President Joe Biden announced new rules on July 31 that make millions more borrowers eligible for student loan debt relief.

Norah O’Donnell, anchor and managing editor of CBS Evening News, announced on Tuesday she is stepping down from her current role.
“After this year’s election, I’ve decided I will be leaving my role as anchor and managing editor of the CBS Evening News to take on a new position at the network,” O’Donnell wrote in a letter shared with her colleagues.
O’Donnell emphasized her gratitude for the past five years with the Evening News team. She recalled achieving many milestones with them, including earning Emmy, Murrow, and DuPont awards, anchoring through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, and interviewing Pope Francis.
Illegal aliens do not need to vote (per se’), they only need to exist in a captured state database as physical persons. Their personage is then shifted to voter rolls, that then generate ballots.
Any state or federal system that links a physical identity to the secretary of state voter rolls is good. Any system, like the USPS postal change of address system, that would remove physical identities from the state voter rolls is not useful. The goal is to maximize the number of systems that generate registration, that eventually generates ballots.
Beyond the Driver’s License/State ID issue (motor-voter), it’s everything. Sign up for public assistance, get registered
The t*t-for-tat will take place in the open, yet few will pay attention. We do.
You have to take this announcement in full context: (1) Sanctions against Russia failed. (2) NATO expanded, creating more provocation. (3) NATO pledged Ukraine NATO membership. (4) Biden then pledged new long-range missiles will be located in Germany in 2026 able to reach all of Russia. (5) Russia sailed a nuclear submarine into Cuba; and (6) Yesterday, Vladimir Putin pledged to put nuclear weapons close to the USA (likely Cuba) if Biden puts long-range missiles in Germany.
OK, that’s the escalation timeline. That’s the lead up to this next announcement.
Former Attorney General Bill Barr did not improperly pressure prosecutors to reduce sentencing recommendations for political activist Roger Stone, according to a new government watchdog report. The exoneration of Barr came more than four years after a deluge of media reports alleging wrongdoing.
However, J.P. Cooney, a Justice Department official now serving as Special Counsel Jack Smith’s top deputy, cultivated a politically toxic environment, disseminated baseless conspiracy theories about Trump and his political appointees, and engaged in unprofessional conduct as he oversaw the team making sentencing recommendations, according to the same report.
The Twilight Zone predicted this

A reader pointing to the anti-Semitic riots in Washington by the spoiled brats of socialism last week made a reference to Billy Mumy and the Twilight Zone episode, It’s A Good Life.
In it, Mumy plays an 8-year-old boy named Anthony whose telepathic powers terrorize his small town in Ohio.
Anthony had not reached the age of reason, which is why he used his supernatural powers capriciously. He did not realize his actions had consequences. This led to death and destruction with the boy sending people who think a bad thought about him to the cornfield.
In popular lingo young people simply say, “that tracks.” It’s a quick way of saying, new information makes sense with pre-existing information.
Investigative journalist Seymour Hersch writes on his substack [SEE HERE], an article outlying how his sources in Washington DC and the White House have confirmed to him that former President Barack Obama was the impetus to push Joe Biden out of the 2024 presidential race.Seymour Hersh says President Obama was “deeply involved” with the alleged coup and called Joe Biden after his “incident” in Las Vegas, which, from all outward appearances, looks like a major slip and fall – with a significant hit to the head.

What was witnessed in the opening ceremony for the Olympics in Paris was beyond grotesque. Physical evil manifesting and parading in front of the world as if Baal was the organizer of the events. *snip)
What I will say is that a faceless demon riding a pale horse down the river Siene, to hand the Olympic flag to a team of demons who hoisted it “upside down” sounds exactly like the culture French President Emmanuel Macron has created for his nation.
The opening ceremony kicked off at 7:30 p.m. local time (1:30 p.m. ET) on Friday after suspected acts of sabotage targeting France’s high-speed rail network.Canadian singer Celine Dion performs on the Eiffel Tower during the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games
“Fight, Fight, Fight!” Those were the last words from a wounded President Trump before he was rushed from the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Kamala chose black

It’s too bad James Whitmore isn’t around to play Kamala Harris in her inevitable bio-flick on Netflix. He played the titular character in Black Like Me, a 1964 movie about a white reporter who dons blackface to experience racial prejudice. (snip)People say Kamala is not too bright but in choosing to emphasize her Jamaican roots over her Indian-American roots, she was headed on the road to the vice presidency and maybe the presidency.
Here we go, the manufacturing of Madame President continues. As if the last four days were not enough pop culture to elevate Kamala Harris into the beloved Megan Markle position, here comes Barack and Michelle Obama. (snip)The 2024 U.S. presidential election is going to come down to whether the American public remain gullible to the constructs of the “fundamental change” crew. Unfortunately, there are many, even some on the right-leaning conservative side, who do not see how the Kamala “BRAT” operation is simply the end game in a process that started back in 2020.

