The result that should really cause you to update your beliefs about this year’s midterms is not in the topline or the Times’ official reporting, but hidden deep in the poll’s crosstabs.
A big story of the 2024 election was that Donald Trump made inroads with non-voters who traditionally leaned Democratic, and even got some of them to turn out for him.
But now it’s looking like he has squandered those gains and put his party on the path to midterm defeat in the House

Chief Justice Roberts has been bulldozing through Supreme Court judgments on behalf of the GOP, based not on constitutionality, but entirely on his own politics.
It's nothing but a massively unethical power grab & NYT has published the receipts.

A recent survey by the American Jewish Committee, a nonprofit, found that
91 percent of American Jews say they feel less safe in the United States in the wake of high-profile attacks last year,
including the arson attack at the home of Pennsylvania’s governor, Josh Shapiro,
and the killing of two Israeli Embassy aides last spring outside a Jewish museum in Washington.
More than half said that they had changed their behavior out of fear.

After Synagogue Attack in Michigan, Some Jews Wonder How Much More Security Is Possible
“We are synagogues — we are houses of worship,” one rabbi said. “We are not Fort Knox.”
