A Republican-led effort to block one of President Joe Biden’s student loan debt relief programs in court has succeeded just days before it was set to go into effect.
Decisions by U.S. District Judges John Ross in Missouri and Daniel Crabtree in Kansas, both appointees of former President Barack Obama, on Monday sided with GOP state attorneys general in thwarting Biden’s Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) plan, according to Reuters.
The SAVE plan, which was set to go into effect on July 1, was initially announced by Biden in 2022 alongside a since-canceled larger plan that would have erased up to $20,000 in student loan debt for tens of millions of borrowers.
It’s the american citizens that got stung, not biden
Typical republican bullshit. All they want is suffering.
What ever happened to the loan forgiveness plan where all they were doing was correctly applying the law to loans that should have been legally forgiven already, but weren’t, due to bureaucracy?
Yeah, no. Fuck everything else. If SAVE sinks, I don’t vote Dem. My life is over if SAVE is reverted.
Get the fucking message, Biden? Time to fight back. You wanted me to hold my nose through Palestine. Fine.
But this? This is my red line.
Except this wasn’t done by the democrats… Literally the first sentence of the article.

You’re voting for the people who just put your head on the chopping block…
Don’t waste your time. They didn’t read it, because they want a narrative to peddle.
I always wonder if this was by design. What I mean is, Biden and them knew it would most certainly fail in this way, yet it looks good during the election year because “at least he tried”. I have no evidence for this, just tin foil hat speculation.
the supreme court literally rewrote an existing law to overturn the original ruling. Like it explicitly says “the debt can be forgiven in a crisis” and was used by the trump admin to halt interest payments the supreme court ruling was literally going “not like this!”. Read the dissent on that case it points out how insane the ruling is.
He prob wants to campaign on “I’ll get it through, just need a second term”
