Supreme Court Refuses to Stay a Lower Court's Blocking of Its Lawless, Unconstitutional Seizing of Taxpayer Funds to Pay the Student Loans of Democrat Deadbeats

The Biden-Harris Administration (I'm trying to tether Harris to the Administration in which she serves as VP! Aaah! Republican disinformation!) was previously rebuffed on this unconstitutional assertion of Executive Robbery. Biden-Harris asked them to pretty please reconsider and let them seize funds without Congressional authorization.

The Supreme Court, quoting Dr. Evil, said, "How about frickin' noo?"

CNN has the Sad! news.

The Supreme Court declined on Wednesday to lift a sweeping block on President Joe Biden's student loan repayment plan that aims to slash monthly payments and quicken the path to loan forgiveness.

The high court turned down a request from the Biden administration to put the plan back in play after lower courts blocked it this summer in a legal challenge to the plan brought by GOP-led states.

There were no noted dissents in the brief order.

Wednesday's order has no immediate impact on the 8 million borrowers currently enrolled in the plan, known as SAVE (Saving on a Valuable Education), which was implemented nearly a year ago. In response to the deepening legal fight over the plan, the Department of Education last month placed the borrowers in an interest-free forbearance during which they are not required to make monthly student loan payments.

The White House, Department of Justice and Department of Education did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The latest information for borrowers can be found on the agency's website.

In an unusual line in a brief order Wednesday, the court said that it "expects" that the 8th US Circuit Court of Appeals, which is considering the challenge to the plan, "will render its decision with appropriate dispatch" -- signaling that it wants the legal proceedings to play out in the lower court before it steps in on its emergency docket.

The fate of the plan, which the Congressional Budget Office estimates would cost $276 billion, remains uncertain as courts consider two legal challenges. Last month, Alaska, South Carolina and Texas asked the high court to maintain a partial block on the program while the states' larger legal challenge to it unfolds. In a separate order Wednesday, the court also declined that request.

Student loan forgiveness was a key component of Biden's 2020 presidential campaign, a concession to progressives who supported more liberal candidates in the Democratic primary. But the White House has repeatedly been stymied, including with an important ruling last year in which the court's 6-3 conservative majority held that Biden had exceeded his authority by attempting to forgive hundreds of billions of student debt.

A federal court on Tuesday blocked the Biden-Harris Administration's lawless plan to issue green cards to illegals until he can sort out this newest power-grab.

A federal judge blocked the Biden administration's "parole in place" program, which would have offered green cards to illegal immigrant spouses of U.S. citizens.

Key Details:

U.S. District Judge J. Campbell Barker issued a stay on the program, halting it for at least two weeks.

The program faced a lawsuit from 16 Republican-led states, spearheaded by Texas.

The program aimed to allow illegal immigrant spouses to remain in the U.S. and apply for green cards without leaving the country.

A federal judge in Texas has temporarily blocked the Biden administration's "parole in place" program, which was designed to provide a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrant spouses of U.S. citizens. U.S. District Judge J. Campbell Barker issued the administrative stay on Monday, pausing the program for a minimum of two weeks while he considers the legal challenge brought by a coalition of 16 Republican-led states.

Judge Barker's decision to halt the program reflects the significance of the legal claims raised by the conservative states. "The claims are substantial and warrant closer consideration than the court has been able to afford to date," Barker stated, as reported by the Associated Press.
