Yeah. What asshole is going to blame someone else?

I blame the Democrats in Congress for not passing a bill to forgive debt through the Senate.

The Biden executive order was blatantly unconstitutional, conservative SCOTUS super majority or not. Congress needs to get off their ass. Once they pass it in the Senate we can blame the House GOP until it lands on Biden’s desk.

Please explain how the Secretary of Education using powers explicitly granted by an act passed by Congress is unconstitutional. Or is that just a word you like to use to mean "something I don't agree with and have been told to hate"?

Because the powers were never granted by the congressional act…

Do you know what holding your politician accountable means?

Republicans get what they ask... what do you get for your vote?
