Bill would let teachers jointly apply for debt relief programs | WOODTV.com"KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) — Teachers struggling to pay their student loans as they work in the classroom may be able to get more help from a bill in Washington.
If passed, legislation introduced by U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-MI, called the Teacher Debt Relief Act, would allow teachers to jointly apply for two federal loan forgiveness programs.
If passed, legislation introduced by U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-MI, called the Teacher Debt Relief Act, would allow teachers to jointly apply for two federal loan forgiveness programs.
- Currently, select teachers who have worked for at least five years can qualify for up to $17,500 of relief under the Teacher Loan Forgiveness Program. But the Higher Education Act of 1965, a federal law, prevents them from also applying for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program at the same time. This means teachers still have to make payments for 10 more years to qualify for full federal relief under the latter program.
- If the Teacher Debt Relief Act passes, changes to the Higher Education Act of 1965 would remove that barrier...

'Explosive' testimony: 'Millions' to Bidens 'because Joe Biden was in high office':
"For nearly four years, I have tried to tell the American people the truth about serious corruption at the very top of their government," he said.
"The Chinese Communist Party through its surrogate, China Energy Company Limited, or 'CEFC' — a CCP-linked Chinese energy conglomerate — successfully sought to infiltrate and compromise Joe Biden and the Obama-Biden White House," he charged.

The CIA installed the current Ukrainian regime in 2014. Cynical Publius @CynicalPublius
- Certain things are becoming increasingly obvious:
1. The CIA installed the current Ukrainian regime in 2014.
2. Russia and Ukraine are both ruled by corrupt, fascist oligarchies. Neither is noble or worthy of American blood and treasure.
3. The divisions and grievances between Russia and Ukraine go back thousands of years.
4. Ukraine is the money-laundering capitol of the Western world...
When you add up these facts, the only logical conclusion that can be drawn is that Zelensky and the Ukrainian oligarchs are blackmailing the powerful families of Western governance with information about their money-laundering activities, and will publicly release such information unless they get what they want...

Attacks against NYPD on pace to reach record-breaking levels, fueled by anti-cop rhetoric and woke policies: Report | Blaze Media:

WATCH: Conservative Writer Mollie Hemingway Tells Congress What's Wrong With Our Elections (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by Mike LaChance"...At the end of her testimony, she called out Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook for their election interference.
The Federalist has details:
...“We have allowed the private takeover of government election offices by partisan oligarchs and their armies of activists who use those offices and their authorities to tilt the election toward favored candidates,” she said…
“The situation is so absurd that we have presidential and gubernatorial debates weeks after some people have already voted,” Hemingway noted.
Mail-in voting specifically, Hemingway said, forces the crux of voting to begin months before Election Day.
“Instead of having full security and a verifiable chain of custody for ballots being issued, cast, and counted, we flooded addresses across the country with tens of millions of unsupervised mail-in ballots months ahead of elections frequently to locations from which voters, if they’re even alive, have long since moved, instead of having election administration that is rigorously nonpartisan and impartial under the law,” she explained.

Bobulinski: Biden Had 'Plausible Deniability' While Compromised by CEFC
Bobulinski: Biden Had 'Plausible Deniability' While Compromised by CEFC:
President Joe Biden maintained “plausible deniability” while his family business raked in millions from several foreign entities, including CEFC China Energy Co., which compromised the president, former Biden family business partner Tony Bobulinski told the House impeachment inquiry on Tuesday.
Bobulinski’s testimony is significant because he met Joe Biden in the lobby of the Beverly Hilton Hotel in May 2017 to discuss business with CEFC, an entity closely linked to the Chinese Communist Party. Bobulinski is also the whistleblower who confirmed the infamous message about a stake of “10 held by H for the big guy,” as referring to Joe Biden.
