Bryce Young lanza récord de franquicia con 448 yardas y Panthers vencen 30-27 a Falcons
Por CHARLES ODUM
ATLANTA (AP) — Bryce Young lanzó para un récord personal y de la franquicia de 448 yardas y Ryan Fitzgerald pateó un gol de campo de 28 yardas en tiempo extra para liderar el domingo la victoria 30-27 de los Panthers de Carolina sobre los Falcons de Atlanta.
El pase de 54 yardas de Young a Tommy Tremble dejó todo listo para el gol de campo ganador de Carolina (6-5), que completó su barrida sobre su rival de la NFC Sur.
Los Falcons (3-7) sufrieron su quinta derrota consecutiva, incluidas dos derrotas seguidas en tiempo extra.
Young completó 31 de 45 pases con tres touchdowns. Lanzó un pase de touchdown de 12 yardas a Tetairoa McMillan con 1:08 restantes para darle a Carolina una ventaja de 27-24. Pero Zane Gonzalez pateó un gol de campo de 45 yardas para Atlanta con 16 segundos restantes para forzar el tiempo extra.
Bijan Robinson corrió para 104 yardas y dos touchdowns, pero los Falcons no pudieron superar la pérdida de Michael Penix Jr. por una lesión de rodilla en el tercer cuarto. El suplente Kirk Cousins no pudo mover la ofensiva en tiempo extra.
McMillan tuvo ocho recepciones para 130 yardas y dos touchdowns.

Acusan formalmente de conducta sexual inapropiada a exministro brasileño de derechos humanos
Por ELÉONORE HUGHES
RÍO DE JANEIRO (AP) — La policía federal de Brasil acusó formalmente a Silvio Almeida, exministro de derechos humanos del presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, de conducta sexual inapropiada luego que fuera despedido por las acusaciones el año pasado, informó un funcionario policial.
El funcionario habló el sábado bajo condición de anonimato porque no estaba autorizado para revelar información públicamente sobre el caso.
Los fiscales ahora decidirán si presentan cargos. Si lo hacen, la Corte Suprema los desestimará o los aceptará, en cuyo caso Almeida enfrentará un juicio.
Medios brasileños reportaron que la policía había acusado formalmente a Almeida el viernes. El exministro no ha comentado desde entonces, pero anteriormente ha negado las acusaciones.
Lula despidió a Almeida en septiembre pasado después que MeToo Brasil, una organización que defiende a las mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual, indicó que había recibido denuncias de conducta sexual inapropiada por parte del exministro.
Los medios publicaron que la ministra de Igualdad Racial, Anielle Franco, fue una de las presuntas víctimas, y posteriormente ella celebró la decisión de Lula.
Franco entró en la política tras el asesinato de su hermana Marielle Franco, una concejala en Río de Janeiro, cuya muerte en 2018 resonó en todo el mundo.
Las acusaciones fueron un golpe para el gobierno de Lula. Almeida, un profesor de Derecho para Población Negra, era uno de los funcionarios del gobierno de izquierda de Lula que más críticas lanzaba contra el racismo, junto con Franco.
Isabel Rodrigues, profesora en el estado de Sao Paulo, dijo el año pasado que Almeida la agredió sexualmente.
“Todavía hay un largo camino por recorrer antes que se haga justicia efectiva en este caso”, destacó el sábado en Instagram.
“Como víctima, tengo algo que decir: no suelten las manos de las mujeres”, agregó.
La violencia contra las mujeres es abundante en Brasil. Más de una de cada tres mujeres fue víctima de violencia sexual o de género a lo largo de un año, según un informe de 2025 del centro de estudios Foro Brasileño de Seguridad Pública, el número más alto desde que comenzaron los registros en 2017. Todas las formas de violencia contra las mujeres han aumentado desde entonces.

