You're listening to comedy Central. The Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency does not have the authority to protect the environment, So what is their job? Now he's gonna look at the environments and be like, oh, ship, all right, that was a good dead work. You guys want to get some drinks. And by the way, I don't know if if it's the same for you. It's always weird to me how the news in America frames some of these stories. You know, like this is a
defeat for the Biden administration. It is a defeat for human life. I'm not gonna do a Biden. Do you realize if we don't get out of control, climate change is gonna wipe us off the planet? Right? And still these news anchors are gonna be underwater, like will the will the lawyers and sea levels hurt. The Democrats are a little help the Republicans in them the mental loans. And by the way, by the way, just so you understand, this ruling might not just be about the carbon emissions.
A lot of experts believe the logic of today's ruling makes it harder for the government to regulate anything unless Congress specifically passes a law to do it, because you see, right now, a lot of regulations are made by agencies like like the f d A. They will handle like food, you know, the CDC with public health, the br B with ignoring text messages, and and I know these agencies aren't perfect, don't get me wrong, but could you imagine
if Congress had to approve like vaccines. Imagine if you had to wait for them, it would have never happened. Which still will be locked in our houses clapping out of our windows because Congress couldn't convince Marjorie Taylor Green that needles weren't actually a space alien conspiracy. Then where did they come from? The one thing that's clear is that from environmental regulations to abortion, to guns, to school prayer to vote to rights, this is one of the
most radical super preame courts in American history. And by the way, people agree on that from across the political spectrum. You know, Rachel Maddow is like, this is so radical, and Sean Hannity is like, this is so radical. And they're also imposing their power on a country that for most part, for the most part, isn't on board with any of its right which is why many liberals are now calling for some major reforms, like adding more seats to the courts, or imposing term limits or setting up
a trap for britt Kavanaugh. The Daily Show with Trevor Noah ears editions. Subscribe to The Daily Show on YouTube for exclusive content, and stream full episodes anytime on Paramount Plus. This has been a Comedy Central podcast.
