Biden Considering Massive Student Loan Forgiveness

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration is taking steps to act on a campaign promise to cancel massive student loan debt according to sources at The Hill. The administration is looking to take executive action to forgive $10,000 per borrower with sources claiming even bigger options are on the table.

President Joe Biden’s move to forgive $10,000 per borrower would clear loans for 15 million of 46 million borrowers, Bloomberg reported. Such action would clear $321 billion of federal student loans and would completely wipe out student debt for almost 12 million people, CNBC noted.

The White House has not set an official timeline on the executive action, but some legislators reportedly worry the move could worsen already heightened inflation ahead of the November midterms.

“I would see that as a good first step. Whatever he [Biden] feels comfortable doing, fine. And I’m going to do whatever I feel comfortable doing,” Majority Whip James Clyburn told The Hill. Clyburn has allied with the Biden Administration though he admits $10,000 is not enough, according to The Hill’s report. He continues to work with Senator Elizabeth Warren and others to forgive upwards of $50,000 of student debt per borrower. (Read more from “Biden Considering Massive Student Loan Forgiveness” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi led a group of seven Democrats in a secret congressional delegation to Ukraine on Saturday, the first such official visit.

Pelosi is the highest-ranking U.S. government official to visit the country. The delegation also included Massachusetts Reps. Jim McGovern and Bill Keating, California Reps. Barbara Lee and Adam Schiff, New York Rep. Gregory Meeks, and Colorado Rep. Jason Crow. Two Republicans, Indiana Rep. Victoria Spartz and Montana Sen. Steve Daines, visited the besieged European nation in April, although their trip was not officially organized.

The lawmakers met with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy for several hours, and also walked the streets of Kyiv, according to a video posted to Zelenskyy’s official Twitter account. During the meeting, Pelosi pledged to “be there for you until the fight is done.”

Netflix Nightmare: More Shows Shutting Down

/0 Comments/in , /by

As consumers dump their Netflix subscriptions, the far-left streamer is reportedly stopping the production of two more animated kids’ series.

Dino Daycare, created by Jeff King, and the South Asian-inspired adventure Boons and Curses, created by Jaydeep Hasrajani, will not move forward at the streaming giant, according to a report by the Hollywood Reporter.

Dino Daycare was to feature a 6-year-old boy who helps out at a nursery for baby dinosaurs in a world where dinosaurs never went extinct. Boons and Curses was to center around a young warrior — who is made of butter due to a curse — and who takes on an evil ruler.

The two kids series are not the first shows to be canceled at Netflix amid a major loss of subscribers. Planned animated series based on Jeff Smith’s popular comic book series Bone and Roald Dahl’s novel The Twits have also been canceled.

94 Percent of Americans Concerned About Inflation, Overwhelmingly Trust Republicans to Handle It: Poll

/0 Comments/in , /by

More than 9 in 10 American are concerned about inflation, according to a new poll.

According to the poll of more than 1,000 adults conducted by The Washington Post and ABC News between April 24-28, fully 94% of Americans were either “upset” or “concerned” about the impact of skyrocketing inflation.

The poll asked respondents: “Thinking about the current rate of inflation, meaning rising prices – is this something you are upset about, concerned about but not upset, or not concerned about?” Some 44% of adults said they were “upset” about inflation. Another 50% said they were “concerned but not upset,” and just 6% said they were not concerned.

The poll also asked respondents their opinion of how President Joe Biden was handling his job as president. Biden’s overall approval was underwater by 10 points: 42% of voters approved of Biden’s job, while 52% disapproved. Broken down by intensity, Americans had much stronger negative feelings about Biden than positive. Respondents who approved of Biden were evenly split: 21% strongly approved of Biden’s job, while 21% somewhat approved. Respondents who disapproved were much more intense: 42% of respondents strongly disapproved, while just 10% somewhat disapproved.

Biden Laughing at Trevor Noah’s Remarks on Suffering of Americans Is Not a Great Look

/0 Comments/in , /by

Trevor Noah, host of “The Daily Show,” headlined Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, after President Joe Biden gave his own remarks. Many of the jokes were true, as was also the case with the president’s remarks, specifically as he poked fun at himself with his low approval ratings. When it came time for Noah to reference how the American people are hurting from high costs across the board, Biden’s reaction really drew responses, for all the wrong reasons.

“I think ever since you came into office, things are really looking up, you know. Gas is up, rent is up, food is up, everything.” The camera panned to Biden’s reaction, which wasn’t a simple chuckle, but some hearty laughter.

The next day, on Sunday afternoon, Joe Biden’s personal account tweeted a pitiful attempt of trying to convince Americans that “I’m focused on doing everything I can to lower the cost of gas and energy and accelerate our transition to clean energy.”

The tweet once more prompted replies of that clip of the president laughing while the American people suffer under his administration and due to his policies. (Read more from “Biden Laughing at Trevor Noah’s Remarks on Suffering of Americans Is Not a Great Look” HERE)

Musk No Fan of ‘Far Right,’ but Says ‘Far Left’ ‘Hates Everyone’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Elon Musk already has sent progressives into shock with his purchase of Twitter and his not-at-all-veiled references to free speech returning to the industry-leading social media site.

