Yamandú Orsi of the Broad Front coalition has won Uruguay's presidential runoff, ousting the conservative government after five years. With nearly all votes counted, Orsi secured just over 49%, while Álvaro Delgado conceded with 46%. Orsi, a former history teacher, aims to unite the nation and address issues like poverty and crime.
His victory reflects a broader trend in South America, where incumbents are being challenged amid economic struggles.

GB News: Fraud watchdog spends £250million on botched investigation
A decade-long investigation by the Serious Fraud Office into Kazakh mining company Eurasian Natural Resources Corporation (ENRC) has cost British taxpayers over £250 million. The SFO spent £27 million on the probe, which was abandoned in 2022 due to insufficient evidence, and has set aside an additional £237.7 million for potential legal settlements.
The investigation began in 2013, focusing on alleged bribery, but faced legal challenges from ENRC, which accused the SFO of misconduct. A High Court ruling found the SFO acted in bad faith, leading to the investigation's cessation. The final settlement amount will be determined in a trial expected in late 2025 or early 2026.

The Federalist: Abolishing The Ed Dept. Is Just The First Step In Fixing Schools
Donald Trump has nominated Linda McMahon as Secretary of Education, a choice that some conservatives view positively due to her business background. Critics argue she lacks educational experience, but supporters believe she will bring necessary reforms to the struggling K-12 system.
However, the Department of Education's role is often misunderstood. While eliminating it may seem beneficial, real change requires broader reforms, including school choice, merit pay for teachers, and accountability through standardized testing. These measures could foster competition and decentralization in education.
Fox News: Chicago Public Schools suffering from 'chronic absenteeism' by teachers as union demands higher pay: report
The Chicago Public School system is facing significant teacher absenteeism, with over 41% of teachers missing more than 10 days this school year. This issue coincides with ongoing contract negotiations where the Chicago Teachers Union is demanding a 9% annual raise and additional funding for various initiatives.
Despite these demands, CPS officials argue that the district cannot afford the proposed raises. The union's requests come amid poor student performance, with only 21% of eighth-graders reading proficiently. Critics question the value of the union's demands given the high per-student investment in the district.

The Federalist: Is 'The Wild Robot' A Family Film Or Transhumanist Propaganda?
Chris Sanders' animated film "The Wild Robot" features a robot named Roz, who, after being stranded on an island, forms a bond with a goose hatchling. The story explores themes of motherhood, community, and personal growth, presenting parental figures positively amidst the challenges of child-rearing.
However, the film raises concerns about cultural conditioning that humanizes robots, potentially leading to the perception of robots as equals or superiors to humans. This could contribute to a narrative that undermines humanity's unique role in the world, prompting discussions among parents and children about the value of human life.
