"science and expertise in government."

The author does not mention the politicalization of this "science and expertise in government", such as the premise that CO2 is a pollutant.

Moreso, the deafness of these so called government experts in dealing with their out of control regulations.

The liberal tears over this SCOTUS decision is very sweet.

Why is it that the more “green” the world becomes, the worse and more frequent the “climate change” events are?

“Opinion: The Supreme Court dealt a huge blow to our ability to fight climate change”

No, IT DID NOT cause a problem. All it did was require the EPA and other agencies to GO TO CONGRESS if they want to kick Americans out of their gasoline cars. Not a difficult thing to do as Congress will vote OVERWHELMINGLY for their plans, if the planet is about to burn up.

Hmmm, come to think of it, maybe it won’t be so easy for EPA.

When you hire someone to write regulations, that’s their job. Once the job is done, say, air quality is improved, then they have to keep on doing their job. They write regulations. Once everything has been optimized, they start writing regulations on what font to use in which applications and how many times workers can pee while on a government contract.

What the government should do, is hire a consultant to write whatever regulation. Once it’s done, terminate the contract. Don’t make them a public employee forever tasked with writing ever more elaborate and ridiculous regulations.

Since we know Climate Change, as hyped by our betters is a crock; I must assume that the writer is merely upset because The Supremes have drained some of the wind out of the cabal’s hotair ballon, thereby endangering his cozy schtick at CNN as a spokesperson for the fraud. And knowing that if common sense prevails and this “toxic CO2” charade falls apart, he’ll need to find something else to flack. JMHO.

“The Republican Party has opposed almost all environmental legislation since 1990.”

Interesting how he mentions 1990. I remember that well. So what happened in 1990?

It was the 20th anniversary of Earth Day, which is considered the beginning of the ‘Environmental Movement’. It was also the year that Communism was declared dead as about the only countries left actively pushing Communism were North Korea and Cuba (a few others still called themselves ‘Communist’, but had otherwise disowned it).

Well, that put Leftists in a bind, and back then I watch the news every night, and they made the biggest pivot I’ve ever seen in my life. They went, immediately, from attacking everything that the Republicans were doing to fight Communism (to the point of try to jail both Reagan and Bush Sr. for their parts in fighting Communism), to IMMEDIATELY telling us that the planet was doomed, unless we listened to same Americans who had been pushing Communism for most of the 20th Century. And it worked, they got Bush Sr. to sign the horrific laws that took advantage of the Chevron deference, particularly a renewal of the 1970 Clean Air Act (which was actually needed back then) - in 1990.

The problem, which became obvious during fights over Global Warming, was that the same Communists who were working with the Soviets to destroy the America from the outside (which is now documented), now moved their work to destroying America from the inside. And so here are.

In other words, the Supreme Court stuck a huge blow to lying by federal agencies.

” countless existing agency rules will be challenged in the courts — whose judges are no more democratically elected than agency staff members are, where technical expertise is no more present than in Congress and where many rules will eventually likely be shot down by the same justices who made this ruling.”

This seems to sum-up the claims of the Leftists. However, it falls flat when both Congress and the Courts can access and hire (as necessary) whatever experts they need. The argument is bogus.

But more philosophically, this decision is also upsetting because it represents a demotion of science and expertise in government.

Congress is still “government,” but this person thinks they don't know anything.

In the federal government, agencies are where detailed knowledge about specific, complex issues reside; in a healthy society, they would have some authority to manage those issues. In other words, the agencies are the ones that know stuff, and if government is to be effective, they should be able to do stuff.......

Kinda like what we saw during the pandemic?? No science behind masks, six feet, etc.
