Latino identity fractures politics in 2024 battlegrounds, Pew finds

A Pew study shows Latino voters aren’t a monolith: Trump supporters largely identify as American and feel Latino issues affect their lives less, while Harris supporters favor origin-based labels and feel a stronger connection to discrimination and shared fate. Despite Trump’s strong showing among Latinos in 2024, the findings highlight deep internal divides and a broad preference for the term 'Hispanic' over 'Latino' or 'Latinx/Latine,' complicating campaign outreach ahead of the midterms.

Indians’ faith in Trump wanes as Pew data flag record-high US disapproval

Pew’s 2026 data show Indians’ view of the US has soured: 45% view the US favourably, 31% unfavourable (a 25-year high), and only 39% have confidence in Donald Trump to do the right thing internationally—the lowest on record. Indians largely oppose Trump’s tariffs and handling of Venezuela and Iran, and Washington’s immigration policies (32% back immigration policy, 17% approve of Venezuela policy, 28% back Iran policy). The findings mark a sharp shift from earlier years when US leadership enjoyed stronger Indian support.

Global trust in the United States collapses under Trump, Pew finds

A Pew Research Center survey of over 42,000 people in 36 countries finds 76% have no confidence in Donald Trump’s leadership on world affairs and only 23% express confidence; trust in the US as a partner has sharply declined in major allies—UK reliability falls from 82% in 2022 to 49%, and Canada from 83% to 35%—as criticisms mount over Gaza handling, tariffs and the Russia-Ukraine war, though Trump supporters say he is restoring America’s standing.

Poll busts Trump’s claim of worldwide admiration for U.S.

A Pew Research Center survey of 36 countries finds less than a quarter of global adults express confidence in Trump’s leadership on global affairs, with the United States at 37% favorability and Canada dropping from 83% to 35% since 2022; 56% say the U.S. government doesn’t respect personal freedoms and a median of 63% say the U.S. contributes little or nothing to global peace, with only seven nations granting a majority positive view (Israel at 81%). The findings contrast with Trump’s rhetoric of universal American strength amid ongoing tensions over Iran.

Global Skepticism Grows Toward Trump and U.S. Leadership in 2026, Pew Finds

A Pew Research Center survey of 42,151 people across 36 countries (Feb. 8–May 13, 2026) finds widespread negative views of Donald Trump and dimmer perceptions of the U.S. as a reliable partner. A median 23% express confidence in Trump, 37% have a favorable view of the U.S., and 57% view the U.S. unfavorably, with large declines in trust since 2022. The share that sees the U.S. as contributing to peace and stability, and as considering other countries’ interests, has fallen in many nations. Israel remains a relative bright spot for Trump’s reception, but across most regions, especially Europe and the Asia-Pacific, views are negative and opinions of Trump’s foreign-policy handling are largely disapproved. Overall, global sentiment toward U.S. democracy and leadership has weakened compared with previous years.

Younger adults are more likely to use AI but also more likely to express skepticism about its societal benefits. Concerns about privacy and data security are widespread, with 71% worried AI could make their personal information less secure. The survey of 5,119 American adults was conducted Feb. 17–23.

Global skepticism about Israel and Netanyahu grows, Pew survey finds

Pew Research Center’s Spring 2026 Global Attitudes Survey across 36 countries shows a median 67% of adults view Israel unfavorably and 25% favorably, with little confidence in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in most places; Kenya and the Philippines are notable exceptions where a majority express confidence. Views are especially negative in Muslim‑majority countries and Europe, while younger people and those on the political left tend to be more negative, widening the left–right gap in the U.S. Unfavorable opinions have risen since 2025 in 13 of 24 trend countries, and Netanyahu’s overall confidence has declined in many nations, led by a sharp drop in South Korea.

Trump-led National Mall prayer rally sparks debate over faith and government

President Trump organized a nine-hour 'Rededicate 250' prayer event on the National Mall to mark the 250th anniversary, featuring Christian speakers and video messages from Trump and allies. Supporters call it a religious renewal, while critics say it blurs church-state boundaries and violates the First Amendment; Pew data show most Americans still support church-state separation, though a rising minority favors an official Christian role.

A Pew Research Center report shows Americans view religion as a positive force but resist Christian nationalist ideas, with broad support for the separation of church and state and for churches staying out of day-to-day politics, indicating Trump-era religious conservatism hasn’t shifted public opinion in a meaningful way.

Catholic Decline Outpaces Gains as Protestant Shifts Vary Globally, Pew Finds

Pew Research Center’s 24-country analysis shows Catholics losing more adherents than they gain through switching in most places, with Hungary as a rare exception where more people join than leave. Protestantism has mixed net shifts, with gains in several Latin American countries (notably Brazil) and losses in parts of Europe; most countries keep Protestants under 25% of the population, while Ghana (62%) and Kenya (55%) are majority-Protestant. Many former Catholics become Protestants or unaffiliated, illustrating diverse switching patterns worldwide.

More Than Half of Americans Saw a Movie in Theaters in 2025, Pew Finds

A Pew Research Center survey from 2025 shows 53% of U.S. adults saw a movie in theaters in the prior year, with 7% never visiting a theater; attendance varies by age, income, race and political affiliation, with younger and higher-income groups more likely to attend. Box-office indicators show a partial recovery: about 769 million tickets sold in the U.S./Canada in 2025 (less than half the 2002 peak of 1.6 billion) and just over $9 billion in ticket revenue, still about 20% below pre-pandemic levels; a separate August 2025 study found 77% of Americans aged 12–74 went to at least one theater movie in the past year.
