    I know the material is available for me to read so apologies. But can someone tell me what the FDA drug ban case was even about in the first place? Like who sued who and what was their standing? I know standing doesn't really matter because that whackjob judge is gonna do what he wants and conservatives judge shop to him specifically, but like I just haven't even heard the facts of the case.

    It was some doctors I believe and the standing issue seems to be a big point of contention.

    Same people who are bitching about this and waterways yet support running an oil pipeline in the Straits of Mackinac. Pure idiocracy.

    they legit have no standing, the judge is just indeed a whack job. Some doctors sued saying because they have to see/treat patients that suffer possible side effects of the drug, they are harmed

    Very good news

    EPA releases new emissions rules: 60% EV by 2030, saves US trillions

    https://electrek.co/2023/04/12/epa-releases-new-emissions-rule-60-ev-by-2030-saves-us-trillions/

    "The EPA calculated costs and benefits from the new rules and estimates that the benefits of the new standards would exceed costs by at least $1 trillion, potentially much more in optimistic scenarios. The average consumer will save $12,000 over the life of a vehicle, in addition to hundreds of billions of health and climate benefits and reduced dependence on foreign oil to the tune of tens of billions of barrels."

    Thanks!

    SMH. They really are just going full mask off. Can't say I'm surprised, it's just so farcical and bad.

    When I saw that Penicillin kills more people than that drug that told me all I needed.

    I would be floored if we get to 60% EV by 2030. If I had any sort of giant cash and could bet against it I would.

    Both California's and these rules are all going to get pushed back or modified. I just don't see ramping that fast for a variety of different reasons.

    Though is that based on new vehicles sold because that is a bit different. Not clear to me after reading that article but I think it is?

    I think it's mostly just new vehicles sold at that point

    Not hugely relevant, but Rob Dyrdek has always annoyed the absolute hell out of me, and reminds me of this any time I see / hear him on TV -->
