Joe Biden recently “forgave” certain student loans and by forgive, I mean we taxpayers are picking up the bill. Jihad Squad member, Ilhan Omar, is demanding that Biden forgive all student loans, including hers, which she could easily afford to pay off with her Congressional salary.
Here’s the NAACP and Omar tag-teaming a demand that we pay off her student loan:

Ilhan Omar graduated from North Dakota State University with a bachelor’s degree in political science in 2011. How much debt could she possibly have? Her 4-year education at NDSU probably cost around $40,000 and her being a black immigrant Muslim woman guarantees she got some pretty sweet aggrieved minority scholarships. Even if she didn’t, it’s been 11 years since she graduated and she should have paid this off by now.
Even more so because she is a U.S. Representative making $174,000 a year. This is her 4th year in office so she’s hauled in almost $700,000 for doing nothing. How is it possible that she hasn’t been able to pay off her meager student debt, making that kind of money?
Plus, Omar is super-corrupt and her husband is rich. Check this out from The NY Post:
Rep. Ilhan Omar’s election campaign helped keep her husband’s political consulting firm afloat last year, providing nearly 80 percent of the company’s income, according to a report.
The Minnesota Democratic congresswoman’s campaign committee gave the E Street Group — which is co-owned by her husband, Tim Mynett — more than $2.9 million over the course of the 2020 election cycle, the Washington Free Beacon said, citing federal campaign finance data.
Mynett and his partner, entrepreneur Will Hailer, received 146 checks from Omar’s camp over the course of the cycle, the Beacon said.
Mynett’s firm also received more than $600,000 in bailout money last year from government payouts to help small businesses cope with the economic impact of the global coronavirus pandemic, the paper said.
I checked, this isn’t the husband who is really her brother, it’s the married guy she had an affair with.
You gotta believe with all of the graft and corruption that Omar could find some cash to pay off her student loan, but no.
It’s complete bullshit for someone as wealthy as Ilhan Omar to expect working class taxpayers to pick up the tab for her education, but there’s also some ethics questions. Omar is using her position as a U.S. lawmaker to push something that will benefit her financially.
The reality of the situation is that most people with student debt are successful professionals so “forgiving” these loans is a giveaway to the upper-middle class and wealthy. And for all of those people who went deeply in debt to get a women’s study degree and now work at Starbucks, that’s your problem not ours.
There is $1.6 trillion in outstanding student loan debt in this country and making it go away would do the exact same thing as another unnecessary democrat spending bill: raise inflation. Not only does well-to-do Ilhan Omar want working class people to pay off a loan she took out under her own power, she wants everybody to pay $8 for a dozen eggs.
