But even the 535 of them don't have the PHD level expertise. |
The judicial branch will need to hire a ton of policy experts to advise judges. One of the results of the fall of Chevron will be a big expansion of the judiciary branch's head court. |
Edit. |
Not true in many levels: 1. Judges are unelected elites. And they hold their position for life. Truly, they are more akin to American Royalists. --> Depends on the judge. Many local general judges are elected. Circuit and higher are appointed by the executive and consented by the electorate body. Administrative judges can be elected, appointed, or hired depending on the agency/locality. 2. Federal agencies are staffed by unelected individuals - that's true. But they are overseen by agency leaders that are appointed by the President. These leaders overturn when the voters elect a new President. The federal agencies are more responsive to electoral change than the Royal Unelected Judges. --> Most are kept in place. Usually only the Secretaries are replaced. 3. Federal agencies are required to issue for notice and comment any regulations they issue. This is required by the Administrative Procedures Act. Agencies must publicly address comment suggestions from the public. Further, agencies change regulations all the time in response to public comment. This is direct democracy in action - the public comments and the executive branch agencies must respond. Federal judges do not have to consider any public comments at all. No need to respond or use for deliberation. --> The public comments are frequently ignored. Just look at the ATF regulations for examples. |
The bolded is incorrect. It is the Secretaries and the senior leadership of every agency. It amounts to several thousands of appointments. |
Points addressed above. The PP leaves out a lot of nuance and plays off the public's ignorance as to how the federal government actually works. |
How so? Please explain. |
Bingo. I’ve seen this play out one too many times. So happy for this change. |
Of late, SCOTUS hasn't bothered to listen to any experts at all. It does not bode well. |
And wait til taxpayers start figuring out how they are being left holding the bag on corporate pollution and excesses - perfect example right here - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jun/28/colorado-oil-gas-well-cleanup |
Your “Experts” are part of the reason this country is a mess. |
Does this mean every IRS policy will be subject to the courts? |
Yep. |
