Millions of Americans with student loan debt are hanging on the edge of a cliff — a debt default cliff.

And the Trump Administration is making it harder for them to hold on.

Dear President Zelenskyy,

I hope you realize that I, and tens of millions of Americans, stand with you and the Ukrainian people—and firmly against Donald Trump, JD Vance, and the Republican Party.

(The Guardian) Seems like at least once a DAY, the SECDEF has a new reason that the boats in the Caribbean have been assaulted. Here is today's or this morning's version.

Trump officials say second strike aimed to destroy drug boat instead of crew
Officials hew closely to secret memo which gives legal cover to firing on boats even if it would kill people on board

Israel says it will reopen the Rafah border crossing in Gaza — but only so Palestinians can leave. Human rights lawyer Sari Bashi says it adds to fears that the U.S. ceasefire deal lets Israel "continue the ethnic cleansing."

Why did Trump pardon the former Honduran president?

An unlikely combination of convicted-then-pardoned felon Roger Stone and some Trump-loving tech bros can offer some clues.

Donald Trump and Republicans gave billionaire corporations a giant tax handout to "incentivize" investments they ALREADY MADE.

As far as I'm aware, they don’t have a time machine.

It's just the latest excuse to throw money at billionaires while Americans struggle to get by.
Corporations to claim $16B from retroactive GOP tax break, federal report says
The Republican tax law's bonus depreciation provision is expected to cost $362.7 billion over the next ten years, with corporations claiming $16 billion in new tax breaks this year.

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Congress established an emergency fund to ensure that millions of Americans on SNAP continue to receive nutrition assistance when funding expires in November.

Mr. President: Don’t let kids go hungry. Use these emergency funds to feed low-income families.

1/5 The Young Republican group chat leak is appalling.

Racist slurs, Holocaust jokes, praise for Hitler, and talk of rape as “epic.”

This is not an isolated incident but the result of nearly a decade of Trumpism.

The GOP today is unrecognizable from the party it once was

Russ Vought's neighbors have strong feelings about him:

"You asked what it is like living near such a man. Frankly, I'd rather not, but this is a wonderful neighborhood and, unlike Mr. Vought himself, we do not want our neighbors (even Mr. Vought) to be traumatized. So we just live with it."
Russ Vought is Trump’s shutdown hero. His neighbors think his work is "abhorrent."
The people living near Trump's "grim reaper" of government cuts have put up signs letting him know they stand with federal workers.

The government does not have the power to declare “free speech zones.” And the violent arrest of the rabbi should set off some alarm bells.
Heard an officer say "let's do it" and then, in the dark, they tackle Rabbi Ben to the ground. He's being loaded into a CCSO wagon now. Broadview police also here screaming at people.
