Don’t need an article as it’s never going to happen. Free handouts to Trump’s billionaire buddies is what’s on the menu now.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

lol
The PSLF is about to go back into a state where they deny as many applications as possible for any reason they can find, just like they did when borrowers first became eligible in 2017 under Trump's Secretary of Ed.
The executive discretion derived relief programs under suit are gone immediately.
The new bankruptcy guidelines that have dramitically improved access to relief that way are gone too.
If you're buried in student loan debt, prepare to have another truck dumped on you.
Yeah, but Trump makes me feel better about the economy /s
I would not be in the least not surprised if Trump and co renewed the forgiven loans and added interest.
That's probably the only thing I can't really imagine.
has not said how he would handle the mounting debt in another White House term.
Yes he has. By dumping more debt on them. He's already stated his plans to reinstate the debt and add retroactive interest. Tarriffs are going to make prices skyrocket, and then God knows what Elon Musk is going to come up with, but even he said it wasn't going to be good.
Our children will be paying for all of this for decades to come.
He's already stated his plans to reinstate the debt and add retroactive interest.
When and where did he say that?
Elon's going to get a shot at balancing the government's budget. And I'm sure his approach will be similar to the way he handled Tesla's budget. You know, gotta make deep cuts and lay off as many people as possible, while granting himself a bonus large enough to cover those jobs for decades.
