The pope is in secularized, polarized Spain, where the Catholic Church has a complex legacy
Leo’s weeklong visit begins Saturday in Madrid, where upon landing he was greeted by the country’s Catholic monarchs, King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. His first day ends with a prayer vigil with young people, many of whom will be witnessing their first pope on Spanish soil.
The visit, the first by a pope in 15 years, signals Leo is returning pal attention to Europe and its Christian roots. Pope Francis largely stayed away from the traditional centers of European Christianity in favor of smaller Catholic communities farther away.
Leo acknowledged Saturday as he headed to Spain that he’s competing with another VIP in Madrid this weekend.
Puerto Rican sensation Bad Bunny is performing two shows of his 10-concert Spanish tour this weekend in the Spanish cital.
“When confronted with the question ‘Do I go see Bad Bunny or do I go to see the pope?’ I think many will go to see Bad Bunny,” Leo said. But he said he believed others would go to see him.
A first-ever pal speech to the Spanish Parliament
The highlight of Leo’s visit to Madrid will be his speech Monday to both chambers of the Spanish Parliament. Even though St. John Paul II visited Spain five times and Pope Benedict XVI three, no pope has ever addressed Las Cortes Generales, as the Parliament is known.
Such speeches are rare and often become one of the most important of a pontificate.
The pal visit will be hard to miss in Madrid. Leo’s face has been plastered across subway cars, billboards and ads in metro stations in the Spanish cital. On display at some souvenir shops are posters and magnets of Leo and other pal knick-knacks. Bakeries are selling limited edition pope cakes and pastries.
While much of Europe has secularized in recent decades, Spain stands out after it underwent a religious crisis following the 1975 death of Gen. Francisco Franco. A staunch Catholic, Franco viewed his reign as something of a religious crusade against the anticlerical anarchist, leftist and secular tendencies in Spain.
As Spain transitioned to a democracy, the percentage of Spaniards who declared themselves Catholics fell from 90% in the 1970s to just 55% in 2025, according to polling data collected by Spain’s state opinion agency. Of that group only 19% say they regularly attend Mass.
“The truth from a common view is not that God is in fashion. What is new in this moment, in this visit of the pope, is that God in the Spanish society is not a tattoo anymore,” he said.
A Mass at Sagrada Familia and migration message
After Madrid, the other highlights of the trip include Leo’s visit midweek to Barcelona, where he will celebrate Mass in the Sagrada Familia basilica on the centenary of the death of its famed architect, Antoni Gaudí. While Catalonia’s beloved native son is on the path to possible sainthood, no announcements on his canonization are expected during the trip, Bruni said.
During the June 10 Mass, Leo will inaugurate the soaring central spire of the basilica, the Tower of Jesus Christ, which when it was moved into place earlier this year made Sagrada Familia the tallest church in the world.
Leo will also fulfill a wish of Francis by ending his visit with a two-day stop in the Canary Islands, the Spanish archipelago that is closer to Africa than the Iberian peninsula and a key destination for migrants leaving West Africa.
Francis had made reaching out to migrants and refugees a hallmark of his pacy and Leo has followed suit by demanding dignified treatment of migrants, especially in his native United States.
“For those of us who are immigrants and find ourselves in this situation of having family far away, someone like the Pope — who is an important figure for the entire world — coming here is truly something that makes me say ‘wow,’” said Constantina Nchama, an immigrant from Equatorial Guinea in Madrid days before Leo’s visit.
“It’s something that hpens once in a lifetime,” she said. “I’m very, very excited about that, truly.”

A federal judge strikes down Trump administration immigration policy affecting 39 countries
BOSTON () — A federal judge on Friday struck down a Trump administration policy enacted after the shooting of two National Guard members that made it harder for immigrants from dozens of countries to stay and enter the U.S.
