Texas teacher Jason Buchanan doxed after inviting ICE to raid school over immigrant students
Buchanan, who worked at Northside High School, used his X (formerly Twitter) handle @HookEm232 to urge U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to target the school, claiming that many of its students 'don't even speak English.' His remarks quickly drew backlash, and Buchanan soon found himself doxed—his identity and personal details were shared widely online.
The controversy began on January 23, when Buchanan responded to a post from ICE celebrating the agency's recent arrests. In his comment, Buchanan suggested that ICE visit Northside High School in Fort Worth, writing, 'I have many students who don't even speak English and they are in 10th-11th grade.' He also mentioned that many of the students communicate with him through iPhone translators. His post immediately drew criticism, with many social media users condemning his comments as xenophobic and inappropriate for someone in an educational role.
Instead of retracting his statement, Buchanan continued to engage with his critics, calling them 'dumb' and further defending his position. He also made additional comments about the agricultural industry, arguing that U.S. farmers should stop hiring undocumented workers to lower labor costs. His combative responses only intensified the controversy and further fueled the backlash.

Many demanded that he be fired from his position as a teacher, with one commenter stating, 'This 'educator' should not be working for your school district LET ALONE any other school for that matter.'

In response to the uproar, Fort Worth Independent School District (ISD) launched an investigation into Buchanan's actions and removed him from his teaching duties. The district issued a statement reaffirming its commitment to diversity and inclusion, highlighting that Northside High School serves a large population of Hispanic students, with over one-third of the student body learning English as a second language.

Richard III may not have been a child killer after all
It is one of history's most intriguing "murders" – the mysterious disappearance over five centuries ago of two young princes from the Tower of London. Nearly 200 years after they disappeared, two small skeletons were found in a wooden box at the historic tower and reburied at Westminster Abbey. The remains were believed, but never proved, to be those of the two brothers – heir to the throne Edward, 12, and Richard, nine, the sons of King Edward IV of England, who were reputedly murdered at the behest of their uncle, Richard Duke of Gloucester. William Shakespeare later immortalised him in Richard III as a scheming hunchback who did away with his royal nephews so he could take the crown himself, sealing his reputation as a child killer. Now British author Philippa Langley, who helped unearth Richard's body from a central England carpark in 2012, has claimed that the princes – far from being killed – actually survived. The elder prince, Edward, was heir to the throne at the time of his disappearance and would have ruled as King Edward V of England. Langley decided to delve into the mystery after coming to believe that the conventional narrative in which Richard had the young princes killed smacked of "history being written by the victors". She was finally spurred into action after reading an article about Richard's reburial at Leicester Cathedral in 2015 which questioned whether the nation should honour a "child killer". "I think I'd always realised that the story sort of developed during the reign of the Tudors," she said, adding that it was then "repeated and repeated over time" until it became "truth and fact". The last English king to die in battle, Richard ruled from 1483 until his brutal death at the Battle of Bosworth near Leicester in 1485, aged 32. Bosworth was the last major conflict in the Wars of the Roses and changed the course of English history because the Tudor dynasty of Henry VII captured the crown from Richard's Plantagenets. Langley attributes the accepted story that Richard had the boys murdered to King Henry VII, a "very, very intelligent individual, but suspicious and highly paranoid". Tudor mud "He had a massive spy network working for him. And he was able to completely control the narrative," she said, adding that Richard ended up "covered in Tudor mud". Taking a cold case review approach to the historical "whodunnit", Langley says she assembled a group of investigative specialists, including police and lawyers, to advise her. "They said: 'Look, if you haven't got any confirmed, identified bodies, then it has to be a missing persons investigation and you have to follow that methodology'. "They said: 'You have to actively look for evidence'. That's when it really started to get interesting." Langley put out an appeal for volunteers to scour archives, only to be inundated with offers of help from people ranging from ordinary citizens to medieval historians. The result was the decade-long Missing Princes Project which she says unearthed a significant amount of information pointing to the survival of both young princes. Langley now believes that it is up to Richard's detractors to disprove the survival thesis, which she outlines in the new book The Princes in the Tower: Solving History's Greatest Cold Case. "The onus is now on them to find the evidence that the boys died. They cannot say Richard III murdered the princes in the tower any more because we found numerous proofs of life everywhere," she said. Key to Langley's conviction that both boys survived are documents discovered supporting a rebellion by "Edward IV's son". During the rebellion in 1487, Lambert Simnel, a pretender to the throne who came forward after Richard's death, was crowned in Dublin. According to fresh references found by the project, the boy was "called" or said to be "a son of King Edward", which she believes points to Simnel being the elder prince, son of Edward IV.

Anti-migrant protests turn violent in UK
The protest took place outside a southeast England hotel believed to house asylum seekers. Photo AFP Police promised Friday to track down suspects behind violence at a protest outside a southeast England hotel believed to house asylum seekers, after officers and vehicles were attacked. The violence followed several demonstrations in recent days in the town of Epping which flared after police charged an asylum seeker with sex offences. Eight police officers were injured and three vehicles were damaged, Essex police said. The unrest, which police blamed on people from "outside of our community", comes a year after anti-immigration riots rocked the UK in the wake of the fatal stabbings of three young girls in the northern town of Southport. Then, rioters targeted hotels housing asylum seekers in several different English cities, infamously attempting to set fire to one in Rotherham, northeast England. Essex police on Friday insisted officers would "continue to support those communities that want to peacefully protest" but would not tolerate "acts of violence and vandalism". "After last night I've got a team of specialist detectives today that are combing through the body-worn video CCTV to identify those who are responsible," Assistant Chief Constable Stuart Hooper told AFP. "And what I can say is if you're one of those individuals you can expect a knock on the door." Hooper said the "selfish individuals" behind the violence were mostly "from outside of the area" and had travelled to Epping "intent on causing criminality". Right-wing agitators, including far-right activist Tommy Robinson, have been sharing posts and videos about the situation on social media. Footage of Thursday's protests showed masked people pelting police vans and jumping on them, as well as clashing with officers. The disturbances came after police charged 38-year-old asylum seeker Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu with three counts of sexual assault, one count of inciting a girl to engage in sexual activity and one count of harassment without violence. The charges stem from allegations he tried to kiss a 14-year-old girl as she ate pizza at a restaurant in Epping, just northest of London, on July 7 and again the following day.
