SpaceX Falcon 9 grounded after landing mishap
SUMMARY: SpaceX is grounded again by the FAA following the explosion of a Falcon 9 booster during landing on a drone ship after a Starlink launch. This incident is the second grounding in a month, jeopardizing upcoming crewed missions like the Polaris Dawn mission, which was canceled due to weather safety concerns. SpaceX had previously successfully reused the booster 23 times, but the explosion raises safety and operational concerns amid their busy schedule with multiple missions. Experts stress the need for more diversity in launch providers to mitigate industry risks, especially since NASA heavily relies on SpaceX for launches.
What was supposed to be a historic week for SpaceX ended in setbacks, after a Falcon 9 rocket booster burst into flames off the coast of Florida. All Falcon 9’s are now grounded after an anomaly overnight.

A new immigrant detention partnership nicknamed after Indiana’s iconic racetrack inspires backlash
SUMMARY: The Trump administration announced a new partnership with Indiana to expand immigrant detention by adding 1,000 beds at the Miami Correctional Facility, reviving the 287(g) program that deputizes local law enforcement for immigration enforcement. Touted as the “Speedway Slammer,” the initiative sparked backlash from the town of Speedway and IndyCar officials due to unauthorized use of local names and imagery. Indiana Governor Mike Braun supports aggressive immigration enforcement, emphasizing cooperation with federal authorities. The move aligns with Indiana’s broader role in Trump’s immigration agenda, including opening a new immigration court and plans to use Camp Atterbury to house detainees temporarily.

Camp Dolphins: Running back De’Von Achane responds to Tyreek Hill comments
SUMMARY: During Miami Dolphins camp, Tyreek Hill suggested removing running back De’Von Achane in short-yardage situations, favoring bigger backs instead. Achane, last season’s primary runner with nearly 1,500 all-purpose yards, confidently responded, emphasizing trust and teamwork, and promising improvement in short-yardage plays. Meanwhile, left tackle Patrick Paul was praised by teammate Jaylen Phillips for his physicality, skill, and relentless verbal jabs, making practice challenging yet admirable. Phillips remains healthy despite minor bruising. Safety Myles Fitzpatrick has been working on pass-rushing skills with edge rushers, showing dedication to improving. The camp also celebrated Zack Cer’s recent contract, highlighted by Tua Tagovailoa’s impressive touchdown pass to Nick Westbrook.
Miami Dolphins running back De’Von Achane responds to comments made by Tyreek Hill. Meanwhile, Jaelan Phillips appears to be OK after getting a little dinged up over the weekend.

Donalds, Jolly rack up endorsements in Gov race
SUMMARY: With over a year until Florida’s 2026 governor’s race, former GOP congressman turned Democrat David Jolly announced endorsements from 60 Democrats statewide, positioning himself as a changed, centrist candidate. On the Republican side, U.S. Congressman Byron Donalds, backed by Senator Rick Scott and former President Trump, leads but lacks Governor Ron DeSantis’s endorsement. Donalds hopes to gain DeSantis’s support, noting their political alignment. Speculation remains about a DeSantis ally, possibly First Lady Casey DeSantis, entering the race, who emphasized the qualifying period is still over a year away and stressed the need for a fighter to succeed DeSantis.
