SUMMARY: Federal agents conducted raids in Boston as part of President Trump’s mass deportation plan, targeting violent individuals such as gang members and murder suspects. The Trump administration reports 538 illegal immigrants were arrested in what it claims will be the largest deportation operation in history. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) focused on removing criminals, including MS-13 gang members, as part of a “worst first” approach. While the emphasis is currently on violent offenders, experts suggest that nonviolent criminals may eventually be targeted as well. Predictions indicate some individuals may choose to self-deport to avoid arrest.

Federal agents launched raids in one of the first visible signs of President Donald Trump’s mass deportation plan. The Trump administration says it arrested 538 illegal immigrants Thursday in what it says is the beginning of the largest deportation operation in history.

SUMMARY: Texas quarterback Arch Manning and coach Steve Sarkisian acknowledge the team’s underwhelming offensive performance in a 27-10 win over UTEP. Manning completed 11 of 25 passes for 114 yards with a touchdown and an interception, frustrating fans expecting a stronger showing at home. Despite a rough first half with 10 consecutive incompletions, Manning showed flashes of promise and scored twice on the ground. Sarkisian emphasized Manning’s mental struggle rather than physical injury and expressed confidence in his growth and consistency. Manning committed to improving fundamentals and handling in-game pressure ahead of tougher matchups, including their SEC opener against Florida on Oct. 4.
