Wade. Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., kicked off the hearing with a warning that if the landmark 1973 decision legalizing abortion is in fact overturned -- as was indicated in a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion -- the impact will be "devastating." "Making decisions about when and how to start a family is essential to women's lives," Nadler said. "The right to decide whether to carry or terminate a pregnancy is central to life, liberty and equality. It is the very essence of what it means to have bodily autonomy, which is a prerequisite for freedom."" ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksMay 19

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned over the weekend that means tests and other limits on student debt cancellation that Biden administration officials are reportedly considering risk denying relief to a significant number of vulnerable people, a potential moral and political disaster. "I don't believe in a cutoff, especially for so many of the frontline workers who are drowning in debt and would likely be excluded from relief," Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) told the Washington Post in response to the newspaper's story detailing internal White House discussions of income caps to restrict who is eligible for any federal student debt cancellation."

Right wingers are railing against student debt forgiveness by harping on the need to follow through with contractual deals and the need to continue working until you die like everyone else before you. Regardless, President Biden is still dragging his feet on the issue and has openly said that he is not considering $50,000 of student debt. April 29

Read more here: Greg Gutfeld Is Willing To ‘Go To War’ To Stop Student Loan Forgiveness: ‘You’re Paying For It’ - https://uproxx.com/viral/greg-gutfeld-student-loan-forgiveness-war/ "Greg Gutfeld is so opposed to student loan forgiveness that he’s willing to “go to war” to stop it. During Tuesday night’s episode of The Five, Gutfeld chimed in with his thoughts on the real worth of a college degree. Naturally, the conservative leaning talk show wasn’t gung-ho about higher education. Gutfeld described the college experience as “a six-figure cover charge to get you into the bar of life.” He then quipped, “And the hangover is you pay it off later.”" ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksApril 20

After President Biden extended the pause on student loan repayments until August 31st, Fox News host Jeanine Pirro took advantage of the situation to call debt relief seekers as “lazy” and to just “get a job” to pay off their loans. April 7

Megyn Kelly looks like a clown as she mocks the student loan forgiveness program and college students who are drowning in debt. John Iadarola and Brett Erlich break it down on The Damage Report. Read more here: Megyn Kelly Is Throwing A Tantrum Over Student Loan Forgiveness: ‘These Snot Nose Kids Today’ - https://uproxx.com/viral/megyn-kelly-student-loan-forgiveness-aoc-biden/ "With masking no longer an issue for Megyn Kelly to rail against — They hide her beautiful, flawless skin she spent years perfecting, and clearly, that’s what’s important during a pandemic. — the conservative turned her attention to the right’s favorite bogeyman: Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. During Monday’s episode of The Megyn Kelly Show, the disgraced former NBC host went on a tear against AOC’s recent push for President Joe Biden to pass sweeping student loan forgiveness via executive order. (Note: Today, Biden did postpone the restart of payments again through the end of August.) Kelly, like most conservatives, is against forgiving student loans, particularly if going to college does nothing but turn out “snot nose” elitists who hate America. (An interesting description considering Kelly’s own father was a college professor.) The former Fox News personality also played the “when I was your age” card by explaining how her family struggled to pay for college educations for her brothers and sisters, yet they still repaid their debts." ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksApril 6

Now his Administration is effectively canceling student debt on the installment plan. That’s the import of the Administration’s announcement Wednesday that it is again extending the pause on student loan payments and interest accrual, this time through August. Mr. Biden said the economy is stronger than ever and the country can safely “return to more normal routines,” but student borrowers apparently still aren’t ready to return to making normal loan payments." ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurksApril 6