US aircraft carrier arrives in the Caribbean in major buildup near Venezuela
WASHINGTON — The nation’s most advanced aircraft carrier arrived in the Caribbean Sea on Sunday in a display of U.S. military power, raising questions about what the new influx of troops and weaponry could signal for the Trump administration’s intentions in South America as it conducts military strikes against vessels suspected of transporting drugs.
The arrival of the USS Gerald R. Ford and other warships, announced by the Navy in a statement, marks a major moment in what the administration insists is a counterdrug operation but has been seen as an escalating pressure tactic against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
The Ford rounds off the largest buildup of U.S. firepower in the region in generations. With its arrival, the “Operation Southern Spear” mission includes nearly a dozen Navy ships and about 12,000 sailors and Marines.
The carrier’s arrival came as the military announced its latest deadly strike on a small boat it claims was engaged in ferrying illegal drugs. The military’s Southern Command posted a video on X on Sunday showing the boat being blown up, an attack it said took place Saturday in international waters of the eastern Pacific Ocean and killed three men. A request for more information from the military was not immediately answered.
Since early September, such strikes by the U.S. in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific have now killed at least 83 people in 21 attacks.
The carrier strike group, which includes squadrons of fighter jets and guided-missile destroyers, transited the Anegada Passage near the British Virgin Islands on Sunday morning, the Navy said.
Rear Adm. Paul Lanzilotta, who commands the strike group, said it will bolster an already large force of American warships to “protect our nation’s security and prosperity against narco-terrorism in the Western Hemisphere.”
Adm. Alvin Holsey, the commander who oversees the Caribbean and Latin America, said in a statement that the American forces “stand ready to combat the transnational threats that seek to destabilize our region.”
Holsey, who will retire next month after just a year on the job, said the strike group’s deployment is “a critical step in reinforcing our resolve to protect the security of the Western Hemisphere and the safety of the American Homeland.”
In Trinidad and Tobago, which is only 7 miles from Venezuela at its closest point, government officials said troops have begun “training exercises” with the U.S. military that will run through much of the week.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Sean Sobers described the joint exercises as the second in less than a month and said they are aimed at tackling violent crime on the island nation, which has become a stopover point for drug shipments headed to Europe and North America. The prime minister has been a vocal supporter of the U.S. military strikes.
The exercises will include Marines from the 22nd Expeditionary Unit who have been stationed aboard the Navy ships that have been looming off Venezuela’s coast for months.
Venezuela’s government has described the training exercises as an act of aggression. It had no immediate comment Sunday on the arrival of the aircraft carrier.
Meanwhile, Army Secretary Dan Driscoll said Sunday that U.S. troops have been training in Panama, underscoring the administration’s increasing focus on Latin America.
“We’re reactivating our jungle school in Panama. We would be ready to act on whatever” Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth needed, he told CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
The administration has insisted that the buildup of American forces in the region is focused on stopping the flow of drugs into the U.S., but it has released no evidence to support its assertions that those killed in the boats were “narcoterrorists.” Trump has indicated military action would expand beyond strikes by sea, saying the U.S. would “stop the drugs coming in by land.”
The U.S. has long used aircraft carriers to pressure and deter aggression by other nations because their warplanes can strike targets deep inside another country. Some experts say the Ford is ill-suited to fighting cartels, but it could be an effective instrument of intimidation for Maduro in a push to get him to step down.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the United States does not recognize Maduro, who was widely accused of stealing last year’s election, as Venezuela’s legitimate leader. Rubio has called Venezuela’s government a “transshipment organization” that openly cooperates with those trafficking drugs.
Maduro, who faces charges of narcoterrorism in the U.S., has said the U.S. government is “fabricating” a war against him. On his Facebook page, Maduro wrote on Sunday that the “Venezuelan people are ready to defend their homeland against any criminal aggression.”
Venezuela’s government recently touted a “massive” mobilization of troops and civilians to defend against possible U.S. attacks. Maduro and other officials in Venezuela’s socialist party also have been attending rallies this weekend to back the creation of neighborhood committees that will be in charge of increasing membership in Venezuela’s socialist party, and promoting the party’s policies.
