Trump looks to kill student loan forgiveness program

Tuesday, 11 February 2020 12:43

Trump to kill student debt forgiveness program

As student debt continues to climb, President Donald Trump on Monday released a budget for 2021 that would slash many of the programs aimed at helping borrowers.

Student loan spending would be cut by $170 billion in Trump’s plan, titled “A Budget for America’s Future.” The reductions include “sensible annual and lifetime loan limits” for graduate students and parents and the end to subsidized loans, in which the government covers the interest for borrowers who are still in school or experiencing economic hardship.

It would also reduce the number of repayment options for borrowers and nix the popular, if challenged, public service loan forgiveness program.

Thomas Friedman: Mike Pompeo: Last in His Class at West Point in Integrity

Monday, 18 November 2019 17:41

It seems like every story you read about Secretary of State Mike Pompeo always includes the sentence that he graduated “first in his class” from West Point. That is not a small achievement. But it is even more impressive in Pompeo’s case when you consider that he finished No. 1 even though he must have flunked all his courses on ethics and leadership. I guess he was really good in math.

I say that because Pompeo has just violated one of the cardinal rules of American military ethics and command: You look out for your soldiers, you don’t leave your wounded on the battlefield and you certainly don’t stand mute when you know a junior officer is being railroaded by a more senior commander, if not outright shot in her back.

The classes on ethics and leadership at West Point would have taught all of that. I can only assume Pompeo failed or skipped them all when you observe his cowardly, slimy behavior as the leader of the State Department. I would never, ever, ever want to be in a trench with that man. Attention all U.S. diplomats: Watch your own backs, because Pompeo won’t.

Donald Trump: ‘We’re building a wall in Colorado’

Thursday, 24 October 2019 12:48

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that a wall is being built in Colorado.

"And we're building a wall on the border of New Mexico. And we’re building a wall in Colorado. We’re building a beautiful wall. A big one that really works — that you can’t get over, you can’t get under,” Trump said during a speech at the Shale Insight Conference in Pittsburgh.

He continued, “And we’re building a wall in Texas. And we’re not building a wall in Kansas but they get the benefit of the walls that we just mentioned. And Louisiana's incredible.”

Colorado is not positioned along the U.S. southern border, where Trump has focused his desire for a physical barrier, and there have been no reports of plans to construct a border wall in the state. A portion of the border wall is being built along the Colorado River in Arizona.

TVNL Comment: No, he wasn't kidding. He's just freaking dumb.

Trump botches a boast about giving away his presidential salary

Monday, 21 October 2019 15:58

Trump botches boast about giving up salary.

Donald Trump boasted on Monday that he's the only other president besides George Washington to forgo his paycheck — but history is not on his side.

“I give away my presidential salary,” Trump told reporters at a gathering of his Cabinet. “They say no other president has done it. I'm surprised, to be honest with you. They say George Washington may have been the only other president to do that. See whether or not Obama gave up his salary. See whether or not all of the other of your favorites, your other favorites gave up their salary. The answer is no.”

TVNL Comment: Another dumb lie. What a shock!

Rick Perry won’t comply with subpoena in impeachment probe

Saturday, 19 October 2019 19:30

Rick Perry will not comply with subpoena

Energy Secretary Rick Perry is refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena seeking a host of records related to his actions in Ukraine at the heart of Congress’ ongoing impeachment inquiry.

Perry becomes the latest official in President Donald Trump’s administration to refuse to turn over documents, heightening the stakes for the Energy chief who announced his intention to resign from the administration earlier this week.

In a letter to the committees Friday, a senior DOE official reiterated the White House's objection to the impeachment probe as illegitimate because the House has not formally voted on a resolution to open an inquiry.

Axios: Trump pins Ukraine call on Energy Secretary Rick Perry

Saturday, 05 October 2019 21:38

President Trump told House Republicans that he made his now infamous phone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the urging of Energy Secretary Rick Perry — a call Trump claimed he didn’t even want to make.

Behind the scenes: Trump made these comments during a conference call with House members on Friday, according to 3 sources on the call.

Per the sources, Trump rattled off the same things he has been saying publicly — that his call with Zelensky was "perfect"and he did nothing wrong.
But he then threw Perry into the mix and said something to the effect of: "Not a lot of people know this but, I didn't even want to make the call. The only reason I made the call was because Rick asked me to. Something about an LNG [liquified natural gas] plant," one source said, recalling the president's comments. 2 other sources confirmed the first source's recollection.

Impeachment inquiry: Vice President Mike Pence gets document request from House Democrats

Friday, 04 October 2019 16:37

Mike Penceasked for documents by House Committee

House Democrats on Friday asked Vice President Mike Pence to turn over a host of documents by Oct. 15 as part of their impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.

The Democrats said in their letter to Pence that failure to comply will be evidence of obstruction of the House’s impeachment inquiry and “may be used as an adverse inference against you and the president.”

The chairmen of the House committees leading the investigation said they're investigating the extent to which Trump "jeopardized national security by pressing Ukraine to interfere with our 2020 election and by withholding security assistance provided by Congress to help Ukraine counter Russian aggression, as well as any efforts to cover up these matters."
