AFT stood up to the Trump administration when it refused to follow the law & denied borrowers the relief they were owed - and we won. We won’t stop fighting until college is affordable & taking out a student loan doesn’t trap borrowers in a cycle of debt. www.aft.org/press-releas...

So, per reporting from Zeteo’s Asawin Suebsaeng, in today’s new ‘First Draft’ newsletter, Trump tried to get a newly-divorced Russ Vought, Project 2025 architect & now budget chief, laid at Mar-a-Lago.

The details are, ahem, as crude as you’d expect from Trump.

By law the Republicans were required to have a budget for the new fiscal year in place on September 30th.

Anyone seen the budget? Are they are here in DC working on one?

Don't we think media, commentators should be asking Rs where their budget is? Do they intend to actually create one?
