Rashida Tlaib Wants You to Pay Her Student Debt
Posted By: Imright, 12/6/2021 5:29:26 PM
Socialist Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib took to the House floor recently to complain about her personal student debt and advocated American taxpayers should bailout students like her. (Tweet/Video) Tlaib is a perfect example of how federal bailouts of student loans would actually benefit the rich. It’s not just the poor taking out loans. Students from families earning more than $114,000 a year borrow at the same rate as the lowest-income students — and they take out loans nearly twice as large. Students with advanced degrees — lawyers, doctors and others — account for 40% of all student debt.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) brought THE FIRE today to the House floor calling out Democrats for who they are — Communists running a Kangaroo Court out to get Republicans and Trump supporters.MTG went to the floor and BLASTED AWAY– Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: I rise in opposition to this resolution to hold Mark Meadows in contempt of Congress because it’s being held by nothing but a Kangaroo Court. Congress’s job is to make laws, not enforce them. that’s the role of the executive and the judicial branch of this government. But somehow the Communists here in charge
The Senate voted Tuesday afternoon to raise the debt ceiling by $2.5 trillion - a day before Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the U.S. could go into default. Only Democrats voted in favor of the hike, with the final vote standing at 50 to 49, with one Republican abstaining. That meant there was no need for Vice President Kamala Harris to break a tie. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on the floor Tuesday morning that the hike would allow the U.S. to borrow enough money to fund its expenses into 2023 - after the midterm elections. Schumer and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell struck a deal last week,

Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows is speaking out in response to the House Jan. 6 Select Committee’s vote to recommend criminal charges against him for contempt of Congress after he refused to cave to their demands.“It’s disappointing, but not surprising,” Meadows told Sean Hannity on his Fox News show Monday. “Let’s be clear about this, this is not about me, holding me in contempt. It’s not even about making the Capitol safer. We’ve seen that by the selective leaks that are going on right now. This is about Donald Trump and about actually going after him once again.”

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was ordered Tuesday to turn over the proceeds from his pandemic book deal - an estimated $5.1 million - to the state Attorney General's office within the next 30 days, following a probe by a state ethics panel.The profits from Cuomo's 'American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic' came into question in October, when The Joint Commission on Public Ethics (JCOPE) announced that they were conducting an internal inquiry into its approval of Cuomo's 2020 book.Last month, after analyzing the methods Cuomo used to prepare the tell-all, the ethics agency voted to revoke its prior approval of the book,

CNN suggested Monday 11 candidates who could replace President Joe Biden on the Democrat primary ticket in 2024.The establishment news network, which the White House has courted to tamp down coverage of Biden’s poor economic record, admitted the president’s “age” and “ongoing political struggles” are a factor in 2024 considerations.Biden’s approval ratings have dipped into the high 30s amid 40 year-high inflation, the southern border crisis, and the deadly Afghan withdrawal that left hundreds of Americans stranded in the country. He will turn 82 years old two weeks after the 2024 election.
The European Court of Justice ruled on Tuesday that same-sex parents and children must be legally recognized as family in all member states.The ruling determined children have a legal guarantee of free movement between countries, a key right for European Union citizens. The right was used as the basis for the new requirement that all member nations must acknowledge the family relationship, rather than allowing individual nations the right to the decision. The case involved Bulgarian authorities who would not legally provide an infant daughter of a same-sex couple a birth certificate,
After months of foot-dragging, Joe Biden’s Justice Department is preparing for the first set of trials related to its sprawling prosecution of January 6 defendants: Robert Gieswein, who turned himself in and was arrested on January 19 for his involvement in the Capitol protest, is scheduled to stand trial in February.A week after his arrest, Gieswein, 24 at the time, was indicted by a federal grand jury on six counts including “assaulting, resisting, or impeding” law enforcement with a dangerous weapon that day. He has been behind bars ever since, denied bail while Judge Emmet Sullivan delayed his trial on numerous occasions.

“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg stated that she was pro-life Monday during a broadcast of the show. The hosts of “The View“ were discussing the Supreme Court’s ruling on the Texas Heartbeat Act, which allows people to sue abortion performers and those who assist them for $10,000. “They shouldn’t have introduced it in the first place, Goldberg said. “But now they’ve opened up the door to it, and it’s just, you watch and see how many folks come running through, because the bottom line is, really, has always been, I, too, am pro-life.

Remember back in August when the Biden administration, through its Pentagon brass, announced a "righteous" drone strike in Kabul that supposedly stopped an imminent suicide bombing amid President Biden's disastrous and deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan? The one that turned out to have been a complete miss and killed ten innocent civilians including seven children? Well, no one's getting punished, as Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby announced Monday.

