America First Legal (AFL) has recently launched the "Borrower Defense Toolkit" to empower Americans in their fight against the woke leftist anti-Semites who are allegedly ruining our taxpayer-funded higher education system. The toolkit aims to hold these individuals accountable and make them pay for the damage they have caused.

According to recent data, there are approximately 43.4 million student loan borrowers in the United States, holding a staggering $1.63 trillion in outstanding loans, all guaranteed by federal taxpayers. It is this very support that sustains the higher education industry. However, AFL argues that key industry players are using this backing to promote anti-American and anti-Semitic ideologies, along with hosting foreign propaganda.

Federal law explicitly prohibits colleges and universities from making "substantial misrepresentations" about their educational programs in marketing materials, websites, or any other communication with students or prospective students. Such misrepresentations can include the omission of important information that may lead to erroneous or misleading statements. This is where the concept of "Borrower Defense" comes into play.

"Borrower Defense" is a legal process that allows students or graduates who have been victimized by misrepresentations from educational institutions to have their student loan debt discharged by the Department of Education. AFL argues that many higher education institutions claim to be inclusive, law-abiding, and uphold rules of conduct. However, there is evidence to suggest that these schools only enforce their conduct policies against conservative, pro-American, pro-life, and pro-Israel students or faculty, while protecting leftist woke anti-Semites.

If a college or university demonstrates bias by favoring leftist students, pro-Hamas faculty, or anti-American foreign nationals, or fails to discipline them in accordance with published standards of conduct, AFL believes that it has likely made substantial misrepresentations. This, in turn, may entitle students to claim a Borrower Defense to student loan repayment.

To protect American taxpayers, the law allows the Department of Education to reclaim loans subject to Borrower Defense from the offending institution. This means that Borrower Defense to repayment serves as a tool for ordinary Americans to hold the woke leftist anti-Semites accountable and make them pay for the damage they have caused to our taxpayer-funded institutions of higher education.

AFL is proud to offer the Borrower Defense Toolkit to help Americans understand their legal rights and provide them with the necessary tools to fight back against leftist, woke, and anti-Semitic colleges and universities.

In conclusion, AFL's launch of the Borrower Defense Toolkit serves as a valuable resource for those who have been victimized by misrepresentations in higher education. By understanding their rights and utilizing this toolkit, ordinary Americans can hold accountable the individuals who are allegedly promoting anti-American and anti-Semitic ideologies within our educational institutions.
