Biden announced earlier this year that the federal government would provide up to $10,000 in student loan relief to selected borrowers, but the action has since been contested in court.

After courts halted his handout plan due to a string of legal issues, President Biden changed his mind about student loan repayments.

“This is really, I think, the greatest abuse of this era in terms of just blatantly unconstitutional,” said Fox News contributor James Freeman. “We all understand that the legislative power in this country resides in the Congress. He has to get congressional authorization to appropriate huge sums of money. He has not done that.”

“He recently pretended that he had, bizarrely claiming that he had signed a bill passed by Congress,” Freeman added. “It was a complete falsehood that’s never occurred.”

Biden originally said he would end the student loan repayment moratorium by December 31; however, he has since extended it through June of 2019.

Who knows if or when borrowers will need to make payments again? the Wall Street Journal editorial board posed in reference to the policy, which they dubbed “Biden’s eternal emergency.”

Despite “looking extensively” into tips that one of the victims had a stalker, detectives looking into the brutal killings of four college students in Moscow, Idaho, nine days ago have not been able to confirm the information, police said on Tuesday evening.

The Moscow Police Department reported receiving “hundreds of pieces of information” regarding the potential stalking of Kaylee Goncalves.

Jim Clemente, a retired FBI supervisory special agent and expert in criminal behavioral analysis, said to Fox News Digital on Tuesday that the murderer was probably a stalker familiar with the victims’ routines or knew the victims personally.

“Going into an occupied dwelling with six people in … different rooms in the middle of the night is an extremely high-risk crime, unless he knows one or more of the people,” Clemente said. “So, that is my first thought on it: this offender did not just randomly choose this location, that he targeted one or more of the people in there. Now, that could be because he has a relationship or a past relationship with one or more of them, or it could be that he’s been stalking one or more of them.”

The use of a “fixed-blade knife” in the attacks was also confirmed by police on Tuesday. Following an autopsy last week, a medical examiner concluded that all four victims had sustained multiple stabbings, some of which may have been in self-defense.

Detectives have been asking around at neighborhood shops to see if anyone has recently bought a fix-blade knife.

Days after the assault, police inquired about the presence of “Ka-Bar-style knives,” a style of combat knife “similar to the knife Rambo has,” according to a local store owner who spoke with the Idaho Statesman.

On Monday, other officers expanded the crime scene to include a parking lot and a forested area behind the home. On Tuesday, one officer was seen carrying evidence boxes out of the house.

Over 50 bags of human remains were found buried in the ground after a dog was seen running through Mexico carrying a severed human hand in its mouth.

The discovery was made in Guanajuato, a violent Mexican state affected by drug cartels, during the El Cervantino festival in late October.

After seeing the dog carrying the hand, people hurried to the gravesite in the town of Irapuato. They started searching for clues about their missing loved ones as they could still hear the festival celebrations nearby.

“While people from all over the world were celebrating the Cervantino festival, we were digging up bodies, and at the same time I thought it was useless because they were burying more people elsewhere,” searcher Bibiana Mendoza told Agence French-Presse.

As the state deals with widespread cartel violence, Mendoza is the leader of a group looking for an unspecified number of missing individuals, including her brother.

The most violent state in Mexico is thought to be Guanajuato. As of September, there had been about 2,400 homicides and 3,000 reported missing persons.

Nemesio Oseguera, also known as “El Mencho,” is the leader of the Jalisco cartel and a wanted man internationally.

Late last month, a dog was spotted in Zacatecas, Mexico, carrying a severed human head. Later, a message mentioning a drug cartel was discovered next to the incident’s remaining body parts. Additionally, drug cartel-fueled violent crime is rife in Zacatecas.

Officials report that three people are in critical condition after a rowhome exploded in a Baltimore neighborhood on Tuesday. Soon after 2 o’clock, a home in Baltimore’s Pigtown neighborhood’s 1100 block of Bayard Street experienced a blast.

According to the Baltimore Fire Department, the collapse resulted in a gas line rupturing, which started a huge fire.

