I do not get how these 6 states were determined to have standing in the first place? Isn't the whole US justice system predicated on the fact that you need to experience direct or indirect harm, be an actually involved party for you to be able to sue? They're federal loans, so federal money, where does their standing come from?

You think any of this matters to fundamentalists in robes? They're the scum of the Earth, and Biden is too gutless to take them on, and had the gall to say he has a 'fear of politicizing' the court.

The US is beyond redemption.
