"Supreme Court's Phony Case: Uncovered"

The cases involve a defunct program, but conservative legal activists seized on them to challenge Chevron deference. The Court's focus on this issue, rather than the original statutory interpretation question, has raised concerns about the justices' agenda and the potential impact on federal agency authority.
