1. Marc Elias

is so damn good at what he does! He's won a ton of cases, thwarting all kinds of ReThug attempts to stack the odds further against us.

Thanks, LMSP!

4. Except for one editorial, so far I have not seen any discussions (anywhere) about using the 2024 USSC decision in

Chevron to our advantage.

To summarize that decision, the USSC said that the courts would rule on changes to the Act (under which all environmental issues are based) when direct approval for the requested change is not clear or contained in the Act.

The editorial I read said that every change that Rs want to make about climate, etc., should be challenged on the basis that the requested change is not explicitly stated in the Act as originally passed by Congress.

At the very least, the destruction of Earth could delay R's attempts to pacify oil companies. At best, based on 2024 Chevron, Ds could sue over every existing change (modification) of the Act where the change (modification) of the Act violates Chevron.
