Nobody is prepared for this jolt to the legal system. The Supreme Court has shifted an unfathomable amount of power from Congress and the executive brach toward unelected, unaccountable federal judges. This will fundamentally alter how government works. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Well if Congress wants to, they can take it away from the courts and give it back. They are the ones who gave the ultimate say over what courrs can and can’t decide on. Yeah, not gonna hold my breath, either.

Mark, I know the current Congress won't do this, but could a sane Congress (lulz), create a Chevron Law that would tilt the balance back?

I imagine there's soon going to be a lot of federal judges driving around in luxury cars and buying new vacation homes.

They are teeing up project 2025 Their goal is to remake the constitution to fit their christofacist ideology. With Trump as their King Women need to take notice- welcome to Gilead is not a joke

They’re turning the U.S. into an oligarchy that can manipulate and rule forever one giant step at a time. We’re now on step five or so (Shelby County & Citizens United were somewhere near the beginning of this anti democracy project).

OTOH most conservative judges weren't abiding by Chevron anyways. It's a shit ruling but actually might provide liberals with openings to knee cap any future Republican Admin and the Supreme Court

"This will fundamentally alter how government works." Beg to differ. It will create whole new ways by which government doesn't work.

Weren't the 'conservative' justices big fans of stare decisis? And they just overturned 100 years of freaking president with this one? And of 50yrs with overturning Roe?

How to 'we the people' appeal this?
Or do we just let the Cuyahoga and all the rest burn because no government agency is allowed to regulate industry? I've been in places where "water" is nothing but stinking sludge and that's just fine with the officials$$.

With zero checks. Congress passes the principles. Then has approval over budget & administration. Ghost buster judges deciding what ruling will get them the most support before (McDonald) & now, the biggest tip.

We are fucking doomed. The second insurrectionist coup began today and this right wing SCOTUS lit the match to our democracy to help the MAGAt GOP.

It's motte-and-bailey. They're conceding that they can't reliably hold the popularly elected offices any more; the courts are theirs for a generation, and there they will retreat.
