Emphasis mine.

Support for President Donald Trump's deportations has surged among Hispanic voters in the space of two months, according to a new poll.

The survey, conducted by polling firm Cygnal between July 1 and 2, revealed that the percentage of Hispanic voters that strongly support the deportation of people in the United States illegally rose by 11 percent between May and July 2025.

Now see, the first emphasis is not actually equivalent to the second. Therefore, the headline is false.

In the first sentence of the article, they link to another of their own articles from July 4th which proclaims "Donald Trump Gets Polling Boost From Hispanics" wherein they reveal "Trump's net approval rating among Hispanic voters stands at -30 points, with 32 percent approving and 62 percent disapproving. That is up from a net approval of -37 points in May, when 26 percent approved and 63 percent disapproved."

Sure, Trump is getting "boosted" by 4% more Hispanic voters deciding they like him at the same time 1% more Hispanic voters decided they dont.

Oh yeah, and then at the end of the linked article they shill for DHS' app and cash offer? WTF, Newsweek?

Newsweek is a notoriously populist-neofascist magazine, so I'm not surprised.
