They need to pay my damn money back then

If the audit was done in 2017 sounds like this was going on during Obama’s years. Of course the liberal media like the LAT will blame the Trump admin instead of blaming their liberal King Obama

kensweet A Stanford grad decided to fight back and created a trivia app called Givling. So far we have funded thirty one, 50 K studentloans! Download the free app and use my Givlingcode KG980970 to start playing.

Of course they did. Look at who’s running it.BetsyDeVosED is shady as hell. Just like realDonaldTrump

Interesting pic. His tongue in its place in the mouth. But she is currently enjoying something. Perhaps the reason is in his hands. We don’t see them in this picture. Good shot! 😀

michikokakutani I knew ....

Lock her up too.

Sounds like loans are being given to the wrong people....

This POS article by the socialistic liberal stain slants this article towards marginalizing Betsy DeVos and promote Pocahontis when actually the cover up took place under the Democratic leadership of the creamed coffee idiot’s administration

Wow

I can believe that

Of course they did!!

... let's call ditching the outstanding balance students as 'struggling' and the standard banking procedure of repackaging bad loans as an evil act only the new administration would do - and lots of compassionate likes are guaranteed

Argh!! This administration is literally the devil incarnate!

YNB What a creepy picture.

Is there any part of the Trump regime and the Trump Party that isn’t thoroughly corrupt?

Sounds like people need to press lawsuits

Been making payments to my student loan since 2003 and barely made a dent.

Cheese - my precious?

You left out the part about it occurring during the Obama administration.

This is an administration by the rich for the rich. Students will be enslaved by the banks

May have? How about do some real reporting instead of pushing a narrative without facts

I genuinely think BetsyDeVosED angers me more than anyone else in government.

pesty1079 Also, reports indicate the sky is generally blue

What an extremely odd picture to pair with this headline

This woman cares so much about educating our children, and steering them into higher loans is giving them quite an education

Army will pay off $40,000 in loan debt. Just saying.

Yeah during the OBAMA ADMINISTRATION.....Ignore till now

AP Exclusive: Audit points to deceptive practices by NavientNEW YORK (AP) — One of the nation's largest student loan servicing companies may have driven tens of thousands of borrowers struggling with their debts into higher-cost repayment plans. That's the finding of a Department of Education audit of practices at Navient Corp., the nation's third-largest student loan servicing company. The conclusions of the 2017 audit, which until now have been kept from the public and were obtained by The Associated Press, appear to support federal and state lawsuits that accuse Navient of boosting its profits by steering some borrowers into the high-cost plans without discussing options that would have been less costly in the long run. kensweet More Fake News kensweet Ocasio2018 this is where you can help.

Education Department investigating alleged discrimination of Native American students in MontanaSioux and Assiniboine students say school district “deprives them of basic rights.” I’m assuming this is being done because they want to give them some kind of award And you felt the best image to peddle your nonsense was a Globe? Makes sense... Also, don't you mean 'Indoctrination?' Nonsense “I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,” 6 so that we confidently say, “The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What will man do to me?” Hebrews 13

The Education Department Is Canceling $150 Million Of Student Loan DebtThe U.S. Department of Education is repaying or forgiving the debt of 15,000 former students who took out loans for colleges that shut down –– an amount estimated to total $150 million.
