Biden was clearing student loan debt. But he was old.
The Trump administration said on Tuesday that it will begin garnishing the wages of student loan borrowers who are in default early next year.
Student loan borrowers in default may see wages garnished in 2026
Millions of borrowers are considered in default, meaning they are 270 days past due on their payments. The department must give borrowers 30 days notice before their wages can be garnished.

Gift givers think it’s the ultimate faux pas. But research suggests that those on the receiving end don’t mind nearly as much as we fear.

the president is not popular. the civil society-based opposition is very real. the vibes and stories out there are not appreciably different than 2018; it’s the media environment that has decidedly shifted/balkanized.
