Student Loan Forgiveness: Morally Reprehensible
and Legally Invalid
Posted By: Imright, 4/20/2024 2:10:04 AM
Barack Obama set the stage in 2015 for the student loan forgiveness fiasco when he announced the 'America's College Promise' proposal to make two years of community college free. On the proposal's web page is this: "Students should be able to get the knowledge and the skills they need without taking on decades worth of student debt." (emphasis mine) Obama's idea has now been extended to include four-year colleges. His lackey, that joke who currently occupies the Bully Pulpit, is simply forwarding his boss' idea. The problem for Biden is that Obama's idea is neither legal nor morally acceptable. An article in The Conversation makes a good moral case for not

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) has turned to climate change to explain how the state went from a $100 billion surplus two years ago to a $28 billion deficit, which would have been even higher prior to drastic actions last month.
As CalMatters noted, deficit estimates ranged from $38 billion to $73 billion:
That prompted Newsom and the Legislature to take “early action” last month to reduce the deficit by more than $17 billion ahead of the regular budget process. Their plan included some program cuts, but mostly relied on new revenue, internal borrowing and funding delays and shifts for savings,

Decision Desk called the race for Morrisey at 9:18 p.m. ET. As of 9:35 p.m., roughly 77 percent of the vote was in, and Morrisey held a five-point lead, per the New York Times. He successfully staved off two political dynasties by beating out former State Delegate Moore Capito, the son of U.S. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), and Chris Miller, son of U.S. Rep. Carol Miller (R-WV). They were his top opponents in the crowded field, along with Secretary of State Mac Warner.
Stormy Daniels’ husband and adult film actor Barrett Blade said Tuesday on CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront” that if former President Donald Trump is found not guilty, they will likely leave the United States.
Blade said, “If Trump is found not guilty, I think there’s a — I mean, either way, I don’t think he gets better for her. I think if it’s not guilty, we got to decide what to do. Good chance we’ll probably vacate this country. If he is found guilty, she’s still got to deal with all the hate that feel like she’s the reason that he’s guilty from all of his followers.

The hush money trial against former President Donald Trump hasn't been going well for the prosecution.
As George Washington law professor Jonathan Turley explained, he doesn't think that the prosecution has made their case and believes Judge Juan Merchan should toss it before it goes to the jury. Now, that's if Merchan is judging based on the evidence presented, which remains to be seen. But the comments that Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) made about Cohen are causing a stir for different reasons.
MSNBC's Willie Geist asked him if he thought that the prosecution had made their case. Goldman's response:
U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika refused to throw out a federal gun case against Hunter Biden, clearing the way for a June 3 jury trial.
Noreika rejected the president's son's latest attempt to scrap the case, which will set up a spectacle as his father's re-election bid intensifies.
The president's son, 54, has pleaded not guilty to three felony charges related to him lying about his drug use when purchasing a gun in 2018. He faces up to 25 years in prison if he is convicted after the trial that could last up to nine days.

The younger Biden acknowledged the existence of the diary, writing that she was “deeply saddened” to “even have to write”
The Biden Anti-American Legacy

Never before has an American president been so physically unstable that he needs an accompanying entourage wherever he walks. That shakiness is a visual metaphor of Biden’s presidency. He represents a departure from previous presidents in being the only president who leaves voters doubting whether he is actually in charge and wondering why a frail 81-year-old, broadly despised man is being pushed to run again, even as most don’t believe he’s capable of completing that term if elected.
Biden came in as the anti-Trump antidote who was supposed to unify us and bring the adults back into the room. Biden faces an international and domestic dumpster fire as he flip-flops

Trump undermines himself with crude language

If you are the parent of young children, are you OK with your kids hearing former President Donald Trump’s language and putdowns, like the ones at his rally last Saturday in Wildwood, New Jersey? One can hear a kid justifying his or her own swearing: “If Trump can talk like that, why can’t I?” Is this the way we want our children to be raised? They will learn swear words soon enough (and hopefully control their use of them or eschew them altogether).

Vice President Kamala Harris dropped an f-bomb while dishing out advice during the annual Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies (APAICS) Legislative Leadership Summit in Washington, DC, on Monday.
Harris spoke to the crowd about breaking down barriers and handling opportunities and instances in which an individual is the “only one that looks” like themself.
Harris added that, in certain instances, they would “need to kick that f**king door down.”
Mayor Eric Adams has once again ignited controversy with his latest comments on the city’s lifeguard shortage. The mayor has suggested that illegal immigrants could be the solution to New York City’s staffing woes, specifically because “they’re excellent swimmers.”
This eyebrow-raising connection was made by Mayor Adams during a City Hall briefing when pressed about the challenges facing the city’s beaches and pools. With Memorial Day approaching and no clear resolution in sight, Adams proposed expediting migrant work visas for these critical roles.
“How do we have a large body of people that are in our city, our country, that are excellent swimmers and at the same time we need lifeguards —
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nicholas Kristof wrote in his new book that the American press should not remain “neutral” when it comes to covering former President Donald Trump because of the alleged threat he poses to democracy. (snip) In his book, he warns about Trump and his allies’ alleged attempts to “undermine democracy” and establish “populist authoritarianism,” according to CNN. Kristof also argues that, in a second term, Trump could weaponize the federal government “to punish or intimidate news organizations” and even carry out “assassinations.”
More than half of the foreign-born immigrant population in the United States under President Joe Biden’s administration is unemployed, according to a recent report.
The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) released a report on Monday that showed that just 46 percent of migrants who had arrived in the U.S. “in 2022 or later” were employed as of the beginning of 2024.
“Immigration clearly adds workers to the country, but it just as clearly adds non-workers who need to be supported by the labor of others,” Steven Camarota and Karen Zeigler, researchers with the CIS, wrote.

Stormy Daniels' fellow porn star husband Barret Blade said the couple will probably pack up and flee the United States if Donald Trump wins his hush money trial.
Blade, 50, was also heavily critical of women's groups and other objects of Trump's ire for abandoning his wife – whose $130,000 hush money payment from the former president's team before the 2016 election is at the center of the case – and spent two days last week on the witness stand in the ongoing trial.
In an interview Tuesday, Blade said he's saddened by what he describes as the anger toward his wife

A Mercer County man who was in the U.S. Marine Corps until last week has been charged with making threatening statements about killing white people in a shooting rampage, federal authorities announced Monday.
Joshua Cobb, 23, of Hamilton, mentioned two possible attack locations, a Jersey Strong gym and an Aldi grocery store in Robbinsville, and said he had access to guns and the will to kill a lot of people, authorities allege.
Cobb also fantasized about the adrenaline rush and high he’d feel during such a shooting. “I’d probably OD on my own adrenaline after the 10th body goes down,” he allegedly wrote on social media in March of last year.
A vulnerable congressional Democrat in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania who previously dismissed a border wall as "silly," appears to have shifted her views on immigration, according to a recent op-ed calling for stricter border security.
"We may be a long way from the U.S.-Mexico border, but the problems created by a broken system affect us too, particularly with regard to the entry of illegal drugs into our country," Rep. Susan WIld wrote in an op-ed published last month in The Morning Call. Wild’s op-ed, which was headlined "Your View by US Rep. Susan Wild: It’s time to do something about the Southern border,"
