Leicester staged a thrilling second-half comeback to defeat Sale Sharks, scoring four tries after the break to secure a crucial victory in the Premiership play-off race. Rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins, the Houston Texans' top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has earned attention not only for his standout collegiate performance but also for his admiration of franchise legend Andre Johnson, whom he named among his top five all-time receivers. Higgins, who brings size and strong hands to a loaded Texans receiving corps, recalled meeting Johnson as a child at the Miami-Dade Youth County Fair, cementing a lifelong admiration for the Hall of Famer who leads Houston in every major receiving category. Now poised to make his mark alongside star quarterback C.J. Stroud, Higgins aims to follow in the footsteps of his idol as he begins his NFL journey. UN Agency Collaborates with Trump Administration to Assist Migrants Choosing Voluntary Return
In a surprising turn of events, the Trump administration has partnered with the United Nations International Organization for Migration (IOM) to assist migrants in the U.S. who choose to return to their countries of origin voluntarily. The collaboration reflects a shift toward encouraging what the White House terms “self-deportation,” offering incentives such as a $1,000 cash payment and potential eligibility for legal reentry in the future. The IOM clarified its role, emphasizing it only becomes involved once individuals consent to leave and does not participate in enforcement or deportation. As part of the initiative, the administration has replaced the Biden-era “CBP One” app with the new “CBP Home” app, streamlining the process for voluntary departures. A national campaign led by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem further underscores the consequences of remaining in the U.S. illegally, warning of daily fines, imprisonment, and permanent bans for those who fail to comply. Over 1,000 migrants have already begun the departure process using the new platform. California lawmakers have reinstated felony charges for soliciting sex from minors, amending a controversial bill to impose harsher penalties on adults who target 16- and 17-year-olds. The Assembly Appropriations Committee unanimously advanced AB 379, which focuses on prosecuting individuals who attempt to buy sex from minors and establishes a support fund for trafficking victims. Under the updated legislation, adults at least three years older than their victims could now face felony charges, while solicitation by peers closer in age remains a misdemeanor. Despite earlier resistance and debate over potential overcriminalization, the bill has gained momentum, with Governor Gavin Newsom endorsing equal treatment for all who solicit minors. The proposal now heads to the full Assembly for a vote expected next week. President Donald Trump has received only 12 presentations of the President’s Daily Brief from intelligence officials since taking office in January, according to a report by Politico. Buccaneers Expected to Part Ways With $100 Million Pro Bowl Quarterback as uncertainty looms over Baker Mayfield’s future in Tampa Bay. Despite back-to-back 4,000-yard seasons and a career-high 41 touchdowns in 2024, Mayfield also led the NFL with 16 interceptions — a stat that could threaten his tenure if inconsistencies continue into 2025. With $50 million of his $100 million contract already guaranteed, the Buccaneers could cut ties without major financial repercussions. Tampa Bay has invested heavily in its offense around Mayfield, but if he falters, the team may look to the draft or free agency for a new direction at quarterback. A judge has scheduled a resentencing hearing for Erik and Lyle Menendez next week, following an evaluation that determined the brothers pose a "moderate risk" of committing violence if released.
