Farmworker dies after fall from greenhouse during California ICE raid

A Mexican farmworker who reportedly fell from a greenhouse while trying to hide during a Trump administration raid on a Southern California farm has died from his injuries, the United Farm Workers union announced Friday. Federal authorities including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, many clad in military-style gear, stormed farms in Santa Barbara and Ventura counties on Thursday to execute search warrants for undocumented people. At Glass House Farms in Camarillo""which grows state-legal cannabis as well as tomatoes and cucumbers""the invading agents were met with spirited resistance from hundreds of community members who rushed to the site in support of targeted workers. Federal officers responded by firing tear gas and less-lethal projectiles at crowds of protesters who were blocking area roadways in a bid to prevent arrests.

'Potential embarrassment': Trump's UK visit 'deliberately timed' to not offer him a speech

In mid-September, U.S. President Donald Trump will be visiting the UK and meeting with British officials. But one thing he won't be doing on his trip, according to Telegraph reporters Ben Riley-Smith and Hannah Furness, is addressing Parliament. "The date of the U.S. president's trip is being deliberately timed for mid-September when there is a parliamentary recess, handing the UK an excuse for not offering the speech," Riley-Smith and Furness explain in an article published on July 11. "Mr. Trump is also expected not to visit Buckingham Palace or enjoy a ceremonial carriage ride down the Mall in London -- features of many past state visits from world leaders."
