I'd like to know where the EPA gets the legitimate authority to ban anything.

U.S. Constitution

Article I

Section 1.

All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.

There’s a debate about whether Congress can delegate authority to a bureaucracy, as it has done here. Congress has the right to yank that authority away or banish the bureaucracy.

Exactly - I hardly see them as having any authority here.
