Current Events > Federal appeals court blocks Student debt forgiveness indefinitely.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Mondays appeals court ruling followed the striking down of Bidens student loan plan by a Trump-appointed Texas federal judge last Thursday. Judge Mark Pittman, ruling on a separate suit from the one filed by the Republican-led states, claimed Bidens executive action creating the program unlawfully encroached on Congresss power. This is a completely hypocritical statement coming from the same far-right that argues for the authoritarian unitary executive theory, which radically attacks the constitutional principle of separation of powers and claims the president has unilateral power to wage war and imprison and even kill alleged terrorists and illegal enemy combatants, including US citizens.

Fuck the Republican Party.

cruelty is the point

So it's over then...

Biden administration is moving it up to the appeals court. The legal battle will continue

How long will it take though and well they extend the pause until this is resolved is the issue. At the very least they should pause the interest adding on if they continue with minimum payments. Thats a fair compromise in my mind if this is going to take forever.

I fucking hate conservatives. Every last goddamned one of them.

1. No one knows. I've been sort of following it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/StudentLoans/comments/yv3joh/litigation_status_bidenharris_debt_relief_plan/

2. Probably. I can't see payments being due until either forgiveness happens or a Republican president is elected. But all of the student loan stuff has evolved so rapidly, no one could predict we'd be where we are now a few months ago and who knows where it will go

I hope so. Republicans are so anti-American and anti-growth, it's getting fucking aggravating.

Republicans getting PPP loan forgiveness for millions. Good
Republicans on people getting a measly $1K-2K in studen loan forgiveness. Bad.

He never had the legal authority in the first place. Pelosi said as much last year:

People think that the President of the United States has the power for debt forgiveness. He does not. He can postpone. He can delay. But he does not have that power.

But the difference between the President the President can't do it. So that's not even a discussion. Not everybody realizes that. But the President can only postpone, delay, but not forgive.

Can he postpone needing to pay it indefinitely at least?

How come Trump did ten million shit things all by himself without said "authority'

Easy solution:

Step one: Everyone who currently owes at least $10,000 in student loans gets a $10,000 PPP loan

Step two: Forgive the PPP loans

He can only postpone until the end of his term if he were to do that. Its up to the next President or next term to it up or not.

I don't understand why the dems didn't campaign on this kind of shit.

Also, since the GOP is doing this Biden should just go ahead and forive all student debt if he wins once this goes to the supreme court.

What don't you dumb libs get. Loans should only be forgiven if you are RICH. It's only fair. Otherwise they'd be poor.

And can you think of anything worse than being poor?

It's a poor person doing well.

Seems to be the mindset of the average conservative politician.
