Megyn Kelly goes after ‘snot-nosed kids’ who want Biden to cancel their student loan debt

Megyn Kelly had strong words for those who are pushing for President Joe Biden to forgive their student loans, suggesting that neither she nor any other taxpayer should be on the hook for the financial obligations of “snot-nosed” kids if the administration eventually acts to cancel their debt.

On Monday’s edition of her SiriusXM radio show, the former Fox News anchor addressed activist pressure on the White House to wipe the slate clean with calls for loan forgiveness coming from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, among others.

During her conversation with the hosts of the conservative podcast “Ruthless,” Kelly didn’t hold back on the entitled young people who want the government to assume the burden for their bad choices.

“Everything’s free, we should go back to our socialist roots and then the democrats won’t be facing a blood bath in November,” she asked her guests. “Didn’t you guys have someone pay for your college?”

Kelly then spoke of her own family’s struggles, noting that she and her siblings paid their loans back despite tragic circumstances.

“I think about it in my own life,” she said, “my audience knows that my dad died suddenly when I was 15 of a heart attack, and my mom already had two kids in college at that point, my brother and sister are older than I am, they’re in college, she’s trying to – he was only 45 – we were not, we weren’t rich to begin with so it’s not like he had some big, fat life insurance policy, He had like the bare minimum you have when you’re in your 40s and you… a professor, which is what he was,” she recollected.

“Anyway, what’d she do? She used the entirety of that payment to pay for the rest, what she could of my brother and sister’s college and my college education,” she said, “and all three of us had to take out loans on top of it, of course. So like do I think now that you know, I would have been better off if the federal government had stepped in,” Kelly continued.

“Look, it would have been nice but I don’t think the neighbors should have to pay for my college education,” Kelly said, “and my mom made a sacrifice. She could have been living off of that money, suddenly she didn’t have a two-income home, but she used it to help her children, like that’s what parents do, they scrimp and they save and they do what’s necessary to pay for things like education and we took out loans, too.”

“And then we paid those loans back, why should these snot-nosed kids today,” she said, “I’m sorry, the ones who really it, they can get loans right, but like, you point out a lot of these people are going to be these sort of college, Columbia elite graduates who are going to spend their years in journalism trying to shame half of America for doing absolutely nothing wrong,”

“Why should I be paying for their college education?” Kelly asked. “I don’t want to.”

On Tuesday, the White House caved to the pressure with multiple news outlets reporting that Biden will extend the pause on student loan repayments that was implemented as a result of COVID through August 31st, and with Democrats in dire political straits, it’s probably likely that the deadline will again be bumped further into the future so as to not depress voter turnout in the critical midterm elections this fall.

Ocasio-Cortez wasn’t satisfied and took to Twitter to gripe that it fell short of the cancellation of student loan debt that progressives have been demanding.

“I think some folks read these extensions as savvy politics, but I don’t think those folks understand the panic and disorder it causes people to get so close to these deadlines just to extend the uncertainty. It doesn’t have the affect people think it does,” the socialist diva wrote. “We should cancel them.”

Comrade Bernie also raged against Biden’s extension of the moratorium.

“Cancel student debt. All of it,” Senator Sanders wrote on Twitter, demanding action from the deeply unpopular leader who has yet to honor many of the key demands of the noisy “snot-nosed” progressive wing of the Democratic Party.

  1. It seems the education of these snot-nosed kids, didn’t teach them the definition of the word “LOAN” or they were too stupid to learn it. Or perhaps, they are so used to “FREE STUFF” that they never thought that a LOAN meant you actually had to repay it!

  2. Why is this so complicated ? Take out a loan – pay it back – cut and dried – plain and simple .

    1. Cancelling their debt would mean the taxpayers would have to pay it back; the same taxpayers who couldn’t afford to send their own children to college. This generation of college grads have no sense of responsibility.

  3. Yeh! Like I want to pay for their tuition after watching all that crap from their 2022 Spring Break in Florida. Seems the only thing being taught is “How to Party and Screw up a City 101”. They’re all a bunch of ungrateful brats who want everything handed to them instead of they, themselves working for it. She’s right! They’re all a bunch of snot-nosed kids who have found out if they yell loud enough and have a temper tantrum they can get their way. Pay you own bills. I have enough of my own!

