Interesting to see @JDVance today zeroing in on the charade that I wrote about for @propublica last year, how tech giants run obscure print classified ads for jobs they already have an H-1b visa holder doing, as part of the dysfunctional process to get that worker a green card.

I rarely say this, but this is some pretty good work by NPR:
“Five-hundred colleges and universities in the U.S. now share one alarming distinction: At least 40% of recent students who borrowed federal loans aren't paying them back.”
“Were it not for federal student loans and grants, many of the schools on the list would close.”
