Trump just "restored" student loan debt...

To the benefit of Sallie Mae:

No one hates Americans but loves AmeriKKKa more than republiKKKans...
I can discharge all debt through bankruptcy EXCEPT student loan debt

WHY IS THAT
Why should we pay attention to red states?

Everybody in this country just lost access to student loan forgiveness because of the state of Missouri.

You don’t need a coup when you can bribe red state AGs.

it is actually kind of bananas how unitary executive theorists have taken a straightforward clause requiring the president to "faithfully execute the laws" and transformed it into a grant for the exercise of limitless unenumerated power.
The Take Care Clause was a byproduct of the lessons learned from the Glorious Revolution that the executive should not be able to dispense with the law promulgated by the legislature. It was not a constitutional provision to empower the executive branch— but to constrain it!

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison
