Its great that Biden is doing this for sure, the problem is that everyone is going to be on edge with every subsequent election unless a permanent solution is found. It makes you think its a tactical decision, another charge for "if [R] wins you will immediately be in debt for more than you are worth and can't discharge it through bankruptcy". Politically, it smart because you energize a lot of people, but a good chunk of those people see through that poo poo so its not viable long term. The best thing the dems can do is as its about to expire is to make a hard push for long term solutions.

That's my hope-- delaying a delayable thing while the immediate emergencies are taken care of, and a comprehensive legislative proposal is worked on.

From what I’m reading, he needs congress to actually cancel student debt. He can just pause payments like he’s doing now. And even the cancellation plan was only up to $50k. I’m not saying we shouldn’t keep pressing, but loving complaining about good things when his presidency is 24 hours old just makes me think that people just don’t want to be happy about anything.

No, he can cancel them unilaterally. Or cancel the 50k unilaterally. And it would have taken exactly the same amount of effort it did to pause repayments.

Politico 1) leans right and 2) is peak "access journalism" for people that want to push an agenda.

There are two budget reconciliation opportunities this year, so it is also entirely plausible they try and do a bipartisan thing with some moderates and then renconcile. Dems control the schedule so it can take as long or as little time as they need.

It's day 1.5, let it play out for just a little while before assuming the worst.

Legislation that has a few R votes will be less of a time-suck down the road when the senate flips again. It has benefits beyond "optics"

Yeah, I want to be deeply cynical, but this Twitter person is the author of the Politico article, and their specific sourcing in it is:

“Our Democratic sources say”

“Biden is, as one person called it,”

Okay, so unnamed sources of questionable and unclear standing?

“Biden aides reached out to moderate GOP Sen. LISA MURKOWSKI of Alaska this week, and Democratic Sen. JOE MANCHIN of West Virginia says he hopes to talk to them over the weekend”

So they have info that Biden aides spoke at some point to Murkowski, and that Manchin is hoping he’ll call? I don’t want to compromise my ideals, but simply reaching out to someone doesn’t irk me too much.

“Many Democrats privately concede that the massive immigration bill Biden introduced on Day One was mostly symbolic — a gesture to advocates that’s unlikely to come to fruition. But on the Senate floor Wednesday, CHUCK SCHUMER — who helped write and pass a sweeping immigration bill in 2013 — said doing so again was a “very high priority” and “one of the most important things a Democratic Congress can do.””

We have (again, unnamed and of unclear standing) supposed private concessions that they haven’t done enough yet, and Schumer saying they want to do more? Not exactly damning.

Overall, poo poo article, poo poo tweet!

Fair enough. I think what I read is that Biden wants congress to do it, which seems consistent with a lot of things he does. It will be something he’ll have to be pushed on then.

Unless there is a city in Texas named Pittsburgh he's referring to, it really is funny for a Senator from Texas to pick such a dark blue city in Pennsylvania just because of the alliteration. Although as evidenced by the challenges to election results, he is deeply concerned with Pennsylvanians.

Police said Brown used the stolen money to buy two cars, clothes, guns and new shoes. Prior to his arrest, the teen reportedly totaled a Chevrolet Camaro that he bought, Flynn said.
