President Biden DID NOT RUN FOR PRESIDENT ON BLANKET STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS.
STOP LYING ON HIM.
The blanket forgiveness isn’t something he has promised.
Period.
It is not something that he can do via Executive Order.
What he CAN DO IS…..
Sign a Student Loan Forgiveness Bill that passes both houses of Congress.
So, tell your favorites to write the damn bill.😠😠
Can 46 instruct his Administration to clean up the problems in the Public Interest Repayment Program and the Income Based Repayment Program?
Yes.
And, cleaning up those programs would help many.
We been knew #CancelStudentDebt was created to help white wealthy folk to get ahead and if a few Black and Brown folks benefited they could live with that too.
President Biden is not with your scam and y’all about to be salty as fvk. #MeansTestStudentDebt pic.twitter.com/yBrI4guIDG

this whole “cancel student loan” narrative is totally manufactured by the media because most of their talent owes some type of debt.

$10,000 in forgiveness will help a lot of people:
It will help a lot of people. It just won't pay for her expensive graduate program and that's why she's pissed off. pic.twitter.com/rWUpNloxW7

The never satisfied crowd is about to be big mad about student loan forgiveness being means tested.
Stop catering to this crowd they only care about what helps them not what helps others.

Also understand why the left is trying to use Black borrowers to scapegoat the Student Loan issue. Serious candidates would be looking to cancel Debt for Black Borrowers first. Especially those with subsidized loans. Elizabeth Warren is once again using Black people for politics pic.twitter.com/eUCkyc9gYJ

Only 7% of student loan debt holders owe more than $100k in student loans, but they owe over $580 billion—more than a third of all student loan debt. These are the loud voices on Twitter.
A $10k write off would ELIMINATE student loan debt for about 31% of all borrowers.
Joy was SICK that Lawrence O'Donnell blew a hole in her argument.
Lawrence was spot on about transactional voters (although I believe these types don't even hold up their end of the bargain) https://t.co/YGGeQECerC

I’ve had enough of your lying 🤥 Azz ELIZABETH WARREN tell the damn truth! President Joe Biden does NOT have the constitutional authority to cancel student loan debt the power lies with you & the legislative Branch.

As always, we’re engaging in dialogues from different starting points. Pres Biden & *some economists recognize this while EW & that crowd chose not to but instead use their power to deceive those willing to be deceived.

borrowers. It isn’t new or surprising to anyone. Every person in America knows the SL & lending, college graduate pay & earnings, savings, interest rates all are glaringly harmful to Black folk. But the folk loudest abt SL forgiveness ignore the obvious because “they want theirs”

white Vietnam vets got agent Orange settlements (Black soldiers surged to finally get some). White folk kept us out of neighborhoods, schools, small business loans, elected office, school boards. They’ve always put their interest first & sometimes only. The wealth stolen from

Notice this post isn’t abt political parties because it isn’t party affiliation that determines who gets relief. It’s race. It’s always face. White first, Black last or never. The SL push really took off following the most recent giveaway to the wealthy under TFG. That went

Hope to follow in their draft and get our crumbs. The Big Tent that less wealthy white men & women share with the rest of us becomes segregated really quickly when government relief for <anything> starts being bandied about. We are, as a nation, who we are and we always return

Republicans, on cusp of abortion win, seek to change the subject
They had been on the rhetorical offensive against Democrats. After the Supreme Court leak, it’s the GOP searching for the right message.
By Mike DeBonis
Yesterday at 7:13 p.m. EDT
Every January, congressional Republicans have marked the anniversary of the 1973 Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade with a political ritual.
They host constituents joining the annual March for Life and often participate themselves. Many give speeches on the House and Senate floors decrying the court’s establishment of a constitutional right to abortion. And, if they are in the majority, GOP leaders hold votes on bills that would further restrict that right — heralding a day when Roe might be rescinded entirely.
That day now appears to be at hand. An extraordinary leak of a draft opinion this week indicated that the Supreme Court may be on the cusp of overturning Roe and probably triggering new restrictions on abortion in some two dozen states. Yet few Republicans have openly celebrated, even though Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr.’s opinion would, if adopted by the court, fulfill what is perhaps the conservative movement’s single most enduring policy goal.
Instead, many GOP lawmakers — including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, an architect of a conservative revolution in the federal courts — said they were more concerned about the leak and its implications than the substance of the opinion. Many ascribed the subdued reaction to mere wariness over celebrating a decision that has not actually been handed down.
……………..
For months, the GOP has been on the rhetorical offensive against President Biden and fellow Democrats — hammering them on the Afghanistan withdrawal, on increasing homicide rates, on a chaotic southern border and on seemingly ever-rising inflation. But, unlike with those issues, public opinion runs sharply against the GOP on abortion, suggesting the party could pay a significant political price if Roe is overturned. A new Washington Post-ABC News poll found 54 percent of Americans want the ruling upheld vs. 28 percent wanting it overturned.
