    Just to reaffirm. This ruling is insanely dumb and absolutely hamstrings pretty much all federal enforcement in any domain (it is for a case specific to the EPA but it hurts the DEA, SEC, and DHS just as bad).

      SEC hurts because the SEC has been stepping up regulatory changes to increase transparency and fairness in an inherently unfair market (by design!). No surprise all of the big hedge fund terrorists like Ken Griffin donate almost exclusively to republicans. What a coincidence!!!
