SUMMARY: South Florida woman Madison Pastana is separated from her Venezuelan husband, Juan David, who was detained by ICE while heading to work. Juan, who legally entered the US with a pending green card application after applying for asylum, was arrested due to delays caused by a fraudulent “lawyer.” Madison is a US citizen and newly graduated surgeon, now facing an uncertain future. Juan is held at the Crumb Detention Center awaiting deportation. His attorney is requesting parole to allow him to stay with Madison while his case proceeds. ICE states Juan violated his admission terms and will be removed from the country.

SUMMARY: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis highlighted the state’s leadership in combating illegal immigration, emphasizing new reforms and collaboration with federal authorities.

Florida’s immigration czar Larry Keefe introduced the Law Enforcement Accountability Dashboard (LEAD), a public portal for reporting agencies not enforcing immigration laws. In six weeks, only eight complaints were filed, including some against Palm Beach, Orlando, Jupiter, and Broward law enforcement.

SUMMARY: On August 21, 2017, University of Alabama researchers conducted a groundbreaking study using multiple Doppler radars, mobile weather stations, and balloon soundings to observe meteorological and insect responses during a total solar eclipse. As totality caused ground temperature to drop 7–9°F and surface winds to slow, insects abruptly descended from 650–1,000 feet, likely disoriented by the loss of sunlight used for navigation. Radar data showed a 90% decline in insect reflectivity during darkness, with insects reascending once the sun returned. This first high-resolution eclipse experiment reveals how solar eclipses disrupt atmospheric and insect behavior, potentially affecting broader ecosystem dynamics.
