Thirty-one percent (31%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey for the week ending January 31.
Despite the post-government shutdown delay, President Trump can still expect a big audience for his State of the Union speech tomorrow night.
In a year where the Democratic party swore in the most diverse, most female class in history, most voters see that trend continuing all the way to the White House.
The job market and the manufacturing sector are booming, completely unaffected by the just concluded federal government shutdown. But Americans are still unhappy.
Americans have decidedly mixed views of star quarterback Tom Brady, but they expect him to lead the New England Patriots to victory in Sunday’s Super Bowl LIII.
To manifest his opposition to President Donald Trump's decision to pull all 2,000 U.S. troops out of Syria, and half of the 14,000 in Afghanistan, Gen. James Mattis went public and resigned as secretary of defense.
President Trump told The New York Times this week that he has given up on negotiating with Congress over funding for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, but voters tend to think he will build the wall anyway.
Turnout at Davos was lousy this year. President Trump, preoccupied by the government shutdown, was a no-show at last week's World Economic Forum there. So were British Prime Minister Theresa May (Brexit) and French President Emanuel Macron ("gilets jaunes"). Chinese President Xi Jinping, Davos' 2018 star, and Russian President Vladimir Putin weren't there either. Neither were some of the usual financial and media big names.

Redistricting in the U.S. House of Representatives is not a unified process as is the case for most national legislatures, but the result of the cumulative actions in the states that have more than one representative. Nevertheless, it is useful to look at the entire House to see how the decisions in the states combine to form a fair or biased playing field for the parties.
California Senator Kamala Harris has announced her intention to run for president, but voters aren’t paying the California Democrat much heed.
Voters don’t expect Congress to fund President Trump’s border wall and think another federal government shutdown is likely on the way.
Sunday is the Super Bowl.
I look forward to playing poker and watching. It's easy to do both because in a three-hour-plus NFL game there are just 11 minutes of actual football action.
Here we go again. If you think the manure-spreaders of sensationalism who masquerade as ethical practitioners of journalism learned anything from last week's MAGA-bashing Covington Catholic High School hoax, I have three words for you:
Most voters remain avid users of social media but say they’re not influenced by political posts on platforms like Twitter and Facebook. Those under 40 are far more likely than their elders to have their politics shaped by social media.
Fewer Americans now think it’s too easy to become a citizen of the United States, but then again, most are already citizens of this country.
Financial-strapped private colleges are closing around the country at an alarming rate, a recent report said. While most Americans still think a college degree is essential to finding employment, fewer adults these days see the value in a four-year institution.
