it tends to be reliable. but there is invariable a bit of tds nastiness which slips in, often in the last paragraph. often articles will make no sense. in an article today, a nyc employee was arrested by ice. he had been working for nyc for a year, starting years after becoming illegal. article stated that could have been legal under everify, but status could have changed while employed. he was illegal at time of employment. some sanctuary cities do not use everify - was this the case? when he filed application, he stated that legal and no criminal record. both were false and grounds for instant dismissal. also stated that may have applied for refugee states, but did he? he was arrested at an immigration appointment. why was he there? article left more questions than answers. just laziness. jan 25, 2026: the laziness is now totally partisan. sad that what was basically objective us now stoking trouble. one more news source that is bo longer worth following.

Good app but I wish it was 24 seven news channel instead of just a couple of hours a day so for now I’m only giving it to stars I wish there could be a 24 seven news channel that would make it five stars for me nothing but news
