South Korea’s foreign minister is en route to the U.S. to finalize steps for the return home of several hundred workers detained in a massive immigration raid in Georgia. The arrests at a Hyundai battery plant have caused confusion, shock and a sense of betrayal among many people in the key U.S. ally. South Korea announced that the U.S. has agreed to release the detained workers and that it would bring them home on a charter flight. South Korean analysts say problems in U.S. visa and immigration systems are colliding with President Donald Trump's goal of having foreign companies finance a U.S. manufacturing renaissance.

Protesters took to the streets of Chicago, New York, San Francisco and Washington D.C. on Labor Day to criticize President Donald Trump and demand a living wage for workers. Chants of “Trump must go now!” echoed in the streets outside the president’s former home in New York, while protesters gathered outside a different Trump Tower in Chicago yelling “No National Guard” and “Hey hey, ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go!” And in Washington, a large crowd gathered with signs saying “Stop the ICE invasion” and an umbrella painted with “Free D.C. No masked thugs.”
