To any #MAGA yayhoo reading this, I want to write that when Donald Trump unilaterally used SCOTUS and also his office to turn the old style executive branch of the White House into a unitary executive branch he probably bit off more than he could chew. He is in there to grift the office of president or only make money with his title. He is the most transactional and greedy US President since President Warren Harding.
What I mean by unitary executive is that the future generations of America have a lot of damage to repair ON A BIPARTISAN LEVEL.
In fact, Trump ending (or rescinding) that EPA mandate which was there to curb pollution by blocking both the reporting and compliance measures EPA uses means that this could set a precedent with the courts to eventually not allow future Presidents to do such things.
...A future and much more liberal Supreme Court may appropriately revisit the EPA question and then give the EPA the ability to function on their own somehow, if we have a different and more parliamentarian or just better style of government in the rather distant future — where US Presidents could possibly be sacked (removed from office) with a simple majority vote in the US House of Representatives.
Did you know that it was President Richard Nixon who established the EPA during the 1970's? He was sort of pro-environment at the time. Not a lot, just a little. His actions were enough to establish the Environmental Protection Agency with their legal mandate to clean up corporate pollution and waste.
Seriously. Trump may have tipped the scales pretty hard. A future SCOTUS with a liberal majority also may one day revisit the Second Amendment if they're tired of your militias — MAGA.
We're all tired of you MAGA. We do miss the old-school liberal Republicans such as the late Sen. Mark O. #Hatfield from Oregon. He was an okay Republican senator from my state. He was there long before the philanderer Senator and Republican Bob Packwood. Senator Hatfield had no scandals, he did not attempt to ever "call out" the EPA's core mandate. He likely agreed with what the EPA did because Sen. Hatfield seemed to genuinely care about people and the process. Sen. Hatfield was just pure class from "the other side of the aisle" but not without his flaws, like everybody else.
