    I'm honestly shocked. Sure, at some point, if Roberts wants to reassert his chiefiness, he was going to have to buck Alito. But Kavanaugh is a total surprise.

    5 said they always overreach when they try to regulate something which I'm not versed enough to know what it is here. I know it has to do with what qualifies as a "water of the US," and 5 said the EPA categorically overreached here and all across the country. But I don't know exactly how. Something to do with adjacent vs adjoining waters, based on Kavanaugh's concurrence.

    The precedence of profit over people.

    Who needs clean air? Or water? Nixon was a moron for signing the EPA bill.
