The Supreme Court on Wednesday maintained a temporary pause on a new effort by President Biden to wipe out tens and perhaps hundreds of billions of dollars of student debt.
The plan was part of the president’s piecemeal approach to forgiving debt after the Supreme Court rejected a more ambitious proposal last year that would have canceled more than $400 billion in loans. Mr. Biden has instead pursued more limited measures directed at certain types of borrowers, including people on disability and public service workers, and refined existing programs.
The decision leaves in limbo millions of borrowers enrolled in a new plan, called Saving on a Valuable Education, which ties monthly payments to household size and earnings.
The emergency application was one of two related to the program that the justices decided on Wednesday. The brief order did not give reasons, which is typical, and no public dissents were noted.
Republican-led states had filed a number of challenges to the plan, including a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, in St. Louis, which earlier this summer issued a broad hold on the loan plan while it considers the merits of the case.
Just declare loan forgiveness as an official act, then claim immunity
Then walk out going:
“Fuck you” points at Thomas
“Fuck you” points at Alito
“Fuck you” points at Gorsuch
“Fuck you” points at Kavanaugh
“Fuck you” points at Roberts
“Fuck you” points at Barrett
“You’re cool” *points at Sotomayor, Jackson, and Kagan.
“I’m out, bitches!”
This is exactly what I hoped Biden’s admin would do when they were challenged. “Oh no I made it an Executive Order anyway, it’s happening so deal with it”.
What’s the least disparaging way of saying “do it or no balls”?
We need to flip the house and pass the senate’s bill to expand the court. Screw these extremists.
13 federal circuits.
There should be 13 Supreme Court justices.
Each justice could be responsible as “executive” of their circuit.
12 associate justices for the 1st through 12th circuit.
The chief justice is assigned the Federal Appeals Circuit.
It makes way too much sense.
Your statement is the extremist view.
Just using the legislative process to do what has been done before.
It’s kind of weird to think using the legislative process as the founders did is extreme.
And in four years just expand the court. And in four years just expand the court. What is your end game
I reiterate: It’s kind of weird to think using the legislative process as the founders did is extreme. Why do I say that? Because the founders organized the Supreme Court via legislation.
If in four years a Republican-controlled House, Senate, and Executive branch want to expand the court via legislation, then that’s their prerogative. And if four years after that, a Democrat-controlled House, Senate, and Executive branch want to do it again, that’s fine.
There’s nothing magical or mystical about nine members. Other developed countries have much larger Supreme Courts, which dilutes the ability of any one administration to shape it.
Until we come up with a way to uncorrupt the courts, sure. Currently, the SCOTUS is illegitimate.
You can’t change the number of justices on the Supreme Court.
Except that you can.
And they did. Eight times.
1789 - six justices
1801 - reduced to five justices
1802 - restored to six justices
1807 - seven justices
1836 - nine justices
1863 - ten justices
1866 - nine justices
1867 - eight justices
1869 - nine justices
Edgy take.
It’s really not, compared to destroying the existing system.
TIL expansion is destruction.
Indeed.
Your trolling sucks, bro.
The fuck are you talking about?
