Mass. Sen. Warren: DOGE accessed ‘sensitive' student loan data at Education Dept., calls for probe
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren says she wants to know how the quasi-governmental Department of Government Efficiency gained access to 'sensitive' student loan information at the U.S. Department of Education. On Monday, Warren and U.S. Sen. Ed Markey, both Democrats, called for the agency's acting inspector general to find out how that breach happened. They were joined by Democratic senators from eight states, including U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut. Warren said lawmakers learned of the potential breach of systems at Federal Student Aid after DOGE, which was helmed until recently by tech titan Elon Musk, infiltrated the agency. In response, Education Department officials revealed that DOGE workers 'supported' a review of the FSA's contracts. As a part of that review, one employee was granted 'read-only' access to two internal systems that held sensitive personal information about borrowers. The agency said it had since revoked that access. But, according to Warren, it did not explain why that access had been revoked, or whether the employee had continued access to other databases. 'Because of the [Education] department's refusal to provide full and complete information, the full extent of DOGE's role and influence at ED remains unknown,' the lawmakers wrote in a June 8 letter to René L. Rocque, the agency's acting inspector general. That 'lack of clarity is not only frustrating for borrowers but also dangerous for the future of an agency that handles an extensive student loan portfolio and a range of federal aid programs for higher education,' the lawmakers continued. Warren, Markey and their colleagues have called on Roque's office to determine whether the department adhered to the Federal Privacy Act, which dictates how the government can collect and use personal information. They also asked Roque to 'determine the impact of DOGE's new plans to consolidate Americans' personal information across government databases.'

Warner Bros. Split Puts Bondholders in a Bind
These days the real art of television and film lies in repackaging existing formats, presenting them as something new and getting consumers to pay for it all. Warner Bros Discovery Inc. is attempting this at a grand scale with its planned separation into businesses focused first on streaming and studios, and second on legacy television. It's a sequel that pits bondholders and shareholders against each other. Liberated as a focused company, Warner's streaming and studio business promises to fetch a higher stock-market valuation as it attracts investors otherwise deterred by the current company's ties to old media. The cable television outfit, whose assets include CNN, TNT, TBS and Discovery, is likely to take on a lot of the company's debt. True, the cable industry has been losing audience to streaming upstarts, but its sizeable cash flows can still support a little extra debt leverage. Warner's cable business could generate $6.1 billion in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization in 2025, Bloomberg Intelligence forecasts. That's twice what the studio business is expected to bring in.

You need to earn 70% more now than 6 years ago to afford a median US home — but there's still hope for buyers
Think owning a home is still the American Dream? Well, you now need a six-figure income just to afford the mid-tier of that dream. According to the latest April Housing Trends Report, the income needed to buy a median-priced home in the U.S. has soared to $114,000 — a staggering 70.1% jump from just $67,000 six years ago. Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 6 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) For context, Americans' actual median household income was $80,610 in 2023, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In other words, most Americans can't afford most homes on the market. In fact, 57% of households can't even buy a $300,000 home, according to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). It might be fair to call this situation a crisis. Here's how we got to this point and what comes next. A key factor driving the housing crisis is a lack of supply. Property developers across the country have chronically underbuilt homes since the Great Recession of 2008, according to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. As of 2025, the market faces an estimated shortage of 4.5 million homes. A lack of supply encourages buyers' bidding wars, which drive prices up. That's what we've seen over the past six years.

In April 2025, construction began on 1.36 million new homes, down 1.7% compared to the same time last year, according to the Census Bureau. The NAHB points to the rise of interest rates as an exacerbatubg factor. High interest rates not only make it more difficult for construction companies to finance projects but for homebuyers to afford mortgages. However, it's not all doom-and-gloom for potential buyers. report found a silver lining emerging in the market. According to Realtor's analysis, some homeowners in certain parts of the country are 'meeting buyers in the middle.' In other words, they're willing to take a price cut on their home listing. Housing inventory is starting to build in several high-cost markets, including San Diego, San Jose, and Washington, D.C. These cities have also seen sharp increases in the number of homes listed on the market — rising by 70.1%, 67.6%, and 69.3% respectively since last year. As of April 2025, active listings were up 30.6% year-over-year across the country. That's a huge surge of inventory that could give buyers in some markets more bargaining power. In fact, some buyers are already snapping up bargains with 18% of listings seeing price reductions in April. The current housing market is far from ideal. But if you and your family earn an income high enough to qualify for a mortgage, this could be a good time to seek out deals and buy. Keep an eye on price trends and inventory levels in your local market and speak to an experienced realtor to find your dream home at a reasonable price.
