BIDEN'S $ 400 BILLION BRIBE HEADED TO SCOTUS

Right just now Hiddin' Biden's plan to bribe people to vote for him by dumping $400 billion of student loan onto the taxpayers has been held up by the federal appeals court.  This matter will be argued before SCOTUS on February 28.  


There are apparently two main arguments being put forward by the pro-bribery people.  One is that the president does in fact have the authority on his own to pour $400 billion down the toilet.  The second is that it is somehow tied to the Covid-19 emergency.

The anti-bribery folks maintain that the president does not have the legal authority to spend that much money absent specific congressional appropriation.  The constitution seems to support that position.  They are also maintaining that whatever tenuous connection this notion might have to the plague it is about to be officially gone due to both economic improvement and the plague moving into an endemic mode.

The Biden scheme would kick down $20,000 for holders of Pell grants and up to $10,000 for other student loan borrowers who earn not more than $125,000 per year.
