GOP Rails Against Biden’s Half a Trillion Dollar Loan Forgiveness Plan

According to an analysis from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, President Biden’s debt cancellation plan will cost between “$440 billion and $600 billion over the next ten years,” and Republicans are continuing to warn that the move is not fiscally responsible or fair.

President Biden on Wednesday announced his plan to forgive a portion of student loan debt for those earning less than $125,000 per year.

According to a graphic shared by Biden, under the plan, those making less than $125,000 will see $20,000 forgiveness if they went to college on a Pell Grant, and $10,000 for those who did not receive Pell Grants:

While some Democrats say the plan does not go far enough, most are celebrating it as a step in the right direction, while conservatives continue to warn that it is yet another irresponsible and unfair fiscal move at the hands of Democrats.

“Why should a machinist in Ohio pay for the student loans of a jobless philosophy major in Los Angeles?” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) asked on Thursday:

Ashley Biden’s Shocking Diary Is Real, Confirming Creepy Joe Biden Allegations; Trump Campaign Rejected Offer to Buy

Two Florida residents pleaded guilty to stealing President Joe Biden’s daughter Ashley Biden’s diary; and then selling it to the conservative group Project Veritas.

Aimee Harris and Robert Kurlander admitted in a New York City federal court to conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property involving the theft of personal belongings of an immediate family member of a then-former government official who was a candidate for national political office.

“Harris and Kurlander stole personal property from an immediate family member of a candidate for national political office… they sold the property to an organization in New York for $40,000 and even returned to take more of the victim’s property when asked to do so. Harris and Kurlander sought to profit from their theft of another person’s personal property, and they now stand convicted of a federal felony as a result,” Damian Williams, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, said in a statement. . .

According to the diary, Ashley wrote that her father and our president took showers with her when she was young girl, fueling her sex-addiction.

Inside a January 2019 diary entry, she wrote “I remember having sex with friends @ a young age; showers w/ my dad.” (Read more from “Ashley Biden’s Shocking Diary Is Real, Confirming Creepy Joe Biden Allegations” HERE)

Trump Campaign Rejected Offer to Buy Biden Daughter’s Diary

By Axios. Donald Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign rejected an offer to buy President Biden’s daughter’s stolen diary, federal prosecutors say.

The revelation comes amid a criminal investigation into how the diary and other property belonging to Ashley Biden ended up in the hands of right-wing journalists.

Two Florida individuals pled guilty on Thursday to transporting stolen property across state lines for their roles in selling Ashley Biden’s diary to Project Veritas, the organization run by conservative provocateur James O’Keefe. . .

Before pitching it to Project Veritas, Harris and Kurlander first approached the Trump campaign about buying the stolen material, the court filing says. (Read more from “Trump Campaign Rejected Offer to Buy Biden Daughter’s Diary” HERE)

Here’s the Woman Who Launched the FBI Ransacking of Mar-a-Lago

By Townhall. . .The latest development in this legal fiasco is Acting Archivist Debra Steidel Wall’s role in the document retrieval, where she seems to be one of the leading figures who triggered the FBI raid. As Tom Elliott of Grabien clipped, Trump honored this woman during his presidency, which he cited as a failure on the former president’s part for not draining the swamp (via WaPo):

Acting Archivist Debra Steidel Wall also notified Trump’s lawyer Evan Corcoran that the agency would provide the FBI access to 15 boxes of materials in order to investigate “whether those records were handled in an unlawful manner” and conduct an assessment to determine if any damage might have resulted from the improper handling of materials, according to the May 10 letter.

[…]

“As the Department of Justice’s National Security Division explained to you on April 29, 2022: ‘There are important national security interests in the FBI and others in the Intelligence Community getting access to these materials. According to NARA, among the materials in the boxes are over 100 documents with classification markings, comprising more than 700 pages. Some include the highest levels of classification, including Special Access Program (SAP) materials,’” Steidel Wall wrote.

