White House Is Back to Shaming Members of Congress for Taking PPP Loans

It was back in 2022 when the White House settled on a way to push back against Republican members of Congress who opposed his (illegal) plan to forgive student loans. The White House started tweeting the amounts of PPP loans taken out by members of Congress who opposed student loan forgiveness.

As plenty pointed out at the time, Paycheck Protection Program loans were meant to allow businesses that were shut down by the government due to the COVID-19 lockdowns to continue to pay their employees. They had nothing to do with voluntarily taking out a loan to attend college.

President Joe Biden is back to bragging about how the Supreme Court tried to stop him from unilaterally canceling student debt: "That didn't stop us," he told a crowd in Wisconsin, vowing to continue defying the Supreme Court and buying more votes by forgiving student debt. "Your loans will be completely forgiven regardless of income, and even if you didn't graduate," Vice President Kamala Harris announced Tuesday.

Naturally, Republicans are pushing back against this unconstitutional buying of votes. But if they do, the White House is back to naming and shaming those who took out PPP loans during the pandemic to keep from going bankrupt. Small business owner Rep. Andrew Clyde had this to say:

Yep, the government forces you to close your business, and Congress passed a plan to keep people employed. That's exactly the same as canceling a student loan that was voluntarily taken out with the promise to pay it back.
