Donald Trump Jr. is not his father. His dad is indeed one-of-a-kind. But there are certain traits and features that have clearly been passed down from Trump the elder, particularly when it comes to their personalities. One of the more endearing qualities in both men is their plainspokenness. They don’t pull any punches, especially when it comes to issues and politicians about which they are passionate. Such was the case with Trump the younger when he weighed in on a hot-button topic recently, as reported by the Washington Post on Sunday. The subject was the Biden Administration’s flirtation with so-called “student loan forgiveness,” and Don Jr. didn’t hold back:

College graduation season is in full swing and many graduates are leaving school with major debt from student loans. President Biden has promised to help with loan forgiveness. Those who received student loans signed a contract to repay the loan with interest. If these loans are forgiven and the taxpayers are stuck with the bill, why shouldn't my GI Bill mortgage be forgiven? Or my government sponsored Small business loan, or any other government sponsored loan? Should those of us who paid off their student loans, or those of their children, expect a refund check? And these loans will be paid for by printing more worthless money further fueling inflation which is currently at a 40 year high due to government policy and is now admittedly no longer transitory.

This idea keeps getting floated yet appears to be going nowhere. I get the impression that even the Dims have some adults in the room who keep shooting this proposal down while its proponents use the idea to repeatedly tease younger debt-ridden Dem children.

I think the real issue with loan forgiveness is a windfall to the lenders, especially for loans in default which have probably accumulated default interest and fees equal to the original loan amount. Schmoe took very good care of big banks all his venal and grimy political life. That’s no doubt why credit card debt specifies Delaware law. Of course now he’s a commy aka “progressive.” This issue allows him to act in both roles.

To #3: Wrong, the democrats' every policy decision and program demonstrate, without question, that there are zero adults in their midst...they are 100% composed of ideological fanatics, whose deviant perspectives may vary, but which are all so far left it'll put a crick in your neck just to look at them. Just name the issue, and then just shake your head at its looming (or accomplished) disaster: Foreign policy (Afghanistan, Iran, China, Russia/Ukraine, etc) Security (continuing weaponization of FBI/DOJ/CIA/etc against conservative Americans) Health (continuing mindless promotion of a vaccine that not only doesn't work, but increase deaths from all causes) Immigration (10,000 new illegals every day) Economy (highest inflation/gasoline/food prices in 40 years, roaming shortages, etc) Social Justice (institutionalized racism at every level of govt, education, business, etc) Environment (insane push to electric cars that cannot ever work...not ever, because every major requirement is a non-starter). Energy (insane push to unworkable windmills and solar cells, while obstructing domestic oil production/transportation/etc).

Don't call it Student Loan Forgiveness, call it Student Debt Transfer, which is what it is. The debt will be transferred from those who incurred it and promised to pay it back to those who did not.

The Democrats created the problem they are now looking to excuse, which is typical Democrat scheme. I don't believe the IRS would view loan forgiveness as anything but a taxable benefit, which puts a new burden on those they are attempting to "help". About the only loan forgiveness I would support would be for teachers, and those who teach in underprivileged neighborhoods. They'd have to been teaching a minimum of 3 years, and have to continue for another 3 years. It would be something that could assist States and Cities attract teachers and to supplement the salaries. You'd put the account on hold while this would be developing, so the person with the loan would not have a payment during that time period. It's narrow and focused with the intent to help provide students and parents teachers they may not normally attract.

For two solid weeks we have been hearing nothing but about the poor, struggling, women with children who are holding down two jobs to support them and how catastrophic it would be if abortion was denied them. Right? Well, where are those same screeching pro-aborts who care, oh so much, about poor women when these very same poor women will be forced to have money taken from them to pay the tuition for some prep educated Ivy League puke?

For those who scoff that Florida’s new education law bans “non-existent” gender indoctrination, let the tale of Fairfax County, Virginia serve as a wake-up call. Fairfax County’s school board has long prided itself on leading the way for the nation in cutting-edge education policy and curriculum. As the tenth-largest district in the nation, it holds disproportionate sway over other school boards. In 2015, the Fairfax school board blindsided parents with changes to its non-discrimination policy, followed by a sweeping expansion of the sex-ed curriculum and new rules governing student offenses and penalties.

