The 30th would have been easier, since Johnson had already announced a run in the 33rd and she would have had to run against her in a Primary. If she had run in the 30th, Veasey and Johnson would have had a Primary for the 33rd.

21.02.2026 14:18 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Which is basically what that article says.
21.02.2026 05:51 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0It’s not hard, but I don’t think it’s nearly as effective as “we got blocked by SCOTUS, but here’s what we did accomplish despite that.”
21.02.2026 05:50 — 👍 5 🔁 0 💬 2 📌 0I don’t know that anyone other than the Supreme Court has to apologize for it not happening as intended.
21.02.2026 05:47 — 👍 11 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I’m not going to call you a liar, but I do think it’s a bit disingenuous to focus on PSLF when most of the forgiveness came from borrowers defense, which is in no way an obligation.
Republican Virginia Fox said Biden “tried to stretch every possible law" to fulfill his campaign promises.
Well, if the 99% rejection rate is accurate, they’re definitely an obligation that wasn’t being fulfilled until Biden relaxed the application rules.
And I’ll reiterate my point that having your attempt at fulfilling your promise blocked by SCOTUS isn’t the same as turning your back on a promise.
So I guess we can’t agree, because I think there’s a big difference between “breaking a promise and pretending you fulfilled it” and “having your attempt to fulfill your promise blocked by SCOTUS and then focusing on other ways to do as much as possible to help people.”
21.02.2026 05:36 — 👍 5 🔁 0 💬 2 📌 0Furthermore, it notes that just 7K borrowers had their loans canceled through Public Service Loan Forgiveness prior to Biden, with a 99% application rejection rate. Biden relaxed the rules, and now more than 1 million public servants have had their balances zeroed out.

21.02.2026 05:25 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I read that article and it doesn’t say what you’re claiming. For example, it says most of the loan forgiveness came from borrower defense.
21.02.2026 05:23 — 👍 8 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0That’s what the KPD thought in the late ‘20s. One might think that with hindsight we could say that labeling the Social Democrats their main enemy was a mistake.
20.02.2026 14:33 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0South Korean culture is fascinating because it's like "We make two things extremely well: Weapons and pop stars. One of these industries is the ruthless, blood-soaked byproduct of a nation whose soul was scarred by eternal war. The other is our defense industrial base, which is respected globally."
