![Twenty-five years have passed, but September 11 remains a day America will never forget.
On this day in 2001, 19 al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes. Two were flown into the World Trade Center towers in New York City, another struck the Pentagon in Virginia, and the fourth, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed in Pennsylvania after passengers and crew fought back. A total of 2,977 people were killed.
Today, families, survivors, first responders and communities across the country are marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11 with moments of silence, memorial ceremonies, readings of victims’ names and acts of service. At Ground Zero in New York, relatives gathered once again to honor the people they lost. Commemorations are also taking place at the Pentagon and the Flight 93 site in Pennsylvania.
This year's anniversary also recognizes a painful part of the tragedy that continued long after that morning. The New York ceremony added a moment of silence for people who later died from illnesses linked to exposure to toxic dust following the collapse of the Twin Towers.
For a generation that was not yet born or was too young to remember September 11, the anniversary is also a reminder of why these stories continue to be told.
Twenty-five years later, we remember the lives lost, the families who still carry that loss and the first responders who ran toward danger to help others. We will never forget.

![An ICE Air deportation flight landed in Cap-Haïtien after sunset on Thursday, returning 82 Haitian nationals. Among those on board, Haitian officials said, were two young boys: a 3-year-old U.S. citizen and a 6-year-old born in Brazil, both traveling with Haitian parents.
The plane, which originated in Alexandria, Louisiana, and made a stop at Opa-locka Executive Airport in South Florida, was hours behind schedule. Haitian authorities had prepared for a daytime arrival. Instead, the aircraft touched down after dark, long after government offices had closed and after deportees had already spent more than 13 hours in shackles, not counting flight time.
Office National de la Migration (ONM) staff who had been mobilized since morning stayed at the airport well into the night. Workers did not leave until after 2 a.m., according to accounts from the ground, because the late landing compressed screening, police checks, basic assistance, and transport into the early hours.
ONM Director General Jean Négot Bonheur Delva has previously said Haiti’s working hours for receiving returnees run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and that the latest practical window for an aircraft is early afternoon because processing alone takes two to three hours. A sunset arrival, he has warned, forces overtime, extra security, and staff who traveled from Port-au-Prince to miss return flights.
Thursday’s flight is part of a weekly cadence of removals that began after the Trump administration terminated Temporary Protected Status for Haitians and the U.S. Supreme Court allowed that decision to take effect. Flights that once arrived roughly once a month now land in Cap-Haïtien almost every Thursday, because Port-au-Prince’s international airport remains too dangerous for U.S. aircraft.
Returnees typically receive a small stipend from the Haitian government, far less than the cost of a ticket or a safe overland trip toward Port-au-Prince. Many have no family in the north. The highway south remains under gang control. Some stay stranded in Cap-Haïtien with little more than the clothes issued in U.S. detention.

![Tyler Perry’s long-awaited third chapter in the Why Did I Get Married? franchise is here. Why Did I Get Married Again? landed on Netflix on September 9, sending the original friend group to a lavish destination wedding on Italy’s Lake Como, and handing the next generation the keys to the same messy, familiar relationship questions their parents asked nearly two decades ago.
The story centers on Jasmine (Armani Greer), daughter of Marcus (Michael Jai White) and Angela (Tasha Smith), as she prepares to marry Wesley (Everett Osborne). The older couples including Tyler Perry as Terry, Sharon Leal as Dianne, Jill Scott as Sheila, Lamman Rucker as Troy, and Richard T. Jones as Mike reunite and quickly discover their grown children have inherited more than just their last names. Taraji P. Henson joins the series as Roselyn, Wesley’s mother. Janet Jackson’s Patricia is acknowledged but does not appear.
Among the new faces, Haitian-American actor Da’Vinchi plays Marcus Jr. Jasmine’s brother, Wesley’s best friend, and a character whose history with Regina (Sydney Winbush) adds extra heat to the wedding weekend. The role puts @Davinchi opposite Michael Jai White as his on-screen father.
The cast marked the release with a special Los Angeles screening on September 8 at Harmony Gold Preview House. Perry, Henson, White, Smith, Leal, Rucker, Jones, Greer, Osborne, Laya DeLeon Hayes, Jaden Michael, Derrick A. King, Sydney Winbush, and Da’Vinchi walked the carpet together first time many of the younger players had been seen as a group off-screen. Da’Vinchi kept it clean and understated in neutrals: brown slacks and a button-up.