In a ruling harshly criticizing the administration, U.S. District Chief Judge John McConnell Jr. said the policy “threw the lives of countless immigrants living in the United States into indeterminate legal limbo,” and he accused the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services of ignoring the law.
“In enacting its latest immigration policies, USCIS: claims statutory and regulatory authority that it does not possess; makes decisions without the reasoned explanations that it must provide; acts without regard for the reliance interests of plicants that it must consider; and justifies its actions with pretextual concerns of ‘national security’ that mask anti-immigrant sentiments that it is forbidden from letting influence its decision-making,” he wrote. “In legal terms that means USCIS’s actions are contrary to law and arbitrary and cricious.”
A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The policies enacted after the National Guard shooting last year meant that immigrants from 39 African, Asian, Latin American, and Middle Eastern countries have been “categorically barred” from receiving final decisions on, among other things, their asylum, work permit, green card, and citizenship plications.
“This ruling reaffirms a basic principle: the federal government cannot shut down lawful immigration pathways or discriminate against people based on where they come from,” said Skye Perryman, president and CEO of Democracy Forward, which represented the plaintiffs in the case. “These unlawful policies caused enormous harm to families, workers, asylum-seekers, and communities across the country who were left in limbo, unable to work, access protections, or move forward with their lives.”
The policies ply to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services or USCIS, which proves plications for immigrants to work and become citizens. The agency, which is within the Homeland Security Department, often grants asylum, but only for those already in the United States when they ply. Immigration judges grant asylum to those stopped at the border; the ruling does not affect them, nor do the policies that sparked the lawsuit.
The broad ruling would impact all pending cases at USCIS involving people from the travel ban countries, not just those included in the lawsuit, Shev Dalal-Dheini, senior director of government relations at the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
“It is an important legal victory to ensure that legal immigration pathways remain open and that USCIS is held accountable to doing their congressionally mandated job of adjudicating plications,” she said.
In its motion to dismiss, which the court denied, the government argued that Congress gave the executive branch broad authority over immigration policy, including “the entry of aliens into the United States as well as discretion within the statutory scheme to confer as well as withdraw various discretionary benefits.”
“This case rests on a remarkable premise: that a federal court should prevent an agency from issuing the very policy guidance that provides government personnel with the guardrails necessary to ensure consistent, non-arbitrary, and individualized decisionmaking consistent with federal law,” the government wrote in its brief.
Immigration groups celebrated the ruling.
“This ruling sets a powerful precedent that the administration cannot ignore the law as laid down by Congress and cannot arbitrarily bar immigration benefits on the basis of national origin by fiat,” Jamal Abdi, president at the National Iranian American Council, said. “Fortunately, this is still a nation of laws, and those who uphold America’s values have recourse to challenge and push back on such discriminatory, arbitrary policies.”
Shawn VanDiver, a Navy veteran who heads a coalition that supports Afghan resettlement efforts called #AfghanEvac, said the ruling was a “significant victory for the rule of law and for thousands of Afghan allies and other immigrants who followed every requirement asked of them.”
“Just this week in Dallas and Fort Worth, we met people who feared losing jobs because delayed work permit renewals threatened their livelihoods, families who postponed education, travel, and homeownership because they did not know when their cases would be resolved, and future Americans who had expected to become citizens only to see their plications stall without explanation,” VanDiver said.

LAPD arrest girlfriends son in stabbing death of actor James Handy
James Handy, a character actor who peared in “Jumanji” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” was stabbed to death, and Los Angeles police arrested his girlfriend’s son in the killing.
Officers found the 81-year-old stabbed in the chest and unconscious outside his home Wednesday morning, the Los Angeles Police Department said. He was taken to the hospital and later pronounced dead.
Police had responded to the home after a 911 caller stated: “I am the son of man, I just killed the man of sin,” according to the department.
Michael Gledhill was arrested after he told officers he was the person they were looking for, the department said.
The 44-year-old, who lives at home with his mother, was booked on suspicion of one count of murder, according to police. His bail was set at $2 million, according to jail records.
