And he still doesn’t know who’s grassing on him from the inside.

I believe that’s what the opposition are hoping too.

They’ll be along shortly bleating about the redactions.

Appalling but predicted outcome of the Republican’s assault on women’s right to abortion.

Trump is very clearly now on Indictment watch.

I think that’s actually an example of influence buying.

But they don’t insist on pants being zipped up and they are awfully kind to the pool boy.

So you don’t understand hypocrisy.

Most people holding student debt ate nowhere near your figure of $100K. https://www.forbes.com/advisor/student-loans/average-student-loan-statistics/ https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/08/24/fact-sheet-president-biden-announces-student-loan-relief-for-borrowers-who-need-it-most/

I had early observed the new energy price cap would kick in a few short weeks after the newly selected PM takes office. While that remains the case, the nation has just been given a heads up on what the new price cap will be. This is sure to get the attention of those already struggling to pay their bills, but an 80% increase, while making things worse for the poor, will drive very many more into poverty. Somebody is going to need some new economic policies to deal with this: https://www.theguardian.com/money/2022/aug/26/ofgem-raises-energy-price-cap-to-3549

Because Democrats are not accepting loan relief themselves while at the same time hypocritically bleating about others getting some loan relief.

Nine year olds are not ‘things’ either. Where’s your humanity?!

Why does it bother you? Myself, I read about this tragedy and have nothing but sympathy for the victim and he bereaved family. I don’t have the slightest urge to participate in pedantry, but some can’t help themselves. Sad.

The failures of the British Police are frequently discussed, with links to factual reporting, here on this forum. Perhaps you missed those discussions. What you should not miss is the age old wisdom that the first step to fixing a problem is recognizing the problem. Criticism of the police is a step in the direction of fixing the police. Or shall we all pretend we live in some idyllic yesteryear that never actually existed.

I think your pedantry got the better of your human decency.

A drop in the ocean. https://datalab.usaspending.gov/americas-finance-guide/spending/

How is this at all relevant to the Federal Government forgiving student loans? The lender is the Federal Government, or did you miss that bit?

You obviously have no idea about college fees in the US.

Like Hyperbole ?!

That could be said of every single Government spending program. This one helps happens to help a very large number of ordinary working Americans. That’s a very welcome step in the right direction.

A loan is a loan, a loan forgiveness is a loan forgiveness. I’m absolutely sure there were Democrats who received forgiveness of PPP loans, but they are not engaging in the hypocrisy of bleating about others getting their loans forgiven after having accepted their own loans forgiven. It’s the shameless hypocrisy of it all.

It would be interesting to compare your capped and heavily subsidized UK university tuition fees with those US students face, but that would be a different thread.

Why does that matter? People who had hundreds of thousands of dollars, some millions of dollars of PPP loans forgiven are ranting against help being given to ordinary Americans who hold Federal student debts. It’s the two faced hypocrisy of it all.

Lots of Graduates vote Republican. This program is aimed at all individuals holding Federal student who have incomes below $125,000 per annum. $125,000 per year, or $250,000 per household per year is far from ’rich’.
