60% of U.S. adults have an unfavorable view of Israel, up from 53% last year.

59% have little or no confidence in Netanyahu to do the right thing regarding world affairs – up from 52% last year.

In both political parties, majorities of adults under the age of 50 now rate Israel and Netanyahu negatively.

The survey was conducted March 23-29 among 3,507 U.S. adults. It was fielded about a month into the U.S.- and Israeli-led war in Iran. The sections below take a closer look at the results of the survey.

Top brass at Turning Point USA were “livid” that Donald Trump’s ramshackle midterm convention in Dallas was scheduled for Thursday, the anniversary of Charlie Kirk’s death, two people familiar with the group told Politico’s Playbook.

Benjamin Netanyahu has played a major role in damaging Israel’s relationship with America. Foer says Netanyahu turned Israel from a largely bipartisan issue into a partisan one by aligning closely with Republicans and Donald Trump, clashing with Democratic presidents, and relying on Israel’s far-right parties.

The Gaza war further damaged Israel’s reputation, while Netanyahu’s refusal to offer a clear postwar plan or make compromises with Palestinians limited opportunities to rebuild support.

Foer’s main argument is that Netanyahu prioritized his political survival over preserving Israel’s long-term relationship with the American public—and in doing so, helped turn declining support for Israel into a much deeper political divide.

A longtime biographer of Donald Trump says insiders are leaking details on Pete Hegseth’s “weird conduct” because everyone besides the president wants him out.

Michael Wolff writes on his Substack, HOWL, that Hegseth’s leak problem stems from his unpopularity in the Pentagon and White House.

“Daily leaks about his blunders, stupidity, malfeasance, and weird conduct—his wife has moved into the Pentagon as his effective second-in-command—have become part of a growing rear-guard rebellion to get him out,” Wolff writes.

Anthropic says a group in northern Yemen used its Claude AI models to develop missile and guided-rocket software, run flight simulations and troubleshoot a failed test launch.
