The letter from the Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School (coauthored by Merrill, Eileen Connor, and Deanne Loonin) argued that Congress granted the Secretary of Education authority to cancel or modify federal student loans.
While Reiwa has merit in his debate... you Elizondo have none.
Fascism is reserved for Trump and DeSantis. DeSantis would get his own personal militia in a heart beat expressed during his FL rein.

Congress has not passed a law that allows The President to forgive this specific Student Loan Debt
You're just parroting that fake Indian Elizabeth Warren's Plan. That's where your letter comes from. They can 'argue' it all they want. Especially when they are the ones getting PAID by such an action. The Secretary of Education does not have the authority to wave a magic wand and erase a trillion dollars in student loan debt.
Government Agencies having such broad powers has already been addressed by The Supreme Court

2. Section 109(b)(1) does not delegate legislative power to the EPA. When conferring decision making authority upon agencies, Congress must lay down an intelligible principle to which the person or body authorized to act is directed to conform. J. W. Hampton, Jr., & Co. v. United States, 276 U.S. 394, 409. An agency cannot cure an unlawful delegation of legislative power by adopting in its discretion a limiting construction of the statute.