![Naomi Osaka does not need anyone to like her clothes.
After her US Open run ended in a straight-sets loss to Elena Rybakina, a familiar wave of comments arrived: the outfits were too much, the walk-ons were a fashion show, she should just play tennis. Osaka answered the way she usually does, plainly, on her own platform, and without apology.
“You know… idgaf if you don’t like me,” she wrote. “I don’t mind being the first to do something and getting trashed for it. This happened when I talked about mental health and for some reason it’s happening with my clothes lol. I’m literally Haitian it’s in my blood to be this way, as long as the people after me have an easier path it’s worth it.”
Osaka, whose father Leonard François is from Jacmel, Haiti, and whose mother is Japanese, has spent 2026 treating Grand Slam walk-ons like a second language. At the Australian Open she arrived in a jellyfish-inspired look. At Roland Garros she layered gold sequins, trains, & jackets over her playing dress. At Wimbledon she walked out in a white kimono nodding to Kill Bill, then later wore a Haiti national team jersey after the country returned to the World Cup. In New York she paid tribute to Allen Iverson, hooded robe, newspaper clippings from her own career, cornrows, headband, then played in black basketball-style kit.
The comparison to 2021 is not throwaway. When she skipped press at the French Open and later withdrew, citing mental health, the reaction was swift and often cruel. She kept going. Years later the conversation around athletes and mental health is different because she and others refused to stay quiet. She is applying the same logic to what she wears.
Tennis still has an unspoken uniform, clean, traditional, not too loud. Osaka keeps breaking it in public. That bothers people who think the court should look a certain way. It also opens space for younger players who want to bring their whole self, culture, hair, history, humor, onto the biggest stages without waiting for permission.
She is not asking for everyone to get it. She does not do it for the people who will never understand. She does it for the ones who look like her.

![After a video of shackled deportees set to a Haitian song sparked fury across the community, Homeland Security’s official account is back, this time telling Haitian doctors and lawyers that $3,000 is “an entrepreneur’s dream.”
They heard the community. They saw the reaction. Then they posted again.
On Tuesday, the official Department of Homeland Security account addressed Haitian doctors, lawyers, scholars, and engineers by name and told them to “imagine what you could do with $3000 in Haiti.” It called the stipend “an entrepreneur’s dream,” linked the CBP Home self-deportation page, and quoted a New York Times headline about deportees arriving in Cap-Haïtien broke and stranded.
That is not a policy explainer. That is a punchline built on other people’s ruin. Less than two weeks earlier, the same agency posted a video of Black men in shackles and waist chains being walked onto a deportation flight. The footage was set to a Haitian song. On-screen text read: “Temporary Meant Temporary. Leave Now.” Community leaders called it reprehensible and dehumanizing. Pastors said they could not sleep. Families recognized the message immediately: this is how we will treat you, and we will film it.
Every time Haitians object, to the end of TPS, to weekly flights into a country the State Department still warns Americans not to visit, to children on those planes, to people landing with government sweatpants and almost no cash, the official account answers with another taunt. $2,600. Then $3,000. “Closing time.” “Leave now.” “Entrepreneur’s dream.” The more the community names the humiliation, the more the messaging leans into it.
That is the pattern. Not a one-off post. A strategy.
The Times reporting DHS chose to quote is not satire. Deportees have been arriving in Cap-Haïtien weekly. Some say valuables vanished in transit. Haitian authorities have been giving adults the equivalent of about $80. People who worked in hospitals, drove, taught, and paid taxes in the United States are marooned in a city many of them do not know, with no safe way home. DHS looked at that and wrote a joke about starting a business.