It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney. Jail records did not show an attorney for him and messages left with the county public defender’s office were not immediately returned.
Born in New York, Handy peared in films and TV shows for decades.
He was known for his role as an exterminator in the 1995 film “Jumanji” and more recently as the bartender Jimmy in the 2022 film “Top Gun: Maverick,” according to IMDB. He’s also peared in some of the top TV crime dramas, including “NCIS: Los Angeles,” “The Closer” and “Cold Case.”
“I could not have asked for a more talented, humble or gracious client and friend than James Handy,” Pam Ellis-Evenas, from the Ellis Talent Group, said in an email to The Associated Press.

Luvme Hair Shares Summer Human Hair Wig Care Tips for Heat, Humidity, and Travel
NEW YORK, N.Y., June 5, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Luvme Hair, a beauty brand offering human hair wigs, glueless wigs, lace wigs, and protective styling solutions, is sharing summer human hair wig care tips to help customers maintain softness, freshness, and manageability during hot weather, humid conditions, outdoor activities, and travel.
Image ction: Luvme Hair Shares Summer Human Hair Wig Care Tips for Heat, Humidity, and Travel.
Summer can place extra stress on human hair wigs. Heat, sweat, sun exposure, humidity, sunscreen, styling products, wind, and travel storage can affect how a wig feels, moves, and holds its she. According to Luvme Hair, a summer care routine should focus on moisture balance, gentle cleansing, frizz control, careful detangling, and proper storage.
Human hair wigs can remain beautiful and natural-looking throughout the summer when customers adjust their care routine for the season, said a spokesperson for Luvme Hair. The goal is not to over-wash or over-style, but to keep the wig clean, hydrated, lightweight, and protected from unnecessary stress.
KEY SUMMER HUMAN HAIR WIG CARE TIPS
1. MAINTAIN MOISTURE WITHOUT USING HEAVY PRODUCTS
Human hair wigs may become dry in summer because of heat, sun exposure, wind, and repeated styling. Luvme Hair recommends using lightweight conditioning products that help maintain softness without weighing the hair down. Heavy oils or too much styling product can create buildup, especially in hot weather.
For summer care, customers can focus on lightweight leave-in care, moisturizing conditioner, and anti-frizz support as part of their human hair wig care products routine.
2. REFRESH WIGS MORE OFTEN DURING HOT WEATHER
Summer sweat, sunscreen, dust, and styling products can collect around the lace area, c interior, and hair fibers. Luvme Hair recommends refreshing wigs more often during summer, especially after long outdoor days or frequent wear.
A consistent wig care and maintenance routine can help reduce buildup, keep the wig fresher, and support a more comfortable wearing experience. However, customers should avoid excessive washing, which may dry out the hair. Instead, they should clean based on wear frequency, sweat, odor, and product buildup.
3. CONTROL FRIZZ CAUSED BY HUMIDITY
Humidity can make straight, wavy, and curly human hair wigs pear frizzy, puffy, or less defined. To help control frizz in human hair wigs, Luvme Hair suggests gentle detangling, light conditioning, and avoiding too much product layering.
For curly, body wave, deep wave, or water wave wigs, customers can refresh the pattern with a small amount of water-based leave-in product or curl-friendly styling product. The goal is to restore movement and definition without making the hair feel stiff or heavy.
4. DETANGLE GENTLY AFTER OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
Wind, heat, friction, and movement can make the ends and ne area more prone to tangling. Luvme Hair recommends detangling from the ends upward with a wide-tooth comb or wig-friendly brush. Customers should avoid pulling through knots aggressively, especially when the hair is wet or heavily tangled.
After outdoor activities, a few minutes of gentle detangling can help prevent small knots from becoming larger tangles.
