Former NY Democrat State Senator Mocked Over Student Loan Tweet: ‘You Need Dave Ramsey, Not Joe Biden’

Former Democratic New York state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi was mocked online late this week after complaining about having to pay off her student loans in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling against President Joe Biden’s student loan cancellation program.

“In 2012, I graduated from Fordham Law School with $180,000 is [sic] student loan debt,” Biaggi tweeted. “I’ve been paying loans for 11 years. Even paid two of them off completely. In 2023, my balance is $206,000.”

In 2023, my balance is $206,000.

Some social media users pointed out a New York Post article from last year that said that the far-left Biaggi “moved into a stately $1,137,500 estate in leafy Bedford, NY” in a “ritzy suburban enclave.”

“This far-left ex-NY state senator & spouse bought a $1.13 Million home in a posh NYC ‘burb last year,” Fox News contributor Dagen McDowell tweeted. “The 20% down payment for a mortgage of that size would have more than paid off this student loan debt. Wails for home loan bailouts imminent.”

Psychology professor Geoffrey Miller responded, “And we taxpayers should bail you out… why, exactly?”

Conservative writer Christopher F. Rufo wrote: “You need Dave Ramsey, not Joe Biden.”

“You could probably rent out the carriage house on your $1M estate or let go of some of your Mexican cleaning ladies to pay it off faster,” Babylon Bee Managing Editor Joel Berry tweeted.

Tristan Tate, the brother of Andrew Tate, responded: “The man in work boots didn’t go to Law School. He doesn’t have a high lawyer’s salary, he makes significantly less money than you do. He pays his taxes and it isn’t HIS job to pay for the tools you’ve used to live your upper class lifestyle. Pay for your own education.”

Former UFC/MMA fighter Jake Shields tweeted: “It’s not my responsibility to pay off Harvard graduate’s student loans. If you couldn’t afford it you could have gone to a different school.”

Russia Plans To Assassinate Prigozhin After Mutiny: Report

A top Ukrainian intelligence official said in an interview this week that they have received intelligence showing that Russia is planning to assassinate Yevgeny Prigozhin after his Wagner paramilitary forces led a rebellion late last month against the Russian military establishment.

Maj. Gen. Kyrylo Budanov, head of the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence Directorate, told The War Zone in an interview that Ukraine had known for some time that Prigozhin was planning to lead a rebellion against elements of the Russian government — something that U.S. officials have also said.

When asked if he thought that Prigozhin would ultimately be assassinated, Budanov responded, “We are aware that the FSB was charged with a task to assassinate him.”

“Will they be successful in doing that? We’ll see with time. So in any case, all of such potential assassination attempts will not be fast,” he continued. “It will take them some time to have the proper approaches and to reach the stage when they’re ready to add a huge operation. But once again, I’d like to underline that it’s a big open question. Would they be successful in fulfilling that? Will they dare to to execute that order?”

Belarusian President Aleksandr G. Lukashenko brokered a deal to stop Wagner’s advance on Moscow last weekend that included having the charges dropped against Prigozhin and his men in exchange for allowing Prigozhin to escape to Belarus and all criminal charges being dropped. Lukashenko said this week that Putin had talked to him about the possibility of just killing Prigozhin, something that remains on the table and is highly likely to happen, according to other military experts.

No one has seen or heard from Prigozhin since last weekend, according to The New York Times. While Russia did initially say that they were going to drop charges against him, there have been conflicting reports over whether that will actually happen now that the mutiny has ended.

Wagner troops are now being forced to sign a contract with the Russian government or go back to being private citizens in Russian society under a new order from Russian President Vladimir Putin that took effect on Saturday.
