    Ok, here’s a crazy idea. We dissolve tribal lands in Oklahoma all together. Every native tribe member there gets to move back to their ancestral land. They can each take any one home or property of their choosing in their region. They can choose how to occupy it. Option a: the feds force out the owners and relocate them to a shitlhole in OK. Option b: the feds arm the native and a small group of friends to the teeth and let them raid it. Whatever happens, happens. Then they get a stipend of the median income for life. From here forward they live under the local jurisdictional roll-up.

    It should be like this everywhere, all the time, and dems that give a fuck and wish to be taken seriously should be endorsing it at every opportunity. No public life for these abhorrent monsters. None.

    EPA case is a classic Roberts minimally bad decision, looks like Chevron survives although this stupid standardless major questions doctrine isn’t great

    mainly that the word “may” in a statute doesn’t mean “must,” particularly when reading it as “must” means making the Executive has to choose between violating the law or giving Mexico whatever it asks for in exchange for helping the Executive not violate the law.

    Appreciate the response. Belies a significant misunderstanding of what tribal lands are though. They aren’t part of the state of Oklahoma. Kind of the whole point of our country’s weak attempt to wash away genocide with giving people small slivers of their own land back.

    Excited to hear what part of the founder’s writings the Major Questions Doctrine is divined from by our Originalist overlords.

    You’re so right about Robert’s that his need to “call balls and strikes” (at least on cases where he can’t make it hard for black peoples to vote) makes these unintelligible baby splitting decisions that leave as many questions as answers.

    I mean, international, given that climate change is a global issue.

    Just like the Roe case, the Clean Air Act needed to be updated and strengthened, but the Democrats dithered for 40 years so as to protect fossil fuel state politicians.

    Roberts let EPA live, but significantly weakened its ability to regulate climate warming emissions. There are additional cases in the pipeline that will undoubtedly further weaken the Federal government's ability to do anything to throttle the biggest (or 1b to nuclear weapon's 1a) existential threat to the life on this planet.

    In August 2021, New York mandated that all healthcare workers receive a COVID–19 vaccine. See 10 N. Y. Admin. Code §2.61 (2021). It did so to “stop the spread” of the then prevailing Delta variant of the COVID–19 virus.


    great stuff putting "stop the spread" in quotations, Clarence

    There was no question the court would strike down EPA’s authority to regulate carbon once it took the case; there was no other reason for it to take the case. It could have done so in ways that would have been way more destructive to EPA and every other regulatory agency, but didn’t. So it’s the least bad decision we could have gotten knowing the outcome was going to be a bar on EPA’s non-existent regulation.
