I’m sick of federal judges blocking everything. This was their deliberate decades long plan to control everything without voter consent. See Master Plan podcast. We’re fucked.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

If Trump wins a second term, you’ll be saying the exact opposite.
How is it Legal for a Judge to Block an OFFICIAL ACT?
It's not an official act because it came from a Democrat
As long as they are not illegal. If their are illegal they're just fine.
Then Biden needs to do a illegal loan forgiveness and forgive federal and private loans without consent. Just declare student loans are illegal.
He doesn’t have to declare anything. It just has to be an official duty, have Seal Team 6 deliver the loan forgiveness letters in bulk. Since the Department of Education is under the executive branch, do it’s fine according to the morons on the Supreme Court.
I mean couldn’t the president just have the Supreme Court executed as an official act now and have immunity?
Well now he can just do it and call it an official act.
Just. Zero. The. Interest.
Stop with all these convoluted piecemeal plans. Just get someone like Fannie Mae to buy up all the loans made before 2014, and then zero out the interest on remaining payments.
Unfortunately the interest rate is specifically set by law and tied to 10 year treasury bill rates. This cannot be altered with an executive action, would need congress to change the law.

That's why the executive orders are focused on things like minimum payments, how long it takes to get forgiveness, who qualifies, etc, because the laws give the department of education more latitude to adjust those things (or are supposed to at least, weird rulings from republican judges notwithstanding).
We have 0% interest in Canada, but the way people tell it our Liberals and Trudeau specifically has never done anything good for anyone.
Heave, ho
All together
Hoist the colors high
Seriously, fuck these fucks.
We're gonna have to band together just to get some fucken civil services around here.
...never shall we die?
As it always has been
i don't understand why they get to be in power. People could just vote 'no' if they won't want it
Wish he would say “fuck it jack!” And just forgive all student debt. No means testing, just all gone.
He can legally do that. And if the judges say boo about it he can grow a pair and tell them to try and enforce it. He controls the DOJ.