![Miss World 2026 closed September 5 in Nha Trang, Vietnam, with the Dominican Republic’s Joheirry Mola taking the crown.
Haiti left with something the scoreboard does not measure: a first from Jérémie, a purpose-driven project recognized on the world stage, and a month of representation that put Haitian women at the center of the conversation.
Marie Kemlyne Lestalie Félix, 25, is the first woman from Jérémie to hold the Miss World Haiti title. She did not advance into the official Top 40 on coronation night. What Miss World itself highlighted was her place among the six Beauty With a Purpose finalists for the Americas and Caribbean, alongside Belize, French Guiana, Guatemala, Paraguay, and Venezuela. Belize’s Faith Edgar won the continental BWAP title and used that fast-track into the Top 40. Félix’s work still stood in that regional final six.
Her project, Inspire-Toi d’Elles (“Inspire Yourself from Them”), founded in 2023, is built on a simple idea: Haitian women and girls need living examples, not slogans. Through monthly gatherings, mentoring conversations, writing workshops, and visibility for women already building careers and businesses, the initiative has brought more than 150 women and girls into the same room with mentors. The line she carried through the competition “Si elles l’ont fait, nous pouvons aussi” was the heart of her pitch. On the Head-to-Head stage in Vietnam she spoke plainly about being judged for her appearance, her skin, her origins, and limited resources, and about building the space she once needed as a girl from a communal section.
She used the month in Vietnam the way Miss World is meant to be used: fashion, culture, and community as one package. She walked the opening and Top Model events, including the Vietnam Beauty Fashion Fest, and carried Haitian identity into a competition that too often notices Haiti only when the headlines are about crisis.
A crown is one night. What she brought home is the work, the first for Jérémie, and a reminder that representation is already an accomplishment.

Through monthly gatherings, mentoring conversations, writing workshops, and visibility for women already building careers and businesses, the initiative has brought more than 150 women and girls into the same room with mentors. The line she carried through the competition “Si elles l’ont fait, nous pouvons aussi” was the heart of her pitch. On the Head-to-Head stage in Vietnam she spoke plainly about being judged for her appearance, her skin, her origins, and limited resources, and about building the space she once needed as a girl from a communal section.
She used the month in Vietnam the way Miss World is meant to be used: fashion, culture, and community as one package. She walked the opening and Top Model events, including the Vietnam Beauty Fashion Fest, and carried Haitian identity into a competition that too often notices Haiti only when the headlines are about crisis.
A crown is one night. What she brought home is the work, the first for Jérémie, and a reminder that representation is already an accomplishment.

![Authorities in the Turks and Caicos Islands intercepted an overcrowded vessel carrying 207 migrants, including Haitian nationals, early Monday, September 7, as it attempted to reach the British overseas territory. Officials said the passengers were brought ashore safely and transferred to immigration authorities for processing.
The operation followed another interception on September 2, when the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force stopped a vessel carrying 171 migrants near Northwest Point, Providenciales. Police said coastal radar detected the boat before it could make landfall. Marine Branch officers escorted the passengers to South Dock and handed them over to the Turks and Caicos Islands Border Force.
A third vessel was stopped near the Bahamas on September 3. The Royal Bahamas Defence Force reported finding 146 Haitian migrants 111 men, 30 women, two boys and three girls aboard a 45-foot boat about 17 miles northeast of Great Inagua. The passengers were taken to Matthew Town for processing. Together, the three operations account for 524 migrants intercepted in the region since September 2.
Turks and Caicos police had already reported approximately 1,075 migrants intercepted aboard eight vessels in 2026 before Monday’s operation. Authorities have not yet released a detailed breakdown of the 207 passengers or announced their next steps.
The latest intercepts come as Haitians continue attempting dangerous maritime crossings amid insecurity, economic hardship and limited opportunities at home. Regional forces have repeatedly warned that overloaded boats remain a serious risk to life at sea, even as they report that recent groups were brought ashore without reported casualties.

![Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said Friday that immigration agents have arrested 380 people in Springfield, the Ohio city that became a national symbol of the fight over Haitian Temporary Protected Status.
The figure comes from Mullin himself, speaking Sept. 4 during a visit with local law enforcement in Warren County. He said enforcement would continue and that ICE would keep using ankle monitors on people who lost TPS, describing the devices as a way to make sure they appear for court. “TPS is just that, it’s temporary. It was never designed to be permanent,” Mullin said.
City and local estimates put Springfield’s Haitian population at 10,000 to 15,000, a mix of TPS holders, U.S. citizens, and people with other status not a single legal category. Mayor Rob Rue has described those residents as neighbors, coworkers, taxpayers, and parents. Springfield was already a national target. In 2024, then-candidate Donald Trump claimed Haitian residents were eating pets. City officials said the claim was false. Bomb threats followed. The community never fully left the political spotlight.
Mullin has urged people to leave on their own, saying Haiti “needs you,” and has advertised a government stipend and return flight for self-deportation. Advocates say that offer collides with conditions on the ground. The State Department still lists Haiti at Level 4: Do Not Travel, citing kidnapping, crime, civil unrest, and limited health care.
The human cost of the enforcement push landed last week. Pierre Damas Bel, 20, a Springfield High School graduate who had just started classes at Wright State University, died Aug. 31 after walking into westbound traffic on Interstate 70 and being struck by a tanker truck. His family says he called that morning in distress over bullying tied to an ICE ankle monitor issued after TPS ended, a device that, they say, also blocked him from a soccer path and from receiving an ROTC uniform.
Mullin called the death “an unfortunate situation” and said Bel was not in ICE custody and that the agency was “not responsible.” ICE has said Bel entered the United States legally and was on an alternatives-to-detention program. #lunionsuite]()
![Naomi Osaka’s US Open Run Ends in the Fourth Round Against Elena Rybakina. The two-time champion’s bid for a fifth Grand Slam title falls short as she battles an Achilles injury against the No. 2 seed.
Naomi Osaka’s 2026 US Open came to a close on Monday, as No. 2 seed Elena Rybakina beat her in straight sets, 6-1, 6-4, in the fourth round at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Rybakina, the reigning Australian Open champion and a former Wimbledon winner, was the far sharper player throughout, jumping out to a commanding first set before holding off a slightly more competitive push from Osaka in the second.
For Osaka, the loss ends a tournament that had shown real signs of progress. She opened with a straight-sets win over Anastasia Zakharova, followed it with a comeback victory over Kateřina Siniaková, and then ground out a three-set battle against Belgium’s Elise Mertens, 6-3, 3-6, 7-5, to reach the fourth round. Throughout the back half of the tournament, she was also managing a nagging Achilles injury, which she acknowledged played a role in Monday’s defeat.
The result extends Osaka’s wait for a fifth major title. She hasn’t lifted a Grand Slam trophy since the 2021 Australian Open, before stepping away from the tour and giving birth to her daughter, Shai. Since her return, she’s put together encouraging results including a US Open semifinal and a Wimbledon quarterfinal but 2026 has been a season in which she has yet to advance past the quarterfinal stage of a major.
Speaking after the match, Osaka reflected on how motherhood has reshaped her perspective on the sport, framing the loss less as a crushing setback and more as part of a longer process. She said there was a lot of life packed into the years since her last title, and that the wait has felt both long and short as a result.
With the 2026 US Open behind her, attention now turns to how Osaka closes out the season and how she’ll build toward the 2027 majors, particularly whether the Achilles issue that flared up in New York needs meaningful recovery time before her next tournament.

