The Environmental Protection Agency Issues Big Rules and Regulations on Carbon Emissions From Power Plants

It’s July 1st. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now.

------

First, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday that environmental regulators are not allowed to issue sweeping regulations due to climate change. Only Congress, they said, has that authority. We’re going to talk about that case, and why it’s really about who controls our lives.

As always, I’m keeping an eye out for developing stories. Put these two on your radar.

First, Monkeypox is spreading in the Congo. But not where it’s normally… found. And that is causing alarm. I’ve got the latest. 

Finally, China is trying to stop America from developing our own sources of rare earth metals. We’ll talk about what they’re up to and why. 

Plus, a quick word on Monday’s 4th of July podcast. It’s going to be pretty special.

All up next on the President's Daily Brief.
