@SenSanders @SenWarren @AOC SAVE litigation should not count against PSLF/TLF eligible borrowers who were held in limbo and uncertainty. This time of uncertainty should count toward eligibility, just like COVID did.

@SenSanders @SenWarren @AOC The 3 of you should work to make the time students were in forbearance during SAVE litigation count toward PSLF & TLF. I was employed full-time in a qualifying position. The litigation put us in forbearance & none of that time counts toward forgiveness

[Drew Halter @DHalter95]

@SenSanders @SenWarren @AOC this would be a huge step to help a lot of students in repayment. Along with capping interest rates on federal student loans. 5%+ is extreme.

I guess they will have to start putting “2” instead of “II”… 😳

“World War Eleven”

Yes, that was deadly

[JP Sears @AwakenWithJP]

If you used to like Tucker, Alex, Candace, and Megyn but stopped liking them WHEN Trump turned on them, that is not a coincidence. You are a puppet. You might fool yourself and say “noooo,” yet you fool no one else. Everyone can see the elbow that’s up to your asshole.

BREAKING: Responding to Thursday's brutal @TruthSocial post by @POTUS, @TuckerCarlson tells @NEWSMAX: "I’ve always liked Trump and still feel sorry for him, as I do for all slaves.” Asked to elaborate, Carlson added: “He’s hemmed in by other forces. He can’t make his own decisions. It’s awful to watch." More in this space shortly.

Congrats to Iowa!

If Iowa fires McCaffery and hires McCollum, who is an Iowa native, before Dolson’s light bulb comes on, Indiana should fire Dolson. #iubb

Today Lindsey Graham, who for some reason has been the White House's top spokesman for this war, went on TV and invoked Iwo Jima while calling for more escalation in Iran. Iwo Jima of course involved 26 thousand US casualties. It's extremely troubling that Graham has so much influence with the administration and has been so empowered to speak on its behalf. He is not conservative, he is not America first, he has never done a single thing in his career to advance the interests of actual American citizens, and he clearly wants this war to continue indefinitely and doesn't care how many Americans die in the process. He should have no influence and no say over anything. He's one of the worst people in all of congress and that includes the Democrats.

Your daily reminder that Mark Levin did not support Trump in 2016 OR in the 2024 primaries.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

I have an earnest question for my friends in MAGA (now defined by Trump to mean: those who agree with whatever views myself and Mark Levin are expressing).

Here was Trump's vicious, accurate critique of Liz Cheney last year. How does it not apply at least equally to Mark Levin?

[Drew Halter @DHalter95]

Vance and Charlie, together, would have talked Trump out of this mess. Vance, unfortunately, could not do it on his own. Especially with Tulsi and Tucker sidelined to Lindsey.

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

No nukes for Iran

No troops on the ground

No us troops dead

No regime change

No nation building

No war

President Trump with a historic masterclass.

Joe Rogan on President Trump and the Iran War:

"It just seems so insane based on what he ran on. This is why a lot of people feel betrayed. He ran on no more wars and these stupid, senseless wars. And then we have one that we can't even really clearly define why we did it."

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

It’s going unnoticed because so much other news is happening, but the war drums are beating again in D.C. The warmongers worry this is their last chance to get the white whale they’ve been chasing for thirty years, an all-out regime change war against Iran.

A new Middle East war would be a catastrophic mistake. Our military stockpiles are depleted from three years of backing Ukraine. Our effort to reshore manufacturing has only just begun and will take years to bear fruit. War would worsen our already immense deficit and national debt. Iran is larger than Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan combined. A war would not be easy and could easily become a calamity.

Thanks to President Trump’s restraint during his first term, America has a golden opportunity to pull away from Middle East quagmires for good. We shouldn’t throw that opportunity away so that sone D.C. has-beens can feel tough by sending young Americans to die yet again.

[Drew Halter @DHalter95]

@jonkarl @TuckerCarlson is more MAGA than any sitting U.S. Senator running around with a “Make Iran Great Again” hat.

[The American Conservative @amconmag]

Ron Paul on the Iran War:

"President Trump listened to the Neocons and Netanyahu instead of his MAGA base and other voices of caution. Regime change wars never work. When the smoke clears we may see billions wasted on another war - just what Trump promised he would not do."

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

So far we’ve heard that although we killed the whole Iranian regime, this was not a regime change war. And although we obliterated their nuclear program, we had to do this because of their nuclear program. And although Iran was not planning any attacks on the US, they also might have been, depending on who you ask. And although we are not fighting this war to free the Iranian people, they are now free, or might be, depending on who seizes power, and we have no idea who that will be. The messaging on this thing is, to put it mildly, confused.

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

This is insane. Regime change will result in a bloody civil war, killing hundreds of thousands and creating another massive Muslim refugee crisis. Topping a leader is NEVER as easy you think. It almost always results in further involvement, a civil war, and chaos. Resist this!

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

As always I only support military action anywhere, in any context, if it directly serves the interests of American citizens. It’s troubling that the arguments we’re hearing for this war in Iran, including from Trump himself, seem to revolve primarily around “bringing freedom to the Iranian people.” As Americans, the freedom of Iranians is not our responsibility. If a single American life is lost in the service of that goal, it will be a travesty.

What nobody has even come close to sufficiently explaining is how this war will first and foremost directly benefit American citizens. That is a case that needed to have been made clearly and convincingly before this move, and it wasn’t. We’re also told how this will benefit Israel, and I’m sure it will. But Israel is not America. What does it do for America? How does it help us? That needs to be explained to us. And it isn’t “panicking” or demonstrating “disloyalty” to demand those very basic answers about how American tax money, and potentially American lives, are being spent.

We hear about the danger of a nuclear Iran, but that’s odd because we were told that Iran’s nuclear capabilities had already been set back decades. We hear that this war will be over quickly and easily because Iran is powerless, which I hope and pray is the case, and maybe it will be. But that’s odd, too, because if Iran is such a paper tiger then how were they a danger to us in the first place? It seems hard to argue both that Iran is an existential threat to the United States and that we can topple them in 20 minutes with no casualties or negative downstream effects.

Also the political calculation really matters here. A huge majority of American oppose this. That’s just a fact. If it costs Republicans in 26 and 28, then, no matter how things work out in Iran, it will not have been worth it. A free Iran at the cost of Democrat rule here at home is a bad deal. A free Iran for an unfree America would be just about the worst trade of the century.

I’m praying for our great country today.
