Rep. Cori Bush requested information from student-loan company MOHELA on its involvement in a lawsuit. Six GOP-led states recently argued Biden's debt relief would hurt the business operations of MOHELA. "It is unconscionable that your company—as one of the largest student loan companies in the world—would be involved in overtly political efforts to rob millions of their right to student loan debt relief," Bush wrote. "To date, your company has remained silent about the legal efforts filed on your behalf to halt President Biden's student debt cancellation program. Does MOHELA support efforts to block debt relief in an effort to preserve its own profits?

Missouri-based student-loan company MOHELA is involved in a GOP lawsuit suing Biden's debt relief. Missouri Rep. Cori Bush called on the company to stop "prioritizing profits over people." On Wednesday, a federal judge heard arguments from lawyers representing President Joe Biden and the six Republican-led states who sued Biden's debt relief because they say it would harm their states' tax revenues. They also claim it would hurt the financial operations of Missouri-based loan company MOHELA, where the lawsuit was filed. The Biden administration is still moving forward with its up to $20,000 debt relief process.

One former Majorel advisor estimated that 1,400 content moderators work just on the firm's TikTok contract across Morocco. While targets and goals varied between teams, six moderators told Insider that their goals were difficult to meet. A spokesperson for Majorel told Insider these targets were guidance and not individual targets. While Majorel told Insider that moderators have access to harm-mitigation tools, such as grayscale features, all of the moderators Insider spoke with said they didn't have access to any such feature. Five other Majorel moderators also said the company's wellness counselors weren't enough to help them with the pressures of the role.

A leaked video obtained by Insider shows guards violently tackling a Black asylum seeker at a Louisiana detention center. Detainees and immigration lawyers say there is a disturbing and overlooked problem of anti-Black racism in immigration detention. In January, Representative Cori Bush (D-MO) and Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) called for a "holistic review of the disparate treatment of Black migrants." Across the state, eight new immigration detention centers have been opened in the past three years – all privately run. In just Texas and Louisiana, 11 separate facilities in recent years have shifted from prisons or jails to immigration detention centers.

☆ Centrists! They're real! Here are 26 who will matter quite a bit for Joe Biden and his plans to govern in a divided post-Trump America.

President-elect Joe Biden will probably govern with a divided Congress, and will need to bring different factions together to get things done. During the presidential campaign, multiple Republicans such as former Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake and Cindy McCain broke with their party to support Biden. Biden will need to win over the support of centrist Republicans in Congress to enact policies and confirm judges and Cabinet members. Outside groups that influence public opinion and help to elect Democrats will need to get onboard with Biden's positions or would otherwise mobilize opposition. Here's the list of the top 26 most influential centrists Biden will lean on to enact his agenda.
