Sofi Bank, N.A. Et Al V. Cardona Et Al

Summary: SoFi Bank, N.A. and SoFi Lending Corp. have filed a lawsuit against the Secretary of the United States Department of Education, Miguel Cardona, and the Department of Education itself. The lawsuit challenges the loan repayment moratorium for federal student loans that was put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The plaintiffs argue that the eighth extension of the loan moratorium is unlawful and arbitrary because it applies to all federal borrowers, not just those affected by the pandemic. They also claim that the Department of Education did not follow mandatory procedural requirements and failed to provide adequate notice and comment. The plaintiffs are seeking declaratory and injunctive relief. The lawsuit provides information on federal student loan programs administered by the Department of Education and discusses the legal background of the Department of Education, the Administrative Procedure Act, and the Major Questions Doctrine.

United States of America v. Robert Hunter Biden

Summary: Hunter Biden is currently embroiled in a lawsuit, accused of purchasing a Colt Cobra revolver in October 2018 while allegedly using illegal substances. Despite denying drug use on the necessary paperwork, if found guilty, he could face a maximum of 25 years in prison along with substantial fines. Biden's defense team contends that the charges are politically driven, asserting that Biden's temporary possession of an unloaded firearm did not constitute a public safety risk. They intend to contest the charges, leveraging an agreement with the prosecution, recent federal court decisions, and potential Second Amendment defenses. This case could potentially ignite wider discussions about Second Amendment rights, especially as the Supreme Court is poised to deliberate on a related issue concerning gun ownership for individuals subject to domestic violence restraining orders. Opinions are divided among political and legislative figures, with some speculating that advocates of the Second Amendment might oppose the law that prohibits gun ownership for drug users.
