MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexico has received non-Mexican deportees from the United States over the past week, President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Monday, reversing her previous opposition to doing so.
Sheinbaum said that Mexico had accepted over 4,000 deportees, of which a “large majority” were Mexican.
U.S. President Donald Trump took office last week, promising massive deportations of migrants who were in the U.S. illegally.

But in the days since, there has not yet been a “substantial” increase in deportees received by Mexico, Sheinbaum said.
The leftist leader had previously said that her administration had not agreed to the restart of the “Remain in Mexico” program by the Trump administration, which would send non-Mexican migrants back to Mexico while they awaited processing by the United States.
Sheinbaum said that deportations received from the U.S. had included people sent on four flights using civil aircraft. Reuters reported on Friday, citing a U.S. and Mexican official, that Mexico had refused a deportation flight operated by the U.S. military.
Such deportation flights have also caused an outcry from Brazil and Colombia in recent days.
Brazil accused the U.S. of “blatant disrespect” of deportees who were handcuffed on a flight, while Colombian President Gustavo Petro and Trump tussled on Sunday, nearly bringing the countries to the brink of a trade war over Petro’s refusal to accept U.S. military deportation flights. Petro later agreed to accept the flights.
According to Sheinbaum, who called the agreement between Trump and Petro “good,” the Mexican government and U.S. government were constantly in talks on immigration issues and other deals could be reached in coming days.
She said there was a precedent for Mexico receiving non-Mexican migrants from the U.S. Her predecessor, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, had agreed to the “Remain in Mexico” program during Trump’s first term.

In a recent development, Mexico has announced that it will be accepting non-Mexican deportees from the United States. This decision comes amidst increasing pressure on the US government to address the issue of deportations of non-Mexican nationals.
The Mexican government has stated that it will work with the US to facilitate the return of non-Mexican deportees to their home countries. This move is seen as a step towards addressing the humanitarian concerns raised by the deportation of individuals to countries where they may face persecution or violence.
This decision has been welcomed by human rights organizations and advocates who have been calling for more humane treatment of deportees. It is hoped that this move will lead to better coordination between the US and Mexico in managing deportations and ensuring that individuals are returned to their home countries safely.
Overall, this decision by Mexico to accept non-Mexican deportees from the United States is a positive development that reflects a more compassionate approach to immigration and deportation issues.
Jim Knowles, the reigning national champion defensive coordinator for the Ohio State Buckeyes and a target for the Sooners’ open DC position under Brent Venables, has reportedly accepted a job at Penn State.
Griffin Media’s Toby Rowland reports that Knowles, the former Oklahoma State defensive coordinator from 2018-2021, is staying in the Big Ten and going to Happy Valley with James Franklin.
“Reliable sources confirm that barring last second change of heart, Jim Knowles is headed to Penn State. He has notified James Franklin that he’ll accept their offer of well over $3 million to be highest paid coordinator in college football history. Knowles is from Philly.”
The Oklahoma Sooners may have to look elsewhere for a new defensive coordinator, as top target Jim Knowles has reportedly accepted a job at Penn State.
Knowles, who has been the defensive coordinator at Oklahoma State for the past three seasons, was widely considered the frontrunner for the Sooners’ vacant defensive coordinator position. However, it appears that Penn State was able to swoop in and secure his services.
This is a major blow for the Sooners, as Knowles is widely regarded as one of the top defensive minds in college football. His aggressive and innovative schemes have helped Oklahoma State become one of the top defensive units in the country.
It will be interesting to see who the Sooners turn to now in their search for a new defensive coordinator. They will have big shoes to fill after missing out on the opportunity to bring Knowles on board.

The movies worth standing in line for
An image from “The Stringer.”
(The Stringer)
“The Stringer” (The Ray Theatre, 7:30 p.m.)
In June 1972, after South Vietnamese planes dropped napalm on the town of Trảng Bàng, a photographer captured the image of grievously burned 9-year-old Phan Thi Kim Phuc fleeing the attack, completely nude, arms akimbo and wearing an expression of agony. “The Terror of War” — more colloquially known as “Napalm Girl” — swiftly became one of the most famous war photographs ever produced, fueling antiwar sentiment and earning a Pulitzer Prize for Nick Ut of the Associated Press. Except, Bao Nguyen’s engrossing investigative documentary alleges, it wasn’t Ut who snapped the picture.
Crisscrossing the globe from Arles, France, to Ho Chi Minh City to Southern California, Nguyen follows VII Foundation Chief Executive Gary Knight as he follows up on a former AP photo editor’s accusation that the image came from a Vietnamese stringer, whose work he says was falsely attributed to Ut. (After learning of “The Stringer’s” existence, the AP conducted its own six-month investigation into the image and released a 22-page report stating, “In the absence of new, convincing evidence to the contrary, the AP has no reason to believe anyone other than Ut took the photo.”) Whether the documentary presents enough “new, convincing evidence” to change the history (and future) of “The Terror of War” will be in the eye of the beholder, but it culminates in a forensic analysis of still images and video from that day in Trang Bang that left this viewer gobsmacked. — Matt Brennan

