Republicans would poison the village well just to make a Democrat mayor look bad as they & everyone around them lay dying.
You joke, but they actually did this in Flint, Michigan and Jackson, Mississippi.
They’ve made it a national sport to die to own the libs, undefeated champions since 2020
5th Circuit: For when you need less credibility than the Supreme Court.
I think we can just safely say our judicial system has lost all credibility of being just.
American law enforcement and judicial system run purely on threat of state sanctioned violence at this point, and that’s really disheartening.
Always have friend.
Jesus. The GOP is really trying to salt the Earth with two entire generations…
It was going to happen eventually. They’ve been less and less popular since Reagan left office as their greed, aggression and anti-American principles came to the forefront. The last two Republicans to actually win a presidential election were Bush in 04 and Bush in 92. Ken Paxton actually bragged in Texas that his voter suppression campaign is the reason the state didn’t go blue. You’ll notice that he’s on trial for corruption now.
Point is: theyve known for a long time that they’re not gonna be able to depend on popularity among voters to maintain power, so they’ve gone mask off. They’re gerrymandering, they’re suppressing votes. Hell, the trump white house decided not to respond to COVID at least in part because plagues tend to run through more populous areas so they thought it would kill more democrats. The supreme court stopped just short of giving the Republican controlled state legislatures the ability to ignore the results of an election entirely, but Republicans are ignoring supreme court orders to redraw gerrymandered maps and put together fake electors in 2020 anyway so let’s see what (if any) consequences arise if they continue to ignore the law. Democracy has become incompatible with their continued power, and there was never any doubt that Republicans weren’t going to give up power unless forced to.
We cannot afford a green light for dishonest schools to continue harming students
This also should apply to skyrocketing tuition rates due to the institutions knowing that students would be pressured to take the predatory government loans. The government shouldn’t have been willing to pay that much to begin with, which would force the universities to lower their rates.
But if tuition was affordable, no one would join the army!
Few are even able to join the army anyway.

Sure, but SCOTUS has ensured that the president doesn’t have the power to do that and there’s no chance it passes congress. Going after for-profit scam institutions has generally been upheld by courts.
forgive it anyway. We are not ruled by these septuagenarian fucks who can’t stomach even the tiniest bit of mercy for anyone but the ultra rich
When CCST filed its lawsuit earlier this year on behalf of more than 70 Texas institutions, it said the Education Department’s rule was created “with a thumb on the scale to maximize the number of approved claims and, ultimately, further the administration’s loan forgiveness agenda.”
Yes.
It’s basically a self-own too. “No, the federal government can’t unfairly attack shitty schools like us!”
I really appreciate how this move dismantles the most common conservative arguments against student debt forgiveness.
Without hypocrisy, how can they define themselves? It would be Nihilism. We can’t let cancel culture take away the only thing they have left
How about we go after the core of this problem, the inflation of the cost of college? It makes no sense the inflation of a four year degree in the last twenty years. Its perverse.
We can walk and chew gum. Although, in this case, congress isn’t doing any walking, so all we have is the gum option.
Drop interest rates and minimum payments to zero. No debt forgiven but all these assholes who are knee deep in Student Loan Asset Backed Securities (SLABS) lose their $$. Then don’t bail them out so they can’t lobby congress to eliminate student debt anymore. Problem solved.
I’m fine w/ lowering the interest rates, then also putting strangle hold on new loans. Or we are going to keep this BS flowing.
BSEE = loan
Underwater basket weaving = you need 50% down.
I think there should be free public colleges. Other countries do it. We should too.
Also government healthcare too.
Stop voting for Republicans. They don’t want government to help people.
or perhaps we should just steer more folks to trades jobs, and not the 4 year college track.
Getting real fucking sick of the conservative activist judges.