Everyone’s understandably focused today on how Cheney embarrassed Trump Jr and the Fox News gang by reading their texts to Trump on January 6. Ed has a nice write-up about it here. But don’t miss the forest for the trees. The point Cheney was making isn’t that Fox News hosts are hypocrites, although they are. The point is that the president’s own family and allies were pleading with him while the riot was unfolding to do something, yet he did nothing — for hours. Everyone around him treated it like an emergency. Not him.
Was that a crime?

A new super-variant could be created if Omicron and Delta infect someone at the same time, one of Moderna's bosses has warned. Covid infections normally only involve one mutant strain, but in extremely rare cases two can strike at the same time. If these also infect the same cell, they may be able to swap DNA and combine to make a new version of the virus. Dr Paul Burton, the vaccine maker's chief medical officer, warned the high numbers of Delta and Omicron cases currently circulating in Britain made this more likely.(Snip)Researchers have warned that these events, scientifically called 'recombination events', are possible but they require

The husband of U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg appears less than enthusiastic about having to repay his student loans.
Chasten Buttigieg, who recently became a father to newborn twins with the transportation secretary, posted a screenshot on Instagram Saturday of a notification that his student loan relief from the COVID-19 pandemic will expire on January 31, 2022.
"These are the guys who complained that they couldn’t afford rent in DC on Pete’s $220K salary (and all their money from writing books)," Republican strategist Matt Whitlock commented. "A good reminder that the left’s ‘cancel student loan debt’ goal would overwhelmingly help financially comfortable people."

Vice President Kamala Harris said in an interview that “women will die” if the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) overturns landmark ruling Roe v. Wade. Currently, the Court is weighing a case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which pertains to a 15-week abortion ban in Mississippi. The outcome of Dobbs could have direct implications on Roe.
In an interview published Sunday with the San Francisco Chronicle, Harris said that efforts for SCOTUS to curtail abortion could result in women dying, adding that she’s not “alarmist” or “extreme” by suggesting that.
“I don’t mean to sound alarmist, I mean this: Women will die,” Harris said in the interview.
Pete Buttigieg is a lazy, ineffectual empty suit with a sonorous voice. His "husband" (a term I put in quotations because I will forever believe that marriage is a heterosexual institution) is even worse. This useless degree jockey put out a tweet on Sunday making it clear that he feels it's an imposition that he should be called upon to repay his student loans. That's bad. What's really bad is when you discover what those loans were for and what he's done with himself since school. Chasten received a notice telling him that Joe Biden was finally ending the COVID moratorium on repaying student loans.
Only forty-six percent of Americans now think Old Joe Biden is “mentally fit” to be president of the United States, and Jill Biden is not happy. In a portion released Thursday of a CBS Sunday Morning interview that will run this weekend, CBS’s Rita Braver noted that “quite a few Americans have some questions about the president’s current mental fitness.” The winsome Dr. Jill snapped back, “I think that’s ridiculous.” Why, of course it is. It’s all just right-wing calumny, that’s all. He is fighting a stutter! How could anyone possibly look at Joe Biden and think anything but That man is sharp as a tack? Well, let’s look at
The alliance of mainstream Democrats with communism is becoming obvious. I am so old that I can remember when embracing the Communist Party was a political death sentence.

The Connecticut People’s World Committee presented its annual Amistad Awards on Saturday to mark the 102nd anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party USA, with awards being presented to Sen. Julie Kushner, D-Danbury, Pastor Rodney Wade of Waterbury and SEIU activist Azucena Santiago.

The House's select committee on the January 6 Capitol attack voted 9-0 to hold Mark Meadows in contempt of Congress. The Monday night vote sets up a full House vote later this week, which if passed, would refer the matter to the Department of Justice. Prior to the vote, the committee members laid out their case against the ex-White House chief of staff, who was at former President Donald Trump's side during the January 6th insurrection. Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Schiff read text messages to Meadows from Donald Trump Jr., Fox News host and GOP lawmakers,
The Biden administration is preparing for an explosion of Omicron cases that they believe will result in a flood of sick Americans going into the already overburdened hospital system. 'Everything points to a large wave. A large wave is coming,' a senior administration official in President Joe Biden's White House told Axios. The official, however, expressed hope the cases wouldn't be as severe as previous COVID variants including Delta as the White House continues to push booster shots as the best protection. 'It will be fast. It won't be as severe, but regrettably, there will be plenty of hospitalizations,' the person said. Omicron now makes up three per cent
Happy Tuesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Fortune favors the brave but luck still finds its fair share of stupid people.
This long road trip is about to come to an end. I shall soon be heading back to my beloved desert to spend about 14 hours a day on a bike in order to deal with all of the carbohydrates consumed during my time away. Seriously, I should probably avoid beer until either Joe Biden or Kamala Harris are out of office.
Speaking of Democrats who really bother me, we have certainly been getting a faceful of Hillary Clinton in recent weeks.
