'Settled' Law

This is how it works: a left-wing organization sues a government agency that is also controlled by the left. The lawsuit alleges that the agency is obliged to do something that the agency would like to do, but the Democrats can’t get it passed. Then the parties–supposedly adverse, but actually in collusion–“settle” the case by having the agency agree to do what it wanted to do all along. [More]
By hook or by crook...

'Sue and Settle' is nothing new. It was used a lot during Obama's reign, when his appointees infested all of the land management and wildlife agencies. These apparatchiks, many of whom came from enviro organizations before being appointed, would settle suits brought by other enviro organizations. Mainstream media treated these settlements like they were completely above board when in reality they're just another Leftist scam.
