Official Student Debt Cancellation Watch Thread

[Software]

Schumer was never serious about student debt relief.

All that peacocking he's been doing is just so he doesn't face a primary challenge.

Pelosi

She deserves to retire as minority leader.

She knows Congress is broken and won't do it, so she makes it to be a Congressional issue.

This country, man.

It’s embarrassing that they are spending 12 months going back and forth over whether debt forgiveness has to be an act of Congress or if it can be eliminated solely through a presidential order.

WHAT ARE THE SPECIFIC DOCUMENTS AND WRITTEN POLICIES BEING REFERRED TO???

it shouldn’t be up to interpretation and these back and forth vague references about what’s allowed or not allowed. What document(s) address a president’s ability to abolish debt? Take a look at the shyt and settle it and if the fukkin document is too vague then commit to a well defined new policy to address our ever changing world.

these muthafukkas are a joke

...yeah but this would involve actually doing shyt and if you actually do shyt people will know that you have the power to actually do shyt and will expect you to do more shyt later on. Much better to hand-wave it away and hope the natives don't get restless again.

And by the way, the pro-cancellation side has been clear about the source of the executive authority from day 1.

Warren, Schumer, Pressley, Colleagues: President Biden Can and Should Use Executive Action to Cancel up to $50,000 in Federal Student Loan Debt Immediately | U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts

• 
  

  [*]Recognizes the Secretary of Education's broad administrative authority to cancel up to $50,000 in Federal student debt, using the modification and compromise authority Congress has already granted the Secretary in law;
  [*]Calls on President Biden to take executive action to administratively cancel up to $50,000 in Federal student loan debt for Federal student loan borrowers using existing legal authorities under section 432(a) of the Higher Education act of 1965 and any authorities available under the law;
  [*]Encourages President Biden to use the executive's authority under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to prevent administrative debt cancellation from resulting in a tax liability for borrowers;

It's Biden and Pelosi and the do-nothing Dems who have yet to provide any legal rationale for their position of powerlessness. Months ago Biden said he was gonna get his people to "review" and we haven't heard shyt from them yet.

I really don't know if I can bring myself to vote in anymore elections. The Dems really don't care

Worst part is they won't even put up a fight for young people. She literally just told young people to get fukked..... But I bet she'd have a big problem if young people collectively decided to stop paying taxes for social security, and I won't even give up on the police messaging. They've pretty much given cops the green light to kill anyone with black skin whenever they'd like. We'll forever be second class citizens to these people only deserving of a bullet rather than equality.

Student debt relief has broad support in the house.

Even Clyburn sponsored a bill in 2019 calling on 50k in student debt relief for people earning 100k or less.

The truth is, we're only doing this dance because of the filibuster. Schumer should get his caucus in line with the house and what he deems important and stop kicking the can to others.

She's giving Biden cover when says he doesn't have the authority to forgive student loans

 

[Payday23]

Biden and the Dems deserve to get wrecked. This shytshow of leadership has me staying home next election. You don't deliver I don't vote. Fight the fascists yourselves

Yep, and they're both lying through their fake fukking teeth.
