TOPEKA — President Joe Biden on Monday announced new steps to help more than 30 million people from student loan debt.

On social media, Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach criticized the plan and posted a recent interview he did to explain why he's against Biden's effort.

Young voters have been impatient for Biden to follow through on his campaign promise to slash debt after the U.S. Supreme Court foiled his initial plan last year. The new plan is smaller and would expand federal student loan relief to new categories of borrowers.

Biden said he wanted to “give everybody a fair shot” and the “freedom to chase their dreams” as he lamented the rising cost of higher education.

1. Just how does he have standing

to sue? I guess that no longer matters for this corrupt court.

2. Biden's just following God's word, Kris.

(Deuteronomy 15:1-2) "At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts. This is how it is to be done: Every creditor shall cancel any loan they have made to a fellow Israelite. They shall not require payment from anyone among their own people, because the Lord's time for canceling debts has been proclaimed."

3. What is wirh all these grinches that don't want anyone to get any student loan relief?

I don't get it. Who does this hurt? More to the point, how does this hurt the state of Kansas or the Kansas AG, and what gives him standing to file this suit?

This just seems pointlessly mean-spirited to me.

4. Think what it is more than anything, Kris Kobach likes to see his name in the news.

Remember he ran TSF's voter fraud investigation.

5. This has become a party line issue.

The stated reasons are all bullshit of course. The real reason is that it would benefit a large number of people, almost all of whom can vote.

6. Another reason for grateful votes to turn out at the polls! Sorry, Charlie!
