What US adults think about Pope Leo XIV, according to a new AP-NORC poll
WASHINGTON — Just over a month after Pope Leo XIV became the first U.S.-born pontiff in the history of the Catholic Church, a new poll shows that American Catholics are feeling excited about their new religious leader. About two-thirds of American Catholics have a 'very' or 'somewhat' favorable view of Pope Leo, according to the new survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research , while about 3 in 10 don't know enough to have an opinion. Very few Catholics — less than 1 in 10 — view him unfavorably.

NWSL's Angel City wears T-shirts reading `Immigrant City Football Club'
Angel City, the National Women's Soccer League team based in Los Angeles, distributed T-shirts to fans on Saturday that proclaimed 'Immigrant City Football Club.' Members of the team and the coaching staff also wore the shirts before their game Saturday night against the North Carolina Courage in solidarity with immigrants in the city who have been targeted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. The back of the shirts said 'Los Angeles is for Everyone' in English and Spanish. The team said some 10,000 shirts were distributed. Protests over President Donald Trump's immigration policies broke out in Los Angeles a week ago. National Guard members and Marine troops have been sent into the city and dozens of similar protests have broken out nationwide. Last week Angel City issued a statement on social media addressing the protests. 'We are heartbroken by the fear and uncertainty many in our Los Angeles community are feeling right now,' it said. 'At Angel City, we believe in the power of belonging. We know that our city is stronger because of it's diversity and the people and families who shape it, love it and call it home.' The players' unions for the NWSL and the WNBA also expressed solidarity with families 'facing fear, hardship, and uncertainty tied to immigration.' 'We stand with all people seeking safety, dignity, and opportunity, no matter where they come from or where they hope to go,' the NWSLPA and WNBPA posted jointly. 'Every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. We know not every situation is simple. But offering compassion should never be up for debate.' ___ AP soccer:

Mexico Gold Cup soccer game in Los Angeles sees anti-ICE protesters demonstrate outside stadium
Photos and online footage showed protests outside the Gold Cup soccer game between Mexico and the Dominican Republic at SoFi Stadium on Saturday. One of the individuals who joined the protests criticized President Donald Trump in an interview with The Los Angeles Times. "I am a soccer fan but today we are not for soccer," Daniel Fuentes said in Spanish. "It is not fair what Donald Trump is doing, lifting up our working people saying they are criminals and it is not so. They are raging against us Latinos, saying we are the worst." The ongoing unrest over immigration enforcement in Southern California spilled onto the streets surrounding the stadium amid uncertainty over potential ICE raids impacting the game. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum urged U.S. immigration forces in Los Angeles to give grace to fans at the Mexico vs. Dominican Republic game. "We don't believe that at any soccer match there will be any [immigration] action ... we call for none to be taken by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement," Sheinbaum said in a Friday press conference. "Mexico will always promote peace," she added. Multiple fans at the game told the Los Angeles Times that the situation rocking Los Angeles culminated in a more somber-than-usual mood for the Mexico fans at the game. "When the Mexican team plays, it's a celebration, right? But no, it wasn't," a man nicknamed "El Coronel" told the outlet. "We don't feel right celebrating with music and food [when] our brothers and sisters and cousins and mothers are all suffering from what's happening."
