The Scheme 33: The Undoing of the Modern Regulatory State

July 11 | Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Courts Subcommittee, delivers the thirty-third in a series of speeches titled “The Scheme,” exposing the machinations by right-wing donor interests to capture the Supreme Court and achieve through the Court what they cannot through the elected branches of government.
Whitehouse break downs four recent Supreme Court decisions - Ohio v. EPA, SEC v. Jarkesy, Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, and Corner Post v. Federal Reserve - that are the latest in a line of rulings designed to gut the government’s ability to protect Americans from big polluters, corporate fraudsters, and self-interested employers. These decisions are part of an ongoing scheme by right-wing billionaires to capture and control the Supreme Court.

    Thank you Senator Whitehouse! I am a 74 yo Canadian woman and I watch American politics with a keen interest. I know that what happens in the US soon happens in Canada. The dismantling of regulatory law can be seen here everyday. Our Conservative government calls it "cutting red tape" to appeal to small businesses, but really is for big business and against the Canadian people. I have been made painfully aware of this over the past 10 years as predatory business practices have attacked the most economically disadvantaged Canadian citizens with loans structured like mortgages. Thank you for the work you do. "Shining your little light" needs to happen (even in sparsely populated rooms) and then over the internet. It illuminates the fact that there are many people with a paucity of empathy, love for themselves or others willing to destroy our world and for what? Nothing of true value. I pray we all wake up from the nightmare and live the lives we were meant to live in the paradise that could be our world. I think of the Robert Fulghum book, All I Really Need to Know I learned in Kindergarten, a must read/live for the bad actors in The Scheme. Bless you, Sheldon. You are a treasure. Love, Carolyn

    Where is our national medias reporting and outrage on this crucial information for our decision making ? Thank you Senator Whitehouse for communicating this to the people the best way you can. With the national media, we only get short little blurbs on this important issue every now and then if we’re lucky.
