> As then-Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi explained:
“People think that the President of the United States has the power for debt forgiveness. He does not. He can postpone. He can delay. But he does not have that power. That has to be an act of Congress.” Press Conference, Office of the Speaker of the House (July 28, 2021).
- Simulacra 3y agohuh. Imagine that... I have read horrific statements in the congressional record by Joe Biden over the years opposing student loan forgiveness, gays, minority children, and criminal justice reform. It seems all politicians follow the same rule: Forget anything we have ever said or done, just agree and do what we say today.
