    "In a remarkable reversal..."

    Yeah, really.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if he changed it again to add an opt-out provision, which would remove standing from that Indiana plaintiff.

      They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

        And therein lies the problem. It's not legislation, and it's not well crafted.

              While essentially admitting that they know this thing can’t stand up to any sort of legal challenge, so try to eliminate anybody with possible standing…

              I’m still not convinced that Congressional Republicans, while a minority, wouldn’t have standing to file on their own. But I’m also fairly certain they would rather have it as a campaign issue in November rather than squashing it in October and I’m not sure reversing course in January will be feasible.

                Why not? It’s not like it’s a law.

                    By January how many people will have had $10K-$20K knocked off their debt. It's one thing to stop the forgiveness before it happens, it's another thing to go ack and tell these people that you're putting $10K back on their ledger...
