Headlines for September 25, 2025; Where Are the Detainees? Hundreds of “Alligator Alcatraz” Prisoners Disappear from ICE Database; West African Asylum Seekers Sent Home Despite Risk of Torture, After Being Deported by U.S. to Ghana; Israel Killed 31 Journalists in Yemen in Deadliest Attack on Press in 16 Years; Italy, Spain Deploy Naval Ships After Drones Repeatedly Attack Gaza-Bound Flotilla

Today's Headlines: A gunman opened fire from a Dallas rooftop into an ICE detention center yesterday, killing one detainee, critically injuring two others, and then taking his own life. The FBI says they found a bullet at the scene marked “ANTI-ICE,” and are investigating the shooting as targeted ideological violence. Meanwhile, Trump's Justice Department is reportedly teeing up criminal charges against former FBI director James Comey (for allegedly lying to Congress in 2020) and pushing a shaky mortgage fraud case against New York AG Letitia James—after swapping out the U.S. attorney who refused to pursue it. Over in late-night drama, Jimmy Kimmel pulled 6 million viewers for his defiant return, which sent Trump into an all-caps meltdown online threatening ABC. FCC chair Brendan Carr, who helped push Kimmel's initial suspension, says he's not stopping there—hinting at targeting The View and even SNL next. Also, two GOP reps are pushing to mint $400,000 coins featuring Charlie Kirk's face (yes, real currency). On the Hill, Democrats flipped Raul Grijalva's Arizona seat with his daughter Adelita, giving them 218 votes—just enough to force a floor vote on releasing the Epstein files. That news came as an anonymous golden statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands briefly appeared on the National Mall before being quietly removed. And in Florida, records suggest that more than 1,200 men detained at the so-called “Alligator Alcatraz” ICE camp this summer have since gone missing from government databases, with officials giving only vague “call ICE” notes as explanations.

Dozens of law enforcement officers descended about 6:40 a.m. on the building in the 8100 block of North Stemmons Freeway in the Stemmons Corridor. Homeland Security officials confirmed three detainees were shot. One died at the scene, while the remaining two victims were hospitalized in critical condition. Their identities were not released. ICE said in a post on X that the detainees were shot while inside a transport van.

Other families are expected to join this first lawsuit that seeks to hold the Federal Aviation Administration, the Army, Fort Worth-based American Airlines and its regional partner, PSA Airlines, accountable for the deadliest U.S. plane crash since 2001. And the winning bid for a viral Southlake estate topped $14.2 million. Concierge Auctions announced Friday that a sale is pending for the 31,000-square-foot home at 1469 Sunshine Lane following a live auction at The Upper House in Hong Kong.

Send us a textSince 1967, Israel has imprisoned as many as one million Palestinians—men, women, and children. Many are “administrative detainees,” taken without charge or a fixed release date, and receiving little or no due process and no trial by jury. Original detention orders can be renewed repeatedly. Many remain imprisoned for years, subjected to mental and physical abuse and torture. Might these detainees, arrested for so-called “public security,” more appropriately be called captives, hostages, or abductees? Journalist Hind Shraydeh joined us to discuss these Israeli arrest practices, prison conditions, prisoner abuse, the impact on families and communities, and efforts to end the occupation and its unjust system of abduction and incarceration. Hind will also be a panelist on this topic for the Voices from the Holy Land Film Salon on 8/17 at 3PM. More info can be found at voicesfromtheholyland.org.

Without President Donald Trump, Democratic leaders would have to focus on the hellholes they've created in their own backyards. Sign thief ID'd as socialist who competes against women as a man. The housing crisis is so bad old people are being told to shack up. Detainees at Gator Gitmo complain of “elephant sized mosquitoes.” 

President Trump's mass deportation efforts have led to the arrests of tens of thousands of immigrants, some of whom end up at the Phelps County Jail in Rolla, Missouri. Now some local activists are trying to provide comfort and assistance to detainees stuck in an unfamiliar place.

To justify mass deportations, President Trump has invoked an old wartime law: the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.   The Alien Enemies Act was last used after America's entry into World War II. In response to the Axis countries' detainment of Americans who were deemed potential spies, the Roosevelt Administration came up with an elaborate plan: find and arrest Germans, Japanese and Italians living in Latin America and detain them in camps in the U.S.  The government would use them to exchange for American prisoners of war.Liked this story?
