Biden has attempted to eliminate some student debt.
Commute the sentences of 37 (but not 40) federal death-row inmates.
Delisted Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism (Florida's deep red, so that's a gimme)
Exchange pedo Chinese spies for our spies.
What else, besides Hunter?

Somewhat off topic, but I have wondered why Cuba was treated with such sanctions, etc. by the US, and other countries with similar philosophies are not.
(Actually, I guess more of a rhetoric question. Obviously, Cuba does not really have any economic power with the US, no military threat, etc. so maybe I answered my own question.

@Mik Yeah, I get that. And there is a big anti-Cuba voting group in Florida which I suppose has some influence in the matter. LOL

One day somebody in the government will notice that pretty much the only old-fashioned communist regime left is the one that was subjected to all the sanctions, and they'll ask 'how's that working out for us?'

Some hyper sensitive people didn't like nuclear weapons, ready to go, just minutes from our shores.
Along with threats to use them.

The killing of the business class that had STRONG relationships with the US also had a Lott to do with it.

The grifting senile old fart just cost you another $12.53.
The latest round of relief provides $1.26 billion for 85,000 individuals who attended schools that allegedly “cheated and defrauded their students;” $2.5 billion for 61,000 borrowers with total and permanent disabilities; and $465 million for 6,100 public service workers, the U.S. Department of Education said on Monday.
This latest action brings the total student loan debt canceled since Biden took office to $183.6 billion, benefiting more than 5 million Americans, according to the White House.
In 2022, the Biden administration finalized a new borrower-defense rule designed to provide full relief to borrowers who had received partial forgiveness under the DeVos-era policy. However, the rule has been put on hold since the summer of 2023, following a ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.
That court granted a preliminary injunction in April, citing “numerous statutory and regulatory shortcomings” in Biden’s policy. The appellate judges also called some provisions “certainly unlawful” and criticized the rule’s “vague, brand new standards” for holding colleges accountable.
“The unbridled scope of these prohibitions enables the department to hold schools liable for conduct that it defines only with future ‘guidance’ documents or in the course of adjudication,” the judges wrote in their opinion. “Simply put, the statute does not permit the department to terrify first and clarify later.”
The Supreme Court has yet to say when it will hear oral argument
"No one is above the law."
Oh. My. Sides.