Can you imagine living in mortal fear of a 90-year-old man who preaches peace and love? If so, you know what it is like to be a senior member of the Chinese Communist Party. On Wednesday, communist authorities in Hong Kong arrested Cardinal Joseph Zen on a phony “national security” charge. Zen’s immediate offense was his alleged involvement in a dissolved fund to defend those harmed by the ruthless crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong. His real crime is his unwillingness to overlook Beijing’s broken promises about establishing democracy with universal suffrage in Hong Kong—a promise it made to get the former colony back from the gullible British.

Next month, Alaskans will vote in a special primary election for the state’s single congressional seat, left vacant by the death of Republican Rep. Don Young in March. Young, the longest-serving Republican in the history of the U.S. House, was Alaska’s sole congressman for 49 years, so the election to replace him is in some ways an historic event for the state. But it’s also historic in another way: it will be Alaska’s first ever statewide mail-in primary election. That is, there will be no in-person voting at all. Every single voter on the state’s bloated and error-riddled voter rolls was automatically mailed a blank ballot.

Florida’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis is on a roll. Since his initial gubernatorial campaign four years ago, DeSantis has gone from an under-the-radar Congressman as one of 435 members of the House of Representatives to one of the most prominent figures on the American political stage. With the possible exception of Donald Trump, there is no one with a higher trajectory and no one who strikes fear in the hearts of the left quite like Ron DeSantis. Life is good if you’re Ron DeSantis, and it only seems to be getting better.

Americans who would sacrifice anything to protect their children may be surprised to learn that their inclination is a rather modern phenomenon. For most of human history, the most dangerous period of any person’s life was childhood. Only if a newborn survived the first decade of disease, warfare, hunger, and all the other mundane threats to ordinary human existence would the survivor gain any type of social recognition. O.M. Bakke explores this reality in his book, “When Children Became People: The Birth of Childhood in Early Christianity.”

In an apparent homage to George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984” — one the rest of us realize is a pointed political allegory but the Biden administration apparently views as a handbook — the Biden White House is establishing a Disinformation Governance Board. Yes, you read that correctly. The government is going to decide what’s true and what’s false, and punish disseminators accordingly. The bureaucrats who run the Department of Homeland security, where this board will be housed, are going to be parsing fact from fiction, obviously to keep us all safe from the scourge of independent judgment and thought.

A common narrative from anti-gun activists asserts that more guns equal more crime. But those of us who own guns have known this storyline to be false all along. It never made sense, and now we have data to prove it. According to a recent study by the National Bureau of Economic Research, there is a direct correlation between gun ownership and crime, but that correlation doesn’t align with the storyline from the “guns are bad” crowd. In fact, shocker… it shows just the opposite. The NBER analysis used Tennessee’s database for handgun carry permit holders, and then cross-referenced that data with crime statistics in those zip codes.

For most leftists, particularly those who reside in the echo chamber of the mainstream media and under the protection of Big Tech censorship, self-awareness has never been a key component of their skill set. The mindset apparently operates something like this: I’m wonderful, only my opinions matter, all criticisms of me and my work are ill-founded. And for that reason, the ends justify their means, no matter how reprehensible those means may be. Last week, Washington Post reporter (please, let’s stop calling her a journalist) Taylor Lorenz was the subject of widespread mockery as she was called out for some of the most outrageous media hypocrisy

The company at the center of a baby formula crisis could face criminal charges, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday, as Democrats considered new government controls over the baby formula industry. “I think there might be a need for indictment,” said Mrs. Pelosi, who has realigned the House agenda to address a baby formula shortage. Democrats are also considering legislation that would give the federal government more control over the supply and distribution of formula, particularly when shortages arise. The plan would require formula companies to report inventory to the Food and Drug Administration, which could then move supplies from one state to another to fill empty shelves.
