Felttrip US Supreme Court blocks student loan forgiveness plan
aw geez
BombOmOmAmerica, can you explain?
This plan required an act of Congress, the president acted unilaterally and illegally in instituting the plan. The president isn't a dictator, he must go through congress for quite a number of things.
wrong
The president acted as he did and the system of checks and balances played a role.
He is absolutely allowed to do that. It is not “illegal”
He isn't going to be put in jail or anything no. He attempted to use a power he does not have. If the president wants this program to become a thing, an act of congress is required.
I mean, he's literally not. That's the whole point of the ruling.
What he did was deemed "illegal" by the court, which means he can't do it...
The amount of mental gymnastics this court has used to strike down years of president is insane. Can anyone actually still look at their rulings anymore and genuinely say that they aren't just making rulings based on their personal beliefs and bias?
