I THINK ROLLING STONE MAY BE SLIGHTLY OVERREACTING TO THE SUPREME COURT’S EPA RULING:
Libs are mighty upset that the Supreme Court just delivered another conservative victory which would curtail the power of the EPA to just create its own regulations out of thin air, with no congressional approval.
SCOTUS rules the EPA can’t regulate national emissions and industry, effectively ending its unlimited power trip
As of today, the federal government can’t use the FDA to threaten businesses with closure if they don’t follow the demands of an unelected bureaucracy.
The decision basically takes power away from one of the alphabet agencies and empowers Congress to make actual laws. You know, the end of the world.
At least that’s what the uber-lefties over at Rolling Stone appear to actually believe.
Here’s a real thing they actually tweeted out:
The Supreme Court rules 6-3 that the planet should burn. https://t.co/PFkE8T4vZO

Umm, I think you might be overreacting just a tiny bit.
From the story:
The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that the Environmental Protection Agency cannot regulate how much climate pollution power plants emit under the Clean Air Act. The court ruled 6-3, along idealogical lines, with Chief Justice John Roberts writing the majority opinion.
“Capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to generate electricity may be a sensible ‘solution to the crisis of the day,” Roberts wrote. “But it is not plausible that Congress gave the EPA the authority to adopt on its own such a regulatory scheme … A decision of such magnitude and consequence rests with Congress itself, or an agency acting pursuant to a clear delegation from that representative body.”
Yep, if Congress has to make environmental policy instead of allowing the EPA to act as its own dictatorship then that means the world is literally going to burst into flames.
Where does the liberal media find these people?
The best thing to do is to laugh at this clown show:
Our planet is on fire, and this extremist Supreme Court has destroyed the federal government’s ability to fight back.
This radical Supreme Court is increasingly facing a legitimacy crisis, and we can't let them have the last word.
