In 2023, Labour Together—a think tank key to Keir Starmer's leadership shift—paid APCO Worldwide £30,000 to investigate reporters like Sunday Times' Gabriel Pogrund and Harry Yorke, Guardian's Henry Dyer, Paul Holden, and Matt Taibbi after stories on its £740,000 in unreported 2017-2020 donations. The firm labeled them 'significant persons of interest' and speculated their info came from an illegal hack, even submitting reports to the National Cyber Security Centre. Labour Together's then-director Josh Simons, now a minister, called it a probe into a suspected hack unrelated to UK journalists, but targeted reporters described the materials as a 'dodgy dossier' aimed at discrediting their work. Press freedom groups raised alarms over the tactics amid broader concerns about political pressure on scrutiny.

The Puerto Rican star played the second of three sold-out nights on February 14 at the venue, delivering hits like 'DtMF' amid pyrotechnics and unified sing-alongs from fans waving flags from across Latin America. These concerts sold out in minutes, a big step up from his 45,000-capacity show there three years ago, as part of his record-breaking DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS World Tour supporting the 2025 album. Fans hailed him as the 'new king of music' for drawing bigger single-night crowds than Michael Jackson's 1993 shows at the then-smaller stadium, though skeptics noted Jackson's three sold-out nights and massive regional totals, calling the claims overblown.

The Senate passed President Javier Milei's labor overhaul 42-30, easing hiring and firing rules, introducing flexible 'hour banks' for up to 12-hour daily shifts offset by time off, and allowing salaries partly in kind like food or lodging—all aimed at boosting formal jobs in a nation where nearly half the workforce is informal. Milei, in office since December 2023, calls it vital for recovery after hyperinflation, with child poverty dropping from 52.9% to 38.1% in 2024 per UNICEF data. Unions decry lost protections, protests in Buenos Aires injured 15 and led to arrests, but supporters say it ends rigid rules stifling growth; the bill now heads to the lower house.

The redshirt senior transfer from UT Arlington powered Baylor to a 15-2 win over New Mexico State on Opening Day at Baylor Ballpark in Waco, Texas, driving in all 12 of his RBIs with three grand slams.

No MLB player has ever hit three grand slams in one game, though the 2011 Yankees did it as a team. Armstrong brushed it off postgame, saying he wasn't trying to do it, but the performance gives Baylor a strong 1-0 start in the Big 12.
