I think some would argue that the interpretation that the EPA was arguing for was itself an agency carrying out a Democratic/liberal doctrine that would (currently) be legislatively toxic.

(And possibly both these statements are true? And what should be done about it, if anything?)

Congress gave the EPA broad powers thst the Supreme Court has now second-guessed and taken away.

Our children will remember this Supreme Court as evil incarnate

I don’t know, I kind of doubt our children will care. We don’t generally refer to specific historical courts and their rulings as “evil” or anything else — we don’t talk about them or think about them at all. Despite the outsized impacts they might have had!

People will definitely care about the state of their world, but the idea that they will lay the blame at this court’s feet, or this administration’s, or this congress’s? They’ll blame the people they dislike. That’s about it.
