I don’t think it should be blind trust it should be broad based index funds with 80% index / 20% bonds like VTI with set dates for buying or selling.
To many shenanigans with a “blind” trust.

Don't think there's a thread for what is happening with Russia/Ukraine yet, but I'm guessing one will be made soon. Especially if this tweet rings true. Let's hope not.

At a Monday press conference, White House press secretary Jen Psaki declined to answer questions about#The Daily Poster’s reporting. Now, an Education Department spokesperson says that despite Biden’s promise, the agency is still reviewing its policy towards intervening in these cases.
In the meantime, the efforts to block debtors’ court victories keep coming: Earlier this week, the Biden administration#filed another notice of appeal#to overturn an Alabama court ruling providing debt relief to a borrower buried under $100,000 of loans.

my guess is if you can bankrupt out of a loan then no bank in the US would have anything to do with student loans, its a case of fix it all or leave it the same, there is no middle ground.

Yeah but it's the state court's ruling for soecific cases. It's not like feds are passing a law or making a ruling. They are appealing!

Without comment on the issues itself, and without knowing the facts of the case/cases:
(1) The specific case would set preceident meaning it would apply to all similar cases; and
(2) If the federal government is appealing, it means they have standing and thus are affected by the ruling

Isn't Russia supposed to invade Ukraine tomorrow based on an official leak from the US government?

I think they keep leaking these things in hopes Russia won't do it. Or to make them realize they've been compromised.

I read somewhere that US intelligence sat on a bunch of information during Crimea and came to regret it after the fact.
Seems like they're publishing everything they have this time with the aim of preventing some false flag event.

This is where we are now. How pathetic the GOP is. Just take a picture of Biden walking out of the room and add this caption to it.
