The Supreme Court is taking up a partisan legal fight over President Joe Biden’s plan to wipe away or reduce student loans held by millions of Americans.

Twenty-six million people have applied and 16 million have been approved to have up to $20,000 in federal student loans forgiven, the Biden administration says. The program is estimated to cost $400 billion over 30 years.

Without it, loan defaults would dramatically increase when the pause on loan payments ends no later than this summer, the administration says. Payments were halted in 2020 as part of the response to the coronavirus pandemic. Dozens of borrowers came from across the country to camp out near the court on a soggy Monday evening in hopes of getting a seat for the arguments. Among them was Sinyetta Hill, who said that Biden's plan would erase all but about $500 of the $20,000 or so she has in student loans.

Social media needs to be policed — just not by the Supreme CourtSupreme Court Justice Elena Kagan drew laughs last week when she said about herself and her colleagues, “You know, these are not like the nine greatest... 😂 That's what they all say...those who want to be the proxies of the government that are used to spy on citizens and squelch their free speech.

How a Supreme Court justice's paragraph put the Voting Rights Act in more dangerJustice Neil Gorsuch tacked on a handful of sentences to a 2021 Supreme Court ruling, planting the seeds of a legal fight that could further weaken Voting Rights Act protections for people of color. Yeah, you people are independent 🤣🙄🤮 What are these protections they are being stripped of? Never specific examples… just vague statements of doom and gloom… which is contrary to recent election turnouts. It seems this argument is detached from reality. And why wouldn't he? What possible consequences does he face? Lifetime appointment, almost 100% guarantee you won't be impeached so why wouldn't they become radicalized?
