AdvertisementStill, RIP Medical Debt has been tweaking its efforts in ways that it believes will make debt relief more effective. And it’s always possible ― as the philanthropy’s leaders have said ― that the study didn’t fully capture the benefits of taking away medical debt.

It took Donald Trump a mere fraction of that time to accomplish the same feat for his Jan. 6, 2021, coup attempt. Trump’s propaganda campaign to redefine Jan. 6, in contrast, has taken place at lightning speed. “I think he’s lost any sort of political viability he was going to have,” she told Politico on Jan. 12.
