The EPA can't regulate because the legislative can't give its authority to the executive. Now let me explain why the executive's stance on immigration is wrong, actually - 4 people on the supreme court.

Why would they break up the union when they’re poised to have a stranglehold on all of government and they know the libs will grumble and whine and the kids will break some windows but that’s it?

Because the 17th is vague in its wording we today hold that North Carolina’s independent legislature has fairly interpreted the law when determining that the popular vote is merely an advisory vote that may be disregarded should the legislature choose to send a different representative to the senate

Whatever happens it'll probably be better for the world over that in a decade we'll be too busy doing bleeding kansas 2.0 at scale to afford the CIA assassinating any politician that wants to claim resource rights for their own country or JSOC advising local death squads on the best to murder union activists, maybe even suffer such severe economic decline that we can no longer be the number one contributor to climate change?

The idea is that they can only ignore the state courts for this particular issue. also this wouldn't imply that the supreme court couldn't overrule the state legislature, only the state courts
