Is this more of the "federal agencies can't do anything not literally outlined in a law" shit? Because is that's the case I guess the FBI, CIA, NSA, INS, ICE, etc can't do nearly as much right?
Writing for the court, Justice Neil Gorsuch said the states are likely to win in the end, among the factors justifying the court’s decision to block the plan for now.
What? You didn't get to rule on a case solely based on your fucking betting pool.
You get to if you're one of the American Mullahs.
And I will keep calling them Mullahs when they can do whatever they want and everyone has to do what they say.

This is exactly how injunctions work. It's a combination of "how likely is the party asking for the injunction to win" and "how much damage will be done if the injunction is not granted". It's the same logic used to block abortion laws from going into effect and things like Trump's gag order being enforced, while those actual cases work their way through the courts.
“how much damage will be done if the injunction is not granted”
Seeing as how this prevents pollution, they clearly don't give a shit about this second part.
I don't disagree that their priorities are wrong, but this is not an aberration, this is the norm (and that norm should change)
