I've talked to consultants and lawyers, and have yet to have one of them disagree that the Chevron deference decisions are the most consequential SC decisions in a century in terms of striking at the heart of the Deep/Administrative State. Yet, I have not heard ONE WORD about it from ANY 'media' since the day the decisions were announced including Faux News/Business. It almost seems as if the media thinks that if they don't talk about it, it didn't happen... Anybody have any thoughts on this? Is everyone waiting for 'the other shoe to drop'? Pray tell what that might be....

They don't want you knowing that all the 3 letter agencies have been neutered. ATF, IRS, DEA, etc have basically been declawed.
All it takes is a couple of good lawsuits and the whole thing will collapse.
This is an important point. Invalid agency regulations (i.e. they have no basis under the federal statute allegedly authorizing them) can only be overturned after being raised in a lawsuit. My speculation is that we will see a "self cleaning" of sorts. If the Aviation community is 100% happy with the current regs, no one is going to file lawsuits claiming FAA exceeded its statutory authority. Conversely, if parents and citizens think Dept of Education regulations exceed what Congress intended, expect (I hope) lots of lawsuits. Nothing will be overnight.
