US Coast Guard states all 5 aboard lost Titan submersible are dead
 
The US Coast Guard confirmed on Thursday that those who were aboard the Titan submersible are now dead. A spokesperson said that the debris that was found shows that the Titan passengers could not have survived the destruction of the pressure chamber.
 
A Remote Operating Vehicle discovered the debris on Thursday morning. In consultation with experts from within the unified command, the debris is consistent with the catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber." The Coast Guard immediately reached out to the families, and offered their condolences.

Authorities do not believe that bodies will be recovered, and stated that as to the cause of the destruction, an expert said that the Titanic, or a crash with the Titanic, was not at fault. Instead, they believe it was "an implosion in the water column." This was a "catastrophic implosion."
 
The timing of the implosion as regards the length of time Titan was underwater before the implosion is not yet known.
 
A statement released by OceanGate, the company behind the Titan submersible that went missing Sunday after descending to the depths to view the wreckage of the famed, ill-fated luxury liner Titanic, stating that all of those aboard are dead.

Biden’s Plan To Cancel Student Loan Debt Stands After House Fails To Overturn Veto
 
President Joe Biden’s veto of a bill intended to block his plan to cancel up to $20,000 in student loan debt for some borrowers remains standing after House Republicans failed to garner the two-thirds majority needed to override.
 
After the Government Accountability Office (GAO) determined that Biden’s plan was subject to the Congressional Review Act (CRA), House Republicans moved to block the president’s proposal, The Hill reported.  Republicans have argued that student loan forgiveness would cost the American taxpayer $400 billion and is unfair to those who repaid their student loans or didn’t attend college.
 
The subsequent resolution passed both the House and the Democrat-majority Senate after gaining support from Democrats Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Jon Tester of Montana, as well as Independent Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema. Earlier in June, however, Biden vetoed the resolution, arguing that student loan relief would help offset the financial strains felt by borrowers during and after the Covid-19 pandemic.
 
Despite having enough support to pass the initial resolution, House Republicans failed to garner enough support Wednesday to overcome Biden’s veto. The resulting 221-206 vote in the House was among party lines. Although Congress was unable to overturn Biden’s veto, the Supreme Court still must rule on the measure. Republican attorney generals and conservative groups have argued that Biden’s plan is “an illegal abuse of executive power.”
