Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders condemned Trumpās order to freeze all federal loans and grants, calling it a ādangerous move towards authoritarianismā and āblatantly unconstitutional.ā
The directive, exempting Social Security and Medicare, is expected to impact universities, nonprofits, food assistance programs, health centers, and disabled veterans.
Sanders emphasized that Congress holds the āpower of the purseā and urged Americans to oppose the order.
Attorneys general are preparing legal challenges to overturn the freeze.
In optimization problems where you are trying to find the minimum or maximum, you can get stuck in a local valley/crest where one option looks better than any other nearby options but if you move far enough away, you start getting even better options.
There is no middle option until after we let progressive reform happen.
This isnāt an optimization algorithm. This is dog training. Two thirds the dogs are taught lies and one third left to fend for themselves, and the lies are more effective.
The DNC wants to pass all the reforms we want to see, but weāre being taught the opposite is true and never giving them enough votes to make it happen.
