The internet is full of questionable content – if you spend any time on social media, you probably see things every day that make you shake your head. But every once in a while, a post lands so hard you can’t just scroll past.

You read that correctly. They are holding a naming contest for a machine whose sole purpose is to abort children. Let’s unpack...

Milwaukee Public Schools announced in September that it would stop hiring new international teachers to help fill desperately needed empty positions. The change comes after the Trump administration announced it is overhauling the H-1B visa program, which MPS uses to fill the jobs. The H-1B program is designed to help U.S. employers hire international applicants to work in specialized industries like tech, education and engineering. The visa is limited to about three years and can be renewed. Among the changes is a hike in the fee for new applications to $100,000. Previously, it cost an employer around $3,000 to hire...

Prosecutors in Wisconsin have just filed an unusual document with a court: They explained that just because a person is a judge, that doesn’t mean she gets a free pass to break the law. That earlier was the stunning claim from Hannah Dugan, a now-suspended judge, arguing that prosecutors weren’t even allowed to bring a case against her after evidence showed she distracted federal agents, then let an illegal alien criminal walk out of the courthouse.

If you’re like me, you’re not surprised that a leftist judge broke the law. Instead, you’re extremely surprised that the federal government is making her pay the price for her illegal conduct. The underlying allegations are simple: In a criminal complaint, the U.S. Justice Department said Hannah Dugan, a Milwaukee County circuit judge, refused to turn over the man after immigration agents showed up to arrest...
