I 100% believe this is a fatal gut shot to any sort of coherent, stable federal governance
shitty Reason columnists and Libertarian think tankers covertly on company payrolls will spend the next six straight months pretending critics of this decision are being hyperbolic, but I don't think the deadly impact on consumer protection, the environment, and public safety is even fathomable
and the feckless, "both sides" press coverage is going to fail utterly to properly explain the stakes of this ruling to the public, in part because the billionaire owners of a highly consolidated media support the total lobotomization of the regulatory state
now that they've fully defanging federal regulators, ensuring ANY attempt at reform is bogged down in perpetual legal bog, the corporatists and fascists can shift their cooperative focus toward crushing the last vestiges of state rights
everything is a local fight now

What this corrupt SCOTUS decision on the Chevron precedent should wake up Americans to is that it is imperative to reinstall the Democratic supermajority in the Senate that we had back when the EPA and laws like the Clean Water Act were passed.
I agree. Without the Chevron defence fossil fuel companies will have a free rein to pollute and if Trump is allowed to win the planet is literally done!!
@Snowshadow @GreenFire @KarlBode Exactly.
Even as a EU citizen, I'm not sure our own Eu law rules will be enough to block whatever could or will come from that derailed mind and his money acolytes.
@GreenFire @Snowshadow the problem is that as the wheels start to come off the shitty press and lots of right wing propaganda will muddy the waters of who and what is responsible
Probably be inundated with stories about how your water table was polluted by the wokes
we have no shared collective reality anymore and journalism is being crushed under bootheel
