Game On
The Trump EPA starts the process to rescind the Endangerment Finding on CO2. Climate activists and Democrats better hope it never reaches this Supreme Court.

“So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong, and strike at what is weak.” - Sun Tzu

Shortly after his inauguration in 1981, Ronald Reagan nominated attorney and former member of the Colorado House of Representatives Anne Gorsuch to be Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). When the Senate unanimously confirmed her in May of that year, Gorsuch became the first woman to lead the agency.

Gorsuch set out to advance the Reagan agenda to reduce federal regulation and the size of government (sound familiar?). Her reign as EPA Administrator did not last long.

She quickly became embroiled in a variety of self-made controversies. Her effort to withhold cleanup funds under the new Superfund program from the Stringfellow Acid Pits site in California in order to hurt the Senate campaign of Democrat and former California Governor Jerry Brown was her ultimate undoing. As a result of the ensuing scandal, she became the first agency director in U.S. history to be cited for contempt of Congress. Gorsuch resigned in early March 1983 after 22 months in the role.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