Florida’s Board of Governors voted unanimously to bar students who are not lawfully present in the United States from enrolling in the state’s 12 public universities beginning with the 2027-28 academic year.
The regulation, approved without debate after earlier preliminary approval in June, applies to any university that did not admit all academically qualified applicants in the two most recent academic years. Because all 12 State University System campuses operate selective admissions, the rule effectively closes those institutions to new undocumented students. Currently enrolled students are not affected.
The university ban follows a June vote by the Florida Board of Education that already prohibited undocumented students from the state’s 28 public colleges and most adult education and GED programs. Together, the two policies shut undocumented students out of public higher education in Florida. The state now joins Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina in imposing such restrictions.
Legislative bills that would have achieved a similar result died in committee during the 2026 session. The boards then used their rulemaking authority to adopt the limits. Lt. Gov. Jay Collins called the university rule “common sense,” saying public universities are for students who are here legally and that taxpayers should not subsidize those who “broke our laws to come here.”
Critics, including United Faculty of Florida president Robert Cassanello, described the move as overreach that closes educational doors and limits the system’s ability to educate future workers. Exact current enrollment figures for undocumented students are not published, but earlier counts of out-of-state tuition waiver users put the number at roughly 2,000 at universities and more than 4,600 at state colleges in 2024-25. Broader estimates of undocumented students in Florida higher education have been far higher.
Private universities are not covered by the rule. Online students studying from outside the United States also remain eligible. The policy takes effect for new enrollments in fall 2027.

Twenty-five years have passed, but September 11 remains a day America will never forget.
On this day in 2001, 19 al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes. Two were flown into the World Trade Center towers in New York City, another struck the Pentagon in Virginia, and the fourth, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed in Pennsylvania after passengers and crew fought back. A total of 2,977 people were killed.
Today, families, survivors, first responders and communities across the country are marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11 with moments of silence, memorial ceremonies, readings of victims’ names and acts of service. At Ground Zero in New York, relatives gathered once again to honor the people they lost. Commemorations are also taking place at the Pentagon and the Flight 93 site in Pennsylvania.
This year's anniversary also recognizes a painful part of the tragedy that continued long after that morning. The New York ceremony added a moment of silence for people who later died from illnesses linked to exposure to toxic dust following the collapse of the Twin Towers.
For a generation that was not yet born or was too young to remember September 11, the anniversary is also a reminder of why these stories continue to be told.
Twenty-five years later, we remember the lives lost, the families who still carry that loss and the first responders who ran toward danger to help others. We will never forget.

An ICE Air deportation flight landed in Cap-Haïtien after sunset on Thursday, returning 82 Haitian nationals. Among those on board, Haitian officials said, were two young boys: a 3-year-old U.S. citizen and a 6-year-old born in Brazil, both traveling with Haitian parents.
The plane, which originated in Alexandria, Louisiana, and made a stop at Opa-locka Executive Airport in South Florida, was hours behind schedule. Haitian authorities had prepared for a daytime arrival. Instead, the aircraft touched down after dark, long after government offices had closed and after deportees had already spent more than 13 hours in shackles, not counting flight time.
Office National de la Migration (ONM) staff who had been mobilized since morning stayed at the airport well into the night. Workers did not leave until after 2 a.m., according to accounts from the ground, because the late landing compressed screening, police checks, basic assistance, and transport into the early hours.
ONM Director General Jean Négot Bonheur Delva has previously said Haiti’s working hours for receiving returnees run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and that the latest practical window for an aircraft is early afternoon because processing alone takes two to three hours. A sunset arrival, he has warned, forces overtime, extra security, and staff who traveled from Port-au-Prince to miss return flights.
Thursday’s flight is part of a weekly cadence of removals that began after the Trump administration terminated Temporary Protected Status for Haitians and the U.S. Supreme Court allowed that decision to take effect. Flights that once arrived roughly once a month now land in Cap-Haïtien almost every Thursday, because Port-au-Prince’s international airport remains too dangerous for U.S. aircraft.
Returnees typically receive a small stipend from the Haitian government, far less than the cost of a ticket or a safe overland trip toward Port-au-Prince. Many have no family in the north. The highway south remains under gang control. Some stay stranded in Cap-Haïtien with little more than the clothes issued in U.S. detention.