“Rabbit Trap” (Jan. 30 and Feb. 1, Library Center Theatre)
Folk horror isn’t supposed to make a lot of sense and writer-director Bryn Chainey’s feature debut, set in an unusually eventful Welsh forest, won’t disabuse you of that notion. But a mood is brewed — dank and laced with hints of fantasy — and if Peter Strickland and Alex Garland got to these ideas sooner, those guys are swell company to be in. A too-modern-feeling couple (Dev Patel and “Blue Jean” breakout Rosy McEwen) live in the mid-1970s in a cottage with more analog synth equipment than Pink Floyd’s attic. He records field sounds while she makes threatening experimental music. They smoke a lot of cigarettes, take a lot of baths and seem to be avoiding something. Then a nameless local 12-year-old arrives (the arresting Jade Croot), glomming onto their vibe, and the movie tips deliriously toward something pushy and tension-filled. The weirdness, beautifully designed and elliptical, is welcome. — Joshua Rothkopf
Movers and shakers from around the fest

No one represents the resilience of Los Angeles and its film community quite like Michelle Satter. Little more than a year after her son, Michael Latt, was shot and killed in his home, Satter’s family home was destroyed in the Palisades fire earlier this month — and yet the Sundance Institute founding director, honoree of this year’s Sundance Institute gala, found notes of hope, even humor, in her speech Friday.
“As some of you know, we recently lost our family home in the fire that burned down most of the Palisades,” a tearful Satter told attendees at the annual fundraiser, held at the Grand Hyatt Deer Valley. “It’s a deeply devastating time for us and so many others, a moment that calls for all of us coming together to support our bigger community. As a friend recently noted, and I have to listen to this, ‘Take a deep breath.’ Take a deep breath. We lost our village, but at the end of the day we are the village.”
On a night that also celebrated Sean Wang (“Didi”), Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie (“Sugarcane”), Cynthia Erivo (“Wicked”) and James Mangold (“A Complete Unknown”), it was Satter who inspired the loudest cheers and longest standing ovations, aided by stirring tributes from filmmaker Marielle Heller, actor Glenn Close and Sundance founder Robert Redford, who penned a letter in tribute to Satter — part of the Sundance family since its founding in 1981 — read by his daughter Amy.
In her remarks Satter also remembered her late son, joking that he didn’t like waking up early when he volunteered on the crew at the Sundance Lab and asking the audience to embrace the Sundance mission he grew up with.
“Let us take this moment to celebrate the collective impact that we can all have when we come together as an inclusive community,” she said. “[Michael] would want to say to all of you, ‘Leading with love, building community and fostering equity and cultural change through art and storytelling, it is our essential way forward.’ ”
In addition to the event’s support for the institute, organizers also encouraged donations to L.A. fire victims and first responders via the Entertainment Community Fund and the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation Emergency Wildfire Fund. —Matt Brennan
Where you’ll find us in Park City today

Ben Harper, who appeared in the documentary “It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley,” surprised the sold-out crowd after the film’s premiere at the Ray Theatre on Friday evening.
“If there ever is a college dissertation about how to turn a song into a hymn, Jeff Buckley and ‘Hallelujah’ is the intro,” Harper said before performing the song and participating in a short Q&A with director Amy Berg.
You never know who might show up in Park City — including plenty of musicians, unlike Harper, playing outside of the festival. If you need a break from screenings this weekend, Insomniac Events, which puts on the biggest EDM festivals in the U.S. (think Electric Daisy Carnival and Nocturnal Wonderland) is putting on the High Altitude series with top electronic artists, including Kaskade on Saturday and Dillon Francis on Sunday. (The Marquis Park City, 427 Main St., 9 p.m. Tickets required, 21 and older only.)
And if EDM is not your speed — or you remember the ‘80s hit “And We Danced” — Eric Bazilian, one of the founding members of the group behind it, the Hooters, will perform with fellow singer-songwriter James Bourne on Sunday (5:20 p.m.) and Monday (2:20 p.m.) at the ASCAP Music Café at Acura House of Energy, 550 Swede Alley. —Vanessa Franko

