    Lmao the autopen issue is just that Biden used an electronic signature, so now the pardons are invalidated? Guess I don’t own my house then, I’m not an organ donor, my student loans should be invalidated, my medical procedures were never authorized, etc…

            That would indeed destroy them in the process.

          Probably wouldn’t do that, capitalists are heavily invested in Student Loan Asset-Backed Securities (SLABS), basically the same as '08’s famous Mortgage Backed Securities but backed by student loans instead of mortgages. Whatever they would do in regards to student loans would be much more malicious against those who owe them