Tyler Perry’s long-awaited third chapter in the Why Did I Get Married? franchise is here. Why Did I Get Married Again? landed on Netflix on September 9, sending the original friend group to a lavish destination wedding on Italy’s Lake Como, and handing the next generation the keys to the same messy, familiar relationship questions their parents asked nearly two decades ago.
The story centers on Jasmine (Armani Greer), daughter of Marcus (Michael Jai White) and Angela (Tasha Smith), as she prepares to marry Wesley (Everett Osborne). The older couples including Tyler Perry as Terry, Sharon Leal as Dianne, Jill Scott as Sheila, Lamman Rucker as Troy, and Richard T. Jones as Mike reunite and quickly discover their grown children have inherited more than just their last names. Taraji P. Henson joins the series as Roselyn, Wesley’s mother. Janet Jackson’s Patricia is acknowledged but does not appear.
Among the new faces, Haitian-American actor Da’Vinchi plays Marcus Jr. Jasmine’s brother, Wesley’s best friend, and a character whose history with Regina (Sydney Winbush) adds extra heat to the wedding weekend. The role puts @Davinchi opposite Michael Jai White as his on-screen father.
The cast marked the release with a special Los Angeles screening on September 8 at Harmony Gold Preview House. Perry, Henson, White, Smith, Leal, Rucker, Jones, Greer, Osborne, Laya DeLeon Hayes, Jaden Michael, Derrick A. King, Sydney Winbush, and Da’Vinchi walked the carpet together first time many of the younger players had been seen as a group off-screen. Da’Vinchi kept it clean and understated in neutrals: brown slacks and a button-up.

Naomi Osaka does not need anyone to like her clothes.
After her US Open run ended in a straight-sets loss to Elena Rybakina, a familiar wave of comments arrived: the outfits were too much, the walk-ons were a fashion show, she should just play tennis. Osaka answered the way she usually does, plainly, on her own platform, and without apology.
“You know… idgaf if you don’t like me,” she wrote. “I don’t mind being the first to do something and getting trashed for it. This happened when I talked about mental health and for some reason it’s happening with my clothes lol. I’m literally Haitian it’s in my blood to be this way, as long as the people after me have an easier path it’s worth it.”
Osaka, whose father Leonard François is from Jacmel, Haiti, and whose mother is Japanese, has spent 2026 treating Grand Slam walk-ons like a second language. At the Australian Open she arrived in a jellyfish-inspired look. At Roland Garros she layered gold sequins, trains, & jackets over her playing dress. At Wimbledon she walked out in a white kimono nodding to Kill Bill, then later wore a Haiti national team jersey after the country returned to the World Cup. In New York she paid tribute to Allen Iverson, hooded robe, newspaper clippings from her own career, cornrows, headband, then played in black basketball-style kit.
The comparison to 2021 is not throwaway. When she skipped press at the French Open and later withdrew, citing mental health, the reaction was swift and often cruel. She kept going. Years later the conversation around athletes and mental health is different because she and others refused to stay quiet. She is applying the same logic to what she wears.
Tennis still has an unspoken uniform, clean, traditional, not too loud. Osaka keeps breaking it in public. That bothers people who think the court should look a certain way. It also opens space for younger players who want to bring their whole self, culture, hair, history, humor, onto the biggest stages without waiting for permission.
She is not asking for everyone to get it. She does not do it for the people who will never understand. She does it for the ones who look like her.