That alone could disrupt the entire liberal strategy for America’s future, as for years now Twitter has been a leading site for suppressing conservative thought, and amplifying the Democrats’ agenda.

But now he’s gone further, stating online that “By ‘free speech’, I simply mean that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefor, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.”

Further, he confirmed he’s no fan of the “far right,” but charged that “the far left hates everyone, themselves included.” (Read more from “Musk No Fan of ‘Far Right,’ but Says ‘Far Left’ ‘Hates Everyone’” HERE)

Proof ‘Woke’ Leaders Don’t Actually Believe Anything They Say

/0 Comments/in , /by

Every day, America’s leaders bombard the rest of us with a fusillade of the latest “woke” moral imperatives: “Equity!” “Diversity!” “Climate justice!” “Anti-racism!” “Trans rights!” “Reproductive justice!” “Preserving our democracy!”

Whether in government, big tech, big media or big business, our elites continually invoke these and other sacred mantras of the religion of Leftism, displaying to the world their superior moral virtue – in stark contrast to the vast unwashed peasant class comprising tens of millions of bigots, extremists, white supremacists, conservatives and other deplorables.

Yet, probe just beneath the surface of their “woke” righteousness, their passionate angst over “systemic racism,” “marginalized communities” and “saving the planet,” and it turns out most of these wealthy elites – whose policies are, after all, wrecking the country – don’t really believe in any of the left’s phantasmagoric causes.

They know men can’t have babies.

They know getting rid of police causes crime. (Read more from “Proof ‘Woke’ Leaders Don’t Actually Believe Anything They Say” HERE)

Oh, Shocker…Twitter Sees Spike in User Growth Following Elon Musk’s Takeover

/0 Comments/in , /by

Are we shocked that Twitter is going to get better now that ownership is changing? I’ve seen it on my end and others have noted it as well. The engagement is through the roof. Follower counts are spiking again. Twitter is becoming a beehive of activity now that the censorship police on the platform have been gutted. They’ve been clipped. Elon Musk has purchased the company for $44 billion. The Left is going nuts. The employees are taking valium. And Elon Musk is going to make the platform what it once was—or at least that’s the hope. It can’t get any worse than it is now, so there’s a huge upside here with Musk taking over (via NY Post):

Twitter on Thursday said its user growth is surging amid weak revenue in what is expected to be one of its final earnings reports as a publicly traded company before billionaire Elon Musk takes the social media firm private.

Twitter’s base of monetizable daily active users – considered the company’s key reporting metric – grew 16% to 229 million during the quarter ending on March 31 – a period that concluded just days before Musk disclosed his 9% stake in the company.

That disclosure proceeded Musk’s effort to buy the company outright with a plan to dial down its content moderation policies.

Troops Allege Military’s COVID Vaccine Mandate Is a ‘Religious Purge’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Three active duty service members appeared in a segment aired Thursday on a podcast hosted by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Florida, accusing the Defense Department of using the COVID-19 vaccine mandate to “intentionally purge” religious service members.

Air Force Capt. Jordan Karr, Army Maj. Samuel Sigoloff and Air Force Master Sgt. Nickolas Kupper made their cases from a variety of angles ― including religious freedom, controversy over the emergency authorization vs. Food and Drug Administration-approved version of the Pfizer vaccine and “natural immunity” to the novel coronavirus. But all agreed that the involuntary separation policy for vaccine refusal is part of a concerted effort to remove certain members of the military.

“If you are a believer and you are listening to this podcast, you need to understand that God-fearing service members are being intentionally purged from the services,” Karr said.

All three service members are party to one of several lawsuits troops have filed against the Defense Department and the services, alleging mostly that the religious exemption process is unconstitutional.

“It’s a purposeful purge,” Sigoloff added. “Anyone who would disobey an unlawful order is being purged out of the military, and there is a shadow policy in place that that is protecting all of these people enforcing this shadow policy.” (Read more from “Troops Allege Military’s COVID Vaccine Mandate Is a ‘Religious Purge’” HERE)

Biden Blasted for Policing Free Speech With ‘Dystopian’ Disinformation Bureau

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .President Biden came under fire Thursday for the creation of a “dystopian” disinformation bureau created under his Homeland Security department, which critics are blasting as just a way for the government to police free speech online.

Conservatives slammed the Department of Homeland Security’s Orwellian new “Disinformation Governance Board” – with some suggesting the timing is convenient given Elon Musk vowed to make Twitter a free speech haven after his $44 billion takeover of the social media platform notorious for selectively censoring right-leaning points of view.

Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley called the new board a “disgrace” that was designed to “monitor all Americans’ speech.”

In a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Hawley said he initially thought Wednesday’s announcement was “satire.”

“Surely, no American administration would ever use the power of government to sit in judgement on the First Amendment speech of its own citizens. Sadly, I was mistaken,” Hawley wrote. (Read more from “Biden Blasted for Policing Free Speech With ‘Dystopian’ Disinformation Bureau” HERE)
