OT: 4 Cops Arrested in Breonna Taylor murder

[Pointgod]

A couple of points highlighted by Kyle. One, the cap on interest at 5% is HUGE. Two, it also applies to graduate student loans. Nice.

I've been hard on Joe but I think the recent accomplishments are crucial when you tie them into (1) the republicans' support for the insurrectionists and the cover up (it's hurting republicans at the polls); (2) declining gas prices (was never Biden's fault to be begin with); (3) a leveling off of inflation with a possibility of deflating; and Dobbs (Supreme Court decision overruling Roe v. Wade). I'm thinking and hoping that we may pick up a couple of seats in the Senate, which would neuter Manchin and Sinema. I don't know about the House though there was a NY State special election for a congressional House seat that just flipped to a Democrat, which is a very good sign.

Never thought I’d see the day the Kyle Kulinski give Biden any kind of credit. The world is truly upside down. But you’re right that 5% cap is huge for student loan borrowers. I’m cautiously optimistic for the midterms

We progressives don't care who passes these policies; just pass the damn policies.

Here is a good in-depth analysis about what Biden has done on the student loan front. He was doing a lot, even before this announcement. Hopefully people realize this and vote accordingly. Both parties are not the same.

Not related to Breonna, but lots of posts aren't and this seems to be a hodge-podge of all things political.

Usually, a president can't spend money by executive order, but Biden used a "state of emergency" claim, (Covid), to write his Student Loan Debt Cancellation bill by executive order. That's how he did it.

I'm sure several people here already knew that, but I didn't. I just read it and I get it now. I didn't know how he could have done it by executive order. Interesting bit of political maneuvering. The Repubs will likely try to challenge this in court, maybe in a year or two when Covid is less of a problem. The far-right-religious supreme court's take on this will be interesting to see.

I didn’t either. Interesting.

I read the comments and then watched the video. I agree with the other comments and think that the (Black) officer was being sarcastic towards the PD and not Breonna. I thought it was kinda weird that a brother would diss Breonna like that to begin with but you never know these days. What was your take?

It’s hard to say without context, but either way, it’s in poor taste. He had to go.

Well, if it was sarcasm and he was making a political point, firing him is a civil rights violation (First Amendment). If he has evidence that officers gloated about killing civilians, etc., then this can blow up in the City of Louisville's face in a big way.

This is why we need independent state commissions to adjudicate police misconduct cases. The particular PD cannot be entrusted to police themselves and neither can the local DA's Office that works with that PD every goddamn day.

Shot for being Black in bed with a vape pen. That's right. Anything in your (i.e. a Black person's) hand is now a reason for the police to shoot and kill you. And then when the victim is writhing in pain, the cop/shooter is yelling "Hands! Hands! Let me see your hands! (so I can shoot you again!)" Fcking cops, I hate every fcking one of them.

Most people don’t realize that Biden has cancelled the most student loan debt of any President. Student loan debt has been and can be cancelled for a variety of reasons and is often targeted. I think it was smart and probably more legally sound not to do this through executive order because theoretically another President could just undo it. I can’t imagine this will be popular to sue but if Republicans do that the left needs to call the right wing bull out.