Three people were discovered trapped under debris left over from the collapse and explosion when firefighters arrived. The fire department reported that a 70-year-old man was attempting to assist two women, aged 16 and 48, who were inside the home when it collapsed.

All three victims were taken right away to the hospital to receive medical attention. Although the three victims were “considered critical,” Baltimore Fire has not provided an update on their health.

“The fire is now under control. BGE is on scene digging in the street to gain access to gas lines. An excavator has been requested and en route to assist,” Councilwoman Phylicia Porter said. “At the present time, possibly three families may need to be relocated. Housing and Red Cross are on scene assisting those families.”

The gas main that supplies the explosion site underwent upgrades in October, according to a statement from Baltimore Gas and Electric.

A video of a 77-year-old woman being thrown to the ground during a robbery inside an apartment building was made public by the New York City Police Department.

The incident took place in the Bronx neighborhood of the city on Friday around 8:30 a.m.

“Upon arrival officers were informed by a 77-year-old female victim she was approached by unidentified individual from behind and forcibly removed her purse (containing $125 currency and personal items) before fleeing to parts unknown,” the NYPD said in a statement.

“The victim sustained minor injuries and was treated on scene by EMS,” police added.

The woman is seen being pulled and then thrown to the ground after the suspect grabs her purse, which she was holding with her arm, according to surveillance footage released by the police.

The unidentified suspect appears to be dressed in a dark pair of pants and a gray and black jacket.

The suspect has not been located

A man from Florida jumped the counter of a fast-food restaurant and demanded free food, threatening the staff with a pair of pliers.

According to the Tampa Police Department, 50-year-old Hubert Credit Jr. entered the fast food establishment shortly after 5:30 p.m. and started asking for free food from the staff.

According to the authorities, Credit threatened the workers with a pair of pliers after they refused.

According to police, surveillance video shows Credit slamming the pliers against the counter and toppling one of the cash registers. After that, he can be seen leaping over the service counter, where he allegedly continued to threaten people.

“In fear, a restaurant manager discreetly notified a citizen in the drive through lane with her radio headset that they were in danger and to call 911,” the department said.

Police claimed that the manager was compelled to give Credit free food in the interim.

When responding officers arrived, they discovered Credit eating the food in a male restroom stall, according to the police. Credit was taken into custody without a struggle after officers told him to leave the restroom.

The charge against Credit was armed robbery. According to police, no one was hurt in the incident.

After attempting to claim credit for the “largest” one-year reduction in the federal budget deficit in American history on Monday, the White House received fact-checking from Twitter users.

Another Community Note that provided the context that was missing for the White House’s claim was given to President Biden’s communications team after they attempted to overstate the administration’s record on reducing the deficit on Twitter.

The Biden-Harris Administration lowered the deficit with the single largest one-year reduction in American history.

But readers added crucial information that the White House had missed, pointing out that between the fiscal years 2020 and 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic saw a sharp increase in deficit spending.

“COVID-driven deficits in both FY20 & 21 were roughly double the previous record (09), making the drop to FY22 sizable,” the Community Note said.

“But the FY22 deficit is still the 4th largest in history and is 41% larger than FY19,” Twitter users pointed out.

Community Notes, formerly known as Birdwatch, is a feature on Twitter that enables qualified users to sign up to add context to factual statements that are missing. Twitter does not run the program. Instead, users can eventually unlock the ability to write by rating the notes they find useful.

“Community Notes doesn’t work by majority rules. To identify notes that are helpful to a wide range of people, notes require agreement between contributors who have sometimes disagreed in their past ratings. This helps prevent one-sided ratings,” Twitter explains in its Community Notes Guide.

The national debt is currently over $31.2 trillion, or 121.51% of the total value of goods and services produced in the U.S. economy (GDP).

Twitter users had previously called out the White House for making inflated claims.

Earlier this month, the White House deleted a tweet that credited Biden’s “leadership” with the “biggest increase” in Social Security payments in 10 years. Twitter users added context that said the rise in Social Security payments was “due to the annual cost of living adjustment, which is based on the inflation rate.”

