The US Department of Education resumed collecting on defaulted student loans on Monday. More than five million borrowers are currently in default, and that total could swell to roughly ten million borrowers within a few months, according to the Trumpf junta.

Three people were killed and five wounded after a fight broke out during an event described as a "concert/car show" at El Camaron Gigante, a steak and seafood restaurant in Glendale, AZ, ten miles northwest of Phoenix. Around 300 people were in attendance at the outdoor venue when a dispute between two groups led to a firefight. No arrests have been made and police are searching for suspects. In an average year, 1,290 people die and 2,125 are wounded by guns in Arizona. In 2022, 48,000 Americans were killed by firearm violence. These are wartime casualty figures. To save lives, state governors might wish to deploy US Army National Guard medics to the hotspots of mass shootings depicted below to triage victims of these urban skirmishes. read more

The National Intelligence Council (NIC) released a declassified and slightly redacted report stating that US intelligence agencies do not assess Venezuela president Nicolas Maduro controls Tren de Aragua, a criminal gang. This determination contradicts Trumpf's assertion when he invoked the "Alien Enemies Act" to deport Venezuelans or other undesirables. read more

Witnesses said they saw the suspect vandalizing Waziri's car, and then the fight broke out. After the fight ended, the shooter retrieved his gun and fatally shot Waziri several times. Although the suspect was arrested, the DA declined to press charges. read more

These are similar arguments the racists used in 1947 to keep the military segregated: shepherdexpress.com

The late US Senator John McCain (R-AZ) used the argument against LGBTQs in the US military: "Now is not a good time."

So, when is a good time?

Drudgers should stop wasting time arguing the issue with obstinate dinosaurs who will only refute them with jejune or cliched talking points.

Here's what the humanitarian looks like: 1a-1791.com

You wonder how her child will turn up as an adult.
