DALLAS, The chief of a small Texas town says border authorities are now finding stolen plates from his area being used in smuggling situations, including those taken from city council members.
The license plates come from Sabinal, Texas, and have been taken from local residents and city officials.
Human smugglers typically drive down to the southern border from Houston, Austin or Dallas or even out of state. So when law enforcement officials near the border see a vehicle with those plates, it can be a flag for them to run the license plate.
Local plates don’t raise the same concern because it isn’t the trend they are used to seeing, and often, those driving really are local residents and not smugglers who are trafficking immigrants who have entered the country illegally.
In the small town of Sabinal, several people have reported their license plates being stolen since April, with six cases of local vehicles that have had license plates stolen.
Police Chief Jesus “Chuy” Reyes said that might not be the full extent of the problem. Click here to read more.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – CNBC placed Florida as the top state in the nation for economy in 2024, the second straight year.
Following Florida was Texas, Tennessee, North Carolina and Arizona for ecomomy.
Gov. Ron DeSantis celebrated the news Thursday.
“In 2024, we reduced spending, cut taxes, raised teacher pay, paid down record amounts of state debt, generated a huge budget surplus, ranked #1 in education, allocated record funding for Everglades restoration, and accelerated road and highway projects,” DeSantis said.
Indeed, Florida spent less in fiscal year 2024 than 2023, and is running a surplus of around $17 billion. DeSantis also vetoed nearly $1 billion from the budget. Click here to read more.

PORT ORANGE, FLA - A Port Orange woman and eight others say COVID-19 vaccinations harmed them and have filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, seeking to break the immunity granted to vaccine makers.
Moms for America, an Ohio-based nonprofit, was joined by Michelle Utter of Port Orange and eight other individuals in suing the government in a case filed last week in the Middle District of Florida in Tampa. They argue a provision of a federal law protecting vaccine manufacturers from damage claims is unconstitutional and should be struck down.
“It took decades for the tobacco industry to be held accountable for injuring our loved ones and covering it up. It won’t take that long this time," said Kimberly Fletcher, founder and CEO of Moms For America. The far-right-leaning group saw its revenues soar in 2021, as it fought against mask mandates.

A trucker found a baby crawling in a ditch by an interstate highway after his brother was found dead and his mother was arrested, authorities in southwestern Louisiana said Tuesday.
Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office (CPSO) deputies responding to an emergency call around 9:00 a.m. regarding the discovery identified the one-year-old child as one of the two sons of Aaliyah N. Jack, 25, of Lake Charles, according to a CPSO press release. The baby was “in a ditch on I-10 eastbound near mile marker 10.” The baby had multiple insect bites, CPSO Sheriff Gary “Stitch” Guillory told reporters, according to The Associated Press (AP).
“We look at this one-year-old as our miracle baby, because he was still alive,” an emotional Guillory said, footage obtained by the outlet showed.
“Unbelievable. This kid spent two days out in the weather on the side of the highway. Thank God that trucker seen [sic] him. When we looked at the video, here he was crawling toward the highway,” Guillory added in the video. Click here to read more.

ROCHESTER, MN - A Minnesota school district is finally giving its students back the freedom to fail.
Rochester Public Schools implemented a “no credit” grading policy in 2020, in hopes of helping failing students who were struggling with virtual learning. Now, four years later, the district has overturned their policy to increase student accountability.
“Deciding that basic levels of effort were not necessary – because it wasn't going to show up in their GPA and they never got the very recognizable symbol of an ‘F’ – there was a subset of kids who were seeing that possibility as a reason not to meet some level of basic requirements,” Superintendent Kent Pekel said Monday.
