Joe Biden’s Student Loan Bailout Plan in Danger Based on Oral Arguments at Supreme Court:

The Supreme Court signaled it will likely put the final dagger in Joe Biden’s unconstitutional student loan bailout program.

Joe Biden unilaterally announced a massive forgiveness of student loans in August to buy the Gen Z-Millennial vote in the 2022 midterms.  Biden canceled up to $10,000 in student debt for borrowers who earn $125,000 a year or less and up to $20,000 for recipients of Pell Grants.

The 8th US Circuit Court of Appeals in November extended a block on Joe Biden’s student loan bailout plan.  The Supreme Court left the block in place while they hear oral arguments and deliberate.  The highest court of the land on Tuesday heard oral arguments on Biden’s student loan bailout plan.

After a few hours of arguments, the conservative justices signaled they were not on board with Biden’s bailout plan.

Just for the record, the electricity grid in South Africa has not collapsed. Electricity users are subjected to various levels of “load shedding”, which practically means a power cut of two to four hours a day.

I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised by erroneous media coverage. Old school journalists have a sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek saying: “Never let the facts get in the way of a good story”. Nowadays, however, I suspect journalists get tips from lawyers and politicians on how to make fiction appear truthful.

Although there is ongoing maintenance to some badly neglected infrastructure, and the politicians who run Eskom (the state-owned power supplier) manipulate the supply for various purposes, the grid is still up and running. At the moment, Eskom is applying for an 18% consumer price increase, and they use classic fear-mongering tactics every year about this time, by increasing the daily blackout periods to get the price hike approved.

By simply selling the enterprise to the private sector, all our electricity problems would be solved within months. But that would rob the government of an easy means of theft and corruption.

Thanks for the update of the situation there.  Even 2 to 4 hours a day of constantly being without power must be a pain to deal with!

This one end time watcher in South Africa that I follow on another forum can’t log in to the forum.  She text a friend to notify them of her situation so she must be living in the harder hit zone of “Stage 6”?

 

Reuters has this article some areas are affective more than others.

South Africa's Eskom ramps up power cuts to 'Stage 6'
Feb 20, 2023

The "Stage 6" power cuts, the worst outage level on record, require up to 6,000 megawatts to be shed from the national grid, and mean up to 10 hours a day without power for some South Africans …

Speaking about power grid going down … here is Nelson Walter’s latest youtube on the subject.  Keep in mind he is not a pre tribber so the ending part of his suggestions on what to do enduring thru the calamities I don’t believe it will be for the church, but the left behind.

 

Are Klaus Schwab and WEF Planning A Grid Shutdown to Cause a Great Reset?

Thanks for that update Paul. It’s good to hear from people actually living in the situation instead of the press, which none of us trust anymore. I pray the Lord will keep His hand of protection over you and your loved ones!
