Great news!

Great news!

There's more!

 City of Grants Pass v. Johnson, the court rules that “camping ban” laws restricting the homeless from sleeping on public property do not constitute “cruel and unusual punishment” and are therefore not prohibited by the Eighth Amendment.

The court overrules its 1984 decision in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, which held that courts should defer to an agency’s reasonable interpretation of an ambiguous statute. In Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, the court rules 6-3 that courts may not defer to an agency interpretation of the law simply because a statute is ambiguous.

And now an opinion from one who was thick in the middle of this regulatory/activist war, ......   about 40 years too late.   The EPA is full of enviro-whackos who will cling to their powers like Charlton Heston with his trusty rifle.

The damage is done.  40 years of precedence will never be un-done.

Supreme Court overturns Chevron decision, curtailing federal agencies' power in major shift

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/supreme-court-chevron-deference-power-of-federal-agencies/

Washington — The Supreme Court on Friday overturned a landmark 40-year-old decision that gave federal agencies broad regulatory power, upending their authority to issue regulations unless Congress has spoken clearly.

The court split along ideological lines in the dispute, with Chief Justice John Roberts writing for the conservative majority. Justices Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson were in dissent. Kagan read portions of her dissent from the bench.

Sadly predictable. The Prog 3's seeming-blind-faith in bureaucrats to not be activists, acting on personal pique, or corrupt is amazing, though not entirely surprising.

I think the tide is turning on the enviro-whacko faction and their agenda.  Roberts is the pivot point now whether there are hills the libs want to die on now.   The greeen agenda is slowly getting thrown under the bus.

🚨SUPREME COURT OVERRULES J6 CHARGE

Huge win for J6 protestors who were given felonies under a statute that didn’t apply to them

Now hundreds of J6 convictions need to be reversed

Humiliating for the Biden regime and DOJ

It is pretty strange that for the left big business is bad while big government is good. Generally, big anything turns bad. And I'll take the ones without the fines, guns and prisons to force me to comply with them...

When the Clean Air Act was reauthorized back in '90, the EPA imposed potential prison time for recordkeeping violations.  And folks like Plant Managers and we Environmental Managers lived in a state of paranoia of what could happen in a rogue EPA agent decided to take a personal vendetta. 

It got to the point, I was self documenting day to day conversations in response.  I knew of 5 of my colleagues with my exact same job in my company had Nervous Breakdowns. I have long known of the regulators who see the acts of compliance and enforcement as games to toy with their opponents.  Many of I hope burn in hell.

Will today's ruling fix all that?  I doubt it...  but its a start.

Gonna love the fallout from this one. Let the lawsuits begin - Cloward/Piven those jerkwads!

Been waiting for this for a long long time. The Rats always use bogus methods to subvert and circumvent the Constitution, then build an apparatus on that to enforce their dreams of dictatorship by strangling us with bogus govt.

Chevron was one of the worst, and a weak point in their construct. Reversing it brings the whole thing down. I look forward to seeing all the agency jackboot enforcement of imaginary interpretations of the law being brought to an end, and watching them scramble to somehow regain control.

Have faith. If there is a way around the Constitution, they'll find it; if there is a way to ignore this ruling, they will do that, too.

This decision is unlikely to have the sorts of far-reaching ramifications that its decriers have been wailing about.  For the most part, the courts will probably generally come to the conclusion that the agency's interpretation is sufficiently in line with the interpretation the court itself would have come to independently that the court will not disturb the agency's determination.

It will mostly have application in outlier cases where the agency's actions are clearly abusive or arbitrary.

That being said, it is also a good decision.

So the overall Democrat take on overturning Chevron is something along these lines:

"OMG!  SCOTUS has made it really hard for us to have a bazillion little laws and rules to control every aspects of other people's lives!  How will we survive?"

Exactly right Dems.  Exactly right.  It's glorious.

When OHSA unilaterally mandated that tens of millions of private sector workers take the COVID shot or wear masks, appellate courts cited the Chevron doctrine for allowing it

People don’t understand how important it is that Chevron deference is dead

Yes. It just created a million little cracks to exploit via the courts, I expect the ATF and EPA to suffer the most.

I have vetted new environmental regulations, where we came up with 15-20 different interpretations.  Pre-1990, the EPA was pretty cooperative on their tech hot lines on these matters.  Afterwards, outside anything simple, they asked that the inquiry be sent to General Counsel. 

I was and am convinced that the ambiguity put in these was intentional, just to give the agency flexibility and broad brushed enforcement powers to their advantage.

If I’m understanding correctly, the overarching message of the last two weeks has been that Donald Trump is set to become a dictator if he wins in November, but that, in spite of this, it’s just awful that the Supreme Court won’t let the executive branch run its own trials or impose criminal penalties without Congress, and it’s just great that the executive branch remains able to strip constitutional rights without due process and bully Facebook into moderating as it sees fit.

What kind of gets lost in this decison, is the amount of money (I am guessing $Trillions) that has been needlessly spent in regulatory control post the Chevron decison.  There was a point in about '88-'92 that there started being significant questioning of whether their was significantly deminishing environmental, health, and safety beneftis for the money spent.  Which btw, always was passed on to the consumer.

Government gone amok?  We all lose.

He's pointing out that is what the Democrats are saying - and they are. He's mocking them about their claims about the supreme court and constitutional rights in the same breath.

All right. I trust that you and @mountaineer have it right and my interpretation is wrong. I only had the snippet to go by.