The FBI removed an additional 20 boxes of items from the Mar-a-Lago Club earlier this month, including four sets of top-secret documents and seven other sets of classified information, according to a written inventory of the items seized in the high-profile search of Mar-a-Lago earlier this month.

Judge Gives Trump Until Friday to Clarify Request for Special Master on Records Seized by FBI

By The Hill. A federal judge on Tuesday responded to former President Trump’s lawsuit requesting a special master to review the documents collected by the FBI from his Mar-a-Lago residence, giving Trump a Friday deadline to clarify his request.

U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida Judge Aileen Cannon issued an order for Trump to elaborate on how the court has jurisdiction and precisely what he wants the court to order in the case.

She also asked Trump’s team to provide more details on whether it served the Department of Justice (DOJ) with the suit and on the lawsuit’s effect on another proceeding determining if parts of the affidavit that supported the search warrant should be released.

The request was one of two brief orders filed on Tuesday by Cannon, who was nominated to the position by Trump in 2020. She also issued a separate one asking two of his attorneys to correctly format and resubmit their motions to appear pro hac vice, which allow lawyers to appear in courts in which they are not admitted for a particular case.

Biden Announces Additional $3 Billion Security Package to Ukraine

The U.S. will ship Ukraine $3 billion worth of missiles, artillery rounds and drones in the latest military aid package intended to help Kyiv defend itself following Russia’s invasion six months ago.

The package includes six more National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems (NASAMS) and munitions; up to 245,000 rounds of 155 mm artillery ammunition; and up to 65,000 rounds of 120 mm mortar ammo, Pentagon officials told reporters on Wednesday.

Colin Kahl, the Pentagon’s undersecretary of defense for policy, said the latest Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) program represents a multiyear investment to help Kyiv fend off Russia.

“We will stick with Ukraine over the long haul,” Mr. Kahl said.

The latest plan represents a change in the way the Biden administration has helped supply Ukraine’s forces. In the past, the Pentagon pulled military equipment from its own stock to supply Ukraine with lethal hardware. Under USAI, the government will be able to procure Ukraine’s needs directly from private industry suppliers. (Read more from “Biden Announces Additional $3 Billion Security Package to Ukraine” HERE)

Reporter Asks Biden if Student Debt Relief Is Fair to People Who Already Paid, and His Response Gets Instant Backlash (VIDEO)

President Joe Biden was challenged by a reporter about the fairness of his student debt relief order, and his answer was immediately lambasted by many on social media.

Biden was speaking about the student debt program he ordered Wednesday when a reporter asked him to comment on the challenge that the policy was unfair to those borrowers who worked hard to pay off their loans.

“Is this unfair to people who paid their student loans or chose not to take out loans?” asked Karen Travers of ABC News.

“Is it fair to people who, in fact, do not own multi-billion-dollar businesses if they see one of these guys getting all the tax breaks? Is that fair? What do you think?” Biden responded.

“What about people who paid their loans, though, struggled to pay their loans, and now others don’t have to?” asked another reporter.

More Lies? Biden Insists He Had ‘Zero’ Prior Notice of FBI Mar-A-Lago Raid

President Joe Biden broke his silence Wednesday on the FBI raid of former President Donald Trump’s home. . .

“I didn’t have any advance notice. None. Zero,” Biden said, raising his hand to make a circle with his finger and thumb. “Not one single bit.” . . .

At the time, Biden officials speaking to media outlets repeated that no one in the White House had advance notice of the raid. . .

Recently uncovered correspondence with Trump’s attorneys and members of Biden’s legal team show that Biden’s then-White House Deputy Counsel Jonathan Su waived Trump’s claim of executive privilege surrounding documents in the president’s possession.

That suggests that while some of Biden’s legal staffers might not have known about the specifics of the raid, they could have known about the effect their actions would have on the ongoing FBI investigation.