Eight days after someone fatally stabbed Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin inside their home close to the school’s campus in Moscow, Idaho, police still have no leads, no leads, and no motive.

“Like something out of a movie” is how a next-door neighbor describes the scene of the recent murders of four University of Idaho students.

Some neighbors who were still in town on Monday recalled the night of the murders, which took place some time between 3 and 4 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 13. Most locals have returned home for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Dakota Sparks and Heather Tetwiler, a couple, also reside not far from the crime scene.

“I left for work around 11:45 (in the morning),” Sparks said. “I never saw or heard anything the night before. I was up until 2 a.m. and never heard anything at all.”

According to the police, Goncalves and Mogen returned home at 1:45 a.m. after obtaining food from a food truck and taking a ride from a “private party.”

Around that time, Kernodle and her boyfriend Chapin came home from a fraternity party at the Sigma Chi house, which was only 1.5 miles away.

Ten hours after the victims returned home and seven to eight hours after police believe they were killed, a 911 call didn’t come in until 11:58 on Sunday morning. One of the surviving roommates’ cell phone made the call.

The house, according to the neighbors, was frequently crowded and noisy. It is referred to as a party house by Reagan. Despite this, the victims, according to the neighbors, were polite and engaged in typical college campus social activities.

Moscow, Idaho, which has a population of about 25,000 and is located 80 miles southeast of Spokane, Washington, is home to the University of Idaho. In seven years, there have been no reported homicides in the college town.

On Friday in Milan, Italy, protesters hurled flour at a 1979 Andy Warhol sports car painting as a way of venting their resentment.

The incident is just another example of the pattern set by Generation Z climate change activists who target and destroy artwork in galleries using food or other objects.

While two other protesters spread mashed potatoes on a Monet, two others threw tomato soup at a van Gogh painting. For environmental justice, one person threw cake at the Mona Lisa while others poured milk on store floors.

Each time, the artwork was protected by glass, preventing it from being damaged.

According to Reuters, this time, members of the band Ultima Generazione, or Last Generation, used flour to simulate snowfall on Warhol’s BMW Art Car.

The group, Ultima Generazione, conducts nonviolent civil disobedience actions to demand immediate and effective measures against the ecoclimate collapse, according to the group’s website.

In Egypt, there were climate talks going on when the group vandalized the sports car.

Although U.N. negotiators agreed to make “reparations” payments to poorer countries, they have not yet specified how these payments will be made.

According to court documents, a man from South Carolina has admitted to giving a minor a tattoo while they were both seated at a table in the McDonald’s restaurant’s dining area.

In connection with the illegal inking at a McDonald’s in Laurens, a city about 35 miles south of Spartanburg, Brandon Presha, 29, last month pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts.

Presha, who is depicted to the right, was found guilty of tattooing a child and doing so without a permit. He was given a nine-month prison term, but the judge decided to substitute an 18-month probation supervision period in its place.

Presha was also required to pay a $300 fine, 30 hours of community service, and court costs. Presha was arrested in August of last year and released on a $25,000 bond.

A female customer who was impatient with a Friday night back-up in the drive-thru line peered inside the restaurant and saw Presha tattooing the child’s arm is how police first became aware of the McTattooing. The woman captured Presha in action on camera, and she later sent police the video.

The customer complained that Presha and the tattooed person were “out here doing tattoos instead of getting food orders out” as she was recording. Presha tattooed a young person who worked at McDonald’s (pictured below).

Presha’s tattooing collar was not the first time he had been detained at the McDonald’s location, according to the police. He was apprehended in October 2020 for allegedly stabbing a man twice during an altercation in the restaurant’s restroom (where Presha’s girlfriend worked).

Presha was initially accused of “assault/attempted murder,” but later pleaded guilty to assault and battery and received a three-year prison term for the felony. The custodial sentence, however, was suspended by the judge, and Presha was instead
