West Va. v. EPA is out!  Opinion:  https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-1530_n758.pdf



Time to freakin' Celebrate!!!!!!!!

I don't think many Briefers understand how wonderful a SCOTUS move this is.  I dealt with EPA, state, and local agencies for over 30 years.  Many considered themselves the Environmental Gestapo.  Many did interpretive decisions and dealings on the fly.  Want to know why so much of our industry moved off shore?  Yep, you guessed it.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

:yowsa: I fully concur! Yet it still pisses me off that Trump was not allowed to set Obama policies aside but Biden gets to set aside Trump policies.

That’s because the Left believes they are the default for everything. And anyone that pushes back against them are illegitimate.

They also believe that any EO and legislature they sign and pass are Holy Writ never to be questioned or reversed.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Yeah! But the freekin Supreme Court should not agree with them!

That means ALL of them!

Yes, Bigun, and they are right.  Not as a matter of policy, but as a matter of law.  We fought very hard to get a court that would interpret laws, not make them.  Do not turn like the Left and expect the courts to enforce your policy preferences if the Legislative branch has not made them into law.

If Trump had the power to establish the remain in Mexico policy without Congressional action, Biden has the power to rescind it without Congressional action. 

I agree with you, remain in Mexico was a good policy, but the courts making law and policy, rather than interpreting laws and adjudicating conflicts between laws and between laws and the Constitution, is what gave us Roe, Casey, and Obergefell.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Top Biden Officials Reveal Plans To Continue Pushing Climate Agenda If Supreme Court Blocks EPA

Leading Biden officials outlined their methods to keep pushing the administration’s climate agenda if the Supreme Court limits the powers of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Wednesday.

The Supreme Court is likely to weaken the Biden administration’s efforts to limit carbon dioxide emissions in West Virginia v. EPA, with several of the justices having probed the extent of EPA’s authority in oral arguments. President Joe Biden’s senior officials remain confident in their ability to advance the administration’s aggressive environmental agenda by using the Clean Air Act and other government powers.

Government has limits.  Those limits are defined by the US Constitution and laws passed by Congress and signed by the President.

There has been Executive overreach for the past 22 years, and, now the limited government pedulum is swinging the other way.

Executive Orders and Legal Precedents are no substitute for laws.

Republicans held 55 senate seats when Roberts was nominated.  They could have confirmed just about anyone.  Samuel Alito was among those passed over. 

Thanks Dumbya.

The Supreme Court sharply curtails the authority of the EPA to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions that cause climate change. In a 6-3 ruling, the court sides with conservative states and fossil-fuel companies in adopting a narrow reading of the Clean Air Act.— SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) June 30, 2022

The Supreme Court ALLOWS the Biden administration to terminate the controversial Trump-era asylum policy known as "remain in Mexico." Red states argued that Biden was obliged to keep the policy, but SCOTUS says in a 5-4 ruling that the administration can end it.

Just in: In an election case out of North Carolina, SCOTUS agrees to review the "independent state legislature" theory next term. Under that theory, state legislatures have broad power to set rules for federal elections, even if state courts say those rules are unconstitutional.

The North Carolina election case is Moore v. Harper. SCOTUS also adds two other new cases to its docket for next term: Percoco v. U.S. (a case about honest-services fraud brought by a former Andrew Cuomo aide) and Ciminelli v. U.S. (a case about federal wire fraud).

BREAKING: The Supreme Court is taking up an election integrity case involving the "independent state legislature theory." The ruling could curtail the power of state courts to say that election rules set by the legislature are unconstitutional, such as what happened in PA.

Justice Elena Kagan wrote in her dissent on the EPA case "The Court appoints itself—instead of Congress or the expert agency—the decision maker on climate policy.  I cannot think of many things more frightening."

Ummm, it specifically returns the decision making to Congress.

This one is of great import @Right_in_Virginia

Let's see what the constitution says on the matter.

Article II

Section 1

Quote
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct..

Don't see anything about courts in that.

Article I

Section 4.


Quote
The times, places and manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each state by the legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by law make or alter such regulations, except as to the places of choosing Senators.

Still not finding anything about courts.  Perhaps someone can direct me to that.

Biden v. Texas: Remain in Mexico May End,
But Main Issue Is Unresolved


Washington, D.C. (June 30, 2022) - The Supreme Court's decision in the Remain in Mexico case leaves the main question unresolved.

The Court finds that the Biden administration may end the program (formerly known as the Migrant Protection Protocols, or MPP) and the lower court's injunction against it is invalid. The case now goes back to the circuit court to decide whether the program was terminated properly.

More important: The lower court also has to decide whether federal law's detention mandate for illegal border-crossers is really a mandate and whether DHS is violating the law by releasing most illegal aliens instead of detaining them...

Excerpt: Rest at headline link.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Bigun observed:
"As an overall matter, this court session has been a disaster for the Biden administration IMHO."

You are correct, of course.
But... the "Constitutional tilt" of the current Court is to be credited to two persons:
- Mitch McConnell, who prevented Garland from gaining a seat
and (OF COURSE)
- Mr. Trump, who picked the right nominees.

To steal a line from an old song regarding Mr. Trump's vision on this:
"... his truth is marching on."

Let's hope it holds up during the next few Court terms, as well.
There's much more yet to be done.

Didn't take long for Roberts to return to Squish status.

I heard this weekend that this case isn't over yet.

It goes back to the Texas court that made the initial ruling for the judge to decide on the three issues the SCOTUS didn't rule on...then most likely back to the 5th Court of Appeals...then back to the SCOTUS around 2023 in time for the next Presidential election.

Remain in place might...might be gone temporarily...but IMO it will be back thanks to a court injunction.
