Joe Biden, defender of democracy, loves shredding norms when those norms stand between him and his brazen efforts to buy votes. 

Just look at his latest student debt “forgiveness” ploy — and keep in mind: It’s not forgiveness, he’s just making other people who never took out any loans pay for them.

Some $7.4 billion of debt among 277,000 borrowers is being foisted off on America at large, whether you went to college or not — a transfer with no real legal basis nor the approval of Congress. 

The Supreme Court rightly slapped down his $430 billion mega-sellout in June 2023 over its absurd use of a post-9/11 law meant to help active-duty military avoid loan troubles. 

But that didn’t stop Good Time Joe.

He’s done round after round after round of dubiously legal mini-jubilees ever since, including:

And that’s not all! The White House earlier this week teed up another big meatball, very similar to the one the Supremes killed.

Biden loves to insist that paying off affluent blue voters somehow helps all Americans. 

But that argument comes straight from clown college.

The move, like all handouts, hurts the hardworking through higher taxes or higher national debt.

Worse, in this case, it will encourage colleges to keep jacking up their prices far faster than inflation, since it implicitly promises future handouts to offset those skyrocketing costs. 

Worst of all, it’s a blatant middle finger to the Supreme Court and Congress. 

In other words, he’s throwing over the system of checks and balances essential to American democracy that his party comrades claim to treasure so deeply. 

Wreck that balance and you wreck our republic, pure and simple. 

That Biden’s proposing to do so simply to enable his greasy “Vote Joe” graft changes this from a cheap stunt into a political obscenity.
