Democrat approval crashes to record low in new poll
Centre of the American Experiment President John Hinderaker has slammed Democrat voters who want their representatives to be 'more extreme' and 'farther left'. According to a Quinnipiac poll, only 19 per cent of registered voters approve of the way Democrats are handling their job in Congress. 'I think the reason why that number is so extraordinarily low is that many Democrats don't approve of congressional Democrats because they want them to be more extreme, farther left, [and to] fight the Trump administration harder.'

America's reliance on China's pharmaceuticals is ‘unacceptable'
President of the Centre of the American Experiment John Hinderaker discusses US President Donald Trump's tariffs on pharmaceuticals, criticising America's heavy reliance on China for essential drugs. 'We import a huge percentage of our pharmaceuticals, especially our generics, from China, and that's just unacceptable,' Mr Hinderaker told Sky News host Rita Panahi. 'To some extent, Australia might be a little bit caught in the crossfire here. I don't mind Australia producing drugs for the US, but I don't want to rely on the Chinese for it.'

‘Significant chunk' of US Republicans do not support Tucker Carlson's view on Iran conflict
Centre of the American Experiment President John Hinderaker says conservative commentator Tucker Carlson is not a true reflection of the wider Republican Party's view on the conflict in Iran. J.L. Partners conducted a survey which showed 81 per cent of MAGA republicans support Israel's strikes against Iran. 'I don't think there is much of a split in the MAGA movement on this Iran issue,' Mr Hinderaker told Sky News host James Macpherson. 'The idea that there is a significant chunk of the Republican Party that is isolationist or passivist or anti-Israel is just wrong. 'A guy like Tucker Carlson does not speak for any significant number of Republicans or MAGA believers on this issue.'
