The school district superintendent arrested by ICE this week lied about attending MIT and was the subject of two sex discrimination lawsuits, The Post has learned. Snappy-dresser Ian Andre Roberts, 51, was fired by Des Moines Public Schools after it emerged he was working illegally and had been avoiding a deportation order.

Ashley Hinson.

My daughter’s death exposes how Illinois’s criminal justice and sanctuary policies failed her. President Donald Trump is in an ongoing struggle with Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, with Pritzker seeking to slander or stymie every effort Trump makes to restore law and order in the streets of Chicago and in Illinois more broadly. That struggle for law and order is personal for me. My daughter died after allegedly being left unresponsive in the home of an illegal alien from Mexico, and Illinois’ politicians put him right back on the streets. On Feb. 19, 2025, my daughter Megan, a vibrant 37-year-old and...

This editor picked up the language-learning app Babbel during a recent sale, and though he'd prefer to learn French, he picked Central American Spanish, figuring if the country is going to be taken over by illegal aliens from Central America, he'd better be prepared. His Spanish isn't good enough to translate this, although it's reported that Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez told an audience at the second annual Panamerican Congress this weekend that she's a proud Guatemalan before she's an American. VIDEO AT LINK: Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez at a summit in Mexico City this weekend tells the audience while speaking...
