    Let them enforce the rescission, their gutting of the IRS should cut both ways

    Its interesting how their repeal of Chevron would add this power to their repertoire to selectively enforce for different audiences

    Methinks the Judiciary has overstepped its checks and balances

      I concur. The judicial system in the US has always been the OP’d branch of government. That’s why it is so infuriating to me that it is chosen by a party candidate rather than a bipartisan group of experts. I’ll never understand that logic (outside corruption of course).

      Student loan debt is not paid to the IRS / Department of Treasury. The Dept. of Education is responsible.

      There’s enough to be upset with Biden about, the failure of his student loan forgiveness plan isn’t one of them. Even after being shot down by the Supreme Court, his administration has continued to forgive millions billions in debt through various other means.

      They really have been trying to get it done. He’s not the one you should be criticizing for this…

      Edit: fixed

        his administration has continued to forgive millions in debt through various other means.

        Hundreds of billions of debt forgiven. 167 billion and counting.

        Millions is technically correct, doesnt give the right scope of just how much his admin has helped people.

        There’s much more he could be doing than the bare minimum like using current laws to forgive what should have been forgiven years ago.

        For the one supreme court struck down he still hasn’t used any of the powers he has to still do forgiveness.

        So yes we can be pissed at him for not doing anything and allowing them to restart loans.
