The public service loan forgiveness (PSLF) program wipes your loans, tax free, after making 120 consecutive on-time payments (10 years) while working in qualified public sector roles. In theory it's the most cost-efficient route, as a means to encourage people to start their careers in lower-paying yet still necessary public sector jobs. A significant portion of the Biden admin's forgiveness was for PSLF loans that the previous Trump admin deliberately tied up to prevent borrowers from ever hitting that ten year mark. Either slow walking the forgiveness or forcing the clock to restart due to technicalities, etc. If I recall correctly, the Republicans who sued over the blanket forgiveness programs made the argument that it devalued PSLF, while at the same time Republicans want to kill that path outright.

one last batch of forgiveness before we're the freeloading villains again https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/biden-harris-administration-announces-group-discharge-261000-borrowers-loans-ashford-university

Global inflation taking out every elected government, regardless if it's left or right it makes me feel better about the trump win because it was near inevitable, but it makes me feel worse about it knowing that the least qualified man in America was going to win because of a global issue no incumbent government had control over beyond what they were already doing

happy birthday @Rogue_Alphonse

The Roger Ailes plan was to create alternative media that instills the Republican base with such absolute loyalty that it would prevent another Nixon resignation/impeachment. He won.

lol every one of his criminal things got spliced into its own thread because it was getting too complicated to keep track and then in the end none of it matters because justice isn't real

It's the judge's way of preserving the conviction without fueling claims that it's a burden towards governing.

Mike Johnson was short by a couple votes for speaker and then he bought off the two holdouts he needed somehow.

The House is doing the vote for Speaker now. The stand-in announced Matt Gaetz wouldn't join the new Congress and people clapped. https://bsky.app/profile/acyn.bsky.social/post/3leu5at2wfi2a