Soca king Machel Montano paused the party long enough to speak directly to Haitian fans.
In a clip circulating from a recent live show, the Trinidad and Tobago star is onstage in a Statue of Liberty tank, mic in hand, working the crowd under purple lights. Then he switches gears. He calls out Haiti, talks about love, and works through Kreyol as the audience rides with him.
The moment fits how Montano has been talking about the region this year. In interviews around his documentary Like Ah Boss: Journey of a Soca King and the Encore tour, he has argued that soca’s next chapter is Caribbean unity Haiti and Cuba included because the music already shares a pulse. Onstage, that idea becomes simpler: greet the people in the room.
Montano has spent four decades turning carnival stages into meeting places from Madison Square Garden as a child opener to Road March records and packed U.S. dates. This clip is short. What travels is the gesture: Haiti named, Creole attempted, love said out loud, and the show kept moving.

After a video of shackled deportees set to a Haitian song sparked fury across the community, Homeland Security’s official account is back, this time telling Haitian doctors and lawyers that $3,000 is “an entrepreneur’s dream.”
They heard the community. They saw the reaction. Then they posted again.
On Tuesday, the official Department of Homeland Security account addressed Haitian doctors, lawyers, scholars, and engineers by name and told them to “imagine what you could do with $3000 in Haiti.” It called the stipend “an entrepreneur’s dream,” linked the CBP Home self-deportation page, and quoted a New York Times headline about deportees arriving in Cap-Haïtien broke and stranded.
That is not a policy explainer. That is a punchline built on other people’s ruin. Less than two weeks earlier, the same agency posted a video of Black men in shackles and waist chains being walked onto a deportation flight. The footage was set to a Haitian song. On-screen text read: “Temporary Meant Temporary. Leave Now.” Community leaders called it reprehensible and dehumanizing. Pastors said they could not sleep. Families recognized the message immediately: this is how we will treat you, and we will film it.
Every time Haitians object, to the end of TPS, to weekly flights into a country the State Department still warns Americans not to visit, to children on those planes, to people landing with government sweatpants and almost no cash, the official account answers with another taunt. $2,600. Then $3,000. “Closing time.” “Leave now.” “Entrepreneur’s dream.” The more the community names the humiliation, the more the messaging leans into it.
That is the pattern. Not a one-off post. A strategy.
The Times reporting DHS chose to quote is not satire. Deportees have been arriving in Cap-Haïtien weekly. Some say valuables vanished in transit. Haitian authorities have been giving adults the equivalent of about $80. People who worked in hospitals, drove, taught, and paid taxes in the United States are marooned in a city many of them do not know, with no safe way home. DHS looked at that and wrote a joke about starting a business.

Miss World 2026 closed September 5 in Nha Trang, Vietnam, with the Dominican Republic’s Joheirry Mola taking the crown.
Haiti left with something the scoreboard does not measure: a first from Jérémie, a purpose-driven project recognized on the world stage, and a month of representation that put Haitian women at the center of the conversation.
Marie Kemlyne Lestalie Félix, 25, is the first woman from Jérémie to hold the Miss World Haiti title. She did not advance into the official Top 40 on coronation night. What Miss World itself highlighted was her place among the six Beauty With a Purpose finalists for the Americas and Caribbean, alongside Belize, French Guiana, Guatemala, Paraguay, and Venezuela. Belize’s Faith Edgar won the continental BWAP title and used that fast-track into the Top 40. Félix’s work still stood in that regional final six.
Her project, Inspire-Toi d’Elles (“Inspire Yourself from Them”), founded in 2023, is built on a simple idea: Haitian women and girls need living examples, not slogans. Through monthly gatherings, mentoring conversations, writing workshops, and visibility for women already building careers and businesses, the initiative has brought more than 150 women and girls into the same room with mentors. The line she carried through the competition “Si elles l’ont fait, nous pouvons aussi” was the heart of her pitch. On the Head-to-Head stage in Vietnam she spoke plainly about being judged for her appearance, her skin, her origins, and limited resources, and about building the space she once needed as a girl from a communal section.
She used the month in Vietnam the way Miss World is meant to be used: fashion, culture, and community as one package. She walked the opening and Top Model events, including the Vietnam Beauty Fashion Fest, and carried Haitian identity into a competition that too often notices Haiti only when the headlines are about crisis.
A crown is one night. What she brought home is the work, the first for Jérémie, and a reminder that representation is already an accomplishment.