Forty-six seconds. That was the sum total of time a female Italian boxer lasted in the ring at the Paris Olympics before she retired from a bout against against an Algerian fighter caught in an eligibility furore.
Twenty-five-year-old Imane Khalif was cleared to compete at the 2024 Olympics having earlier failed an unspecified testosterone level test. The contest Thursday between the mismatched pugilists shone fresh light on the controversy about athletes with abnormally high testosterone levels or other male characteristics being allowed to enter women’s sporting categories.
Critics of Vice President Kamala Harris claim she was only picked to be President Joe Biden’s running mate because of her race and the left’s goal of checking its DEI boxes.
Former President Donald Trump pointed just that out to a crowd during the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).
"I've known her for a long time, indirectly, not directly… and she was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage," Trump said. "I didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black. And now she wants to be known as Black.
PARIS – Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who failed a gender eligibility test last year, won her opening bout at the Paris Olympics in just 46 seconds on Thursday against her distraught opponent.
Khelif advanced to the quarterfinals of the women's 66kg category after unloading two strong punches on Angela Carini, who shrugged off attempts by the Algerian to shake her hand and collapsed to her knees in floods of tears.
An Italian coach said Carini had suffered a badly hurt nose and the official decision was listed as an abandonment.
Khelif and Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting, who fights on Friday at 57kg, were disqualified from the world championships
This is a very significant policy proposal. President Trump is supporting a position that Seniors should not pay taxes on Social Security income.This comes on the heels of President Trump supported policy that income received from service tips should not be taxed.
Combined, both of these policies would result in massive numbers of middle-class Americans having more money in their bank accounts. The national economic benefits of these two combined policies are extremely significant and could actually offset the financial damage done by Joe Biden.
The timing of this announcement coincides with President Trump visiting Chicago.
SENIORS SHOULD NOT PAY TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY!
Imane Khelif has won her first bout after Italian opponent Angela Carini abandoned their bout after 46 seconds - with the Algerian boxer cleared to compete in the women's event amid an eligibility row. Carini was punched twice by Khelif in the opening round of their women's welterweight bout in Paris. The blows appeared to knock off the Italian boxer's chin strap, with the fighter moving over to her corner. Carini returned to the centre of the ring and abandoned the bout, leading to Khelif being declared as the winner.

Freudian slip?
Vice President Kamala Harris accidentally called herself the “president” Thursday while delivering a eulogy for late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), causing the crowd to go wild as she repeatedly corrected herself.
Harris, standing beside Democratic leaders including Bill and Hillary Clinton, was speaking in Houston about the late congresswoman’s long career in public service. She recalled that Jackson Lee introduced legislation to make Juneteenth – the day marking the end of slavery in the US – a federal holiday.
“Which as a US Senator, I was proud to co-sponsor and then as presi–” Harris said about her role in getting the bill through, before correcting herself.
Former CNN host Don Lemon is suing billionaire Elon Musk and X for abruptly canceling their agreement for Lemon to host a show on the platform.
Lemon filed a complaint Thursday in San Francisco court, accusing X of using Lemon’s stardom to boost the platform’s reputation, and failing to compensate him in accordance with the terms of the deal.
“Contrary to the promises and representations made to Lemon, once Defendants were enriched and gained the benefits of using Lemon’s name, likeness, identity, and reputation, they reneged on their express agreement with Lemon and have failed to compensate him, citing to false pretenses for their breach of the partnership agreement,” the lawsuit reads.
Republicans are just waking up to the horror that they’ve been had.
The Trump campaign seems blindsided by Kamala Harris. Having avoided the ordeal of a primary, Harris dances onto the national scene appearing well-rested and unscathed. In polls, she is already tied with Trump—erasing his sizable lead in just one week.
Scrambling to make sense of what just happened, J.D. Vance has called her extra-democratic appointment a “coup.” He has suggested it cheated voters out of the chance to pick their own nominee. But a “coup” involves regime change. This switcheroo involved none. That’s why you don’t see members of the Biden administration objecting.
US prosecutors have reached a deal with 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the Pentagon said Wednesday, reportedly involving a guilty plea in exchange for avoiding a death penalty trial.
The agreements with Mohammed and two other accused moves their long-running cases toward resolution. These have been bogged down in pre-trial maneuverings for years while the defendants remained held at the Guantanamo Bay military base in Cuba. A Pentagon statement said no details of the deal would be immediately made public at this time, but the New York Times reported

Hasan Yousef Hamdan, 32, and Mohammad Khair Dabous, 28, were released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention despite their immigration status — Hamdan had crossed into the country illegally in April and Dabous had overstayed his student visa and is subject to removal proceedings, law enforcement sources told The Post.
They were arrested on May 3 for trespassing onto the military installation and handed over to ICE officers because of their immigration statuses.
Imprisoned American journalist Evan Gershkovich will be freed from a Russian prison Thursday as part of a prisoner swap with Moscow, according to reports.
Gershkovich will return to the US after spending 16 months in Moscow’s notorious Lefortovo Prison alongside serial killers and other political prisoners, sources told Bloomberg News.
A senior Biden administration also told ABC News that Gershkovich will be released alongside former US Marine Paul Whelan in the extraordinary deal.
The conventional description of the American political system holds that Republicans represent the rich. Democrats, by contrast, are said to represent the “little guy,” including blue-collar workers and low-income minorities. The most Interesting thing about Donald Trump’s foray into politics is that he would like to turn that picture upside down. So maybe this is a good time to ask: Why do people vote the way they do?It’s certainly hard to square the conventional view with the way many sophisticated people vote. Among high-income voters, almost as many identify as Democrat as Republican. In general, the higher the level of education, the more liberal people say they are;
