Biden’s rollback of student-loan-forgiveness plan pulls up the curtain on his Potemkin White House

Team Biden’s quiet decision last week to exclude millions of student-loan borrowers from its forgiveness program is the latest evidence that it’s running a Potemkin White House.

Thursday, the Department of Education said borrowers with privately held federal student loans will no longer qualify for President Joe Biden’s one-time loan-write-off program.

Why the change? At least partly because the Bidenites fear legal action, and excluding these borrowers might make it harder for anyone to successfully sue to stop it. But that’s practically an admission the whole program is legally dubious.

Indeed, just a year ago the Education Department admitted it lacked “the statutory authority” to forgive student loans en masse. Yet then Team Biden, under pressure from progressives and hoping to boost Dems’ hopes in the midterms, suddenly announced a huge forgiveness program, claiming it had the authority after all, under the post-9/11 HEROES Act.
