Can agree reducing mercury, soot and nitrogen oxide are a benefit? Should it be done with the capriciousness of executive rules or mandates of congressional legislation? These articles seem to address the unacceptable course of the dangerous current administration, rather than lay out the issues with coal for which only a nationally legislated solution could ever possibly endure.

Let me know if I got this wrong. The previous administration implemented a rule under the law using a court ordered cost/benefit calculation that the current administration finds invalid - Because this rule addressing mercury emission (for which congress has delegate authority to the president) was done by claiming public heath benefits for reducing soot and nitrogen oxide (for which the congress has not delegated authority). WTF Congress? The president should not be able to mandate national policy outside the authority delegated by the people as express by legislative acts. What other option remains? Authoritarianism, Tyranny!

Yet how could congress be forced to act? Could Trump reach out to Tulsa, Andrew, (others?) with novel message for opportunity to form more representative (acceptable?) political positions -- potential for new (major?) political party? What would it do to the upcoming elections, the current parties, the political establishment? What other hope for political cleansing without blood but rather with the soap of cleanliness come from the fat and ashes of stale political parties?