5. PROTECT WIGS FROM EXCESSIVE HEAT AND SUN EXPOSURE
Human hair wigs can be styled with heat, but repeated high heat may contribute to dryness or dullness. During summer, Luvme Hair recommends limiting unnecessary heat styling and using heat-safe practices when hot tools are needed.
Customers who spend extended time outdoors should also avoid leaving wigs in direct sunlight, hot cars, or tightly packed bags for long periods. These conditions can affect softness, shine, and overall manageability.
6. CARE FOR WIGS AFTER BEACH, POOL, OR TRAVEL DAYS
Beach trips, pool days, and summer travel can expose wigs to salt air, chlorine, humidity, sweat, and packing pressure. Luvme Hair recommends extra attention to after beach or pool care, including gentle detangling, allowing the wig to air out, and cleansing when needed.
Before packing a wig, customers should make sure it is fully dry. Storing a damp wig in luggage can lead to odor, tangling, and a less fresh wearing experience.
7. PACK A SUMMER WIG CARE KIT
For vacations, weekend trips, outdoor events, and long travel days, Luvme Hair recommends preparing a small summer wig care kit. Useful items may include a wide-tooth comb, satin storage bag, lightweight leave-in conditioner, travel-size styling product, extra wig c, edge brush, and a compact mirror.
A simple kit helps customers manage frizz, refresh the hairline, reduce tangling, and keep the wig looking natural throughout summer plans.
HUMAN HAIR WIG CARE FOR SUMMER CONFIDENCE
Luvme Hair notes that summer wig care is about creating balance. Human hair wigs need enough moisture to stay soft, enough cleansing to stay fresh, and enough protection to maintain their natural-looking finish. With the right routine, customers can enjoy summer weather, travel, and outdoor occasions while keeping their wigs manageable and polished.
By sharing seasonal care guidance, Luvme Hair aims to help customers feel confident in their human hair wigs throughout heat, humidity, and travel.
ABOUT LUVME HAIR
Luvme Hair offers human hair wigs, glueless wigs, lace wigs, and protective styling solutions designed for natural-looking, confidence-boosting wear. With a focus on comfort, quality, and beginner-friendly design, Luvme Hair provides wig options for everyday styling, special occasions, travel, and seasonal beauty routines.

You Are Invited to Dinner: Three Years of Rebellion as Austin Tea Party Replaces the Runway with Living Theater
AUSTIN, Texas, June 5, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — This June the Austin Tea Party is executing a coup d’état on the traditional fashion runway, replacing static modeling with an immersive, five-stage theatrical experience that treats design as what it is, a living, breathing extension of being human.
Image ction: Austin Tea Party Co-Founders, Mel and Isa.
Dinner is taking over the East Side Performing Arts Center (ESPA) on June 20th and 21st, 2026; the production dismantles the sterile “living sketch” format of the fashion world. Instead, through an aggressive fusion of contemporary dance, character interaction, and a synchronized multi-course feast, the audience will witness fashion on full motion, as the designers imagined, fully lived-in, and transformative.
Inspired by the “Allegory of the Long Spoons,” and told through a fiercely contemporary, queer lens, the performance tracks a visceral arc of human connection, dragging the audience from the cold corners of isolation and scarcity into the chaotic warmth of collective abundance.
For this production, the fashion is the script. A massive network of over 70 local creatives, including designers, dancers, and actors, have treated the wardrobe as a kinetic narrative device. The clothing responds to, and punctuates, the gravity of the performance.
Audiences will see the clothing in conflict: how fabrics shift, and flow under the physical weight of contemporary movement and raw character friction.
The structural lines and textures of the local designs evolve across five distinct psychological stages, physically manifesting the journey from individual starvation to communal survival.
Pulling aesthetic notes from Alexander McQueen and Alice in Wonderland, the staging functions as a high-stakes arena where the line between the spectator and the performer is entirely erased.
“Traditional runways show you clothes as an idea,” says the creative team. “We are showing you fashion under the influence of life. It’s messy, it’s beautiful, and it’s moving.
