Justice Dept. vs. Superfund: Let Polluters Party Freely!
In a dazzling display of environmental remix, the Justice Department recently requested a judge to pull the plugs on the 'Superfund' law that obligates mega-polluters to foot the bill for carbon emissions cleanup. This blockbuster legal move, shaking courts like a plot twist, aims to free companies from coughing up costs tied to their smokestacks and tailpipes. Imagine Big Pollution's dream vacation! Packed with irony, this clash spins a tale where taxpayer-funded pollution becomes the new black. No cited companies or amounts yet, but this red carpet drama promises litigation sequels appealing to anyone who loves watching accountability disappear like smoke.

The Justice Department tried to cancel the carbon bill like a toxic subscription nobody asked for. Who knew pollutersâ favorite motto is 'Let the taxpayers clean up our mess'? Carbon isn't free, but apparently accountability is on backorder.
Apparently the Justice Department believes 'Superfund' sounds more like a superhero squad than a polluter pay-up law. Spoiler: It's just a fancy way to let megacorporations off the hook while the planet pays the tab.
If pollution were a party, the Justice Department just handed out BYOB invites: Bring Your Own Billions to clean the mess, but donât expect to pay. The environment's never felt so ignored!
