... which means that there are 3 Supreme Court justices who think that it’s ok for unelected bureaucrats to make law. They should have failed civics class: legislative power rests with the legislature, not with unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats.
True, the three liberals think it’s ok for unelected bureaucrats to make law. That sums it up well. The liberal mindset is that the bureaucracy has legislative powers. Thankfully we have a court which will chip away at that mindset.
... and that power would not be in the hands of un-elected bureaucrats if our lazy, overweight, fat-assed congress-critters would stop writing bills that contain verbage like “... the governing agency shall make and enforce any and all regulations that in their judgement are necessary to ... blah, blah ...”.
A bill should state the purpose of a bill and the limits to the purview which the agency can establish.
And finally every bill should have a ‘sunset’ clause of not more than ten years or so.

REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY
1. Lawmakers write a bill (a law) directing a new policy or policy change for the federal government, which can pass by majority vote (discounting the Senate filibuster).
2. President either signs the bill or vetoes the bill. If signed, then the Executive Branch must implement the intent of the bill.
3. If vetoed, then 2/3’s of House and 2/3’s of Senate must vote again to override, or the bill is dead.
4. Bottom Line: If the President wants a new law, he needs 50% of Congress to agree.
VIRTUAL DICTATORSHIP
1. Executive Branch determines that a law they want will not pass Congress.
2. Executive Branch implements the law they wanted anyway, using some pre-existing legislation as a pretext for justification.
3. Opponents of the new law go to court to try to block the law, due to the lack of due process.
4. Case is rejected by the courts, and opponents are told to pass a bill in Congress to negate the new law.
5. Bill (to negate law) passes Congress, but President vetoes it.
6. Congress must now come up with 2/3’s majorities in both chambers to override the law - which is virtually impossible due to the makeup of Congress.
7. We have a new law, dictated by the Executive Branch, and without Congress ever authorizing it.
If Skunk Cabbage had won in 2016, we would, easily, have been a Virtual Dictatorship by now, as the liberals on the court ALWAYS sided with the Virtual Dictatorship approach when it came to Democrat policies.
A lesbian, the “wise” Latina, and a leftist who is retiring to be replaced with a nomination based solely on race, gender and political bias....
And, you can count on Chief Justice Roberts to fall in with the left from time to time, too (ala ObamaCare IS a tax, and it is not.) Nominated by that W Bush idiot........ we shoulda seen him coming, but didn’t (or didn’t want to.) I fell for voting for him twice. Of that, I am sorely and penitently ashamed, frankly.
