I think the supreme court is going to reverse Chevron. Why???? Just because the Dems have been threating the court with annihilation.
Amy Coney Barrett is going to {inappropriate language} slap two female federal judges in northern Ill. on their gun rulings.
And it wasn't smart for Chuck Schumer to threaten the court. You don't threaten the guy that holds the key to the church, the government church that is.

We are living in unsettled times. And it's not going to be pretty.

Justice Gorsuch on COVID-19 and Emergency Government

(SNIP to section included)
We do not need to confront a bayonet, we need only a nudge, before we willingly abandon the nicety of requiring laws to be adopted by our legislative representatives and accept rule by decree. Along the way, we will accede to the loss of many cherished civil liberties—the right to worship freely, to debate public policy without censorship, to gather with friends and family, or simply to leave our homes. We may even cheer on those who ask us to disregard our normal lawmaking processes and forfeit our personal freedoms. Of course, this is no new story. Even the ancients warned that democracies can degenerate toward autocracy in the face of fear [citing Aristotle's Politics].

But maybe we have learned another lesson too. The concentration of power in the hands of so few may be efficient and sometimes popular. But it does not tend toward sound government. However wise one person or his advisors may be, that is no substitute for the wisdom of the whole of the American people that can be tapped in the legislative process.

Decisions produced by those who indulge no criticism are rarely as good as those produced after robust and uncensored debate. Decisions announced on the fly are rarely as wise as those that come after careful deliberation. Decisions made by a few often yield unintended consequences that may be avoided when more are consulted. Autocracies have always suffered these defects. Maybe, hopefully, we have relearned these lessons too.
The COVID reaction may have red pilled some SCOTUS naivety. Let us pray God would help Gorsuch convince his colleagues that Chevron (and the larger administrative state) needs to go.

In relation to the court issues there is this, hopefully explains some of the arguments as to how we got here so far.

"2A Champion" & WWE HoFer has plastic parts (Lego) ban overturned

Didn't have the stones to stand up to media after country concert shooting - then he shut down the global economy- killing thousands of small businesses and ushering in hyperinflation through modern monetary theory (look it up)

To say nothing of stripping people's Nuremberg medical rights and mandating an experiment ( for which he still takes credit).

But he beat Hillary. Got judges that will listen to C Thomas on occasion.

I heard someone say Trump is like holding a pair of fours in a poker game. NOT a great hand.

Biden is like holding 2-3-5-7-4 (offsuits)

The main difference between Trump and Biden is who they nominate for judges and justices. The press made a huge deal of saying "The supreme court ruled against Trump". Biden recently said the next president will likely get to nominate at least 2 SCOTUS justices and he is right on this one.

I'm sorry it's happening to you, I know they made some changes recently do deal with a DoS attack, and that's about when you started mentioning the issues. I've passed that along, but don't know what they can do about it. I don't know if anyone else is having the same problem or not, I've not had the problem so it's hard for me to help them figure out what we might be able to do to fix it.
