Chevron is now overruled. The administrative state just died. The imperial judiciary joins the imperial presidency, relegating Congress to a secondary role except when it legislates with unrealistic specificity and foresight.

LOL... Roberts on overruling Chevron: "because agencies have no special competence in resolving statutory ambiguities. Courts do."
This is one of the dumbest collections of words in judicial history

This case, Chevron, is the reason so many rich people gave all those millions to Leonard Leo's Federalist Society for all those years.
Most of the rich donors didn't really cared about abortion. They cared about not being subject to environmental regs.

With the end of Chevron deference, the American federal judiciary has never aggrandized more power to itself than the Roberts Court. And it refuses to subject itself to any oversight by any other branch of government or the People.

Is it just coincidence that one campaign promise is to not tax gratuities?

Not only are bribes now legal, but they would also be untaxable? Good point.

It's time for the Democratic candidates to run openly on expanding the SCOTUS to 13.
We need a lot more than an expansion, we need ETHICS to be mandatory, no more GRATUITIES for services rendered, Justice shouldn't work that way.

Dismantling Chevron is the clear path to banning mifepristone. Among other things. All the ANY court has to do is overrule teh FDA that it's dangerous.

So the Supreme Court is pro-terrorist.
If it were up to me every last one of those people would be doing 20-life.

It's just going to embolden them to do it again when Trump loses and go much further since there's no real consequences
SCOTUS is (openly) holding back right now due to the upcoming election, once that's over all bets are off.

It's hard enough if you're sleeping in your car, now that's illegal? Well, potentially. And definitely, in some locales.

From Sotomayor's Grants Pass dissent:
"Sleep is a biological necessity, not a crime. For some people, sleeping outside is their only option. The City of Grants Pass jails and fines those people for sleeping anywhere in public at any time, including in their cars, if they use as little as a blanket to keep warm or a rolled-up shirt as a pillow. For people with no access to shelter, that punishes them for being homeless. That is unconscionable and unconstitutional."
