Breaking Updates Maine Election Official So Desperate to Keep Trump off Ballot She's Appealing Judge's Hold on Decision [Maineâs Democrat secretary of state, Shenna Bellows, is so determined to promote]( âtrust in our free, safe and secure electionsâ that she wants to make sure voters in the state arenât allowed to vote for the leading GOP contender, former President Donald Trump. After Trump appealed Bellows' unilateral decision to keep his name off the Republican primary ballot, Superior Court Judge Michaela Murphy called for a hold on her decision [while the nation waits for the Supreme Court to weigh in on a similar situation]( in Colorado.

[On Friday, they've gone and thumbed their nose once again--](at both the members of the High Court and the American people: President Biden announced Friday that his administration is forgiving $5 billion in student debt for another 74,000 borrowers, marking the latest round of debt cancellation since the Supreme Court voided the president's student loan forgiveness program.[...] [Mr. Biden said that of the borrowers who can receive relief,](nearly 44,000 are teachers, nurses, firefighters and others who are eligible for forgiveness after working 10 years of public service. Almost 30,000 Americans who will have their debt wiped clean have been repaying their loans for at least 20 years, but did not get the relief they earned through income-based plans, the president said. Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said: The Biden-Harris administration has worked relentlessly to fix our country's [broken student loan system and address the needless hurdles and administrative inaccuracies]( that, in the past, kept borrowers from getting the student debt forgiveness they deserved. Let me make sure I'm getting this straight: the Biden folks are fixing a broken system by forcing the rest of us--the American people who didn't promise to repay these loans--to shoulder the burden of higher taxes for years to come.