Trump has justified the attacks on drug boats by saying the U.S. is in “armed conflict” with drug cartels while claiming the boats are operated by foreign terrorist organizations.
He has faced pushback from leaders in the region, the U.N. human rights chief and U.S. lawmakers, including Republicans, who have pressed for more information on who is being targeted and the legal justification for the boat strikes.
Senate Republicans, however, recently voted to reject legislation that would have put a check on Trump’s ability to launch an attack against Venezuela without congressional authorization.
Experts disagree on whether or not American warplanes may be used to strike land targets inside Venezuela. Either way, the 100,000-ton warship is sending a message.
“This is the anchor of what it means to have U.S. military power once again in Latin America,” said Elizabeth Dickinson, the International Crisis Group’s senior analyst for the Andes region. “And it has raised a lot of anxieties in Venezuela but also throughout the region. I think everyone is watching this with sort of bated breath to see just how willing the U.S. is to really use military force.”
Associated Press writers Anselm Gibbs in Port of Spain, Trinidad, and Gabriela Molina in Caracas, Venezuela, contributed to this report.

Josh Allen logra tres pases y tres acarreos de anotación en victoria de Bills 44-32 sobre Buccaneers
Por JOHN WAWROW
ORCHARD PARK, Nueva York, EE.UU. (AP) — Josh Allen lanzó para tres touchdowns y corrió para tres más, el último en una férrea carrera de nueve yardas con 2:35 restantes que aseguró la victoria de los Bills de Buffalo por 44-32 sobre los Buccaneers de Tampa Bay el domingo.
El titular de octavo año y actual Jugador Más Valioso de la NFL se convirtió en el primer jugador con dos juegos de tres touchdowns por pase y por carrera. Lo hizo el año pasado en una derrota por 44-42 ante los Rams de Los Ángeles.
Esta vez, Allen superó a su compañero de selección de primera ronda del draft de 2018, Baker Mayfield, en un duelo que presentó nueve cambios de liderazgo en el marcador.
Los Bills dejaron en la banca al receptor Keon Coleman en un intento por revitalizar su juego aéreo, y cada uno de los tres pases de touchdown de Allen fue de 25 yardas o más. El corredor Ty Johnson anotó en una recepción de 52 yardas, Allen encontró a Tyrell Shavers abierto en profundidad para un touchdown de 43 yardas, y James Cook anotó en una recepción de 25.
Allen aportó la anotación que puso a su equipo por delante, una carrera de touchdown de cinco yardas con 9:06 restantes. Completó 19 de 30 pases para 317 yardas, y los Bills superaron sus dos intercepciones en la primera mitad.
Puntualizó su último acarreo de touchdown con un gran azotón de balón. Saliendo del bolsillo, Allen fue golpeado en la yarda cuatro y luego fue rodeado por los defensivos de los Bucs en la línea de la yarda dos, antes de que los linieros ofensivos de Buffalo lo empujaran a través de la línea de gol.
Buffalo (7-3) se recuperó de una derrota por 30-13 en Miami en la que Allen y la ofensiva no lograron avanzar el balón.
Tampa Bay (6-4) ha perdido dos seguidos y cuatro de siete.

Poderoso río atmosférico provoca al menos 6 muertos en California
LOS ÁNGELES (AP) — Un poderoso río atmosférico atravesó California tras causar al menos seis muertes e inundar gran parte del estado, pero las persistentes tormentas eléctricas provocaron el riesgo de deslizamientos de tierra en áreas del condado de Los Ángeles, recientemente devastadas por incendios forestales.
Las advertencias de inundación se mantenían vigentes hasta la tarde del domingo para los condados de Los Ángeles, Ventura y Santa Bárbara, donde aún era posible que se produjeran lluvias localizadas tras los fuertes aguaceros del viernes y el sábado.
