Fox News: Migrant kids reportedly pulled from Massachusetts schools over deportation fears
In Massachusetts, many migrant parents are reportedly keeping their children home from school due to fears of ICE raids and deportation following President Trump's inauguration. School superintendents have noted increased absences among students, with some districts seeing significant spikes attributed to rumors of ICE activity.
Despite these fears, school officials emphasize that schools remain safe environments for children. Attendance data suggests that while there has been a slight overall decrease in attendance, it is difficult to determine how much is due to deportation fears versus other seasonal factors like illness or weather.

The Telegraph: Starmer is right to boost defence funds – but how will they be spent?
Calls for increased UK military spending have resurfaced, echoing Winston Churchill's warnings before WWII. While boosting defense budgets is straightforward, the real challenge lies in effective allocation and timely delivery of military resources, especially as Ukraine requires urgent support.
Concerns have been raised about the US's recent diplomatic stance, seen as siding with Russia and other adversaries, prompting calls for the UK to take a more proactive role in European defense initiatives. There is a growing belief that alliances should be based on shared interests rather than just values.
