ICE says it arrested 10,000 "criminal illegal aliens" in MN but it has only released 240 names of immigrants arrested as of Jan. 19. Of those 240, 80% have felony convictions. Nearly all had served their time and were not actively wanted when they were detained, according to a Star Tribune analysis.

ICE says it has arrested 10,000 ‘criminal illegal aliens’ in Minnesota, but offers little proof
If accurate, that total would represent a substantial share of the state’s undocumented immigrants.

In case the algorithm hasn’t delivered this to you yet, Donald Trump wrote a truly insane message to the Norwegian, Prime Minister, and here it is. The entire Republican Party is still lockstep with this guy.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

I can’t watch this right now, but a fourth division is a niche that NISA would be perfect four. Assuming more competent leadership. The League for Clubs may also fit here.

USL talks a big game but seems destined to fail because it isn't substantively professional. Expanding too quickly, not vetting the financial stability of prospective teams, and forgetting that the players are professionals without which the league does not exist to revolutionize soccer in America

It's in USL's best interests to cave in here. The longer this continues, the more the public who may or may not have a strong opinion on USL look at the league as yet another house of cards in sports, like the USFL or NASL back in the day. Can't have growth without investment.

Wow. It’s almost like reading the same crap he wrote about soccer clubs. Sad thing is, he could have done the hard work to find investors to resurrect clubs that are dead. Instead, he picks a fight with the Cosmos and builds his brand using bad AI articles.

Three years after Joe Biden became the first president to formally commemorate Indigenous Peoples’ Day, more than a dozen states and many cities recognize some version of the day either alongside or instead of the federal holiday Columbus Day. Here is what to know.

I think both things can be true. The Panthers aren’t playing in 26 or 27 and a new market is. At the same time, it is hinted in the email that a new venue opportunity could see the Panthers return for 28. AlumniFi Field will open in spring of 27 (we all hope).

Michigan Panthers will not play in 2026. UFL leaves the door open to a return if a suitable venue (AlumniFi Field) comes available.

This Saturday will be the 103rd meeting of Eastern Mich and Central Mich. They first played in 1902, but THERE WAS DRAMA. Both schools were Normal schools (teacher training schools), but EMU claimed that Central played a professional football player, and that's why they won.