“Debido a las abundantes lluvias de los últimos días, no se necesitará tanta lluvia para causar condiciones adicionales de inundaciones/deslizamientos de rocas”, indicó el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional en una actualización publicada el domingo.
Las autoridades seguían buscando el domingo a una niña de cinco años que fue arrastrada al océano el viernes por olas de 4,6 metros (15 pies) en una playa estatal del condado de Monterey. El padre de la niña, Yuji Hu, de 39 años, originario de Calgary, Alberta, murió mientras intentaba salvar a su hija, informaron autoridades policiales.
En el condado de Sutter, al norte de Sacramento, un hombre de 71 años murió el viernes después de que su vehículo fuera arrastrado de un puente inundado, informó la Patrulla de Caminos de California.
Frente a la costa de San Diego, un barco de madera que presuntamente transportaba migrantes hacia Estados Unidos desde México volcó en mares tormentosos, dejando al menos cuatro personas muertas y cuatro hospitalizadas, indicó la Guardia Costera el sábado.
La larga columna de humedad tropical que se formó sobre el océano Pacífico comenzó a empapar el Área de la Bahía de San Francisco el miércoles por la noche y desató lluvias generalizadas sobre el sur de California el viernes y el sábado. Más de 10 centímetros (4 pulgadas) de lluvia cayeron sobre la costa del condado de Santa Bárbara mientras la tormenta se acercaba a Los Ángeles. Partes de la Sierra Nevada recibieron más de 30 centímetros (un pie) de nieve.
El servicio meteorológico dijo que la lluvia dispersa podría continuar hasta el martes en la parte sur del estado. Se esperaba la llegada de otra tormenta el jueves.

Steelers vencen 34-12 a Bengals pero pierden a Rodgers por lesión en mano izquierda
Por WILL GRAVES
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Mason Rudolph guió un par de largas series de anotaciones en la segunda mitad después de reemplazar al lesionado Aaron Rodgers, y los Steelers de Pittsburgh superaron el domingo 34-12 a los Bengals de Cincinnati.
Rodgers, el jugador activo más veterano de la NFL con 41 años, se lesionó la mano izquierda durante una serie de Pittsburgh al final de la primera mitad. No esta claro exactamente cuándo se lesionó el cuatro veces MVP. Rodgers fue golpeado ilegalmente dos veces durante la serie, lo que resultó en penalizaciones por rudeza al pasador contra Cincinnati.
Mientras que los Steelers (6-4) inicialmente catalogaron el estado de Rodgers como “cuestionable”, no regresó a la banca para la segunda mitad.
Rudolph completó 12 de 16 pases para 127 yardas, incluyendo un pase de touchdown de cinco yardas al corredor Kenny Gainwell con 3:40 restantes que selló la anotación.
Joe Flacco completó 23 de 40 pases para 199 yardas con un touchdown y la intercepción de Dugger.
Dos de las peores defensas de la NFL se mantuvieron firmes durante gran parte de la tarde antes de que Pittsburgh finalmente abriera el marcador.
Pittsburgh estará en primer lugar cuando viaje a Chicago la próxima semana, aunque quién será el QB es un misterio por ahora.

US Debt Rose By $620 Billion During The Government Shutdown
US Debt Rose By $620 Billion During The Government Shutdown
By Eric Peters, CIO of One River Asset Management
“This package demonstrates that we can govern without surrendering to big spending or letting Democrats dictate priorities,” wrote the House Freedom Caucus in some talking points released to the media.
“We successfully stiff-armed a massive omnibus spending bill; locked in disciplined, flat spending levels; preserved President Trump’s policy priorities… and kept our leverage for the next round in January.”
People can say whatever they want, but I’m pretty sure our politicians closed the US government for a record 42 days and changed absolutely nothing. That’s quite an accomplishment. Sublime ineptitude. Congressional approval ratings supposedly declined 11pts to 15% during the period. Remarkable.
