This is a film made with the best of intentions and it has some good insights into the loneliness and isolation of seeking asylum in the UK. But there are a few too many sentimental moments to properly work as social-realism, or anything close to convincing drama, which is disappointing given its creator, Don Ng, is a journalist-turned-director making his feature debut.
And we just clean out that whole thing I don't know, something has to happen, but it's literally a demolition site right now. Almost everything's demolished, and people are dying there, so I'd rather get involved with some of the Arab nations and build housing in a different location where I think they could maybe live in peace for a change.
My dad, who grew up poor and lost his father as a teenager, had cultivated a knack for stretching every penny he earned. Years before we moved to the U.S., he squirreled away what he could, which helped him get settled in Pennsylvania when a locally headquartered company offered him a job on an H-1 Visa. Several months after my dad settled in the U.S., my mom, my brother, who was just six months old, and I joined him.
I think it [the war] was a waste of time, because the benefits we got from it, the wartime camaraderie and everyone, almost everybody, mucked in [with] whatever they could do. Whatever [way] they could help somebody else they did. That wasn't just in the army. You don't get that now, no.
The discussion included several new initiatives that help both our nations move forward, the statement said. Palau welcomed U.S. commitments that deepen a long standing partnership and deliver concrete benefits for Palauan people in health care, security, pensions, disaster resilience, and labor. Together, Palau and the United States also reaffirmed a shared commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific that protects both nations' prosperity and security.
X Screenshot Britain's King Charles III enraged British conservatives and some MAGA adherents with his annual Christmas message, where he pleaded for compassion and reconciliation, and proclaimed that diversity is one of the UK's greatest strengths. Charles spoke from the 500-year-old Lady Chapel within Westminster Abbey in London, saying, he longed for resilience in the face of adversity, peace through forgiveness, simply getting to know our neighbors and, by showing respect to one another, creating new friendships.
On earth, there is no room for God if there is no room for the human person. To refuse one is to refuse the other, said the pope during the solemn service, attended by about 6,000 people inside the basilica. Leo, the first US-born pope, is celebrating his first Christmas after being elected in May by the world's cardinals to succeed the late Pope Francis.
When Willie Nelson performs in and around New York, he parks his bus in Weehawken, New Jersey. While the band sleeps at a hotel in midtown Manhattan, he stays on board, playing dominoes, napping. Nelson keeps musician's hours. For exercise, he does sit-ups, arm rolls, and leg lifts. He jogs in place. "I'm in pretty good shape, physically, for ninety-two," he told me recently. "Woke up again this morning, so that's good."
At such a young age, Khalilieh left home alone for the United States, carrying little more than determination and a limited grasp of English. The very little English I knew I learned from watching old Clint Eastwood cowboy movies, he said. Those films shaped his expectations of America, which were quickly challenged upon arrival. To my surprise, when I got to California, no one was wearing cowboy hats, he added.
On Monday, I published an article unpacking how anti-Semitism in America is a youth movement. Surveys from nonpartisan, conservative, and liberal sources have found that far from being the benighted bigotry of the old, anti-Jewish prejudice is growing in popularity among the young, which is why it has been on the rise in American politics and culture. "The research collectively suggests that America is becoming more anti-Semitic because its young people are becoming more anti-Semitic," I wrote.
They aren't part of the federal judiciary established by Article III of the Constitution such judges have life tenure, and even the Trump administration hasn't claimed it can fire them. Rather, immigration judges are essentially civil servant lawyers who work for the Department of Justice. They fall under the DOJ's Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). Their job is to decide cases involving asylum, deportation, removal and detention under the Immigration and Nationality Act.
Buoyed by immigration, the Spanish economy has enjoyed positive headline figures in recent years and will continue to lead the way in the bloc in 2026, but Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez admits the benefits aren't yet trickling down to locals. Immigration and services have spurred the Spanish economy to continent-leading headline figures, but even Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez admits that these macro gains are failing to trickle down and that the purchasing power of Spaniards "is still low".
For the last four years, the United States was ruled by politicians who fought only for insiders, illegal aliens, career criminals, corporate lobbyists, prisoners, terrorists, and above all foreign nations, which took advantage of us at levels never seen before. They flooded your cities and towns with illegal aliens. They decimated your hard earned savings. They indoctrinated your children with hate for America. Really, I mean, they just released a level of violent felons that we had never seen, to prey on the innocent.
The authors behind the report, Projections of Homeownership Rates and Household Growth by Tenure for 2025-2035, updated the research to reflect the possibility of relatively low population gains from international immigration over the next decade. The addendum comes as the immigrant population in the U.S. is decreasing. After peaking at 53.3 million in January, the immigrant population fell by 1.3 million by June, according to Pew Research data. Further deportations and restrictions on legal immigration have continued since, likely reducing the immigrant population further.
Full restrictions remain in place for 12 countries previously identified as "high risk." Driving the news: The Trump administration instituted full restrictions and entry limitations against Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan, and Syria, as well as people with travel documents issued by the Palestinian Authority. Trump expanded restrictions from partial to full against Laos and Sierra Leone. He also added partial restrictions and energy limitations on 15 additional countries: Angola, Antigua and Barbuda, Benin, Cote d'Ivoire, Dominica, Gabon, The Gambia, Malawi, Mauritania, Nigeria, Senegal, Tanzania, Tonga, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. The ban was lifted from Turkmenistan on non-immigrant visas but maintained for immigrants.
Pro wrestling legend Mick Foley has announced he is "parting ways" with WWE over the company's "close relationship with Donald Trump." In an Instagram statement, the Hall of Famer revealed he had been "concerned" about WWE's relationship with Trump for "several months" - particularly "in light of his administration's ongoing cruel and inhumane treatment of immigrants (and pretty much anyone who 'looks like an immigrant')." However, Trump's "incredibly cruel comments" following Rob Reiner's death were the "final straw."
When you have a great candidate who's focused on the issues of the people and solutions for the people, along with an organized party doing year-round organizing, consistently showing up in communities, with the resources to communicate to the electorate, it produces wins, says Nikki Fried, chair of the Florida Democratic Party. This is going to be a great example of not just what happens in South Florida, but what can happen across the state.
Moynihan argued certain cultures are not compatible with the United States. Which ones? Phillip pressed multiple times. Well, if we look at Europe, actually, there was a lawyer this week who argued that an Afghan immigrant who raped a woman shouldn't be charged or shouldn't have a penalty because his culture said that women weren't free and equal. We're seeing 77% of rapes in France are from migrants.
I would like them to say to the Democrats, you talk about affordability. Okay. What's your policy that's different than mine that's going to help the American people? And if you have it, why don't we work together in the Congress now and fix it? The problem is they have no answer. So they just throw out these words and they have mainstream media that goes along with it. The talking puppets.
Garcia has been thrust to the center of immigration debates since he was first deported to El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison in March. The administration has claimed Garcia has gang ties, something he's denied. Garcia was deported to the prison despite a 2019 order where he was denied asylum, but his removal was barred due to claims he feared for his and his family's lives due to gang threats.
You shouldn't have to pay any inheritance tax, as you've already been taxed on that money. When my grandad died, it was particularly sad because he was too young for my grandma to receive his pension. That's disgusting. Reform has sensible positions on immigration and inheritance tax, so I stand with Nigel Farage.
