SUMMARY: A Harris County family pulled their fifth grader, Hunter Hughes, out of North Point Intermediate School after he was allegedly bullied by a classmate. The bullying, which started early in the school year, included name-calling, theft of lunch, and a threat to Hunter’s life. Despite multiple reports to the school, the district denied any wrongdoing, citing insufficient evidence. Hunter’s father, Robert, criticized the school for not taking action and filed several unsuccessful appeals. Frustrated, he opted for online schooling, saying he no longer trusted the district to protect his son. The school district has not responded to requests for comment.

“It seemed like the school district was doing more of the bullying than the student,” the 5th grade student’s father, Robert Hughes, said.

SUMMARY: Kelvin Sampson’s impressive coaching career includes former player Mark Hendrickson, who not only played basketball but also spent a decade in Major League Baseball (MLB). Standing at 6’9″, Hendrickson praises Sampson for his straightforward approach and work ethic, recalling how Sampson’s support helped him succeed at Washington State. Hendrickson is notable for being one of the few athletes to excel in both the NBA and MLB, playing at least four seasons in each. He believes the specialized nature of modern sports may prevent future athletes like him from achieving similar dual success.

SUMMARY: A federal judge recently debated President Trump’s ruling that temporarily halted deportation flights for alleged migrant criminals, including alleged Tren de Aragua gang members. The administration argues for using the 200-year-old Alien Enemies Act for deportations. On Saturday, the judge blocked deportations under this law and ordered the government to redirect planes in transit. Trump criticized the judiciary’s authority, asserting that he deserves the power to expel undesirable migrants. GOP lawmakers are preparing legislation to limit judicial overreach. The case highlights tensions around executive authority, immigration policy, and judicial constraints amidst a crackdown on gang-related migrants in the U.S.
