5 said the EPA always overreaches? Good Lord by what precedence is that opinion supported by?

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.

9-0 said the EPA overreached in this particular case. 5 said "The EPA overreaches whenever they try to regulate X," while 4 said, "The statute says the EPA can regulate X, this just isn't X."

What does that mean, to split the judgment and scope like that? Anything significant?

Less clean water = less ice-cold mountain beer for Kavanaugh?

Does he drink beer or something ;^)
