You're attracting downvotes, but I think you make a good point. It's a legitimate question to ask, why would the Air Force, which is very much under the control of the executive, be defiant in this case? I would expect the current administration to be supportive of the EPA. Is this some kind of political maneuver? I mean, the president is currently making the argument for SCOTUS reform, so this could be a way of making it look like a good idea.