He said enforcement would continue and that ICE would keep using ankle monitors on people who lost TPS, describing the devices as a way to make sure they appear for court. “TPS is just that, it’s temporary. It was never designed to be permanent,” Mullin said.
City and local estimates put Springfield’s Haitian population at 10,000 to 15,000, a mix of TPS holders, U.S. citizens, and people with other status not a single legal category. Mayor Rob Rue has described those residents as neighbors, coworkers, taxpayers, and parents. Springfield was already a national target. In 2024, then-candidate Donald Trump claimed Haitian residents were eating pets. City officials said the claim was false. Bomb threats followed. The community never fully left the political spotlight.
Mullin has urged people to leave on their own, saying Haiti “needs you,” and has advertised a government stipend and return flight for self-deportation. Advocates say that offer collides with conditions on the ground. The State Department still lists Haiti at Level 4: Do Not Travel, citing kidnapping, crime, civil unrest, and limited health care.
The human cost of the enforcement push landed last week. Pierre Damas Bel, 20, a Springfield High School graduate who had just started classes at Wright State University, died Aug. 31 after walking into westbound traffic on Interstate 70 and being struck by a tanker truck. His family says he called that morning in distress over bullying tied to an ICE ankle monitor issued after TPS ended, a device that, they say, also blocked him from a soccer path and from receiving an ROTC uniform.
Mullin called the death “an unfortunate situation” and said Bel was not in ICE custody and that the agency was “not responsible.” ICE has said Bel entered the United States legally and was on an alternatives-to-detention program. #lunionsuite

Naomi Osaka’s US Open Run Ends in the Fourth Round Against Elena Rybakina. The two-time champion’s bid for a fifth Grand Slam title falls short as she battles an Achilles injury against the No. 2 seed.
Naomi Osaka’s 2026 US Open came to a close on Monday, as No. 2 seed Elena Rybakina beat her in straight sets, 6-1, 6-4, in the fourth round at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Rybakina, the reigning Australian Open champion and a former Wimbledon winner, was the far sharper player throughout, jumping out to a commanding first set before holding off a slightly more competitive push from Osaka in the second.
For Osaka, the loss ends a tournament that had shown real signs of progress. She opened with a straight-sets win over Anastasia Zakharova, followed it with a comeback victory over Kateřina Siniaková, and then ground out a three-set battle against Belgium’s Elise Mertens, 6-3, 3-6, 7-5, to reach the fourth round. Throughout the back half of the tournament, she was also managing a nagging Achilles injury, which she acknowledged played a role in Monday’s defeat.
The result extends Osaka’s wait for a fifth major title. She hasn’t lifted a Grand Slam trophy since the 2021 Australian Open, before stepping away from the tour and giving birth to her daughter, Shai. Since her return, she’s put together encouraging results including a US Open semifinal and a Wimbledon quarterfinal but 2026 has been a season in which she has yet to advance past the quarterfinal stage of a major.
Speaking after the match, Osaka reflected on how motherhood has reshaped her perspective on the sport, framing the loss less as a crushing setback and more as part of a longer process. She said there was a lot of life packed into the years since her last title, and that the wait has felt both long and short as a result.
With the 2026 US Open behind her, attention now turns to how Osaka closes out the season and how she’ll build toward the 2027 majors, particularly whether the Achilles issue that flared up in New York needs meaningful recovery time before her next tournament.
