Nurses and Defenders Fight Student Loans While Trump Wrestles Logic
Meet Malissa Williams and Matt Sembach, the public service heroes wrangling six-figure student loans that feel like mythical beasts on 7.9% interest steroids. Williams, a nurse 'just four payments away from PSLF,' is ready to 'sell a kidney' after her monthly bill jumped from $155 to $925 thanks to a blocked repayment plan. Meanwhile, Sembach, a public defender swimming against a 'very strong current' of interest, worries Trumpās new rule might yank away their debt relief promise. The Department of Education admits delays but assures transparency in what sounds like the bureaucratic equivalent of a Dodgeball team huddling in fear.

Public servants bust tails for years and get slapped with student loans so brutal they need a kidney sale or landlord forgiveness. Meanwhile, Trumpās got the audacity to redefine 'public service' like it's a bad Tinder date gone political.
Loan forgiveness for public heroes now depends on whether your employer passes some FBI-no-discrimination-no-transitioning vibe check. Nothing says gratitude like paperwork hell and policies from the Twilight Zone.
Nothing screams āthank you for servingā louder than charging nurses $925 a month while deciding if their jobs are āanti-American.ā Bet Elon never had this level of stress on a loan for his first rocket.
