Watch: United Firefighters of LA president Freddy Escobar is outraged with Mayor Karen Bass's decision to remove LAFD Fire Chief Kristin Crowley from her position.

Escobar sat down to speak with CBS News Los Angeles on Tuesday to discuss the firing, calling it ‘completely uncalled for’ while also taking issue with the mayor’s stated reasons for the dismissal.

 Thousands of Muslims across Metro Detroit are preparing for the start of Ramadan this weekend, a sacred month of fasting, prayer, and reflection.

In 2025, Ramadan is expected to begin on Friday, February 28, or Saturday, March 1, depending on moon sightings. The month-long observance will conclude with Eid al-Fitr on Sunday, March 30.

During Ramadan, Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, refraining from food, drink, and other physical needs during daylight hours. Each evening, they break their fast with iftar, a meal often shared with family and the community. Many mosques, including the Islamic Center of America and Masjid Dearborn, will hold nightly prayers, Quran recitations, and communal iftars.

Local businesses and restaurants will adjust their hours to accommodate the fasting schedule, and community organizations are planning food drives and outreach efforts to support those in need.

With Metro Detroit home to one of the largest Muslim populations in the U.S., Ramadan is widely observed across the region, bringing a time of spiritual renewal, unity, and charitable giving.

In case you're wondering why it's so hard to get the basics done in California, here's your answer:

"California lawmakers have filed 2,350 bills for the year.

Leaders of the Assembly and State Senate said they limited the amount of proposed state laws they could file to focus on affordability, but this year's bill load is still among the heaviest in the last decade in CA."

How does one on probation for a violent crime rack up several charges, two convictions and never see the inside of a prison cell?

Only one Nevada sheriff’s office is working with ICE on immigration enforcement.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office entered into agreements with Immigration and Customs Enforcement that will allow selected local officers to conduct immigration enforcement at the jail and “during their routine police duties.”

The Northern Nevada agency is one of 170 law enforcement agencies participating in the 287(g) program nationwide, but the only one in the state.