Michelle Satter, a prominent figure in the film industry and founding director of the Sundance Institute’s Feature Film Program, recently faced a devastating loss when her home was burned in the Palisades fire. Despite this tragedy, she showed incredible resilience and strength as she accepted an award at the Sundance Film Festival.
Satter, who has been a driving force behind the development of independent cinema for decades, was honored with the Vanguard Leadership Award at the festival. In her acceptance speech, she acknowledged the challenges she has faced in recent months but emphasized the importance of perseverance and community support.
“I am grateful for the outpouring of love and support I have received during this difficult time,” Satter said. “While losing my home was a heartbreaking experience, I am reminded of the resilience and strength that we can find within ourselves and within our communities.”
Satter’s dedication to supporting emerging filmmakers and nurturing artistic talent has made a lasting impact on the film industry. Despite the challenges she has faced, she continues to inspire others with her passion and commitment to storytelling.
As we celebrate Satter’s achievements and resilience, let us also remember the importance of coming together in times of need and supporting those who have faced adversity. Michelle Satter’s story is a powerful reminder of the strength that can be found in the face of tragedy.

Campbell said the next coordinators could be internal candidates already on staff or candidates outside of the organization. He said he’ll be looking for the right fit in Detroit.
“I think we’ve got guys on staff that I think are more than qualified and would be outstanding in those roles, but that does not mean that I’m not looking outside either,” Campbell said.
“So, I want what I believe is going to be as close to what we have been as possible, and we don’t lose what we’re about and our identity. We’re going to stay true to who we are, and if you’re somebody that doesn’t feel comfortable with that, then no, I don’t – this isn’t the job for you.
“I’m not going to be in a hurry, I’m not in a mad dash. No matter what happens I want to do what’s right by our team and what I believe is going to – those guys will be able to stand in front of that room and command respect and get everybody going in the same direction and will, ultimately, deliver the same message that I’m delivering.”
In an effort to promote diversity and inclusion at the highest level, the NFL awards compensatory draft picks to teams that lose minority coaches to head-coaching opportunities with other teams. With Glenn being hired as the new head coach of the Jets, the Lions will receive a third-round compensatory pick in 2025 and 2026. Detroit currently doesn’t have a third-round pick in this year’s draft after trading it to the Jets last year to move up to select tackle Giovanni Manu.
Former New Orleans Saints defensive backs coach Aaron Glenn has officially accepted the head coaching job with the New York Jets. Glenn, who has been a rising star in the coaching ranks, impressed the Jets with his leadership abilities and defensive expertise.
Glenn, a former NFL player himself, has been mentored by some of the best coaches in the league and has proven himself as a valuable asset to any team. His experience as a player gives him a unique perspective on coaching and developing players to reach their full potential.
The Jets are hoping that Glenn can bring a winning culture to the team and help turn around their struggling defense. With his passion for the game and proven track record of success, Glenn is sure to make a significant impact on the organization.
Fans are excited to see what Glenn can bring to the table as head coach and are hopeful that he can lead the Jets to success in the upcoming seasons. Congratulations to Aaron Glenn on this well-deserved opportunity!

After an extensive search, the Chicago Bears have announced that Ben Johnson has accepted the position of head coach for the team. Johnson, who previously served as the offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams, brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record of success to the Bears.
“We are thrilled to welcome Ben Johnson as our new head coach,” said Bears general manager Ryan Pace. “His innovative offensive schemes and strong leadership skills make him the perfect fit to lead our team to success.”
Johnson, known for his aggressive play-calling and ability to develop young talent, is eager to take on the challenge of leading the Bears to a championship. “I am honored to be chosen as the head coach of such a storied franchise,” said Johnson. “I am confident that with hard work and dedication, we can bring a championship back to Chicago.”
Fans are already buzzing with excitement over the hiring of Johnson, and are hopeful that he can bring a new era of success to the Bears. Stay tuned for updates as Johnson begins to make his mark on the team and the city of Chicago.
