« Nous empruntons une nouvelle voie en matière de dissuasion nucléaire : au sein du groupe de pilotage créé récemment, nous réfléchissons au mix de capacités qui nous permettra d’accroître à l’avenir notre dissuasion nucléaire ! » Friedrich Merz « Nous travaillons à une doctrine nucléaire en commun. Les forces allemandes conventionnelles participeront cette année à un exercice nucléaire des forces armées françaises » Friedrich Merz C’est un changement majeur, opéré en France, dans le silence absolu du Parlement, qui est devenu une chambre honorifique, alors que Macron est rejeté comme jamais par la population et que dans 298 jours son mandat sera terminé. - Ifop (juin 2026) : 21 % de satisfaits, 79 % de mécontents. - YouGov / HuffPost (début juillet 2026) : 18 % de satisfaits de son action. - Elabe / Les Échos (juillet 2026) : 23 % de confiance, 71 % de défiance. - Autres instituts (Ipsos BVA, etc.) : souvent entre 18 et 22 % d’opinions favorables ou de satisfaction. On rappelle par ailleurs que monsieur Macron a nommé des Premiers ministres de son camp alors qu’il a perdu les Européennes et les Législatives. Un président sans majorité, sans soutien ni légitimité populaires, en permanence à la limite de la légalité et qui pourtant continue de faire ce qu’il veut dans l’indifférence générale. #NuclearDeterrence #FrenchPolitics #PublicOpinion

I remind you that according to the latest survey conducted in the US, at the end of 2025 (cited in Story in the Public Square, national survey): 41% of Americans think that there was "some form of prior knowledge or involvement of the government in 9/11." This reflects (translated)

No Israeli "information campaign", however smart and costly, can undo the image of a country bent on giving the finger to "the opinions of mankind". https://t.co/VQPfO7LHZw #Israel #HumanRights #PublicOpinion #IL

Yet another piece of evidence: Political advertising campaigns have only a negligible impact, if any, on their audience. All else equal, the small effects of political campaign advertising on public opinion seem to be an established and robust finding..

At the epicenter of public opinion creation on AI, the thoughts of actual AI experts are dismissed. (Btw. Silicon Valley largely agrees with the concerns, Chris Olah is a good representative) https://t.co/3sLUynJqVI #AI #PublicOpinion #SiliconValley #US

Amazing how people who don't know John McGuirk or Fatima Gunning personally, weren't privy to what happened, and effectively are totally in the dark on the entire episode, still have radically, emphatically and confidentially sided with whichever suits their political ideology. #PoliticalIdeology #PublicOpinion #BlindAllegiances

What Do Muslim Immigrants Think in the West?

The article discusses the growing political pressure in the U.S., UK, and Europe to reduce immigration in response to public concerns about welfare and job competition, cautioning that such policies could hinder economic growth, exacerbate budget deficits, and lead to higher taxes, particularly highlighting the UK's recent local election outcomes and the negative economic impacts of past immigration restrictions. #ImmigrationPolicy #EconomicImpact #PublicOpinion #UK #US #KR

Slashing immigration could lead to higher taxes

85% are against Merz. 87% are against black-red. Every single statement from the government only causes laughter among the citizens. This government is more than finished. Why exactly are there no new elections? (Original: 85% sind gegen Merz. 87% sind gegen Schwarz-Rot. Jede einzelne Aussage der Regierung sorgt nur noch für Gelächter bei den Bürgern. Diese Regierung ist mehr als fertig. Warum genau gibt es keine Neuwahlen?) #PoliticalCrisis #PublicOpinion #NoConfidence #DE

It is not possible to be at this level of detachment from the citizens to ignore what the majority thinks about this. - The president of the Judiciary criticizes the "pressures" on judges following the government's criticisms of Judge Peinado.

The Constitutional Court rejected the loss of nationality for foreigners who commit crimes of homicide, rape, or drug trafficking. This is completely unreasonable. The law should be reaffirmed in Parliament or a referendum should be called for the Portuguese to express their opinion. (Original: O Tribunal Constitucional chumbou a perda de nacionalidade para estrangeiros que cometam crimes de homicídio, violação ou tráfico de droga. Isto é totalmente irrazoável. A lei deve ser reconfirmada no Parlamento ou convocado um referendo para que os portugueses se pronunciem.) #NationalIdentity #LegalReform #PublicOpinion #PT
