On Saturday, President Joe Biden took to Twitter to post an image that had the appearance of a text message or possible social media Direct Message thanking him for his student loan forgiveness which read, "Thank you Mr. President. At 51 years old, my husband and I can finally start saving for our first home."

Reactions were quick to scrutinize the target rich nature of the message, both in its content and credibility. Songwriter Five Times August wrote, "This person is as old as you’ve been in government. Which goes to show how little you’ve done for half a century that a single text message is all you have to show for yourself. You are worthless."

On August 24, President Joe Biden announced that he was canceling up to $10,000 in student loan debt, and up to $20,000 for borrowers who received Pell Grants, a move that will cost taxpayers somewhere between $300 billion and $980 billion over the next 10 years.

Accompanying the picture, Biden wrote, "Take a look at this message I received – because of student loan forgiveness, Americans will be able to crawl out from under unsustainable debt and finally start thinking about saving for their first home."

In response, AEI Senior Fellow Marc Thiessen wrote, "So working class Americans who never went to college are helping to pay for their home."

Further, DM's can only be sent to the president's official account by users that he follows, and he only follows 12 people.

Tim Young said, "Umm... which of the 12 people you follow on here sent it to you?"

The credibility of the image was further questioned by talk show host Kimberly Klacik who wrote, "This text is clearly fake. Even the heart emoji."

Similarly Matthew Foldi wrote, "Things are so bad for the White House’s student loan bailout that they’re photoshopping texts Biden is pretending to receive."

Ghostwriter Joshua Lisec said, "You ghostwrite your own message and this is the best you could do? Make it believable next time, sir."

"Thank you Mr President for raising the retirement age to 100," said Zerohedge, noting the dubious financial standing of the supposed 51-year-old messenger.

Biden's student loan forgiveness translates to roughly $2000 per taxpayer using the lower end estimates from the Penn Wharton Budget Model.

Nearly 45 percent of people who took out federal student loans would have the entirety of their federal student loans canceled under this action and 95 percent of borrowers benefit from the move.
