BREAKING: Supreme Court agrees to consider limiting EPA's authority to curb greenhouse gases from power plants, will hear appeals from coal-mining companies and Republican-led states

A reporter discusses it...

There is a very real chance that the Supreme Court will soon prohibit the EPA from limiting greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. This is a horrifying grant.

To be clear: The Supreme Court may not only deny the EPA authority to regulate greenhouse gases from power plants, but also prohibit Congress from delegating that authority to the EPA in the first place.

    I know that the democrats aren’t any better than conservatives and all that

    The GOP justices gave the country and Biden the middle finger on the Texas anti-abortion law because they knew Biden would never pack the court. And now they're doing it again. And it's petrifying that they are just getting started.

    If Biden packed the court - he'd put on justices who believed in science and the danger of climate change and dem spending on climate would be protected. Anyway - even if you (the person reading this) disagrees with me or says it doesn't matter much - this is an academic point. Biden will never do it.

        It’s bit of Chomsky’s take on anti-politics as exercised in the US since the 70s and the neoliberal turn.
