Why did the press let Biden defy the Supreme Court but won't let trump.?

[StatesRightsForever]

And is there any doubt that, if Trump had done exactly the same thing, you'd be cheering?

Trump didn't do it so what are you talking about? THINK

The left is literally incapable of talking about Biden (or any other Democrat) without mentioning Trump.

This is why I say Trump actually runs BOTH parties. The DNC doesn't exist without Trump.

The press blasts trump for doing what they gladly let Biden do. Biden was told repeatedly by the courts he could not cancel student debt, but he did it over and over and even bragged, "The Supreme Court blocked it but that didn't stop me." The press cheered him for that.

Biden did not do what Trump has been doing. This is a conspiracy thread

Trump didn't do it so what are you talking about? THINK

It's a hypothetical. Are you familiar with the concept of a hypothetical? It usually involves the word "if", and then proposes a scenario for discussion.

Let's try it again. If Trump had done exactly the same thing, you'd be cheering for him, wouldn't you? Why, or why not?

It didn't really matter, did it? Voters didn't "cheer".

No, Biden didn’t defy the Supreme Court on student loans

And neither did Trump on TikTok!

No, Biden didn’t defy the Supreme Court on student loans​

And neither did Trump on TikTok!​

The background here is that President Biden announced in August 2022 that he planned to take executive action to cancel $10,000 in federal student loan debt for most borrowers.

His stated justification for doing so was the Higher Education Relief Opportunities For Students (HEROES) Act of 2002, which allows the Secretary of Education to “waive or modify” provisions of federal student loan law “as the Secretary deems necessary in connection with a war or other military operation or national emergency.”

As I’ve written before, if you read the law, it’s fairly clear that the statute’s intent was to benefit members of the military (the law’s titular “heroes”), but regardless, the Biden administration argued that the text was broad enough to allow a much wider cancellation (with Covid-19 as the relevant “national emergency”).

To make a long story short, the Supreme Court did not agree, ruling 6-3 in June 2023 that the Biden administration’s cancellation went beyond the allowable “waiving and modifying” and instead constituted an “exhaustive rewriting of the statute.”

After the ruling, the Biden administration did not carry forward with the program, but did try to relieve student loan debt in several other ways.

Yer kidding, right?

You people are so influenced by Jim "Gymboy" Jordan

It's true that the Biden administration has taken steps to reduce payments for citizens with student debt despite a Supreme Court ruling voting against a much wider plan in June 2023.

However, these new plans do not ignore the ruling by the Supreme Court as they are narrower in scope.

The administration had planned to forgive $10,000 to $20,000 of federal student loan debt per borrower, which the White House said would have benefited more than 40 million Americans from debt relief. The program would have granted student borrowers earning less than $125,000 a year up to $10,000 in debt relief, with $20,000 available to Pell Grant recipients who come from low-income households.

The debt forgiveness scheme would have cost about $400 billion, according to figures from the Congressional Budget Office, making it one of the most expensive executive decisions in American history had it not been blocked.

That normally happens when debtors do not pay their bills.

Absolutely not!

Again...wouldn't be an issue if Biden had forgiven the debt. He didnt.

Go ask a mod. If you're the one pointing it out, you have to prove it.

The court blocked particular programs

Biden abided by those rulings and tried different programs

The Court never said “you can not forgive student loans under any circumstances “
