Since when does the Constitution say the President can unilaterally appropriate $300 BILLION?

[toobfreak]

His student loan forgiveness scheme is clearly unconstitutional until and unless it is passed by both houses of Congress. Spending must originate in the House. Once again Biden acts like a Dictator.

Pretty odd don't you think that OTOH, Biden is stumping for an increase of 87,000 IRS agents because we need more money then on the other hand, gives away 300 billion he's not even legally entitled to?

Haha so true. I mean no matter what we do, Republicans wont do shit except whine and put John Kennedy on Fox News giving another of his hillbilly twanged analogies.

Why should you get a free pass when you signed the note? It was your responsibility to read the contract. You knew the terms.

 

[Billy_Bob]

I looked, but just hadn't found it. I'm not sure one way or the other.

It was tabled in the senate. no vote was ever taken

 

[toobfreak]

Legally he can't do it.....but as long as Democrats run congress he can spend whatever the Hell he wants...when he wants....for whatever the fuck he wants.

Can you name any members of the GOP opposed to this who have denounced the action as an unconstitutional giveaway?

I know it's misappropriation of funds....but the DOJ is also controlled by the criminal Democrats so nobody will press charges.

What you are describing there is a political coup, isn't it? I mean, wasn't our government designed around a series of CHECKS AND BALANCES to prevent this exact thing?

Appoint me to the Supreme Court and I will tell you

Otherwise, take it to Court
That is how it is done

I knew you were just a stupid troll.

You are one of those morons who can't identify a woman because you aren't a biologist, right?

 

[multivita-man]

Yeah I think Biden would end up losing if someone brought a suit. Maybe that's part of the calculus: force some right winger to sue and then make them look like the Grinch come November.

Universities are already planning huge increases in tuition...

 

[BackAgain]

Congress has already allocated authority to Biden to forgive student loans in 2021 HR 2034.

That bill doesn’t appear to have been passed yet. Am I missing something?

H.R.2034 - 117th Congress (2021-2022): Income-Driven Student Loan Forgiveness Act

As they say in sports….No flag, no foul.

Biden just helped millions of highly educated workers escape $20,000 in debt. This is good for ALL of America

How is fucking taxpayers in the ass good for them? If they're highly educated, they should have no problem paying off their debt. I paid off my student loans. Why should I cover theirs?

Guess what?

It is Constitutional until ruled otherwise
Start there

What about the poor restaurant owner that took SBA covid disaster loans... or the Carpenter that took out an SBA loan to buy tools.... will those loans be forgiven too?... because if not this tuition relief is illegal..... a government loan is a government loan and you can't treat one American differently than another American.....

Haven't heard one word from you on the deficit and our national debt... so when Trump wins again and is president any complaining about debt by you will be laughed at.....

It hasn't passed either house of Congress, nor been signed by the President.

When a Fiat Currency starts spiraling out of control this is what happens. This is not cancelling debts it is passing it on to someone else.

They will have to pay it sometime. Either now, or later via higher taxes. Yet there are those who worked during collage, and paid it off as they went and they will have to pay twice.

No, it states in the constitution that congress must appropriate funds. Thats not something the president can do.

otherwise Trump didn't need the House for his wall. I honestly can say the demofks in here are literally clueless.
