Summary

Senator Marsha Blackburn discusses the acknowledgment of the China COVID lab leak theory going mainstream and Biden student debt forgiveness plan being heard the Supreme Court. The U.S. Senator from Tennessee slams the Biden administration plan over ‘separation of powers’ issues but also that targeted demographics of recipients with “fewer than 15% of Americans hold student loan debt. And out of that number, 40% of those loans are held by high income earners, people with advanced degrees, PhDs, doctors, different physicians, and then lawyers. 10% of that is held by individuals that are lower income earners. So this really is what you would call a gift to the rich.”

worth examining.

But today, all eyes are on the Supreme Court where, beginning of two days of arguments,

0:47.9

are focused on whether Joe Biden had the legal authority, the constitutional authority to

0:54.2

grant forgiveness to $400 billion plus of student loans.

0:59.0

And a lot of people beginning to look at this and the early questioning lots of skepticism,

1:06.2

lots of skepticism about the illegal authority here, starting right with the Chief Justice,

1:13.1

John Roberts, who said, there's so much money, you think maybe the Congress should have

1:17.4

been involved in improving it since the appropriations authority was given to the Congress.

Lots of other tough questions that Biden and administration faced, a very difficult

questions from these conservative justice, particularly a lot of questions.

And here's the reason why.

1:33.8

It's only been a little less than a year since the Supreme Court told President Biden and
