Replying to Rusp #rusp. Because I’m sure Reddit supported that
Funilly, it seems they disagree with race based and want it to be family income based

the solution is to send all the money to me personally and then there will be no problems that are important
I think we need a real genius to handle the money (no offense pirate). Someone go look up elementary school report cards nation wide to see who is most qualified
Nice semon inferno
A college systematically marked every Asian applicant with -20 (on their numerical scale for admissions) and unlike past Supreme Court cases where it's just one white girl bitching about the process being unfair/rigged, this time it was obviously bad enough that they ruled it unconstitutional
that's my very lightly informed summary
doesn't say applications have to be race-blind or anything gay like that, but that even veiled systems that promote one race over another are illegal
in the case they ruled on, the -20 points for being asian was called "bad attitude" or something like that
I was interested, final vote was 6-2
I never pay attention to the couts, how have they ruled on 20+ cases this month alone
some of these are pretty major too
there's was a 7-2 ruling on threats being protected by the 1st amendment (in most cases)
“The State must prove in true-threats cases that the defendant had some subjective understanding of his statements’ threatening nature,” Justice Elena Kagan wrote for the majority.
you can say something intending it to be hurtful, shocking, vulgar, demeaning, or otherwise inflict harm
but you need to show provable premeditation that you intended that statement to cause true harm
some stalker in Colorado argued successfully, that's a nice win for free speech
Counterman sent a Colorado musician as many as 1,000 messages during a two-year span that began in 2014. She ignored his messages and repeatedly blocked him, but he continued to send messages that implied he was watching the woman, was romantically interested in her and was frustrated by her lack of response.

Student loan forgiveness is dead
6-3 vote
“The Secretary’s comprehensive debt cancellation plan cannot fairly be called a waiver – it not only nullifies existing provisions, but augments and expands them dramatically,” Roberts wrote. “However broad the meaning of ‘waive or modify,’ that language cannot authorize the kind of exhaustive rewriting of the statute that has taken place here.”
The White House sought to use the HEROES Act authority to waive the debt.
Roberts said the government needed direct authorization from Congress.
“The question here is not whether something should be done; it is who has the authority to do it.”
from some article I found
no, 6-3
oh lol
he uses the jew name extension I assume
the ruling is 100% just "this is legal, if you make congress do it, stop trying to use random laws to force this through"
and then Biden responded by
Biden is retarded
I really don't understand what Biden's doing
is the point to make dem voters mad by continually fucking up loan forgiveness?
I assume its political posturing
"See I tried everything I could, its just the republican judges who are fucking you over"
