    They break rules of precedent, originalism, modesty, even fact-finding, to get to the favored result.

    Good advice for the Court. But can the activists restrain themselves? So far, there’s little evidence of restraint where big Republican interests are involved.

    It’s one of many pieces to solve the puzzle, a nationally being the biggest and most vital.

    We can’t count entirely on this, but it could be a big part of the solution, and my capture bill getting passed into law gave the industry a BIG boost.

    My breakthrough bipartisan ocean plastics bill, recently signed into law by Trump, is a beachhead. Bipartisan Senate work—even an EPW hearing—on next steps has already begun. We know far too little ab what this does in our human food chain, for instance.

    The only responsible & legally correct thing for the to do is to withdraw this scientifically unsupported proposed rule. This is another example of how this agency bows down to the industries it’s supposed to regulate.

    Republicans & aren’t done gunning for the health care law & now they’re coming for & . They blew a $2T hole in the budget with their massive tax cut bill for the rich; now they want to take basic health care away from millions of Americans to pay for it.

    This excellent article is buttressed by an added point: the fossil fuel industry protects a massive subsidy ($700B/yr in U.S. per IMF). So there’s not a level economic field for ; they have to fight uphill against an entrenched incumbent.

    Happy talk is one thing. The test will be what he does about the 73-decision partisan romp his “Roberts 5” took the Court on, in service to big interests. That’s a little hard to explain as “balls and strikes.”

    Perhaps Roberts can then explain the 73 decisions in which he led the appointees to deliver 5-4 partisan victories serving powerful R interests. 73 is a lot. The pattern is damning. Talking about independence doesn’t cut it, not w that record.

    talked about joining a “team of nine.” In fact, he joins a team of five that reliably delivers big wins for the interests that had such a big role in his selection and confirmation.

    Legal acts done to obstruct justice, for instance, are still obstruction, with “corrupt intent.”

    I understand why doesn’t want his fellow Trumpkins to answer questions under oath, but it’s just legally wrong to say intent doesn’t matter in an act by govt officials.

    Add in Big Oil execs saying they support a price on carbon, while Big Oil spends millions to defeat the only carbon price on the ballot, and you see what I mean about lies. It’s like they’ve been lying and denying so long they can’t help themselves.
