BREAKING: Trump administration to forgive student loans for millions of borrowers, per Department of Education



UPDATE:
To be fair, it’s being reported that this was essentially court ordered as the administration lost a law suit opposing.
 
It's over 2 hours long and I'm not a Tucker fan, so no, I did not watch it... but I'm a bit confused... you were replying to this silly cartoon I posted re alleged Trump DOJ weaponization...

Not sure what this video or the comments have to do with that? I'm pretty dense sometimes though, so who knows what I'm missing :)
Missing? I assume then you watched this follow up...

a long one, so far enjoying the candor

 
People seem to think these countries are just writing us checks because they love Trump? I dunno.

He’s using tariffs and strongarm tactics on allies, literal extortion, not great long term relationship building to say the least.

Just about every one of these “deals” falls apart when you understand they’re being stretched way past his time remaining in office and/or are “commitments” without hard plans.

They’re telling him what he wants to hear to prevent further damage

S Korea’s total GDP is only $1.7 Trillion

Kim explained that $200 billion will be paid in cash and $150 billion will come through shipbuilding cooperation, handled by South Korean shipbuilding companies. The cash portion will not be paid all at once.

Instead, the investment will be spread out over several years with a limit of $20 billion per year, a move designed to prevent shocks to South Korea’s foreign-exchange market, which was Seoul’s biggest concern when Trump originally pushed for $350 billion in immediate payment.

Well when you openly tell 1/2 the country they suck on a daily basis, I can see how they might be a little agitated.

Yep same as MSM and traditional media, just smaller $ :rofl:

The campaigns are pretty easy to spot actually. If youve been on just this past year two blatantly obvious ones come to mind: the anti-Sig 320 campaign and the Israeli one. A certain foreign PM is on video with two dozen “influencers” laying it out, $7000 per post