If a trader knew that 85% of his decisions were losers, he’d become the richest man on earth by simply doing the exact opposite of his instinct. I’m guessing Pelosi made good money trading the chop, but the broad equity market ended the shutdown period roughly a percent higher than where it started.
Extrapolating the recent pace of deficit spending, the Federal government accumulated another $600bln of debt during the shutdown, adding more leverage to the system, sustaining the economy, supporting asset values.
But even so, 10yr treasury yields are unchanged from where they were before the shutdown.
Crypto prices got smoked, with bitcoin down roughly 16% for no particularly good reason, even as gold rose 5%.
Liquidity trades often need momentum to sustain them, and the hot money has been chasing AI and gold.
Beijing added roughly 62 gigawatts of electrical generation capacity to China’s grid while Washington remained closed. That’s roughly the generation capacity of the entire UK, once the world’s greatest power.
80% of China’s new generation capacity is renewables, which means that once its built, it requires no coal, gas, or oil imports to power data centers. That’s quite a competitive advantage in this existential race toward AGI.
But at least we have our democracy, which we’ve been told is the worst system except for all the others.

US Installed Nearly 26 GW Of New Generating Capacity From January To August
US Installed Nearly 26 GW Of New Generating Capacity From January To August
By Meris Lutz of UtilityDive
Summary
The U.S. installed nearly 26 GW of new generation capacity between January and August 2025, up slightly from the approximately 23 GW installed over the same period last year, according to the most recent monthly infrastructure report from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
As it has for most of the past two years, solar continued to dominate new generation resources, accounting for 2.7 GW out of 4 GW brought online in August alone, and 19 GW — about three-quarters — of generation capacity additions this year.
The report also says FERC reissued a certificate for Williams Companies to construct and operate its Northeast Supply Enhancement Project. That expansion of the Transco gas pipeline from New Jersey to New York was revived following talks between President Donald Trump and Gov. Kathy Hochul in May after the Trump administration briefly froze the Empire Wind project. The White House and the developer of the wind project have told journalists the two sides reached a gas-for-wind deal, while Hochul has denied striking such a bargain.
Solar dominated capacity additions, according to FERC’s monthly report, while a controversial gas pipeline project from New Jersey to New York got a green light.
The report shows momentum for renewables continuing, despite the federal government’s emphasis on fossil fuels and nuclear. FERC lists 136 GW of “high probability additions” through August 2028, with renewables, led by solar and followed by wind, accounting for nearly 84%. Natural gas accounts for about 15% of high probability additions.
“Notwithstanding impediments created by the Trump Administration and the Republican-controlled Congress, solar and wind continue to add more generating capacity than fossil fuels and nuclear power,” the Sun Day Campaign’s executive director Ken Bossong said in a statement. “And FERC foresees renewable energy’s role expanding in the next three years while the shares provided by coal, oil, natural gas, and nuclear all contract.”
Large renewable projects that began operating in August include Hecate Energy’s 517-MW Outpost solar and storage project in Webb County, Texas; Gibson Solar’s 280-MW project in Gibson County, Indiana; and expansions at the Roadrunner Crossing Wind Farm in Eastland County, Texas, totaling 254 MW.
While solar and wind made up most of the new generation added in August, a number of smaller gas generators also came online that month, totaling 888 MW. They include: Southern Indiana Gas & Electric Co’s 248-MW A.B. Brown expansion project in Posey County, Indiana; Basin Electric Power Coop’s 245-MW Pioneer Generation Station expansion in Williams County, North Dakota; and Lower Colorado River Authority’s 188-MW Maxwell Peaker Plant in Caldwell County, Texas.

ICE & Border Patrol Begin Sweeping Deportation Raids On Criminal Illegals In Charlotte
ICE & Border Patrol Begin Sweeping Deportation Raids On Criminal Illegals In Charlotte
Federal officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) carried out large-scale raids across Charlotte on Saturday as part of President Trump’s push to deport criminal illegal aliens.
Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles, Mecklenburg County Board Chair Mark Jerrell, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg school board member Stephanie Sneed wrote in a statement that they will “protect the rights of all people who call Charlotte and Mecklenburg County home.”
What they really mean is to protect illegal aliens at all costs. Why? Because illegals are politically valuable, both as a future voting bloc and as a demographic booster for the next Census, which directly benefits the Democratic Party, now taken over by far-left DSA-ers.

City and county officials have criticized the enhanced federal immigration enforcement operations.
“The expected … operations are causing unnecessary fear and uncertainty in our community as recent operations in other cities have resulted in people without criminal records being detained and violent protests being the result of unwarranted actions,” read a Saturday statement prepared by Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles, Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners Chair Mark Jerrell, and Charlotte-Mecklenberg Education Board Chair Stephanie Sneed.
Lyles, Jerrell, and Sneed went on to state that the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department doesn’t assist with federal immigration enforcement operations.
Lastly, the city and county officials called on those considering protesting to remain peaceful.
“We do not want to see violence like many witnessed in other cities. We can stand up for what we believe in without resorting to violence,” the statement reads.
Let’s not forget unhinged Mayor Vi Lyles faced backlash after calling for “compassion” toward the violent madman accused of slaughtering Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on the city’s light rail.

Fun facts about the area: Approximately 58,000 illegals are living in Mecklenburg County, and an estimated 325,000 in North Carolina (data found here).
X user Cynical Publius has three suggestions for the White House that would end the nation-killing rule Democrats and their globalist allies have imposed, a sinister rule marked not only by an open-border invasion of tens of millions of illegals designed to disenfranchise native-born voters, but also by an invisible insurrection carried out through color-revolution-style operations against Trump and ‘America First’ via a dark web of nonprofits…

Nationwide voter ID with in-person, same-day voting except for true absentee situations.

Record Numbers Of Young Women Want To Leave The US
Record Numbers Of Young Women Want To Leave The US
By Benedict Vigers of Gallup,
For the second straight year, about one in five Americans say they would like to leave the U.S. and move permanently to another country if they could. This heightened desire to migrate is driven primarily by younger women.
In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014, when it was generally in line with other age and gender groups.
The percentage of younger women wanting to move to another country first rose decisively in 2016, the final year of President Barack Obama’s second term. That year, Gallup surveyed the U.S. in June and July, after both parties’ presumptive nominees were set for the November election, which Donald Trump went on to win. Desire to migrate continued to climb afterward, hitting 44% in President Joe Biden’s last year in office and remaining near that level in 2025. This suggests a broader shift in opinion among younger women, rather than a solely partisan one.
The sharp rise in younger women wanting to leave the U.S. has created a large gender gap between them and their male counterparts. Today’s 21-percentage-point gap between younger men (19%) and women (40%) wanting to leave the U.S. is the widest Gallup has recorded on this trend.
Since Gallup began measuring this question globally in 2007, few countries have shown gender gaps this wide in the desire to migrate. Before the U.S. in 2025, no country had recorded a gap of 20 points or more between younger men and women.
Gallup’s question asks about desire to migrate, so these findings reflect aspirations rather than intentions. Previous Gallup research shows not everyone who wants to move will move. Still, the data indicate that millions of younger American women are increasingly imagining their futures elsewhere.
While the desire to move for good is currently elevated among U.S. men as well as women under age 45, it remains relatively flat at low levels among their counterparts aged 45 and older.
What has not changed is where these younger women would like to go. Canada remains the top preferred destination for younger American women looking to leave, with 11% of those in the years since 2022 mentioning Canada as their top destination, ahead of New Zealand, Italy and Japan (all 5%).
Young Women in Other Advanced Economies Don’t Share the Desire to Move
The growing trend in younger women in the U.S. looking to leave their country is not evident in other advanced economies. Across 38 member countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the percentage of younger women who say they would like to migrate has held relatively steady for years, typically averaging between 20% and 30%.
For much of the late 2000s and early 2010s, younger U.S. women were less likely than their peers abroad to want to move. That changed around 2016. Since then, they have been more likely than younger women in other wealthy countries to say they would leave their homeland for good. By contrast, U.S. men aged 15 to 44 continue to be less likely than average to want to migrate compared with their peers in the OECD.
Politics Plays a Role Alongside Age and Gender
Rising interest in leaving the U.S. is shaped not only by age and gender but also by political attitudes. In 2025, there is a 25-point gap in the desire to migrate between Americans who approve and those who disapprove of the country’s leadership.
Desire to permanently leave the U.S. was not always such a politicized issue. Between 2008 and 2016, migration aspirations were similar regardless of views toward the country’s leadership. After Trump’s election, 2017 marked the first time this gap exceeded 10 points. During Trump’s first term, the difference in migration aspirations between those approving and disapproving of national leadership averaged 14 points. Under Biden, the gap narrowed to eight points, before climbing to 25 points in 2025, the first year of Trump’s second term in office.
Younger women’s much stronger orientation to the Democratic Party than other age and gender groups exhibit helps explain some of the differences in desire to move abroad. So far in 2025, 59% of women aged 18 to 44 identify as or lean Democratic, compared with 39% of younger men, 53% of older women and 37% of older men.
Desire to Migrate Rises Among Single and Married Women Alike
The people most likely to express a desire to migrate are typically those who have greater mobility, such as the unmarried, those without children at home and younger adults. However, among American women aged 18 to 44, the desire to migrate has risen regardless of marital status.
Between 2024 and 2025, at least two in five younger women — 41% of those who are married and 45% of those who are single — said they would like to move abroad permanently if given the chance. This is the narrowest gap by marital status among younger women in desire to move that Gallup has recorded since first asking the question, suggesting that younger married women increasingly do not view marriage as a barrier to migration.
The same pattern is true for having young children at home. Among younger women with children living at home, 40% say they would like to leave the U.S. for good, on par with the percentage among those without children (44%). Were these women to follow through on their desire to migrate, it is likely that they would take the next generation with them.
Younger Women Lose Faith in America’s Institutions
Across demographic groups, Americans with lower confidence in institutions such as the government, judicial system, military and integrity of elections are consistently more likely to express a desire to leave the country.
Over the past decade, younger women have not only shown the largest increase in wanting to move abroad but also have experienced the steepest drop in institutional confidence of any age or gender group.
In 2015, women aged 15 to 44 scored an average of 57 on Gallup’s National Institutions Index, which measures confidence in the national government, military, judiciary and honesty of elections.
Since then, younger women’s scores have fallen by 17 points — a sharper decline than seen for any other demographic — and dropped during both the Trump and Biden administrations. By comparison, women aged 45 and older and men aged 15 to 44 have remained broadly stable in their confidence in institutions, while the score among men aged 45 and older has increased by 15 points.
The Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, which overturned the constitutional right to abortion, may have contributed to the drop in younger women’s National Institutions Index score — particularly the steep decline in their confidence in the judicial system, which fell from 55% in 2015 to 32% in 2025, more than any other age group. However, when it comes to desire to migrate, the Dobbs decision alone may have played a more limited role, given that the trend in wanting to leave began years before the ruling.
Bottom Line
More Americans than at any time in the past two decades say they would like to move away from the U.S. permanently, with the sentiment becoming increasingly politicized since 2017. Younger American women’s desire to leave the U.S. has surged to unprecedented levels in recent years, widening the gender divide to more than 20 points, the widest recorded for any country in the World Poll.
Unlike their peers in other advanced economies, younger American women now stand apart from the rest of the U.S. in several respects. They increasingly lack faith in national institutions and picture their futures beyond America’s borders.
