesaid in an interview that those claiming loyalty to his grandfather's legacy should follow his order that the military must stay out of politics. He nevertheless enjoys close ties to the Guards, an elite force tasked with safeguarding the Islamic Revolution.
During the 12-day air war between Israel and Iran last year,Khomeini wrote to Khamenei praising his leadership and saying Iranian missiles had become a nightmare for Israeland a source of satisfaction for the Iranian nation, according to Jamaran, an Iranian news website dedicated to Khomeini's memory.
Khomeini has described Israel as the "evil Zionist regime" and "a cancerous tumor" backed by the West, and has said the Muslim world should make itself strong to confront Zionism, according to statements reported by Jamaran.
He is fluent in Arabic and English, according to the biography, and was a keen footballer until the age of 21, when his grandfather insisted he go to the city of Qom to study Islamic theology.
