▼ + stars: | 2024-10-21 | by ( Rebecca Picciotto | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

As part of his economic pitch to voters, Trump has floated a sweeping tax overhaul, including a slate of income tax breaks. So far, the Republican presidential nominee has officially proposed eliminating income tax on tips and Social Security benefits, along with overtime pay. This total excludes the many more people who would be exempt from part of their income taxes if Trump executed his proposed elimination of taxes on overtime pay. It didn't have an income tax," Trump said at a sit-down with voters in New York on Friday for "Fox & Friends." The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment about Trump's proposed tax plans.

Republican presidential nominee and former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks as he visits a campaign office in Hamtramck, Michigan, U.S. October 18, 2024. Despite the unpopularity of universal tariffs among voters, Trump has dug in on the hardline proposal. Trump has floated imposing a 20% tariff on all goods from all countries, with a specifically high 60% rate on Chinese imports. The Trump tariffs have also faced heat from within the GOP. "I'm not a fan of tariffs," Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said in late September.

☆ 'Weak and pathetic': Trump seethes as Mark Cuban campaigns for Harris
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-19 | by ( Rebecca Picciotto | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday railed against fellow billionaire Mark Cuban, who has been vigorously campaigning for his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. "Mark Cuban is a Loser," Trump wrote in a Saturday Truth Social post. Trump's insults come several days after Cuban mocked the Republican presidential nominee's tariff proposals at a Harris campaign rally. This election cycle, Cuban has become a regular Harris campaign surrogate as the vice president works to frame herself as a pro-growth capitalist. Meanwhile, Trump has enlisted Elon Musk as his own mega-billionaire campaign surrogate, fueling another rivalry with Cuban.

WASHINGTON — The Biden administration announced a milestone Thursday in its effort to cancel Americans' student debt: it has provided relief to more than one million borrowers who work in public service. The Education Department said that before Biden's presidency, only 7,000 public servants had ever received student debt relief through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. The milestone comes after the administration has faced legal challenges to a number of its student debt relief proposals and roadblocks put up by court rulings. The Supreme Court, for example, ruled last year that the administration’s original student debt forgiveness program couldn't take effect. That plan would have benefited 43 million borrowers by canceling up to $20,000 in debt, potentially costing more than $400 billion.
