Nebraska:<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOur government has spent TRILLIONS to bail out the big banks and the CEOs who crashed our economy. Our government cancelled MILLIONS in pandemic loans for Members of Congress. Yet SCOTUS is saying we cannot cancel some of the student loan debt for working people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis is just ridiculous.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cToday\u2019s ruling is just one of many arbitrary rulings that have been handed down by this extremist court this term. It is becoming crystal clear that some of these \u201cJustices\u201d are laser-focused on doing the bidding of their rich donors who fly them around the world on their private jets, take them out on their mega yachts, and buy their families\u2019 homes in sweetheart deals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThese Justices don\u2019t care about the rule of law. This is a YOLO court, and if they\u2019re wondering why so many Americans no longer have trust in the institution, they have only themselves to thank.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false}}
