This is something else. Ghislaine Maxwell just filed for dismissal of her criminal charges because she is one of the unnamed co-conspirators in Epstein's plea deal. Our quick summary.
https://technofog.substack.com/p/ghislaine-maxwell-seeks-dismissal
Ghislaine's Maxwell's argument in one sentence:

"Ms. Maxwell's indictment violates the clear and unqualified terms of the [Epstein non-prosecution agreement] and should therefore be dismissed."
On impeachment. The defenses aren’t just jurisdictional (unconstitutional) or factual (no incitement) but also moral. Refuse to be judged by a jury - the Senate - that tolerates corruption within its own ranks.

New info reveals Special Counsel Mueller’s Team looked at whether current and former member of the Trump admin mishandled classified info.

This was beyond their allowed “scope.” They even looked at Mike Cernovich.

Up for discussion: fixing the student loan problem starts with the cost of higher education.

Should universities should look to themselves as trustees of future generations and thus reduce costs (the public good argument), instead of trying to extract as much money as they can from 18 year olds?
The Biden DOJ is extremely dangerous.

Gov. Cuomo's state was being investigated for nursing home deaths. Cuomo hid the data. And apparently Cuomo was rewarded by Biden's DOJ with a dropped investigation.

We get caught up in the merits of the Trump impeachment defense that we sometimes forget an important point: This is a political prosecution that should be dismissed and disregarded for political reasons.

We don't need to argue jurisdiction or facts, although we can. It's sufficient for us to appeal to political self-interest because the other side is doing the same thing.
Powerful.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and comments on the student loan question (and everything else, really). I reached out to some folks and heard some compelling stories. Y'all are the best 🙏
Interesting developments since the Cuomo leaks, where his aide said the DOJ “dropped” the investigation. NY federal prosecutors may have picked it up after the Civil Division dropped the matter. We shall see.
Been thinking of this for quite some time. Your comments have been informative. Conclusion: The trustees have failed.

Rich colleges extract wealth from students and predatory lenders leave graduates hopeless.

What is the future of a country that rips off the young?

Wise words: Justice Thomas dissenting from the Supreme Court’s refusal to take up the PA election case. The inaction from the Supreme Court will only encourage more abuse.
Since November 3, 2020, we've been told that elections cannot be questioned.

And today the Supreme Court agreed with that premise.

On denying review of the Pennsylvania election cases:
