×The U.S. student debt crisis impacts over 40 million Americans, with $1.7 trillion in student loans still owed, most to the federal government. The Biden administration has forgiven $127 billion in debt through programs like public service loan forgiveness, income-driven repayment plans, and aid for students defrauded by private colleges. Concerns arise about loan forgiveness fairness and its impact on personal responsibility. Proposed solutions include ending federal student loans and creating merit-based scholarships for STEM fields. These reforms aim to reduce student debt, promote responsible borrowing, and prepare graduates for high-demand careers, easing the financial strain on younger generations. How do you think the Trump Administration will handle the issue of rising student loan debt? Connect with us: What are your thoughts on this episode?

In this 3-part episode, Bruce reacts to national news headlines regarding Trump's executive orders at the southern border. We discuss border patrol, illegal immigration, and the designations of cartels and criminal networks as foreign terrorist organizations. Lastly, we cover what seems to be one of the most controversial decisions made by president Donald J. Trump: his plan to end birthright citizenship. Could there be justifiable rationale behind these choices, or are we undoing our nation's long-standing DNA and right for every man and woman to pursue happiness and self-reliance?
