Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

I still think Frank should get the season, unless we’re in relegation territory in January (very possible) or if he starts Bentancur again in 2025 (extremely likely)… #COYS

Oh goody, our £52 million summer signing, the only one that can do a cute pass, is on the bench again…I’m sure he can show what he’s about in his 15 minutes when we’re down 4-0 #COYS

"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.
Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.

News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

Nice to see a Democratic Senator speak directly about Trump administration criminality without couching it in careful consultant-speak or trying to force it into an economic frame.
But Hegseth won’t be fired for war crimes. He was appointed *because* he advocates war crimes.
It’s up to Congress.

Pete Hegseth is a war criminal and should be fired immediately.

BBC staff apparently aren't allowed to quote the line so I'll do it for them:
Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

The important bit about this story - in reality the only important bit because nothing here is new - is that it delivers to an audience previously unaware of it a truth about the BBC's relationship to power: craven. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...