  4. I have a SIMPLE SOLUTION!! Have whoever prints those “Biden I DID THAT” stickers print up a bunch of Stickers featuring The Segment of excrement OBLAMA pointing and saying “I DID THAT – you’re WELCOME”!!!

  5. Hek, even the UK no longer has free college. I had to pay my way, working 2 jobs. Make it free with taxpayer funding, tuition and fees will skyrocket further and kids will party more and expect a CEO’s salary if they graduate with a silly degree in gender studies or some such.

  6. Worked my butt off before and during college. Went to an affordable CC then to a state school. Then worked my butt off to rise up. Had a very nice affordable life. Had an up stream boss who attended Princeton and then Wharton (along with his house spouse) for their MBA. And whined constantly about student debt.That was their choice not mine. And like Ms Kelly i don’t want to.

  7. I am 73 years old and paid off every loan I ever signed, these whiny brats partied for 4-6 years, many got worthless degrees that qualify them to work the DrThru at MickeyD’s and want me to pay that too? Where were/are their parents?

  8. It was not MY choice that you go to college all you spoiled,lazy brats

    I’m NOT paying for your college education. .

  9. Why should Aerican taxpayers pay the loans of students who majored in 18th century French Literature that cost $200,000.00? If these “snot nose kids” really want an education, and not a 4 year degree in goofing off, then they can join the armed forces, spend 3 years serving their fellow Americans, and then have their education paid for by their fellow citizens. No loans, no debt to cancel. In other words, the right way to get an education if you cannot afford it. FJB

  10. I know there are a number of members of Congress who still have outstanding student loans and that suka, AOC, is one of them.

  11. You go to college to be a viable candidate for higher Pay! It’s a loan you are obligated to pay back! Democrats took it away from Banks who collected the debt in 2009 -2010! Maxine Waters was chastising bankers a few years ago of why they didn’t do a better job of collecting that debt! They had to remind that moron it was her failing the taxpayers in collecting that debt! No surprise Democrats want to wipe the slate clean because they suck at doing anything that would benefit taxpayers!
    How about no more loans until they do their job or turn the collection process over to the IRS or sell the debt back to the banks so they collect the money!
    When anyone becomes a Politician they should automatically have payments garnished from their lucrative paychecks!

  12. Forgiving student loans, benefits to illegal immigrants, reparations, and COVID payments to stay home are all taxpayer funded campaign money used by the DNC.

  13. Megyn is right regarding student loan forgiveness. I have lost what respect I had for her after learning that she has endorsed Billy Long for the Senate.

    Terrible choice.

  14. I worked three jobs, paid my tuition, graduated debt free … what are these snot-nosed kids complaining about … you took the credit, deal with it like adults …

  15. All those teen age lives lost in Normandy on D-Day to free Europe from Hitler, all the young men, who never had a chance to grow up because they lost their lives in foreign wars. These little parasites, wanting a free ride on the backs of the sweat of others.

  16. Dems are going to lose both houses this fall. Their continued focus on this issue is just another nail in the coffin of the leftists. You took out a loan, you need to pay the loan. It’s called being responsible and accountable for your actions. Apparently a new concept for the under 30 crowd. Going forward, the feds need to put in place a maximum amount for these federally guaranteed loans and it should be low – maybe 10k per year and a maximum of $50k or something like that. Before you start crying about how that doesn’t cover it…get a job and come up with the rest like everyone else did before these unlimited, unsecured loans became a thing….or maybe take your first two years at a cheap community college….or even (gasp) skip college all together. A plumber makes a whole lot more money than a highly educated barista.

    1. or go in the service, and have the government pay for your education after you serve FJB

  17. One of those ‘snot nosed kids” name is AOC … AOC is sitting on $17+ in college debt … she has a job paying over $174K a year … and a bank account with over $10 million dollars in it from her netflix deal for the show “Knock Down The House” … and her arrogant arse wants you an me to pay off her college debt. Yes, she wants the taxpayers to pay off her college debt.

    1. Isn’t that a conflict of interest to accept money from anybody! Looks like a bribe!
