Now those salmon fishermen (who didn't even have to pay the $700 fee to monitor their amount they catch that this lawsuit was about) can decimate their fishing spot and subject all of us to unsafe workplaces, dumping of chemicals into water supplies and pollution of the air we breathe.

This is so far beyond salmon fishing. This is going to weaken every executive agency we have severely. Congress is broken and they're never going to give piecemeal explicit authority to these agencies for comprehensive work. The EPA, the FTC, the FCC, the SEC, the ATF. They're all damaged and weakened by today's ruling and thus so is our environment, our economy, our utilities, and our regulations. This was the conservative wet dream ruling above almost any other this session. This was the Dobbs-style meat thrown to the educated, more lawful evil Republicans.

Please vote, so we can nominate justices to the Supreme Court. Please help us add another Sotomayor or Jackson instead of an Alito, Thomas, or at this rate, Cannon. Not feeling hopeful right now, but I have to ask.

Made up example.

The FAA was only legally allowed to regulate propeller based airplanes under 50 feet! The law never specified newer larger planes, or new technology like jet engines or helicopters! They didn't even exist when the law was made! None of their saftey rules apply to these vehicles!

It's going to be a real spectacle watching what happens to these agencies. This is going to open the floodgates for SCOTUS cases. They're gonna be mighty busy dismantling it all next year.
