hoe ass 8th circuit wasjust stalling for something like this
But apparently this ruling lacks standing for the millionth time
EDIT: where we go from here
Appeals court we go
Smh
So apparently ppl are saying that the judges plan to uphold the decision that it’s unconstitutional. If that happens it goes to the Supreme Court and prolly gets struck down. They pretty much bypassed the standing defense
I wouldn’t say that cause think about it…So apparently ppl are saying that the judges plan to uphold the decision that it’s unconstitutional. If that happens it goes to the Supreme Court and prolly gets struck down. They pretty much bypassed the standing defense
These people don’t have standing or harm. This opens the door to taxpayers being able to sue for anything they don’t like which will be a legal shyt show.
It’s why Amy Coney Barrett didn’t even hear 2 of the other cases they put to her on the shadow docket
I guess I was reading too many doomer posts on Reddit. Objectively, how do u see this going?
I see your argument about precedent if this is struck down, but with these judges, won’t all cases that go like this, go thru the same process where it ends up in the SC, where they can rule however they want, based on ideology?

District Court Judge Mark Pittman, an appointee of former President Donald Trump based in Fort Worth, said the program usurped Congress’ power to make laws.
“In this country, we are not ruled by an all-powerful executive with a pen and a phone. Instead, we are ruled by a Constitution that provides for three distinct and independent branches of government,” Pittman wrote.
He added: “The Court is not blind to the current political division in our country. But it is fundamental to the survival of our Republic that the separation of powers as outlined in our Constitution be preserved

Don't ever let anyone tell you voting doesn't matter.
No idea. If it gets to SCOTUS, I’m not even sure they’d strike it all down.
I think Biden will have to use a different legal authority.
The 1965 Higher Education Act and explicitly say Congress granted compromise and settlement authority to not collect the debt per borrower.
Sorry can I explain this part? Not sure what u mean here
The legal authority Biden used was the 2003 Heroes Act which said that government issued loans can be discharged in an emergency.
The COVID emergency declaration is still ongoing. So that’s why they used this authority.
But many argue the 1965 Higher Education Act which they’ve used for the payment pause (Trump also used it for the pause) has also been used to write off loans. There are people who’ve argued it’s stronger legal footing.
Maybe there’s some hope

Didn’t ACB deny requests to challenge loan forgiveness like last week?
