U.S. Magistrate Judge Miguel Torres denied on Monday an unprecedented motion to dismiss criminal charges against four Central American parents and one grandmother for illegally crossing the border and whom were separated from their accompanying children as a result. The Office of the Federal Public Defender for the Western District of Texas argued that prosecuting potential asylum seekers and removing their children violates the U.S. Constitution because they are pleading guilty under duress to be reunited with their kids.
Don't like skipping work to take your child to the doctor? Republicans have done away with the Children's Health Insurance Program, which protected 9 million children whose families' insurance policies don't cover them because of a legal glitch.

Fox News host Sean Hannity has become a reliable ally for powerful men accused of sexual assault and harassment, regularly using his platform to discredit women who report sexual misconduct and cast doubt on their complaints. Here is a look back on the ways Hannity has attempted to undermine these women and defend the men who have been reported.
Franklin Graham came under fire Friday when he took to Twitter to defend Roy Moore, the GOP's embattled Alabama U.S. Senate hopeful who in recent weeks has had several women accuse him of sexual misconduct from decades ago when they were teenagers.

Standing by his wife at a hastily called news conference, Moore says he did not know Beverly Young Nelson and "never did what she said I did." Moore says he is unfamiliar with the restaurant where the woman said Moore was a regular customer.
Roy Moore, the Alabama Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, has been accused of previous sexual misconduct with teenagers, which he has denied. Another woman has charged that Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore sexually assaulted her when she was a teen, and top Republicans now threaten to expel Moore should he win Alabama's special election on Dec. 12. In an emotional news conference, Beverly Young Nelson said Moore groped her and tried to force himself on her in his car behind the restaurant where the then-16-year-old worked.
A Utah contractor with ties to a polygamous group is set to appear in court Monday to challenge a judge's finding that they put nearly 200 children to work picking pecans for long hours in the cold without pay. Paragon Contractors' lawyers argue the kids were volunteering with their families to pick up fallen nuts for the needy and children looked forward to the break from home-schooling.
Looks like scandal-ridden Roy Moore, the twice fired chief justice of the Alabama State Supreme Court and Republican candidate for Senate who lusted after teenage girls while in the 30s , is stealing a tactic from equally-scandalous Donald Trump. Moore says he's going to sue The Washington Post for writing about Moore's predilection for young female flesh in the late 1970s while he was an assistant district attorney in Alabama, where a popular joke says a virgin in that state is any 13-year-old year old who can outrun a dirty old man.

Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore declined Friday to rule out that he may have dated girls in their late teens when he was in his 30s, though he said he did not remember any such encounters and described such behavior as inappropriate. "If I did, I'm not going to dispute these things, but I don't remember anything like that," Moore said on Sean Hannity's radio program, when asked whether he had dated 17- or 18-year-old girls at the time.
His party suddenly and bitingly divided, Alabama Republican Roy Moore emphatically rejected increasing pressure to abandon his Senate bid on Friday as fears grew among GOP leaders that a once-safe Senate seat was in jeopardy just a month before a special election.
