resident Joe Biden on Friday charged the Supreme Court with misinterpreting the U.S. Constitution when it struck down his $400 billion student loan forgiveness program and accused Republicans of snatching away people's hope with their hypocrisy on the issue.
In remarks at the White House, Biden said he was 'angry' about the decision but outlined several executive actions he was taking to help make it easier for borrowers to pay off their debts.
He said his new plans would save borrowers $1,000 a year, cap monthly payments at 5 percent of discretionary income a month, and forgive loan balances after ten years of repayments.
A defiant Biden argued he didn't give people 'false hope' with his $400 billion program that would have canceled $10,000 in student loan debt for those making less than $125,000 or households with less than $250,000 in income.
Supreme Court justices ruled 6-3 on Friday that Biden's proposal to wipe out debts for 26 million Americans at taxpayers' expense was unconstitutional and an overreach of his executive power.
The landmark ruling on the final day of the Supreme Court's term comes 24 hours after the justices decided colleges could no longer use race as a consideration in admissions in a case that sparked backlash from Biden.
Biden was scathing in his response. He repeatedly leaned over the podium as he spoke and dropped his voice to a whisper - a tactic he takes when he wants to make a point.
'I didn't give any false hope,' Biden snapped when a reporter asked him if he misled borrowers.
'The question was whether or not I would do even more than what was requested. What I did I thought was appropriate and was able to be done and would get done."

SCOTUS misinterpreted the Constitution. That’s just too rich.
Why didn’t SCOTUS seek the opinion of Constitutional expert Biden before ruling?
he used that ploy for votes - period. They NEVER intended to really fork over all that

Now Biden has deceived his college gifted whom he knows he lied with this BS.
“and forgive loan balances after ten years of repayments. “
Wasn’t that exactly what the the SC just ruled against?
