Dallas ICE office to remain closed Monday following shooting ... and more news

Published 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

The Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement office will remain closed Monday in the aftermath of last week’s shooting at the site. The closure means migrant check-ins will not take place, an ICE spokesperson confirmed Sunday. A new date for the check-ins has yet to be determined. In other news, Dallas-Fort Worth is in the midst of a data center boom driven by artificial intelligence ― and everybody’s talking about it. The spaces that house computer systems, servers, tech equipment and the infrastructure to support it all have existed for decades; Fair Park in South Dallas holds a history of segregation, exclusion and injustice. Its blighted past is continuously highlighted in efforts to rebuild the community into a prosperous neighborhood after land was taken and families displaced. The 139-year relationship between the State Fair of Texas and the largely Black community that surrounds it is complicated; and a second half shootout between the Cowboys and Green Bay Packers resulted in a 40-40 tie.