Democrats: It’s Not Enough, ‘Cancel All Student Debt’

President Biden’s plan to cancel a portion of student loan debt has drawn mixed reactions from both far-leftists and conservatives across social media as some leftists contend it is not enough while others celebrate it as a victory for racial justice, and conservatives claim it will only benefit elites.

President Biden on Wednesday announced his plan to forgive a portion of student loan debt for individual borrowers making less than $125,000.

“In keeping with my campaign promise, my Administration is announcing a plan to give working and middle class families breathing room as they prepare to resume federal student loan payments in January 2023. I’ll have more details this afternoon,” Biden said in a post on social media ahead of an afternoon press conference.

According to the graphic attached to the tweet, the administration will forgive $20,000 if an individual making under $125,000 annually went to college on Pell Grants. The figure reduces to $10,000 if the individual did not receive Pell Grants. Additionally, the student loan pause has been extended for the rest of the year, expiring December 31, 2022:

Biden Set to Cancel up to $10K in Student Debt — Here’s What It Will Cost the Average Taxpayer

By New York Post. President Biden is expected to announce a plan Wednesday to cancel thousands of dollars in federal student loan debt for borrowers who make less than $125,000 per year — despite one think tank warning it could cost the average taxpayer more than $2,000.

CNN, citing multiple sources familiar with the discussions, first reported late Monday that the president would announce the write-off of up to $10,000 per borrower after he returns to Washington from his Delaware beach house.

The Associated Press reported Tuesday evening that Biden will also announce an extension of the current loan payment moratorium until January, after the midterm elections.

Republicans accused the Biden administration of trying to buy the votes of young, college-educated Americans from wealthy families in November.

“Most Americans do things the right way. You pay your debts,” tweeted Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC). “Instead, our Administration wants to redistribute billions in student loan debt to our taxpayers.” (Read more from “Biden Set to Cancel up to $10K in Student Debt — Here’s What It Will Cost the Average Taxpayer” HERE)

Joe Biden Expected to Announce $10,000 Student Loan Forgiveness Program Wednesday: Report

By Fox News. President Joe Biden is expected to announce a much-anticipated loan forgiveness program Wednesday, sources familiar with the plan told the Associated Press.

Americans are poised to foot a nearly $300 billion deal with President Biden’s expected announcement on Wednesday to forgive thousands in federal student loan debt and extend a repayment pause to next year.

According to the Penn Wharton Budget Model, a one-time maximum debt forgiveness of $10,000 for borrowers who make less than $125,000 will cost around $300 billion for taxpayers.

The cost increases to around $330 billion if the program is continued over the standard 10-year window, according to the figures.

The precise details of Biden’s plan were being kept to an unusually small circle within the Biden administration and were still not finalized on the eve of the announcement, sources told the Associated Press.

Deaths of Migrant Children Expose Biden’s Cruelty

The kids drowned in the Rio Grande, trying to cross the river with groups of illegal migrants enticed here by Biden’s implicit promise of permanent US residence once over the border.

That promise underlies every Biden policy on immigration, and it has now engendered a full-blown humanitarian crisis.

The steadily climbing number of migrant deaths at the southern border proves that starkly: 300 in 2019; 247 in 2020 — then a record 566 in 2021, followed by 609 this year just through July. (Read more from “Deaths of Migrant Children Expose Biden’s Cruelty” HERE)

Number of Americans Who Are ‘Suffering’ Reach Record Highs Under Biden

. . .American families tread water amid an administration oozing with incompetence. As this old man spews nonsense about how he’s presiding over the most outstanding economy ever created, the number of Americans saying they’re suffering has reached record highs (via Axios):

5.6% of Americans said they are “suffering” in July, up from the previous high of 4.8% measured in April.

July’s result is also higher than all previous estimates during the COVID-19 era, per Gallup.

The big picture: The percentage of U.S. adults classified as “thriving” has declined steadily since it reached a record high of 59.2% in June 2021.

July’s estimate of 51.2% adults classified as “thriving” is an 18-month low, per Gallup.
