Dozens gathered on February 8 in Minneapolis to remember U.S. citizens Renee Macklin Good and Alex Jeffrey Pretti, killed by ICE agents on January 7 and 24. The demonstration escalated as people stuck sex toys on fences, threw them at vehicles—including a supporter's car—and pelted each other, leading Hennepin County deputies to declare an unlawful assembly and arrest 42 to 54 individuals. Tensions trace back to ICE operations in the sanctuary city, including the brutal arrest of Alberto Castañeda Mondragón, who suffered severe head injuries that a judge later ruled unlawful. In response, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem ordered body cameras for Minneapolis ICE and CBP officers, sparking debate over transparency versus surveillance fears.

Key Takeaway

Protesters marked a grim anniversary by hurling dildos at cars and agents, turning a memorial into chaos outside a federal building.

On Monday, President Trump reposted the AI-generated image on Truth Social, showing him briefing figures like Ursula von der Leyen and Emmanuel Macron on a map claiming those territories for the U.S. It echoes his earlier January post amid talks of buying Greenland in 2019 and jabs at Canada as the 51st state during trade spats and recent tensions with Prime Minister Mark Carney. Canadians mocked it with quips about U.S. challenges elsewhere, while supporters hailed it as sharp trolling, sharing memes like calling Canada 'West Russia.' No official replies yet from Canada, Denmark, or Venezuela.

New £48m signing Jørgen Strand Larsen scored twice in 13 first-half minutes, rifling one in from Adam Wharton's pass and heading Jefferson Lerma's cross to put Palace 2-0 up. But winless-in-16 Burnley roared back: Hannibal Mejbri pulled one back in the 40th, Jaidon Anthony equalized four minutes later, and Lerma's own goal in stoppage time gave the Clarets a 3-2 halftime lead—the first such turnaround since 2009. Palace controlled the second half with 60% possession but couldn't score, as Burnley held firm to snag a vital win, climbing out of the drop zone while Palace dropped to 13th.

Key Takeaway

Crystal Palace fans dreamed of glory after Jørgen Strand Larsen's brace on home debut. Then Burnley unleashed a wild seven-minute spell to flip the game upside down.

Newcastle United beat Tottenham 2-1 on Tuesday, with Malick Thiaw scoring in first-half stoppage time and Jacob Ramsey netting the winner in the 68th minute from Gordon's cutback. Eddie Howe's decision to start Gordon centrally—leaving £124 million signings Yoane Wissa and Nick Woltemade on the bench—drew pre-match criticism over Gordon's lack of striker goals and poor record starting there, but it fueled a dominant first half with nine corners. Ramsey called his first Magpies goal 'pure emotion,' while Howe praised Gordon's pressing and pace for giving the team a fluid, aggressive edge amid their striker struggles.

Key Takeaway

Anthony Gordon lined up through the middle with no traditional striker, a gamble that had fans debating fiercely before kickoff. It paid off as Newcastle snapped their five-match winless run.

Brentford owner Matthew Benham's data-driven approach builds up inexperienced managers like Frank, who promoted the club in 2021 on tight budgets before leaving for Spurs in a £6.7m deal last June. Eight months later, on February 11, Tottenham fired him with the team in 16th place, five points from relegation. Meanwhile, set-piece coach Keith Andrews, with no prior senior experience, has Brentford in seventh after 25 games, chasing their best-ever finish under the same analytics model that scouts undervalued talent and sticks to a fixed philosophy.

Key Takeaway

Thomas Frank guided Brentford to Premier League stability before jumping to Tottenham—only to get the boot after eight tough months. A fan's video highlights how the Bees' system keeps thriving no matter who sits on the bench.

A viral clip from Manchester United's 2-1 defeat at West Ham on October 27, 2024, shows Dalot blazing over from a Bruno Fernandes through ball, a blunder that ramped up pressure leading to Ten Hag's sacking days later.

Now steady under interim boss Michael Carrick—with new signings Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha to sharpen finishing—United head to the London Stadium on a three-win streak, aiming to bury the memory.

Key Takeaway

Diogo Dalot's shank from six yards out in last year's West Ham loss feels like a ghost returning tonight. Fans joke it cost Erik ten Hag and Ruben Amorim their jobs.
