There is a lot of whining because the Supremes blocked the vote buying college loan forgiveness scheme. Dozens of excuses for not repaying the loans have been offered. None of them justify using public funds to pay for non-serious students taking non-serious courses. All of this could have been avoided by vetting the colleges, the courses of study, the students' progress toward graduation and the need for aid.

No one will be bothered enough to read decisions. My next door app is on fire over 303 CREATIVE LLC ET AL. v. ELENIS ET AL. The consensus is LGBTQ is doomed. 🤦♀️. You can’t tell them anything.
Several columns have been posted now by The Racket News. all proclaiming "victory" for conservatives. Celebrate while you can; i guess, but the real question for me is...what the heck is a conservative these days?
All of which sent me scurrying about the internet looking for articles defining what conservatism is. There's lots of good stuff out there, much of crafted by George Will. The more i read, the more i'm scratching my head; "how does any of this fit the modern day conservative?
Because most of what i read can be traced back to his lament about "populism" replacing conservatism. These words ring out loud and clear: "Populism is the belief in the direct translation of public impulses, public passions. Passion was the great problem for the American Founders,” Will points out.
George Will and the Supreme Court aside, what are "conservatives" these days? Are they a function of their beliefs or are the politicians they elect representative of their beliefs? And while that's an unfair question for some of you who may not be fond of trump et al, it is the reality of a party who is trapped in a maize of miscreants and malcontents who hate the norms most of us embrace.
It's almost like statements about religious freedom being under attack are just basic fearmongering.
